  • Patent number: 10655834
    Abstract: A lighting apparatus for a building structure. The apparatus includes a plurality of LEDs and a holder having a heat sink for holding the LEDs along a length of the holder and dissipating heat from the LEDs. The apparatus includes a first bracket which extends outward from the holder in a first direction on a first side of the holder and is moveably attached to the holder. The apparatus includes a second bracket which extends outward from the holder in a second direction on a second side of the holder and is moveably attached to the holder. The apparatus includes a first screen attached to the first bracket on the first side of the holder and a second screen attached to the second bracket on the second side of the holder. When the first bracket is moved, the first screen is moved relative to the holder on the first side of the holder; and when the second bracket is moved, the second screen is moved relative to the holder on the second side of the holder.
