Description

FIG. 1 is a bottom perspective view of an OLED lighting fixture with suspension showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a top perspective view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a front elevational view thereof; the rear elevation, and the left and right side elevations being identical thereto;

FIG. 4 is a rotated elevational view thereof; and

FIG. 5 is a bottom plan view thereof.

FIG. 6 is a bottom perspective view of an OLED lighting fixture with suspension showing an alternative embodiment of our new design;

FIG. 7 is a top perspective view thereof;

FIG. 8 is a front elevational view thereof; the rear elevation, and the left and right side elevations being identical thereto;

FIG. 9 is a rotated elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 10 is a bottom plan view thereof.

“OLED” means Organic Light-Emitting Diode. The characteristic feature of the design resides in the overall shape of the OLED lighting fixture in combination with an illumination pattern on the bottom surface of the lighting fixture when turned on and further in combination with a suspension element. The suspension element could be a flexible cable or a rigid stem. In FIGS. 1-4 and 6-9, the revealed top surface of the OLED lighting fixture has no surface shading to indicate that the visual characteristics of the top of the OLED lighting fixture form no part of the claimed design. The stippled surface on the bottom of the lighting fixture indicates an area of illumination when the OLED lighting fixture is turned on. The non-stippled surface on the bottom of the lighting fixture indicates an area that is not illuminated when the OLED lighting fixture is turned on. The area of the OLED lighting fixture represented by the stippled surface can be transparent, translucent or opaque, and the area represented by the non-stippled surface can be transparent, translucent or opaque. These separate illuminated and non-illuminated areas do not have to exhibit the same transparent, translucent or opaque characteristic.

The suspension element of the design is cut-away at the top to indicate indeterminate length. In FIGS. 1, 5-6, and 10, the broken line showing of a suspension element attachment cap at the bottom of the OLED lighting fixture is provided for illustrative purposes only and forms no part of the claimed design.
