Abstract
A lighting module for a recessed light fixture has a housing and a light module body movably coupled to the housing by a linkage. In an intermediate tilted position, an optical axis of the light module body is aligned at a first angle relative to a Y axis, and in a fully-tilted limit position, the optical axis is aligned at a second angle relative to the Y axis. Movement of the light module body relative to the housing includes rotation about a Z axis and translation parallel to X and Y axes. During movement of the light module body relative to the housing a first lateral section of a peripheral edge defining an opening of the light module body remains substantially parallel to the Z axis and maintains a substantially constant perpendicular distance from the X axis.
