Side light LED troffer tube. In an aspect, a side light LED tube is provided that includes a tube having at least one light receiving portion configured to receive light and gradient optics formed on the tube. The gradient optics providing a transparency gradient configured to distribute the light to achieve a selected emitted light intensity variation across a selected surface of the tube.

Apparatus providing beamforming and environmental protection for LED light sources. A lens apparatus is provided to protect an LED mounted on a substrate. The lens apparatus includes an alignment feature configured to align the LED to a selected position and a focusing region configured to form a selected beam pattern from light emitted from the LED when located at the selected position. The lens apparatus also includes a compression surface configured to compress the substrate to a heat sink to facilitate heat dissipation from the LED and a fastening feature configured to fasten the lens apparatus to the heat sink to provide an environmentally protective seal, so that when the lens apparatus is fastened to the heat sink the alignment feature aligns the LED to the selected position, the compression surface compresses the substrate to the heat sink, and the protective seal protects the LED from environmental conditions.

Side light led troffer tube

A street light includes a pole and a head attached to the pole. The head includes a light emitting element comprising a plurality of solid state light emitting devices, an optical element, and a reflector configured to reflect light emitted by the solid state light emitting devices to the optical element to produce a light distribution pattern from the head. The light emitted from the solid state emitting devices may be Lambertian patterned light. The Lambertian patterned light may be used to illuminate the reflector. The reflector may be used to transform the Lambertian patterned light to collimated light and direct the collimated light towards the optical element. The optical element may be configured to produce the light distribution pattern from the collimated light.

A light source includes a plurality of solid state light emitters configured to be powered directly from an AC source, and means for providing an electrically insulating and thermally conductive attachment between the solid state light emitters and a heat sink.

Driver-free light-emitting device

Gradient optics for even light distribution of LED light sources. In an aspect, an apparatus is provided for uniform distribution of light emitted from a light source. The apparatus includes a panel coupled to receive the light emitted from the light source, and gradient optics disposed on the panel, the gradient optics providing a matching transparency gradient that is aligned with the light source to evenly distribute the emitted light. In another aspect, an apparatus includes means for receiving the light emitted from the light source, and means for providing a matching transparency gradient that is aligned with the light source to evenly distribute the emitted light.

Gradient optics for even light distribution of LED light sources

A light source includes one or more solid state light emitting devices, a heat spreader thermally coupled to the one or more light emitting devices, and a mounting carriage configured to mount the one or more solid state light emitting devices in a lighting fixture light and thermally couple the heat spreader to the lighting fixture.

Retrofittable LED module with heat spreader

An illumination apparatus includes a solid state light emitting source and a first radiator thermally coupled to the solid state light emitting source, wherein the radiator is configured to be connectable to a second apparatus. The illumination apparatus further includes a one or more electrical conductors coupled to the radiator, wherein the electrical conductors are adapted to couple electrically to the solid state light emitting source.
