The present disclosure includes portable solar-powered lighting devices with a speaker, wireless communication, and/or charging capabilities. For example, the lighting devices herein may be configured as solar-powered rechargeable light/speaker/battery packs. One or more features of the lighting devices may provide benefits for travel use, such as, e.g., dimensions (e.g., compact size and/or shape), weight (e.g., relatively light weight), and/or functionality (e.g., speaker, different light operating modes, different sound operating modes, and/or wireless connectivity).

FIGS. 1A and 1B show an exemplary lighting device 100 according to some aspects of the present disclosure. As shown, the lighting device 100 comprises a housing that includes a cover 102, a base 104, and a section 106 between the cover 102 and the base 104. The various portions of the housing may be separate components configured to attach together (permanently attached or removably attached), or the various portions may be integral with one another. In some examples, the lighting device is not inflatable, e.g., the lighting device does not include an inflatable bladder. In at least one example, the lighting device includes a cover 102 and a base 104 without a section 106 between the cover 102 and the base 104 (e.g., the cover 102 being configured to attach to the base 104).

According to some aspects of the present disclosure, the section 106 may be configured to allow sound to pass therethrough, e.g., the sound being generated by a speaker contained within the housing. Additionally or alternatively, the cover 102 may be configured to allow light to pass therethrough, e.g., the light being generated by one or more light sources contained within the housing.

The lighting devices herein may have any suitable shape. The cross-sectional shape may be circular, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, or any other cross-sectional shape such as, e.g., polygonal (triangular, square, rectangular, pentagonal, etc.), oval, or other suitable shape. Further, the cross-sectional shape and/or dimensions optionally may vary. For example, the lighting device 100 is depicted as having a rounded edges and a tapered exterior, such that the cross-sectional dimension of the section 106 is greater than the cross-sectional dimension of each of the cover 102 and the base 104. That is, the cross-sectional dimension of the housing is at a maximum at or proximate the junction between, or transition from, the section 106 to the base 104. In other examples contemplated herein, the lighting device may have a cross-sectional dimension that does not vary among the cover 102, base 104, and section 106 (e.g., a housing that is cubic, rectangular, cylindrical, etc.).

The housing may comprise a polymer or combination of polymer materials. For example, the base and/or other components of the lighting device 100 may comprise acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS), polypropylene, polyethylene, silicone, polyurethane, including thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), polyvinylchloride (PVC). In at least one example, the cover 102 and/or the base 104 comprises ABS. For example, the base 104 may comprise rigid ABS, optionally with a soft-touch polymer layer overmolded, and/or the cover 102 may comprise ABS configured to allow light to pass therethrough (e.g., the cover 102 being transparent or translucent). For example, the cover 102 may comprise frosted ABS, which may have any desired color (e.g., white, clear, beige, yellow, orange, red, blue, green, violet, grey, etc.). These materials are exemplary only; additional polymers and other suitable materials including glass (e.g., glass with shatter resistance) are also contemplated and encompassed herein. The material used to form the cover 102 may allow for even dispersion of light.

The section 106 overlaying speaker components of the device 100 may be at least partially porous to facilitate sound transmission. In at least one example, the section 106 comprises a polymer wall with a plurality of holes (e.g., a perforated ABS sheet) covered with fabric or other textile material. The textile material may be water-resistant and may have a texture and/or weave that promotes transmission of sound. The textile (e.g., fabric) may be coupled to, e.g., permanently adhered to, the polymer wall. In some examples herein, the lighting device 100 includes a handle 160 coupled to the housing and/or attached to an interior of the device 100 and extending through the housing. The handle 160 may be flexible, e.g., comprising a flexible polymer or textile, and may be adjustable. In some examples, the lighting device 100 does not include a handle.

Further referring to FIGS. 1A and 1B, the lighting device 100 includes at least one solar panel 150 coupled to, or integrated into, the outer surface of the base 104, e.g., to allow the solar panel 150 to be exposed to natural and/or artificial light for charging/recharging. Any suitable solar panel(s) 150 may be used in the lighting device 100. In some examples, the solar panel 150 may comprise silicon, e.g., monocrystalline or polycrystalline silicon. The solar panel(s) 150 may be coupled to an outer surface of the base 104, optionally backed by a support material such as polycarbonate or other plastic or polymer. Alternatively, the base 104 may include a recess for receiving the solar panel(s) 150 and optionally one or more apertures to allow for electronic wiring for connecting the solar panel(s) 150 to electronic components contained within the housing. Optionally, the base 104 may be coupled to a support 118, such as a flexible pad or pads, which may comprise a gripping material suck as silicone or rubber. For example, the support 118 may have an annular shape as shown in FIG. 2. Additionally or alternatively, the base 104 may be coupled to a plurality of supports 118, e.g., in the form of pads or “feet,” which may assist in gripping a surface and avoid unintended sliding of the lighting device 100.

