  • Patent number: 12060990
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to light emitting devices with adaptable glare classes. One example light emitting device includes a carrier. The light emitting device also includes a plurality of light sources disposed on the carrier. Additionally, the light emitting device includes a plurality of lenses disposed on the carrier and covering the plurality of light sources. Each lens of the plurality of lenses includes a lens portion and a base portion surrounding said lens portion. Further, the light emitting device includes a light shielding structure including a plurality of reflective barriers, each having an outer surface and a first reflective inner surface. The outer surface is oriented such that a portion of the light rays emitted by a first light source of the plurality of light sources is transmitted through a first lens of the plurality of lenses and through a first portion of the outer surface.

  • Patent number: 12018814
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to light emitter devices with adaptable glare classes. One example light emitting device includes a carrier. The light emitting device also includes a plurality of light sources disposed on the carrier. Additionally, the light emitting device includes a lens plate disposed on the carrier. The lens plate includes a flat portion and a plurality of lenses covering the plurality of light sources. Further, the light emitting device includes a light shielding structure mounted on said lens plate. The light shielding structure includes a plurality of closed reflective barrier walls, each having an interior bottom edge disposed on the flat portion, an interior top edge at a height above the flat portion, and a reflective surface connecting the interior bottom edge and the interior top edge and surrounding one or more associated lenses of the plurality of lenses. The height is at least 2 mm.

  • Publication number: 20230417393
    Abstract: A light emitting device comprising: a carrier; a plurality of light sources disposed thereon; a plurality of lenses disposed on the carrier covering the light sources, a light shielding structure comprising reflective barriers having an outer surface and a first reflective inner surface; wherein a light transmitting material extends between the outer surface and the first reflective inner surface, said outer surface being oriented such that part of light rays emitted by a first light source of the plurality of light sources is transmitted through a first lens of the plurality of lenses and through a first portion of said outer surface in the direction f the first reflective inner surface. The first reflective inner surface is configured for reflecting the light rays in the direction of a second portion of said outer surface being located further away from a base portion of the first lens than the first portion.

  • Publication number: 20230376642
    Abstract: A method for selecting and sorting at least one luminaire design, said method comprising the following steps performed by a computer means: obtaining a first and a second luminaire installation characteristic associated to a first and a second lighting site, respectively, wherein each of the first and the second lighting site corresponds to a location for installing at least one luminaire neighboring a pathway; selecting, based on the first luminaire installation characteristic, on the second luminaire installation characteristic, on a database with a plurality of luminaire designs, a list comprising for each lighting site at least one suitable luminaire design with at least one suitable configuration parameter of said plurality of luminaire designs, wherein a luminaire design may be the same or different for the first and the second lighting site; sorting the list based on at least one preferential parameter.
