Light fixtures for illuminating spaces that use light emitting diode-based light sources and that incorporate chip on board technology that enables the light emitting diode to be mounted directly on a portion of the light fixture. In some embodiments, the light fixture includes a reflector assembly onto which the light emitting diode is directly mounted. In other embodiments, the reflector assembly includes an aperture that receives a board having chip on board technology onto which the light emitting diode is directly mounted. In some embodiments, the light fixture also includes a diffuser for diffusing the light emanating from the light emitting diodes.

LED light fixture

A lighting assembly having a plurality of light sources and a lens matrix having a plurality of lenses. The lens matrix may be positioned relative to the light sources so that each light source resides in a first orientation within one of the lenses and emits a light distribution. Relative translation between the light sources and the lens matrix alters the orientation of the light sources within the lenses, creating a different light distribution. A light source's orientation may change within the same lens, or the light source may translate to a different lens to alter the distribution of its emitted light.

Adjustable light distribution system

Luminaires intended to deliver maximal light flux with improved uniformity, the invention provides in certain embodiments a shielding device or flux manager which produces target extinctions by management of flux to precisely pass flux nearby original arc and through a second bounce off the reflector structure to direct that flux back into the beam. A virtual arc is thus produced in proximity to the original arc with the virtual arc acting as a second source. The flux manager acts to reduce glare and &ldquo;spill&rdquo; light. Performance optimization is further provided in embodiments using the flux manager through additional use of a multi-faceted reflector insert which re-aims light which would have been incident on portions of the reflector structure and which light is blocked by the flux manager. The improved light distribution of the several embodiments of the invention allow use of the flux management concept in lighting fixtures of varying type.

Lighting fixtures having improved light distribution

Luminaires intended to deliver maximal light flux to a playing field with improved uniformity, the invention provides primary reflector structures having shaped facets, the several reflectors being capable of maximizing lumen delivery onto the playing field when considered relative to economy of manufacture. In certain embodiments of the invention, a shielding device or flux manager is employed for producing target extinctions by management of flux to precisely pass flux nearby original arc and through a second bounce off the reflector structure to direct that flux back into the beam. A virtual arc is thus produced in proximity to the original arc with the virtual arc acting as a second source. The flux manager acts to reduce glare and &ldquo;spill&rdquo; light. Performance optimization is further provided in embodiments using the flux manager through additional use of a multi-faceted reflector insert which re-aims light which would have been incident on portions of the reflector structure and which light is blocked by the flux manager. The improved light distribution provided by the luminaires of the invention allow use of fewer luminaires for a given playing field lighting performance.