The outermost surface of the solar panel(s) 150 may include a protective layer such as a film or other material to protect the surface of the solar panel(s) 150 from damage while still permitting exposure to sunlight for generating power. In at least one example, the solar panel(s) 150 is covered with a protective layer comprising a laminate. Exemplary voltages of the solar panel 160 may generally range from about 4V to about 8V, e.g., about 5V, about 6V, or about 7V, but other voltages are encompassed by the disclosure herein.

The lighting device 100 may include one or more user interfaces, such as one or more buttons, dials, touchscreens, switches, etc., configured to receive user input for controlling different functionalities of the lighting device. Additionally or alternatively, the lighting device 100 may be configured to accept user input wirelessly as discussed further below. In some examples, the lighting device includes a plurality of user elements. As shown in FIG. 1A, the lighting device 100 is shown with first and second user elements, e.g., first button 131 and second button 132, as well as a third user element, e.g., touchscreen 110. In other examples, the lighting device 100 includes one user element (e.g., first button 131), or two user elements (e.g., first and second buttons 131, 132; or first button 131 and touchscreen 110).

The first and second buttons 131, 132 each may comprise a polymer, such as ABS, overlaying electronic components, and may have the same or different color than the base 104 and/or other portions of the housing. The first button 131 may be used to control different features of the device 100 than the second button 132. Exemplary features that may be controlled by the first and second buttons 131, 132 may include, for example, turning the touchscreen 110 on and off, turning light sources on and off, turning wireless communication features on and off, and/or to selecting among different operating modes of the lighting device 100. Exemplary wireless communication protocols that may be used include, but are not limited to, Bluetooth, a near-field communication (NFC) protocol, Zigbee, a RF communication protocol, Wi-Fi, and combinations thereof. For example, the lighting device 100 may be Bluetooth connected and/or Wi-Fi enabled, e.g., to permit third-party connectivity such as communicating with Google Home/Assistant, Apple HomePod/Siri, Amazon Echo/Alexa, and/or apps like IFTTT.

In at least one example, the first button 131 may be configured to turn the touchscreen 110 on and off, and the second button 132 may be configured to activate and terminate wireless communication, e.g., Bluetooth. Thus, for example, a first press of the first button 131 may turn the touchscreen 110 on, and a second press of the first button 131 may turn the touchscreen 110 off. Similarly, a first press of the second button 132 may activate Bluetooth capability, and a second press of the second button 132 may terminate Bluetooth. The first button 131 and/or the second button 132 may include an indicator light to indicate when a feature of the device 100 is activated (e.g., the indicator light being illuminated when Bluetooth is activated).

According to some aspects of the present disclosure, the touchscreen 110 may be touch sensitive to allow a user to select among various options and features of the lighting device 100. The touchscreen optionally may include a graphical user interface (GUI). For example, the touchscreen may provide an indication of the amount of power remaining in the device 100, e.g., as a percentage and/or by a progress indicator (e.g., shaded portion within a boundary, or a series of colored bars or lights). In the case of a progress indicator, the correspondence between the shaded portion or number of colored bars or lights and the battery charge may include specified ranges or thresholds of the battery. Additionally or alternatively, the touchscreen may include a menu that allows a user to select among different operating modes. In some examples, the touchscreen responds to touch in order to select among a series of operating modes. Selecting different operating modes may be achieved by the number, frequency, and/or location the touchscreen 110 is touched (e.g., one touch in the center selects a first operating mode, a second touch in the center selects a second operating mode, one touch at the periphery selects a third operating mode, a touch of at least 2 seconds selects a fourth operating mode, etc.). According to some aspects of the present disclosure, the touchscreen 110 may serve as a touch sensitive snooze button, e.g., for using the lighting device 100 as an alarm clock.

The cover 102 may be configured to allow a user to access the touchscreen 110. For example, the cover 102 may include a touch sensitive portion overlaying the touchscreen, or the cover 102 may include an aperture or window corresponding to the size and shape of the touchscreen 110, such that the cover 102 borders the touchscreen 110. In some examples herein, the lighting device does not include a touchscreen 110. In such cases, the cover 102 need not be touch sensitive and may enclose the entire upper portion of the lighting device 100.

