One non-limiting example of an LED system for a lighting assembly includes a heat sink having a plurality of base plates. Each of the base plates has a pair of opposing edges disposed adjacent to a corresponding one of the other base plates. Additionally, each base plate has an outer face extending between the opposing edges; and the LED system further includes a plurality of LEDs attached to the outer face of each base plate. A fan is releasably attached to a bottom portion of the heat sink and configured to produce a flow of air through the heat sink from the bottom portion through a top portion of the heat sink to maintain an operating temperature of the LED system.

A veterinary lighting apparatus comprising: a heat sink on which are supported a plurality of LEDs for emitting light radiation, wherein the plurality of LEDs comprises at least one white light LED-emitter; at least one blue light LED-emitter; and at least one red light LED-emitter; and an activation means to switch on one or more of the white and/or blue and/or red light LED-emitters.

A light fixture includes a heat dissipating structure, an electronics assembly, and a bolt for attaching the heat dissipating structure to an external panel. The heat dissipating structure includes a first side having multiple outwardly extending projection regions and a socket, for receiving a light source, is formed in an apex of each projection region. A second side of the heat dissipating structure includes a heat sink formed in an internal cavity of each projection region. The heat sink includes fins in contact with and radially arranged about an outer surface of the socket. The electronics assembly is located at the first side of the heat dissipating structure. The bolt includes a passage through which wiring from an external source is routed to the electronics assembly. The electronics assembly includes wires routed through channels in each of the projection regions that electrically interconnect the light sources to the electronics assembly.

A light emitting diode (LED) module is in thermal communication with front and back heat sinks for dissipation of heat therefrom. The LED module is physically held in place with at least the back heat sink. A mounting ring and locking ring can also be used to hold the LED module in place and in thermal communication with the back heat sink. Key pins and key holes are used to prevent using a high power LED module with a back heat sink having insufficient heat dissipation capabilities required for the high power LED module. The key pins and key holes allow lower heat generating (power) LED modules to be used with higher heat dissipating heat sinks, but higher heat generating (power) LED modules cannot be used with lower heat dissipating heat sinks.

A system of networked lighting devices includes a central controller and a group of lighting devices. Each lighting device may include a fixture controller, one or more lighting modules, and a communication interface. The central controller receives data packets and send them to the lighting devices via a ring topology. The lighting devices may be connected to each other via the ring topology, or a set of routers may be connected in the ring topology, with each router controlling one or more connected lighting devices. The central controller and/or the fixture controllers may each translate data packets from one protocol to a different protocol. The different protocol may be a protocol that is compatible with the local system of networked devices, and/or a protocol that is compatible with the lighting device(s) that will use the data packets to actuate according to a command from the central controller.
