Abstract

The pendent style luminaire split design incorporates generally a housing split into sections, a first section of the housing is attached to the top member located at the mounting arm while the second section of the housing is attached to the lens frame. The second section swings about a hinge between the first section and the lens frame. In the open position of the luminaire, the design allows for the convenience of "hands free" maintenance of both the lamp and the electrical component assembly of the luminaire at the same time. A sealed optical chamber is created, since neither the lens nor lens frame is needed to be separated from the reflector to gain access to the lamp.

Claims (18)

  1. Claim 1. A pendent style luminaire comprising:

    a housing separating into a first member and a second member along a substantially vertical line above a lens; whereby a hinged connection permits rotational movement of said first member relative to said second member.
  2. Claim 2. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 1 further comprising an annular lens frame extending partially outward from said first member and supporting a reflector and said lens.
  3. Claim 3. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 2 wherein said hinged connection is positioned between said annular lens frame and said second member.
  4. Claim 4. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 2 wherein said hinged connection is affixed to said lens frame in a substantially opposing position to said first member.
  5. Claim 5. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 2 wherein said reflector has an aperture being dimension to receive a lamp module.
  6. Claim 6. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 1 further comprising an open configuration wherein a lamp module and an electrical component assembly are accessible within said housing.
  7. Claim 7. The pendent style luminaire as in claim I wherein said first member is releasably affixed to said second member by a manual latch.
  8. Claim 8. A pendent style luminaire comprising:

    a split housing having a first portion and a second portion hingedly connected and separated by a line of demarcation, wherein said line of demarcation
  9. 9 extends from adjacent an upper end of said housing to adjacent a lower end of said housing; and said second portion of said housing including a lens and a reflector.
    Claim 9. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 wherein said second portion comprises a sealed optical chamber.
  10. Claim 10. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 further comprising an electrical component assembly affixed to an interior surface of said first portion.
  11. Claim 11. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 wherein said line of demarcation is substantially vertical above said lens.
  12. Claim 12. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 wherein said line of demarcation is substantially S-shaped in cross section.
  13. Claim 13. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 wherein said second portion comprises a lens frame having a top end and a bottom end, said lens disposed over an opening of said bottom end of said lens frame and said reflector extending from said top end of said lens frame.
  14. Claim 14. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 further comprising a manual latch releasably affixing said second portion to said first portion to allow said split housing to be rotated between an open and a closed configuration.
  15. Claim 15. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 14 further comprising a lamp module and an electrical component assembly within said housing accessible in said open configuration.
  16. Claim 16. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 8 wherein a hinged connection is positioned adjacent said lower end of said first portion.
  17. Claim 17. A pendent style luminaire split design comprising:

    a housing positioned above a lens; and means for splitting said housing into a first member and a second member.
  18. Claim 18. The pendent style luminaire as in claim 17 wherein said means is a substantially vertical line above said lens allowing said housing to be rotated between an open configuration and a closed configuration.
