Patent number: 11543102Abstract: A lighting fixture configured to expand and collapse, and methods for expanding and collapsing a light fixture are disclosed. Embodiments of the lighting fixture include a lighting fixture with a movable section that collapses into at least one cavity in a base housing for storage and shipment, and extends from the cavity for operation. In the collapsed configuration the lighting fixture fits into a smaller container than when the lighting fixture is in the expanded configuration. In some embodiments a locking member locks the movable section into its extended position and can be retracted by a user by manually disengaging the locking member. Accessories and extenders that can be attached to the lighting fixture can be stored in the one or more cavities into which the movable section is stowed in the collapsed configuration.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2021Date of Patent: January 3, 2023Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Nicholas Calaceto, Jiang Hu

Patent number: 11408599Abstract: A light fixture includes a central housing, a panel, a light source, and a tether. The central housing defines first and second side surfaces and a bottom surface, and the bottom surface defines a plane. The panel is pivotably coupled with the first side surface, and the light source is coupled with the panel. The tether is coupled at one end with the panel to pivotably suspend the panel, and the second end of the tether includes an attachment member. The attachment member is configured to selectively couple with any one of a plurality of anchor positions located on the central housing. The panel is therefore fixable between a plurality of angles relative to the plane as determined by the attachment member being coupled with a selected one of the plurality of anchor positions.Type: GrantFiled: September 3, 2021Date of Patent: August 9, 2022Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Glen Oross, Nicholas Calaceto, Peter On, Timothy Milberger

Patent number: 11398924Abstract: A wireless controller for detecting events and controlling illumination of one or more light fixture is disclosed. The device includes a wireless transceiver, a processor, an input sensor, and an output control module. The wireless controller can be used with a the wireless lighting control system, including one using a wireless mesh network. The controller is configurable for the input sensor and output control module operating in either an interdependent mode or an independent mode. In the interdependent mode the input sensor and output control module are logically/functionally related, and in the independent mode the input sensor and output control module are logically/functionally unrelated.Type: GrantFiled: December 1, 2020Date of Patent: July 26, 2022Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Ross A. Barna, Michael Hayes, Jason Lawrence Oliver

Patent number: 11320127Abstract: Systems and methods that permit initial selection of a lighting fixture output characteristic and inhibit later change of the lighting fixture output characteristic are disclosed. Embodiments include one or more devices that inhibit a lighting fixture control switch from being moved between two different positions. In some embodiments the control switch extends through an aperture in the a housing of the lighting fixture and the one or more devices are inserted into the aperture and embrace the control switch in one of the control switch's operational positions. In some embodiments the configuration of the apertures and the devices permits the devices to be inserted into the apertures in a single orientation. Some embodiments include devices with an outer surface that defines the switch embracing portion, and some embodiments include devices that are difficult to remove by hand after insertion into the aperture.Type: GrantFiled: February 21, 2020Date of Patent: May 3, 2022Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Cecil Thomas, Wengang Gao

Patent number: 11209590Abstract: A luminaire includes a first plurality of lighting elements, a housing, and a first lightguide. The housing includes a body and first and second edge frames coupled with the body. The first and second edge frames are positioned on opposing sides of the body and are separated by a first distance. The first plurality of lighting elements is further positioned on the first edge frame. The first lightguide is positioned along the first edge frame in proximity to the first plurality of lighting elements and is configured to receive light from the first plurality of lighting elements. Further, the first lightguide extends a second distance along a plane toward the second edge frame, with the second distance being less than the first distance.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2020Date of Patent: December 28, 2021Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Dan Wang-Munson, Wengang Gao, Cecil Thomas, Mario A. Turchi, Steven Madsen

Patent number: 11181261Abstract: An illustrative light fixture provides an emitter housing and a driver housing in a single fixture with an airflow channel defined between the emitter and driver housings. The airflow channel minimizes thermal conduction between the emitter and driver housings, and maximizes thermal convective cooling for at least one of the emitter housing and driver housing. The emitter housing includes vertical fins extending into the airflow chamber. The left and right sides of the emitter and driver housings define top and bottom edges that are respectively coplanar with the top and bottom edges of the vertical fins.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2017Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Vincenzo Guercio, Jiang Hu, Wengang Gao

Patent number: 11041607Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for accessing luminaire mounting and/or electrical connection compartments and components are disclosed. Embodiments include a front reflective door pivotally attached to a luminaire housing with a closed position covering an opening to the mounting access compartment and an open position allowing easy user access to the mounting feature(s) in the mounting access compartment. In some embodiments the door forms an exterior surface of the lighting fixture, while in additional embodiments the luminaire's light source is mounted on the luminaire housing and not on the door. In still further embodiments the light source is located externally to the mounting access compartment so that the light source is outside the door when the door is closed. In yet further embodiments the free end of the door is adjacent the light source while the pivoting end of the door is located away from the light source.Type: GrantFiled: February 25, 2020Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: RAB Lighting Inc.Inventors: Glen Oross, Jiang Hu, Zhangyong Ying
