[0200]In the following discussion that addresses a number of embodiments and applications of the present invention, reference is made to the accompanying drawings that form a part thereof, where depictions are made, by way of illustration, of specific embodiments in which the invention may be practiced. It is to be understood that other embodiments may be utilized and changes may be made without departing from the scope of the invention.
[0201]FIG. 1 illustrates a top perspective view of an integrated-lighting-module 100 (in an assembled configuration). Note, “integrated-lighting-module” may also be referred to as “integrated lighting module” (i.e., with or without the hyphens). Note, unless otherwise specified “integrated-lighting-module 100” may refer to the assembled configuration for integrated-lighting-module 100 such as that shown in FIG. 1. In some embodiments, integrated-lighting-module 100 may also be known as a driver assembly. In some embodiments, integrated-lighting-module 100 may comprise sub-components of a driver cap 101, a heat sink module 115, and a holder 125. In some embodiments, driver cap 101 may be referred to as a driver housing 101. In some embodiments, driver cap 101 may attach to a top portion of heat sink module 115 (and in some embodiments, this attachment may be removable). In some embodiments, a bottom portion of heat sink module 115 may attach to holder 125 (and in some embodiments, this attachment may be removable). In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be disposed between driver cap 101 and holder 125. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be in communication with driver cap 101 and with holder 125. In some embodiments, driver cap 101 may not be touching holder 125.
[0202]Continuing discussing FIG. 1, in some embodiments, driver cap 101 may be substantially hollow (void space) and cylindrical member (e.g., with side-wall 103) that may be closed (capped) at one end (its top 105) and open at its other end (bottom 111). In some embodiments, this hollow void space that driver cap 101 may surround may be for various electronics, such as, but not limited to a driver. In some embodiments, top 105 and bottom 111 of driver cap 101 may be disposed opposite from each other, separated by side-wall 103. In some embodiments, top 105 may comprise one or more aperture(s) 109. In some embodiments, top 105 may have one or more aperture(s) 109.

In some embodiments, top 105 may have one or more indicator(s) 107. In some embodiments, top 105 may have one or more indicator(s) 107. In some embodiments, the one or more indicator(s) 107 may be one or more of: word(s), writing, number(s), graphic(s), logo(s), trademark(s), serial number(s), model number(s), certification indication(s), status indication(s), lot number(s), patent number(s), tracking number(s), registration number(s), and/or the like. In some embodiments, bottom 111 of driver cap 101 may be open, which may allow various electronics, such as, but not limited to, the driver to be inserted and used while in the hollow void space that driver cap 101 may surround. In some embodiments, bottom 111 of driver cap 101 may be open, which may allow driver cap 101 to attach (removably so in some embodiments) to a top portion of heat sink module 115. In some embodiments, a nature (type or style) of attachment between driver cap 101 and heat sink module 115 may be one or more of: friction fit, press fit, snap fit, threaded fit, attached using adhesives, welded fit, attached using screws, attached using bolts, attached using tacks, and/or the like.
[0203]Continuing discussing FIG. 1, in some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be a substantially hollow (surrounding void space) and cylindrical member that may be substantially finned along its upper (top) portion and threaded along its bottom portion. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be finned with a plurality of fins 117. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be fined (e.g., with fin(s) 117) or non-finned (e.g., no fins 117). In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be finned with one or more fin(s) 117. In some embodiments, the one or more fin(s) 117 may encourage, facilitate, and/or provide for heat transfer, such as, but not limited, heat radiated out from these one or more fin(s) 117 into the surrounding environment. In some embodiments, the one or more fin(s) 117 may allow cooling of heat sink module 115. In some embodiments, where sides of heat sink module 115 are not finned with fins 117, there may be side walls 119. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may comprise side walls 119. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may have side walls 119. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may house various electronics, such as, but not limited to, LED light chip 701 (see e.g., FIG. 7 and FIG. 11 for LED light chip 701). In some embodiments, LED light chip 701 may also be referred to as LED element 701. Note, “LED” as used herein may mean “light emitting diode.” In some embodiments LED light chip 701 may be a light source that may comprise one or more LEDs. In some embodiments LED light chip 701 may be a light source that may comprise one or more light source(s) that may or may not include LEDs. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may house at least some portion of optical reflector 703 (see e.g., FIG. 7 and FIG. 11 for optical reflector 703). In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be substantially (mostly) closed at its top end (aside from various apertures and the fins 117). In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be substantially (mostly) open at its bottom end.
[0204]In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may attach to holder 125. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be removably attached to holder 125. In some embodiments, heat sink module 115 may be removably attached to holder 125 via complimentary threading on each respective component (such as, threading 1123 of heat sink module 115 and internal-threading 1143 of holder 125—see e.g., FIG. 11).
