Abstract
A solid state floor lighting unit comprises a printed circuit board carrying an array of solid state lighting elements and a protective cover. The cover has openings or other light output regions aligned with the solid state lighting elements to provide light output. The protective cover has at least one edge with downwardly projecting spaced supporting tabs. These tabs form a comb structure which enables adjacent units to be interlinked. In this way a reduced pitch between lighting elements across the join between units is made possible, but the protective cover still provides the required stiffness and robustness to carry heavy loads.
