Abstract

A luminaire includes a front housing having an interior portion and a back wall. A rear housing having a front opening is connected to the front housing. A gasket is positioned between the front housing and the rear housing to seal the front opening.

First claim

What is claimed:

1. A luminaire comprising:
a front housing having a first interior portion at least partially defined by a first outer wall and a first back wall;
a rear housing having a second interior portion at least partially defined by a second outer wall, a second back wall, and a front opening the first back wall separates the first interior portion from the second interior portion;
a gasket positioned between the front housing and the rear housing to seal the front opening;
an outer reflector positioned in the interior portion of the front housing and extending at least partially between the back wall and the front opening, wherein the outer reflector includes a mounting feature; and
an inner reflector positioned inside of the outer reflector, wherein the inner reflector has a base connected to the mounting feature,
wherein the rear housing is connected to the front housing and the first back wall separates the first interior portion from the second interior portion.

2. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the front housing includes a first heat fin and the rear housing includes a second heat fin.

3. The luminaire of claim 2 , wherein the first and second heat fins extend from an outer surface of the respective outer walls.

4. The luminaire of claim 3 , wherein the first and second heat fins are aligned.

5. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein a LED module is positioned in the front housing and a control component is positioned in the rear housing.

6. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the gasket includes an outer edge approximately aligned with a front housing outer edge and a rear housing outer edge.

7. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the gasket includes a first flange contacting the front housing and a second flange contacting to the rear housing.

8. A luminaire comprising:
a front housing having a first interior portion at least partially defined by a first outer wall, a first front opening, and a first back wall opposite the first front opening;
a rear housing having a second interior portion at least partially defined by a second outer wall, a second front opening, and a second back wall opposite the second front opening;
a control component positioned in the rear housing and separated from the front housing by the first back wall;
a light emitter positioned in the front housing to emit light through the first front opening and operably connected to the control component;
an outer reflector positioned in the interior portion of the front housing and extending at least partially between the back wall and the front opening, wherein the outer reflector includes a mounting feature; and
an inner reflector positioned inside of the outer reflector, wherein the inner reflector has a base connected to the mounting feature.

9. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein the first back wall includes a conductor opening and a conductor passes through the conductor opening to connect the light emitter to the control component.

10. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein the rear housing includes a plurality of heat fins extending from an inside surface into the rear housing.

11. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein the front housing includes a first set of heat fins extending from an outer surface and the rear housing includes a second set of heat fins extending from an outer surface and aligned with the first set of heat fins.

12. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein the front housing includes a first set of fastener bosses and the rear housing includes a second set of fastener bosses aligned with the first set of fastener bosses.

13. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein a gasket is positioned between the front housing and the rear housing.

14. A luminaire comprising:
a front housing having an interior portion at least partially defined by an outer wall, a front opening, and a back wall opposite the first front opening;
an outer reflector positioned in the interior portion of the front housing and extending at least partially between the back wall and the front opening;
an inner reflector connected to the outer reflector and positioned inside of the outer reflector; and
a rear housing connected to the front housing,
wherein the outer reflector includes a mounting feature and the inner reflector includes a base connected to the mounting feature.

15. The luminaire of claim 14 , wherein the mounting feature includes a protrusion having a flange.

16. The luminaire of claim 15 , wherein the base is crimped to the flange.

17. The luminaire of claim 14 , wherein the mounting feature extends from the back wall of the front housing that at least partially separates the front housing from the back housing.