The lighting devices herein may contain a battery 130, e.g., a rechargeable battery, in electronic communication with the solar panel(s) 150 and/or one or more other electronic components (see, e.g., FIG. 2). The one or more electronic components may comprise, for example, a printed circuit board (PCB) 134 that includes one or more of a current regulator, an integrated circuit chip, and/or a microprocessor, one or more light sources such as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) 125, and one or more speakers 107.

The battery 130 may be in communication with the solar panel(s) 150, such that the battery 130 may store power generated by the solar panel(s) 150. The battery 130 also may be in communication with the LEDs 125 in order to supply power to the LEDs 125. While omitted from the FIG. 2 for purposes of simplicity, the lighting device 100 may have electrical connections to supply power from the battery 130 to the LEDs 125. The battery 130 may have any suitable capacity. In some examples herein, the battery 130 may have a capacity of from about 1500 mAh to about 3500 mAh or from about 2000 mAh to about 3000 mAh, e.g., about 2500 mAh or about 3000 mAh. The battery 130 may employ any suitable chemistry or composition (e.g., lithium-ion, nickel manganese cobalt oxide, ferric, etc.). Further, for example, the lighting device 100 may include one or more suitable electronic connectors, such as one or more USB ports (including micro-USB ports), which may be used to charge/recharge the battery 130 from an external power source and/or used to charge external devices, such as a mobile phone, from power stored in the battery 130. According to some examples herein, the lighting device 100 may be configured to recharge via USB cable in about 4 to 8 hours, e.g., about 5 to 6 hours, and/or to recharge via the solar panel 150 in about 18 to 30 hours, e.g., about 24 to 25 hours. The solar panel(s) 150 may allow for recharging the battery 130 in less than 24 hours in direct sunlight, such as less than 18 hours, less than 14 hours, less than 12 hours, or less than 8 hours, e.g., from 6 hours to 18 hours, or from 12 hours to 14 hours in direct sunlight.

The housing of the lighting device 100 may be arranged such that the base 104 houses the speaker(s) 107 or otherwise secures the speaker(s) 107 in place. In at least one example, the base 104 may include features complementary to features of the section 106. As shown in FIG. 2, for example, the perimeter of the base 104 may include a ledge or recess that receives the lower end of the section, which may provide for a friction fit. The PCB 134 may be coupled to an inner surface of the base 104. As further illustrated in FIG. 2, the lighting device 100 may include two speakers 107 each facing outward (in opposite directions) towards the porous wall of the section 106. To secure the speakers 107, the base 104 may include an interior wall 116 having two spaces disposed opposite each other, the spaces having dimensions suitable for receiving a corresponding one of the speakers 107. FIGS. 3A and 3B show cross-sectional views of the lighting device 100, where the cross-section of FIG. 3B is 90 degrees to the cross-section of FIG. 3A. According to some examples herein, the battery 130 may be disposed between the two speakers 107, as illustrated in FIG. 3A. This arrangement is non-limiting and exemplary only.

Further referring to FIG. 2, the lighting device 100 may include a separator 108 between the base 104 and the cover 102. The separator 108 may comprise any of the materials discussed above for the base 104 and/or the cover 102. For example, the separator 108 may comprise ABS. The lower surface of the separator 108 may have the same cross-sectional dimension as the upper end of the section 106 and may be generally parallel to the lower surface of the base 104, such that the separator 108, the base 104, and the section 106 form an internal chamber. In this way, the separator 108 may serve to channel sound generated by the speakers 107 to the lower portion of the lighting device 100 and direct sound through the porous wall of the section 106. Similarly, the cover 102 may defined an internal chamber that houses the LED(s) 125. For example, the cover 102 and the separator 108 may form another chamber that, outside the chamber housing the speakers 107.

The upper surface of the separator 108 may serve as a support for the one or more LEDs 125. For example, the LED(s) 125 may be mounted or otherwise coupled to a substrate 120, illustrated in FIG. 2 as a ring, the substrate 120 being disposed on the upper surface of the separator 108. That is, the LED(s) 125 may face upwards, towards the cover 102. In some examples, the lighting device 100 may include a plurality of LEDs, optionally arranged at regular intervals such as in an annular configuration. In some examples, the lighting device 100 includes at least 2 LEDs, e.g., from 6 to 36 LEDs, from 10 to 24 LEDs, from 12 to 18 LEDs, or from 8 to 20 LEDs, from 24 to 36 LEDs. The LEDs 125 may be all white LEDs, all colored (RGB) LEDs, or a combination thereof. For example, the lighting device 100 may include from 8 to 16 white LEDs, e.g., 12 white LEDs, and from 2 to 10 RGB LEDs, e.g., 6 RGB LEDs.

