  • Patent number: 8678616
    Abstract: A lighting luminaire for use in a refrigerated display case includes an LED mounting portion comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) mounted thereon, a reflector, and a lens. The LED mounting portion and reflector are sized and arranged to form a reflective cavity for diffusing and directing light from the plurality of LEDs through the lens and out of the luminaire. The LED mounting portion and reflector are either attached to each other as separate components or are integrally formed. The lens is held in place in the luminaire between the LED mounting portion and the reflector or is mounted directly on the LED mounting portion over the plurality of LEDs. The LED mounting portion and/or reflector have a reflective surface for reflecting light emitted by the LEDs. Methods for retrofitting an existing luminaire in a refrigerated display with an LED luminaire are also provided.

  • Patent number: 8613528
    Abstract: Light fixtures including at least an enclosure, a heat sink, and a light-emitting diode. In one embodiment the heat sink has a first portion having fins (that protrudes outside of the enclosure) and a second portion to house and mount the LEDs (that is positioned within the enclosure). Certain embodiments also provide for gaskets and other structure to prevent leakage between the heat sink and the enclosure, such that the light fixture is water-resistant.

Certain embodiments also provide for gaskets and other structure to prevent leakage between the heat sink and the enclosure, such that the light fixture is water-resistant. Thus, embodiments of the light fixture may house LEDs and related electric components inside a water-resistant enclosure and cool those components by transferring thermal energy to the surrounding air.
