DETAILED DESCRIPTION

(5) The present invention will be fully described in the following exemplary embodiment by reference to the appended drawings so that the technical solution, object and effects of the present invention will be better understood.

(6) FIG. 1 is an exploded perspective view of an LED lighting fixture of the present invention. As shown in FIG. 1, there is provided an LED lighting fixture 100, comprising: a lens 10 configured to concentrate light from a light source and project a concentrated light beam; an LED module 20 comprising a controller (not shown) and a plurality of LED lamps (not shown) arranged in a geometric pattern, the controller being configured to control variation in luminous intensity of the plurality of LED lamps; a solar module 30 configured to receive the concentrated light beam projected by the lens 10 and convert the received light energy to electricity to actuate the LED module 20; and a lamp shade 40 with an uneven surface; wherein the controller controls variation in luminous intensity of the plurality of LED lamps and causes light emitted from the plurality of LED lamps to be casted upon the uneven surface which, in collaboration with the geometric pattern of the plurality of LED lamps, creates a variety of lighting effects through refraction.

(7) Referring to FIG. 1, the LED lighting fixture 100 of the present invention further comprises a hood 50, a housing 60, a light-reflecting tube 70 and a stand 80. The hood 50 is structurally tapered and defines an opening 51 at a top end thereof for receiving the lens 10; the housing 60 comprises a cover 61, which is structurally tapered and defines an opening at a top end thereof for receiving the solar module 30, and a main body 62, which comprises a cross bar 63 at a bottom end thereof; the LED module 20 is disposed under and electrically connected to the solar module 30; the lamp shade 40 covers the LED module 20 and disposed within the main body 62; the light-reflecting tube 70 is disposed on the cross bar 63 of the main body 62.

(8) In this embodiment, the controller is configured to control variation in luminous intensity and luminance distribution of the plurality of LED lamps. The geometric pattern in which the plurality of LED lamps are arranged can be any geometric pattern, such as a triangular pattern, a circular pattern, a linear pattern or a parallel alternating pattern, as shown in FIGS. 2A-2D, thereby enhancing the lighting effects. Moreover, the surface of the lamp shade 40 can have any pattern, such as a decorative pattern, a regular pattern or an irregular pattern, thereby creating a variety of lighting effects. In addition, in this embodiment, both the housing 60 and the lamp shade 40 are made of transparent materials, and the light-reflecting tube 70 is made of a light-reflecting material, thus the light emitted from the plurality of LED lamps 21 can be reflected in a direction toward the lamp shade 40. Consequently, the LED lighting fixture 100 of the present invention has a wider range of illumination.

(9) Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 3, a perspective assembly view of the LED lighting fixture of the present invention. The lens 10 is placed on and secured to the opening 51 of the hood 50, and the solar module 30 is secured to the opening of the cover 61. The other end of the hood 50 opposite to the opening 51 is engaged with the solar module 30 through a securing member (not shown) such that the hood 50 is disposed above the cover 61 and the LED module 20 is disposed under and electrically connected to the solar module 30. The lamp shade 40 covers the LED module 20 such that the lamp shade 40 is in a downward orientation. The cover 61 is engaged with the main body 62 such that the LED module 20 and the lamp shade 40 are disposed within the housing 60. In addition, the light-reflecting tube 70 is disposed on the cross bar 63 of the main body 62 and secured to the stand 80 through a locking member (not shown), thereby accomplishing the assembly of the LED lighting fixture 100.

(10) The LED lighting fixture of the present invention utilizes a controller to control variation in luminous intensity of a plurality of LED lamps arranged in a geometric pattern and, in collaboration with an irregular or uneven surface of a lamp shade, creates a variety of lighting effects through refraction, thereby illuminating the lawn and embellishing the landscape.

(11) The embodiment described above is exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. It is to be noted that those skilled in the art can make a number of changes and modifications without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and that such changes and modifications shall be within the scope of protection of the present invention.
