US Patent 7513660 Lighting device having forward directed heat sink assembly

A headlamp lighting device is provided that allows for the adjustment of the size of the light beam and forward heat dissipation. The lighting device includes a housing, a light source provided on the housing for generating a light beam, and an optical focus lens disposed in the path of the light beam for focusing the light beam. The lighting device also includes a lens ring supporting the optical focus lens to move the focus lens relative to the light source to adjust size of the light beam. The lens ring also serves as an outer heat sink in thermal conductive relationship with an inner heat sink.
