Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The LED plug-in outlet or DC power light has LED-unit(s) to offer one or more than one near-by lighted-location(s) with preferred adjustable angle constriction and each of said LED-unit(s) has built-in plurality of the said dip or chip or dice or COB LED(s) to emit directly or in-directly LED light-beam from big surface of the said each of LED-unit(s) to supply consumer for one LED light offer one or more than one near-by lighted locations for desired or selected-functions, light color(s), brightness(s), light performance(s) while incorporate with circuitry, AC-to-DC circuit, IC, and control device select from sensor, motion sensor, photo sensor, sound sensor, power fail circuit, switch, wireless controller with APP software to make setting or adjustment or selection to make the LED light to turn-on/off, fade-in and fade-out, high-low brightness, motion or non-motion selection, change functions from variety pre-programed functions to offer near-by locations which is less than 30 feet and brightness is less than 100 CD from each of the said LED unit(s).

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light, comprising: a main housing; at least one side, top, or bottom pivotal light housing that is directly and pivotally connected to the main housing by pivot members included in the main housing or extending from the main housing to the pivotal light housing; a first LED unit including a first LED positioned in and fixed to the main housing; and a second LED unit including a second LED positioned in and fixed to the at least one pivotal housing, whereby the first LED fixed to the main housing is not movable relative to the main housing, and whereby the second LED fixed to the pivotal housing is movable relative to the main housing, wherein at least one of the first LED unit or the second LED unit is a COB light unit, wherein the COB night light is connected with an AC power source by built-in prongs, an AC-to-DC circuit and a controller, to trigger or control the at least one COB light source to provide desired light functions for indoor or outdoor applications, and wherein the prongs fixedly extend from the main housing. 2. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the first LED unit and the second LED unit is a COB light unit. 3. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the COB night light includes parts selected from a (1) sensor, (2) motion sensor, (3) photo sensor, (4) vibration sensor, (5) heat sensor, (6) power fail detector; to trigger the at least one COB light source to provide the desired light functions. 4. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the COB night light has at least one function selected from: (i) a color changing function; (ii) a change function to change between (ii-1) motion sensor and non-motion sensor, or (ii-2) high and low brightness; (iii) a dimmer or adjustable light brightness function; (iv) a power fail, emergency, or evacuation function; (v) a motion sensor and/or photosensor function; (vi) a light performance function selected from (a) chasing, (b) fade-in and fade-out, (c) auto color changing, (d) sequential, (e) sound-activating, and (f) party light functions; (vii) a function controlled by at least one part selected from (1) an integrated circuit, (2) a wireless system, and (3) wireless connection selected from Z-way, ZigBee, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, with a downloaded app. 5. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light, comprising: a first COB unit including a COB light source having a plurality of chip or dice LEDs directly sealed within a coating material; a main housing in which the first COB unit is fixed and which includes a battery or from which AC prongs extend; and at least one separate side, top, or bottom pivotal housing that is directly and pivotally connected to the main housing by pivot members included in the main housing or extending from the main housing to the pivotal housing, and to which a built-in LED unit having at least one LED, or a second COB unit, is fixed, whereby the first COB fixed to the main housing is not movable relative to the main housing, and whereby the built-in LED unit or the second COB unit fixed to the pivotal housing is movable relative to the main housing. 6. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 5 , wherein each of the main housing and the separate side, top, or bottom light each includes at least one said COB light source, and each said COB light source is configured to be activated by a photo sensor and motion sensor to emit light to one or more areas, wherein the night light is further configured enable adjustment of parts or a housing to (1) adjust or change an illumination direction or area, or (2) rotate or adjust an angle of prongs. 7. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 5 , wherein (a) the main housing, and (b) the separate side, top, or bottom light unit, each has a COB unit or at least one LED having light functions selected from (1) a motion sensor light, (2) a dimmable light, (3) a high-low brightness light, (4) a wireless, IR, RF, or Wi-Fi control light, (5) a power fail light. 8. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 5 , wherein at least one of (1) the main housing and (2) the separate top, bottom, or side light unit is incorporated with an integrated circuit and has a function selected from: (i) a color changing function; (ii) a change function to change between (ii-1) motion sensor and non-motion sensor, or (ii-2) high and low brightness; (iii) a dimmer or adjustable light brightness function; (iv) a power fail, emergency, or evacuation function or illumination; (v) a motion sensor and/or photosensor function; (vi) a light performance function selected from (a) chasing, (b) fade-in and fade-out, (c) auto color changing, (d) sequential, (e) sound-activating, and (f) party light functions; (vii) a function controlled by one of (1) an integrated circuit, (2) a wireless system, and (3) wireless connection selected from Z-way, ZigBee, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, with a downloaded app. 9. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 5 , wherein each of the main housing and the separate side, top, or bottom light unit has a built- in camera system to capture photo, image, video, and or audio digital data. 10. A plug-in chip on board (COB) night light as claimed in claim 5 , wherein more than one said main housing or separate side, top, or bottom light unit has a USB charger function and/or a USB power bank function through a USB port to (1) supply DC to other products, and/or (2) input the DC power to the COB night light.
