  • Patent number: 11268667
    Abstract: Systems and methods for retrofitting an existing troffer light fixture, or for a new installation application, comprising a housing and a door assembly, wherein the door assembly comprises four side walls, a recessed cavity, a light source, one or more lens, and at least one support extension supporting the assembly are disclosed. The support extension may be a fixed horizontal protrusion of the frame of the retrofit assembly and configured to engage a T-bar of a ceiling system. The protrusion may rest on a horizontal portion of the T-bar to thereby support the assembly. Existing troffer light fixtures can be retrofitted to include a more efficient light source, replace components of a damaged troffer style light fixture, and/or otherwise upgrade or replace an existing fixture. The retrofit assembly may enable existing fixtures to be modified from a number of different fixture types without the need to remove and replace components of the existing fixture.

  • Publication number: 20190341326
    Abstract: A novel heat sinking technology, uniquely adaptive to LED lighting devices in a generally LED array format containing multiple openings on said heat sink's base portions and optionally fin portions providing “short path cooling” technology. The “short path cooling” technology is thoroughly taught with multiple examples. Also taught, are methods of heat sink area maintenance when said openings are placed on said heat sinks. Indeed, even surface area increases are shown to be possible when multiple openings are placed on said heat sinks. Lastly, other non-LED semiconductor cooling is discussed and illustrated in various figures using said “short path cooling” technology.
