Abstract: In a suspended ceiling a housing is provided including a light located within an interior chamber having a lower opening. The housing includes lateral sides with slots therein which can receive fasteners coupled to ends of other T-bars. Ends of the housing can include fasteners, such as tabs or clips, which attach ends of the housing to adjacent supports, such as other T-bars within the suspended ceiling. In one embodiment, the housing has a constant cross-sectional form. The cross-sectional form can include lateral sides defined by lateral cross-tees with a vertical spine and lateral rest shelf upon which an edge of the ceiling tile can be supported. A central cross-tee can optionally be provided extending down from upper portions of the housing and between diagonal spans on upper lateral portions of the housing. One or more diffusers span the lower opening of the housing.

Abstract: A lighting assembly is provided that includes a light fixture in combination with a support grid such as a drop ceiling t-bar. The light fixture can be configured to use a t-bar as the main form of support. The light fixture can be push-fit onto a t-bar or use a clip to join two or more portions of the light fixture to an installed t-bar. Once attached to the T-bar, the light fixture itself can provides support for a ceiling tile. Various embodiments are provided which achieve a variety of light distributions useful in typical illumination applications. Both recessed and suspended fixture types are achieved in various embodiments which are particularly well suited for LED lighting.