[0205]Continuing discussing FIG. 1, in some embodiments, holder 125 may be a substantially hollow and cylindrical member that may be open at both ends. In some embodiments, holder 125 may hold heat sink module 115. In some embodiments, holder 125 may hold optical reflector 703. In some embodiments, holder 125 may hold both heat sink module 115 and optical reflector 703. In some embodiments, when integrated-lighting-module 100 may be assembled, at least a portion of heat sink module 115 and/or at least a portion of optical reflector 703 may be located within holder 125. In some embodiments, a main cylindrical side wall portion of holder 125 may be denoted as side-wall 127. In some embodiments, holder 125 may comprise side-wall 127, which may be a side wall of holder 125. In some embodiments, within side-wall 127 may be one or more holes, denoted as thread lock notch 129. In some embodiments, a given thread lock notch 129 may be a through hole through side-wall 127. In some embodiments, a given thread lock notch 129 may be threaded to receive a threaded screw and/or a threaded bolt. In some embodiments, such a threaded screw and/or a threaded bolt passing through thread lock notch 129, may be used to securely lock optical reflector 703 onto a bottom portion of heat sink module 115.
[0206]Continuing discussing FIG. 1, in some embodiments, a bottom portion of holder 125 may have a twist-lock flange 131. In some embodiments, twist-lock flange 131 may be one or more flange(s) that run around and extend outwardly from a bottom portion of holder 125. In some embodiments, twist-lock flange 131 may be two or more flange(s) that run around and extend outwardly from a bottom portion of holder 125; wherein each such flange may be separated by a gap in the given flange, wherein this gap may be denoted as twist-lock-opening 135. In some embodiments, at one end of each such gap (i.e., at one end of twist-lock-opening 135) may be a tapered portion of twist-lock flange 131 with gripping teeth, denoted as twist-lock-teeth 133. In some embodiments, the two or more twist-lock flanges 131, with two twist-lock-teeth 133, and two twist-lock-openings 135, may be used to removably attached holder 125 to a given trim 1221 (see e.g., FIG. 12A and FIG. 12B for trim 1221). In some embodiments, flange 131 may be an outside annular flange of a portion of holder 125 (such as a bottom portion of holder 125). In some embodiments, flange 131 may be an outside annular flange, with or without breaks/interruptions in a continuity of that given annular flange. In some embodiments, a bottom portion of holder 125 may have an annular flange (such as, but not limited to flange 131). See e.g., FIG. 1.
[0207]In some embodiments, optical reflector 703 may be held (secured) by holder 125. In some embodiments, optical reflector 703 may be held within holder 125. In some embodiments, this may be accomplished by a set screw passing at least partially through a given thread lock notch 129 of holder 125 to engage optical reflector 703. In some embodiments, side-wall 127 of holder 125 may have at least one thread lock notch 129. See e.g., FIG. 1.
[0208]In some embodiments, holder 125 may be removed via twisting (un-twisting) action, which in turn may then allow for a change in optics (such as, but not limited, to use of louvers, spread lens, and/or the like). In some embodiments, holder 125 may have adjustability via twisting (or un-twisting) action. In some embodiments, adjusting holder 125 may not require tools.
[0209]In some embodiments, a given integrated-lighting-module 100 may comprise: a driver cap 101, a heat sink module 115, a LED light chip 701, an optical reflector 703, and a holder 125. See e.g., FIG. 1, FIG. 11 and/or FIG. 15.
[0210]FIG. 2 illustrates a front view of integrated-lighting-module 100. Portions of driver cap 101, of heat sink module 115, and of holder 125 of integrated-lighting-module 100 may be seen in FIG. 2. Portions of aperture(s) 109 of driver cap 101 may be seen. Portions of side-wall 103 of driver cap 101 may be seen. Portions of fins 117 of heat sink module 115 may be seen. Portions of side wall 119 of heat sink module 115 may be seen. Note as shown in FIG. 2, the finned portions of heat sink module 115 may be wider than a bottom portion of heat sink module 115. That is, the bottom of heat sink module 115, where the main opening to the interior of heat sink module 115 may be located, may have a smaller diameter as compared to an upper finned portion of heat sink module 115; and in turn this configuration may facilitate more efficient heat dissipation and/or overall improved performance. For example, and without limiting the scope of the present invention, note in FIG. 2 as the viewer progresses upwards from a bottom of heat sink module 115 that its diameters increases, such that most of the finned region has a greater diameter than the bottom non-finned regions (note, this can also be seen in figures FIG. 3 through FIG. 5). Note, heat sink module 115 may have a curve that transitions from its smaller diameter bottom regions to its upper finned portions with the larger diameter. This curve in heat sink module 115 may permit integrated-lighting-module 100 to be adjusted without hitting/interfering with trim 1221 (see FIG. 12A or FIG. 12B for trim 1221). (The bottom of heat sink module 115 may be denoted as bottom 1125 and may be shown in FIG. 11.) Portion of side-wall 127 of holder 125 may be seen in FIG. 2.
