Abstract

A luminaire includes a housing having an outer wall and a mounting wall configured to be secured to a structure. The housing further includes a compartment defined at least partially between the outer wall and the mounting wall. The compartment is configured to support a plurality of control devices. A support is coupled to the housing and supports a light emitter assembly. The support includes a plurality of fins in thermal communication with the light emitter assembly. A wall is positioned between the compartment and the plurality of fins.

First claim

What is claimed:

1 . A luminaire comprising:
a housing including a first outer wall and a mounting wall configured to be secured to a structure; and a support coupled to the housing and supporting a light emitter assembly, the support including a base configured to receive the light emitter assembly, a second outer wall, and a plurality of fins extending between the base and the second outer wall, wherein the plurality of fins include a first set of fins positioned along a first side of the base and a second set of fins positioned along a second side of the base.

2 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the first set of fins are oriented in a first direction substantially parallel to the mounting wall and the second set of fins are oriented in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the mounting wall.

3 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the support includes a plurality of bosses and a plurality of holes, the luminaire further comprising a plurality of fasteners for securing the support to the housing, each of the fasteners extending through an associated one of the bosses and holes.

4 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the outer wall defines a semi-cylindrical profile.

5 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the outer wall defines a quarter-spherical profile.

6 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the outer wall defines a trapezoidal profile.

7 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of fins extend outwardly and downwardly from the base to draw heat away from the housing.

8 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the housing includes a compartment defined at least partially between the outer wall and the mounting wall, the compartment configured to support a control device.

9 . The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the light emitter assembly includes a firs set of light emitters controlled to be activated during a normal operation and a second set of light emitters controlled to be activated during an emergency mode.

10 . The luminaire of claim 9 , wherein the second set of light emitters are activated during normal operation and the first set of light emitters are deactivated during the emergency mode.

11 . A luminaire comprising:
a housing including a lower wall, an outer wall and a mounting wall configured to be secured to a structure; a support coupled the housing, the support including a base, a first set of fins extending from the base away from the housing, and a second set of fins extending from the base toward the housing; and a light emitter assembly connected to the base, wherein the light emitter assembly includes a first set of light emitters and a second set of light emitters.

12 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein a first lens is positioned over the first light emitters having a first light distribution and a second lens is positioned over the second light emitters having a second light distribution different than then first light distribution.

13 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the second set of fins space the base from the housing.

14 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the first set of fins includes a plurality of fins oriented in a first direction substantially parallel to the mounting wall and a plurality of fins oriented in a second direction substantially perpendicular to the mounting wall.

15 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the support includes a plurality of bosses and a plurality of holes, the luminaire further comprising a plurality of fasteners for securing the support to the housing, each of the fasteners extending through an associated one of the bosses and holes.

16 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the mounting wall includes a conduit for receiving a conductor.

17 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the outer wall defines a semi-cylindrical profile, a quarter-spherical profile, or a trapezoidal profile.

18 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the support includes a sensor compartment.

19 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the first set of fins extend outwardly and downwardly from the base to draw heat away from the housing.

20 . The luminaire of claim 11 , wherein the housing includes a compartment defined at least partially between the outer wall and the mounting wall, the compartment configured to support a control device.
