A lighting fixture, including a bus printed circuit board that receives power from an external source, may be configured with programmable drivers. The bus printed circuit board has mechanical features for receiving the programmable drivers to mechanically mount the programmable driver to the bus printed circuit board. Each programmable driver may have a set of spring contacts positioned to engage exposed pads of the bus printed circuit board when the programmable driver is mounted to the bus printed circuit board, to supply power to the programmable driver. The lighting fixture further includes one or more light sources driven by the programmable drivers.

Methods for configuring light fixtures with programmable drivers

A lighting fixture includes a bus printed circuit board that receives power from an external source. The bus printed circuit board has traces that route the power to a set of exposed pads, and also has mechanical features for receiving an electronic device. The lighting fixture further includes a set of one or more drivers, having mechanical features for engaging the mechanical features of the bus printed circuit board to mechanically mount the driver to the bus printed circuit board. Each of the set of one or more drivers further includes a set of spring contacts positioned to engage at least some of the exposed pads of the bus printed circuit board when the driver is mounted to the bus printed circuit board, to supply power to the driver. The lighting fixture further includes one or more light sources driven by the one or more drivers.

Interconnection system for lighting fixtures

A lighting system includes first and second component housed within respective first and second housings, and a connector. The first housing defines a first substantially rectangular cross-section that extends from a first end to a second end. The first component is capable of emitting light. The second housing defines a second substantially rectangular cross-section. The second substantially rectangular cross-section extends from a third end to a fourth end. The connector connects the second end with the third end. The connector defines a third substantially rectangular cross-section that is substantially identical to the first and second substantially rectangular cross-sections. The third substantially rectangular cross-section extends along a path from the second end to the third end. The path includes at least one curve of at least fifteen degrees between the second end and the third end, and/or, the substantially rectangular cross-section rotates at least fifteen degrees about the path.

Lighting system with curving or twisting modular housing

Disclosed herein are induction heating articles and vessels and methods for applying insulating coatings thereto. In one aspect, an induction heating vessel of the present invention includes a ferromagnetic substrate and an insulating coating layer attached to the substrate, the insulating coating layer being characterized by a thermal conductivity of less than about 1.0 W/mK and a Shore A hardness of less than about 70.

Inductive heating vessels and methods of making and using same

A light fixture that can be built upon itself to scale up or down the lumen output. More specifically, embodiments of the light fixture include an electronic housing flanked on each side with one or more light modules. The fixture can be tailored to the light needs of particular applications by adding or removing light modules from the fixture.
