Abstract
The present invention relates to different embodiments of lighting fixtures, such as troffers. A lens can be placed between a light engine and a reflector and secured in place by crimping portions of the light engine, reflector, or both to prevent the lens from moving. Troffers according to the present invention can lack a dedicated heat sink, instead sufficiently dissipating heat through the light engine. This can significantly reduce the weight of the troffer. Emitter panels can be directly mounted on a light engine inner surface, or on an internal reflector within the light engine.
