  • Patent number: 11873928
    Abstract: T-slot interconnects that include a body portion and two orthogonally elongated interlock tabs positioned on opposed sides of the body portion are used for building T-bar structures, including grow-light canopies. In operation, the elongated interlock tabs are placed into T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars. The T-slot interconnects are then rotated to secure the elongated interlock tabs within the T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars and, thereby, secure the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars together through the T-slot interconnects.

  • Publication number: 20230003369
    Abstract: The LED grow-light system includes one or more grow-light canopies with linear LED light bars to provide upward and/or downward lighting in a central illumination area. The LED grow-light system or grow-light canopies are preferably constructed using T-slot interconnects that lock into T-channels of the T-slot bars and/or T-slot light bars and the LED grow-light systems are housed in a controlled modular grow-light containers that include sky-light structures and/or light tubes that allow the controlled modular grow containers to be stacked or placed next to each other and minimize the footprint for growing plants.

  • Publication number: 20220008603
    Abstract: A germicidal light fixture includes a germicidal camber with a UV or UVC light engine therein for treating air. The germicidal chambers is in communication with ventilation that includes for examples fans the draws untreated air into the germicidal chamber and pushes treated air out of the germicidal chamber. The germicidal light chamber is preferably accessible for service and the germicidal light fixture includes reveres occupancy detection for turning off the UV or UVC light engine when occupants are detected at or near the germicidal light fixture. The germicidal light fixture can also include task lighting for providing work-space lighting when occupants are detected at or near the germicidal light fixture.

  • Patent number: 10999980
    Abstract: A LED grow-light system is disclosed. The LED grow-light system includes dual-layer grow-light canopies with linear LED light bars to provide upward and downward lighting in a central illumination area. The LED light bars are preferably configured to move up and down relative to a grow bed through stepper motors attached to the grow-light canopies and vertical pole structures for supporting the grow-light canopies over the grow bed. The LED light bars include modulated LEDs, or LED arrays, to provide uniform light distribution over the grow bed while maintaining grow-light canopy footprints that are similar in size to the grow bed.
