| Title: |
Multiple Source Collimated Beam Luminaire |
| Abstract: |
A luminaire comprising a light transmissive optical element, a plurality
of light sources, a light source support structure, and a light
reflective surface. The light transmissive optical element, which
preferably is a quasi-toroidal light transforming collector, is spaced
from and disposed about an axis. The plural light sources are disposed
radially outwardly of the optical element relative to the axis, to
produce a corresponding plurality of light beams. Each light source
directs its light beam toward the optical element. The optical element is
shaped and adapted to collect and transform the light beams and pass them
in the direction of the axis. The light reflective surface, which
preferably is a curved conical collimating combiner, is spaced from the
optical element, and is disposed along the axis. The light reflective
surface is optically shaped to redirect along the axis and combine the
plurality of light beams passed by the optical element to produce a
collimated beam of light from the re-directed plurality of light beams.
