Patent number: 8911104Abstract: A mounting bracket for a linear LED tube-type light to be installed principally inside of display cases, shelves and soffits. In one embodiment, a cylindrical bracket is mounted to each side of a display case and an LED tube light (a semi-cylinder with mounted LED circuit boards) is inserted into these brackets and secured with a set screw. This bracket/tube system allows for power harness wiring through either side of the case or through a down rod at various positions to the bracket. Additional embodiments allow for mounting said brackets to the underside of the case glass or side walls using adhesive. Further embodiments incorporate this same cylindrical bracket design to mount the LED light tube to the front edge of shelves or on to a flat pedestal for mounting to a variety of flat surfaces such as a wall or ledge. Additional related embodiments are described and shown herein.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2011Date of Patent: December 16, 2014Inventor: Scott Brian Wylie

Patent number: 8905577Abstract: A lamp housing uses a tubular metal support functional as a heat radiator within which is an electrical circuit board having a component mounting surface, and in opposition thereto, a thermal transfer surface positioned for conducting heat, from the circuit board to the metal support. A clear lens is secured to the metal support, and a pair of ribs integral to the clear lens extend into contact with the component mounting surface of the circuit board thereby urging the thermal transfer surface toward the metal support for good thermal contact and heat transfer. A thermal transfer tape or paste may be used between the circuit board and the metal support surface upon which it rests. The circuit board may be laid onto the metal support without sliding it into grooves and the clear lens may be snapped into place over the circuit board engaging grooves in the metal support.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2011Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Inventors: William Henry Meurer, Stan Levy

Patent number: 8899780Abstract: A linear light assembly having an elongate tray and a plurality of moveable lighting packages. The elongate tray may provide both mechanical support and thermal management for the plurality of moveable lighting packages. The elongate tray may comprise a medial channel portion with a planar track member and two opposing rim members projecting perpendicularly outward therefrom. Each flange portion may have a U-shaped cross-section. Each moveable package may comprise an assembly tray and an optical assembly having at least one light-emitting device (LED). Each moveable lighting package may be adjustably positioned along and independently removed from the front side of the track member of the elongate tray. Any segmentation of the elongate tray may be characterized by a heat dissipation rate not less than a combined heat generation rate of all moveable lighting packages carried by the segment. A method aspect includes installation of the linear light assembly.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2013Date of Patent: December 2, 2014Assignee: Lighting Science Group CorporationInventors: Fredric S. Maxik, Addy S. Widjaja, Mark Andrew Oostdyk, Robert R. Soler, David E. Bartine

Patent number: 8888315Abstract: This invention provides a vapor-tight luminaire with a housing that defines a continuous and unbroken sealed tubular lens extending in a longitudinal direction. The housing includes a pair of end cap structures removably and sealably mounted on each of opposing respective housing ends. The housing removably supports a lamp assembly that can include various reflector arrangements. The lamp assembly can include fluorescent tubular lamps and can include electronics, such as a ballast circuit. Illustratively, a supporting rail suspended from each of the opposing housing ends by respective posts slidably supports the lamp assembly. In this manner each of the housing and the lamp assembly are constructed and arranged to allow the lamp assembly to be passed into and out of the housing along the supporting rail when at least one of the end cap structures is removed from the respective one of the housing ends.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2012Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: Greendot Technologies, LLCInventors: Richard D. Edwards, Stanley A. Katz

Patent number: 8888306Abstract: The invention provides an elongated lighting fixture with multiple light emitting diodes (LEDs) arrayed in two groups that are angled to each other. The fixture includes an elongated housing having a pair of side walls with at least one fin to dissipate heat. Each side wall has a support member extending upward at angle from the side wall. A generally transparent cover is connected to the housing and extends between opposed ends of the housing. A first group of LEDs and a second group of LEDs are mounted to the first support member and the second support member, respectively. First and second interconnection board assemblies are affixed to respective support members beneath the group of LEDs. When the first and second interconnection board assemblies are energized by an internal power source, current travels from each interconnection assembly through fasteners to each group of LEDs for illumination.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2012Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: ElectraLED Inc.Inventors: James Thomas, David Lynd, Gary Gatesman, Jim Mosier, Bryan T.

Patent number: 8882298Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods are provided for achieving desirable light distributions. In one exemplary embodiment, the light module includes a body having a pair of opposed complex parabolic bodies, an LED light source, and an inner reflective surface. The light source can be configured to provide for a desired light distribution, such as a bat wing light distribution. The provided light distribution can be such that it is not the result of passing light through a secondary optics component. Thus, while in some embodiments the LED module can include a glare reduction lens disposed over at least part of the LED light source, the lens may not affect the resulting light distribution configuration. Exemplary configurations of other systems, devices, kits, and methods associated with the teachings are also provided.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2012Date of Patent: November 11, 2014Assignee: RemPhos Technologies LLCInventor: David Gershaw
