Abstract

A lighting device includes a driving unit, a body arranged under the driving unit, a first light emitting module powered by the driving unit and disposed in a first area of the body, a second light emitting module powered by the driving unit and disposed in a second area of the body surrounding the first area, a first reflector surrounding the first light emitting module, and a second reflector surrounding the second light emitting module, and the first reflector. The driving unit controls the first light emitting module and the second light emitting module independently of each other.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A lighting device comprising:
a driving unit;
a body which is disposed under the driving unit and includes one side including a first area and a second area surrounding the first area;
a first light emitting module which receives electric power from the driving unit and is disposed in the first area of the body;
a second light emitting module which receives electric power from the driving unit and is disposed in the second area of the body;
a first reflector which is disposed on the one side of the body and surrounds the first light emitting module;
a second reflector which is disposed on the one side of the body and surrounds the second light emitting module, wherein the driving unit controls the first light emitting module and the second light emitting module independently of each other; and
a cover coupled to the body in such a manner as to be movable up and down with respect to the body, and wherein the driving of the first and the second light emitting modules is controlled by the moving of the cover.

2. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein an inclination of the first reflector based on the one side of the body is different from an inclination of the second reflector based on the one side of the body.

3. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the first light emitting module is disposed in the central portion of the one side of the body, and wherein the second light emitting module is disposed on the outer circumference of the one side of the body.

4. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the cover is rotatably coupled to the body and moves up and down according to the rotary motion.

5. The lighting device of claim 1 , further comprising:
the cover disposed on the first and the second light emitting modules and the first and the second reflectors, and the cover is connected to the body and has an opening; and
a lens disposed in the opening of the cover.

6. The lighting device of claim 5 , wherein the body comprises a switch determining the driving of at least one of the first and the second light emitting modules, and wherein the switch is disposed on a coupling portion between the cover and the body, and is operated by contact with the cover.
