Abstract

A light guide spacer is provided for maintaining sufficient spacing between a diffuser and a light emitting surface of a light guide. The light guide spacer maintaining spacing between the diffuser and the light guide has the exemplary benefit of providing more uniform light emission from the light emitting surface and protecting the light emitting surface (e.g., from physical damage, cleaning solutions, etc.). The light guide spacer may span the length of the light guide and diffuser, maintaining spacing along a length of the light guide, providing mounting of the diffuser and light guide, and maintaining a position of the diffuser, such that it protects the light emitting surface of the light guide.