In some examples, the LED(s) 125 may generate a light output ranging from about 10 lumens to about 350 lumens, such as about 50 lumens to about 300 lumens, about 100 lumens to about 300 lumens, or from about 150 lumens to about 250 lumens, e.g., about 180, 190, 200, 210, 220, 230, 240, or 250 lumens. The LED(s) 125 may have different intensity settings, e.g., a bright intensity (greater than or equal to 100 lumens, e.g., 220 lumens), a regular intensity (e.g., 50 to 100 lumens), and/or a low intensity (less than 50 lumens, e.g., 20 lumens). For example, the LED(s) 125 may have a light output of 100 lumens or greater, e.g., 120 lumens or greater, or 150 lumens or greater.

Further, for example, the rechargeable battery 130 may provide sufficient power for illuminating the LEDs 125 on a low setting (20 lumens) for at least 12 hours, at least 15 hours, or at least 20 hours, e.g., from 6 hours to 30 hours, or from 18 hours to 24 hours. Additionally or alternatively, the battery 130 may provide sufficient power for illuminating the LEDs 125 at a high setting (220 lumens) for at least 2 hours or at least 4 hours, e.g., from about 3 hours to about 5 hours.

The microprocessor or integrated circuit chip may be configured to control one or more operating modes of the lighting device 100, e.g., visual and/or acoustic modes. For example, the lighting device 100 may include one or more operating modes of the speaker(s) 107 (e.g., on/off, preset sounds, alarm, volume), one or more operating modes of the LED(s) 125 (e.g., on/off, intensity, color, color transitions), and/or one or more operating modes that combine operation of the speaker and the LED(s) (e.g., mood lighting combined with relaxing sounds, or flashing light combined with an alarm). As mentioned above, the lighting device 100 may include a touch sensitive snooze button and/or display screen (e.g., in the form of touchscreen 110) to terminate or change between operating modes, such as a preset alarm stored in the microprocessor of the PCB 134.

At least one operating mode of the lighting device 100 may include playing music from an external device, such as a mobile phone, MP3 player or other audio player, etc., through the speaker(s) 107 of the device 100. Further, for example, various operating modes of the lighting device 100 may be preprogrammed into the microprocessor, such that a user may select among the operating modes via physical input and/or wireless input. Exemplary preset operating modes may include, but are not limited to, color transitions to simulation circadian rhythm for waking up, color transitions (e.g., soothing gentle color transitions from red to blue and/or vice versa over time), and different soundscapes.

For example, the lighting device 100 may include one or more operating modes for generating various sounds, including, but not limited to, white noise, ocean sounds (e.g., crashing waves), babbling brook, rainfall, wind, or bird sounds, among other natural or environmental sounds. Additionally or alternatively, the lighting device may include one or more operating modes for turning LEDs 125 on and off, adjusting intensity of light generated by the LED(s), and/or changing colors of the LED(s) (including initiating and/or cycling through color transitions). For example, the operating modes of the device 100 may include simulating a natural sunrise for natural wake-up, simulating a natural sunset to facilitate sleep, and/or mood or therapy lighting. Further, the operating modes optionally may combine light and sound. For example, the device 100 may be configured to modify light output from one or more LED(s) 125 according to the sound and/or rhythm of music generated by the speaker(s) 107.

The lighting device 100 may include a screen (e.g., touchscreen 110) that allows for setting the time and/or an alarm, adjusting brightness of the LED(s) 125, adjusting volume of the speaker(s) 107, checking the battery charge level, and/or selecting preset values for light and/or sound. When the lighting device 100 is paired via Bluetooth, a user may connect and control the light through an app (e.g., an application of a smart phone or other mobile device), monitor sleep patterns, and/or play music or other audio files through a phone as a wireless/Bluetooth speaker. That is, the microprocessor may be configured to interface with the mobile device through the app, which may enable the mobile device to transmit various user inputs to control the microprocessor, and thus to control the lighting device 100. For example, the app may display a user interface as described in U.S. application Ser. No. 16/165,864 filed on Oct. 18, 2018, incorporated by reference herein. The user interface may include various options for users to select, including the option to select a color to be displayed by the lighting device 100 by changing the color(s) of the LED(s) 125. For example, a user may change the color of the lighting device 100 by selecting a preset color and/or by making a customized selection via a color wheel.

The lighting devices herein may be relatively compact and/or lightweight to promote portability. For example, the lighting device 100 may have a total weight less than 12 ounces, less than 10 ounces, or less than 8 ounces, e.g., a weight of 4 to 12 ounces, or 6 to 10 ounces. Further, for example, the maximum cross-sectional dimension may be less than or equal to 6 inches, less than or equal to 5 inches, or less than or equal to 4 inches, e.g., from about 4 to 5 inches.
