A reflector and of a holding-plate slidingly attach to each other to form a flangeless trim assembly. The reflector may be removably attached to a spackle-frame. The spackle-frame may be installed within ceiling drywall around a hole for a downlight. The holding-plate may be attached to a lighting module. In a default resting configuration, a top of the reflector butts up against a bottom of the holding-plate because springs push these two parts towards each other. When an opposing force is applied that is greater than the spring's force, then a variable gap is formed between the reflector and the holding-plate, but while the reflector and the holding-plate are still attached to each other. This gap may be used by human finger(s) to both disengage the reflector from the spackle-frame and to pull down the reflector, the holding-plate, and the lighting module from the spackle-frame—all without tools.

An overall-assembly of a downlight, with a flangeless trim, and a spackle-frame have complementary structures for repeatably attaching or detaching the downlight to the spackle-frame merely by pushing the downlight into a central hole of the spackle-frame and without use of any external / separate tools. The flangeless trim has some upward protruding members that are configured to removably attached / detached to clips and housings-for-clips. The clips are housed within the housings-for-clips. And the clips and the housings-for-clips are retained in structures of the spackle-frame. The spackle-frame would typically be permanently installed within an appropriately sized hole in drywall (or the like), such as, but not limited to, ceiling drywall. In this way, such downlights may be readily installed or removed and all without use of external / separate tools.

A reflector array includes a support structure, a motor, a shaft operatively coupled to the motor, a free plate, and a drive plate. The free plate includes a free plate first side and a free plate second side axially opposed to the free plate first side. The free plate further may include a latching mechanism disposed on the free plate second side and a drive plate. The drive plate is rotatably coupled to the shaft. The drive plate includes a drive plate first side and a drive plate second side axially opposed to the drive plate first side. The drive plate further includes a drive plate finger coupled to the drive plate second side. The drive plate finger is configured to contact the latching mechanism in response to rotation of the driver plate. The drive plate finger is further configured to couple the drive plate to the free plate.

The present disclosure discloses an optical element and a light distributing module. The optical element includes an optical element body provided with a light incident surface and a light emergent surface; the optical element body is provided with a second reflective surface peripherally arranged along the light emergent surface; the second reflective surface and the light emergent surface form a cavity, and a light source is arranged in the cavity; the light incident surface is attached to a top of the light source; and along a diameter direction of the light emergent surface, the light emergent surface includes a first transparent surface, a frosted surface, and a second transparent surface, which are connected in sequence. The light distributing module includes: the above-mentioned optical element and a reflector; and along a direction away from the light emergent surface, one end of the reflector is connected with the light emergent surface.

A backlight module comprises a back plate, a reflective sheet arranged on the back plate and forming a plurality of openings, a plurality of light-emitting elements located in the plurality of openings, at least one optical element arranged on the reflective sheet, and at least a supporting element configured between the back plate and the reflective sheet. The supporting element can move along with the reflective sheet. The supporting element has a base portion and a supporting portion extending from the base portion towards the optical element. The base portion of the supporting element is located between the back plate and the reflective sheet. The supporting portion of the supporting element passes through the reflective sheet to support the optical element. The supporting element is not a fixed design and can move along with the reflective sheet. Therefore, other plates under the reflective sheet do not require openings, which can improve assembly convenience and effectively reduce the mechanism interference caused by the expansion and contraction of the reflective sheet. The invention also provides a display device including the backlight module.

The present disclosure is directed to examples of an apparatus. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a light entry segment that receives light emitted from a light emitting diode (LED), a total internal reflection (TIR) segment to reflect the light emitted from the light emitting diode towards an optical axis of the LED, and a light redirection segment to redirect the light emitted from the light emitting diode and the light reflected by the TIR segment at an angle greater than 45 degrees relative to the optical axis of the LED and greater than 90 degrees along a horizontal axis.

A lighting device, which may be used e.g. to produce motor vehicle lamps, may include a light radiation source, e.g. a LED source, having a light-permeable body arranged facing source for propagating light radiation along a longitudinal axis. The light-permeable body includes a collimator exposed to light radiation source and adapted to collect light radiation and to inject it into light-permeable body, a tapered portion coupled to collimator for receiving light radiation and directing it towards an output end, a distal portion acting as an emission filament, coupled to the output end of tapered portion, with an output mirror having a shank portion extending in said distal portion and a head portion, the output mirror reflecting light radiation radially from longitudinal axis and proximally towards said light radiation source.

An optical element for transmission of light produced by a solid state emitter includes at least one diffuser element, and a reflector supported by the at least one diffuser element and paced-apart from the emitter, the reflector defining an annular lip having an aperture therein and an axis normal to a plane defined by the aperture. The reflector further includes a first frustoconical surface coupled with the annular lip and angling outwardly in a first direction at a first angle relative to the axis, a second frustoconical surface coupled to the first frustoconical surface and angled outwardly at a second angle in a second direction opposite to the first direction, and a third surface coupled with the second frustoconical surface and angling outwardly at a third angle.

A lighting system and method electrically control optics of light generated by a light source. The light source generates a light defined by a light distribution. An electro-active optical component changes the light distribution responsive to a change in an electric potential applied across the electro-active optical component by an electronic control system.

According to at least one aspect, a lighting device is provided. The lighting device comprises a circuit board, an LED mounted to the circuit board that is configured to emit light with an angular CCT deviation, a lens assembly mounted to the circuit board over the LED and configured to receive the light emitted from the LED and reduce the angular CCT deviation of the light received from the LED to make a color temperature of the light received from the LED more uniform, and an elastomer encapsulating at least part of the circuit board that is separate and distinct from the lens assembly.
