Patent ID: 8529100

Claim:
A modular heat sink, comprising: a plurality of heat sink sections interconnected sequentially to each other about an axis, each heat sink section comprising: a base section member comprising a male connecting part at first end of the base section member and a female connecting part at an opposing second end of the base section member; a primary extension member having a first end and a distal second end, and extending radially outward from the base section member and away from the axis, wherein the first end is coupled to the base section member; and a secondary extension member coupled to the second end of the primary extension member and extending orthogonally from the second end in a first direction and an opposing second direction; wherein the coupled primary extension and secondary extension members form a substantially T-shaped cross-section; wherein the male connecting part of each heat sink section is removably coupled to the female connecting part of an adjacent heat sink section; and wherein at least one light emitting diode (LED) is coupled to an outer edge, with respect to the axis, of at least one of the secondary extension members of the plurality of heat sink sections.
