Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: an LED based illumination module comprising an output port, a first thermal interface surface, and a reflector engaging surface oriented perpendicular to the first thermal interface surface, the reflector engaging surface including a plurality of reflector engaging members; and a reflector comprising a second thermal interface surface and a plurality of elastic mounting members, the LED based illumination module and the reflector are rotationally moveable with respect to each other from a disengaged position in which the reflector engaging members do not engage the elastic mounting members to an engaged position in which the reflector engaging members engage the elastic mounting members, wherein a rotational movement to the engaged position deforms the elastic mounting members and generates a compressive force between the first thermal interface surface and the second thermal interface surface, wherein the LED based illumination module generates an amount of heat during operation, and wherein at least twenty-five percent of the amount of heat generated by the LED based illumination module is transmitted through the first and second thermal interface surfaces and is dissipated through the reflector.
