Luminaires and Light Engines for Same

Номер: US20120206912A1
Принадлежит: ABL IP HOLDING LLC

Light engines for inclusion in luminaires. Some embodiments of the light engine include a heat sink, a reflector, and light emitting diodes. Some embodiments of the heat sink include perforations. The reflector includes a reflective surface that extends around at least a portion of the light emitting diodes. In some embodiments, a portion of the reflector is sandwiched between the light emitting diodes and the heat sink. In some embodiments, an end of the reflector terminates above the light emitting diodes to reduce the concentration of light directly above the light emitting diodes but rather distribute the light outwardly from the luminaire.

The partially lit T-bar includes a spine with a rest shelf at a lower portion thereof. The rest shelf supports adjacent ceiling tiles. The under surface of the rest shelf includes a lighting module on a portion and a plain unlit undersurface on other portions. Additional T-bars which are shorter, and typically fully lit or fully unlit and half the length of the partially lit T-bar are also provided which can attach at ends or near a midpoint of the partially lit T-bar and typically perpendicularly thereto. A great variety of lighting patterns in a dropped ceiling is thus facilitated. Each of the T-bars preferably also includes a heat sink on an upper portion of the spine and also preferably a lower heat sink on an upper portion of the rest shelf. Heat associated with the light element of the T-bar can thus be drawn away from a space below the ceiling. 1. A partially lighted T-bar for a suspended ceiling , comprising in combination:an elongate spine extending between opposing ends;a rest shelf at a lower portion of said spine;a light covering a portion of an underside of said rest shelf; anda plain unlit surface on a portion of said underside of said rest shelf.2. The partially lighted T-bar of wherein approximately half of said underside of said rest shelf is covered by said light.3. The partially lighted T-bar of wherein a lighted half of said T-bar is at a first end of said rest shelf and a plain unlit portion of said T-bar is located on a second end of said rest shelf opposite said first end.4. The partially lighted T-bar of wherein said spine includes a heat sink on an upper portion thereof spaced from said rest shelf.5. The partially lighted T-bar of wherein said heat sink extends along an entire length of said spine between said opposing ends.6. The partially lighted T-bar of wherein a lower heat sink is provided on an upper surface of said rest shelf opposite said underside of said rest shelf.7. The partially lighted T-bar of wherein said lower heat sink ...

Direct/indirect luminaire systems and methods

Номер: US20210080077A1
Принадлежит: ABL IP HOLDING LLC

A luminaire includes a housing, a downlight that includes one or more first light sources configured to emit a first light downwardly from the housing, a waveguide, and one or more second light sources. The waveguide is formed of a portion of an optical material and characterized by opposing planar faces joined by one or more edge faces about a periphery of the optical material. The waveguide forms at least a portion of an uppermost optical surface of the luminaire. The one or more second light sources are coupled with the housing and configured to emit a second light into the optical material through at least one of the one or more edge faces. The waveguide is configured to emit at least a portion of the second light upwardly from an upper one of the planar faces.

Принадлежит: Fusion Optix Inc

A light fixture is provided with increased light output, uniformity of brightness and color and controlled lighting non-lambertian distributions by use of an optical element that functions simultaneously as an outcoupling TIR light guide and a direct throughput lens. It provides typical benefits of an edgelit light guide design including thin forms and shallow depth, extended emitting area, and single or dual peak off axis light distributions particularly useful in applications such as indirect illumination of ceilings, wall washing, aisle lighting, exterior façade lighting and area lighting as well as other lighting applications. Additionally, areas typically dedicated to bezels or edge reflectors can be greatly reduced or eliminated due to decreased hotspotting to provide a fixture face with very high percentage of light emitting area. Embodiments are described for direct, indirect, and direct indirect configurations.
