Abstract: A lighting luminaire is provided for implementing enhanced performance for multiple applications. A lighting fixture includes a housing defining a novel heat management system optionally formed by a unitary member or formed by two generally identical housing sections. The housing includes a predefined profile and features for heat transfer including an upper compartment where heat sensitive components are installed and a lower compartment where lighting modules, such as LED modules, are installed. The housing lower compartment includes an upwardly facing lower lens member and predefined features to minimize or prevent heat from traveling upwardly into the upper housing compartment.

Abstract: An luminary fitting is provided for implementing quickly and easily connecting to an associated device, such as a lighting fixture, gasketed enclosure or wiring box. The luminary fitting includes an enclosure body having a mating face for connection with a selected wiring installation configuration and an opposed face connecting with the associated device. The opposed face includes a threaded wire way extending into the associated device. A sealing gasket is provided with the threaded wire way. A pressure equalization vent is provided with the enclosure body for preventing pressure buildup, venting of any moisture that condenses from ambient air inside the luminary, gasketed enclosure, or wiring box, and for protecting against liquid ingress in the associated device.

Abstract: Lighting fixtures having an enhanced heat sink performance are provided. A heat sink member is a unitary ring member. An outside surface of the heat sink member is disposed exterior of the lighting fixture and includes a plurality of outwardly extending fins. An inside surface of the heat sink member is disposed inside of the lighting fixture and includes a plurality of surfaces configured for mating engagement with a respective light source board. The heat sink member joins upper and lower globe portions of the lighting fixture. A reflector or a light pipe optionally is provided interior of the light fixture, providing illumination directional control. A polygon shaped lighting fixture provides a LED light output to cross in a plane proximate to a light center of the fixture.

Abstract: An adapter bracket which enables the installation of a door frame or louver into a recessed fixture that sits on a T-bar supported by a ceiling without having to custom design a hinge and latch system to match the original fixture or require the installation of a false frame that lifts the fixture. The brackets slide between the T-bar and the existing fixture. The bracket is also slightly wider than the T-bar opening. The door frame will keep the brackets spaced wide enough to ensure that the assembly would not fall out of the opening. The hinge and latch mechanism for the door frame is built into its end rails and latches onto the bracket to ensure the door frame is supported and held in position.

Abstract: An indoor enclosed fluorescent lighting fixture and luminaire implements enhanced heat dissipation. A lighting fixture includes an upper heat sink housing defining a cavity receiving at least one electrical ballast, and an upwardly open lower lens member receiving a fluorescent light source. The upper heat sink housing has a predefined heat transfer profile including generally flat elongated base wall portions for heat transfer mating engagement with a reflector positioned above the fluorescent light source and a vertically spaced apart, generally centrally located upper wall portion for heat transfer engagement with an electrical ballast.

Abstract: A prismatic lens and a reflector/refractor device having enhanced characteristics are provided for lighting fixtures. The prismatic lens and the reflector/refractor device are formed of a silicone material. A prismatic lens member includes a plurality of prisms on a surface thereof for refracting light. The reflector/refractor device includes a plurality of prisms on a surface thereof for reflecting and refracting light. The silicone material forming the prismatic lens and the reflector/refractor device is substantially transparent, and enables forming enhanced optical elements, for example, by injection molding technique. The silicone material is a selected one of dimethylsilicone, phenylmethlysilicone, or similar silicone material enabling enhanced optical performance for the prismatic lens and the reflector/refractor device.

Abstract: A clip to be installed on a diffuser such that a lip defined by the rim of the diffuser is positioned in a cavity of the clip, with two arms defined by the clip capturing the rim of the diffuser and a leg defined by the clip extending into the hollow center of the diffuser. The diffuser may include knobs positioned on either side of the clip to prevent the same from sliding. The leg of the clip is then placed in an inverted channel defined by the lighting fixture such that the clip secures the diffuser thereto.

Abstract: An end cap for use with at least two differently diameter tube guards, wherein the two differently diameter tube guards are designed for use with a fluorescent lamp. The end cap includes a base with an aperture for accommodating electrical terminals defined on the fluorescent lamp, an internal periphery portion for frictional engagement with an external periphery of an end of one of the two differently diameter tube guards, and an external periphery portion for frictional engagement with an internal periphery of an end of the other one of the two differently diameter tube guards.

Abstract: An socket is provided with a flexible nib that is able to be received by a mounting plate with an aperture. The socket is easily removed and secured to the mounting plate and will also be received in a mounting plate without an aperture.
