Abstract: The LED lamp has an enclosure defined by a housing and an optically transmissive exit surface. A base is connected to the enclosure. The housing is connected to the base at a proximal end and diverges as the housing extends away from the base to a distal end. The optically transmissive exit surface is connected to the distal end of the housing. A LED board is positioned transversely to a longitudinal axis of the enclosure adjacent the distal end to define a first interior space and a second interior space. A passage communicates the first interior space with the second interior space. A first aperture and a second aperture in the enclosure communicate the first interior space and the second interior space with the exterior of the lamp.

Abstract: A light fixture with a textured reflector is disclosed. Embodiments of the present invention provide for a lighting system in which LEDs face, and the majority of light form the LED light source is incident on, a textured back reflector while producing minimal glare and minimal imaging of the light source. Such a reflector may be referred to as a retro-reflector. The reflector for the light fixture can be made from a relatively inexpensive material such as polycarbonate, which without texturing has a specular or semi-specular surface. Further, a diffuse white layer to provide color mixing or prevent glare and reflections is not needed. The textured reflector can be textured by way of an imprinted pattern or by roughening, and can be extruded. A prismatic texture may be used. The texturing can also be spatially varied.
