  • Publication number: 20200158296
    Abstract: A retrofit assembly has a pan and a light emitting diode (LED) light source. The pan has a base extending along a longitudinal axis. The base is defined by a plurality of segments, including a seat, first and second legs, a first foot, a second foot, and retaining walls. The seat extends in a first plane. The first and second legs angle laterally and vertically away from opposite sides of the seat. The first foot extends away from the first leg within a second plane offset from and parallel to the first plane. The second foot extends away from the second leg within a third plane offset from and parallel to the first plane. The retaining walls extend vertically away from each of the first and second feet toward the first plane. The LED light source supports a plurality of LEDs coupled to the base.

  • Patent number: 10612727
    Abstract: A retrofit assembly includes at least first and second lighting modules, and at least a central hub positioned between the first lighting module and the second lighting module. Each lighting module includes a tray extending along a longitudinal axis and supporting a solid state light source on a seat defining a plane, a set of legs extending from each side of the seat, and a set of wings extending from the legs and parallel to the plane of the seat, the wings including first and second groups of mounting holes. First and second lenses might be provided to extend across a portion of the seats.

  • Publication number: 20170205053
    Abstract: A light fixture includes a frame and a modular driver assembly. The frame includes one or more panels, a first end cap coupled to the one or more panels, the first end cap defining a first end of the frame, and a second end cap coupled to the one or more panels, the second end cap defining a second end of the frame opposite the first end. At least one of the one or more panels, the first end cap, and the second end cap at least partially define a receptacle. The modular driver assembly includes a lighting element and a mounting panel configured to selectively interface with the first end cap and the second end cap to support the modular driver assembly within the receptacle defined by the frame.
