A light emitting diode (LED) lamp includes a lamp housing formed of a pair of housing members connected to each other in a horizontal direction. A printed circuit board (PCB) is detachably connected to an inside of the lamp housing, and includes at least one LED mounted to one surface of the PCB. A power supply unit (PSU) is electrically connected with the PCB in the lamp housing to supply power to the PCB.

An LED light fixture includes a heat-sink, a circuit board thereon with a plurality of spaced LED light sources, and a one-piece optical member with a plurality of secondary lenses over corresponding LED light sources and having a lens flange surrounding the lenses and integral with each lens. The optical member includes a polymeric carrier portion surrounding the lenses, overlapping with and molded onto the lens flanges across such overlapping, and extending therefrom to a peripheral edge portion. The optical member has an outer surface infused with an ultraviolet inhibitor to increase long-term weathering performance. The infused outer surface includes an outer layer of each lens and extends to form an outer layer of the lens flanges and therebeyond to form an outer layer of the carrier portion. The invention also includes a method of manufacturing such infused optical member.

A lighting apparatus includes a circuit board and light emitting diodes (LEDs) attached to the circuit board. The LEDs are arranged in an array of row and columns and are attached to the circuit board are arranged in a single plane. A support substrate supports the circuit board. Optical elements are configured to redirect light from the plurality of LEDs. Each optical element is substantially the same as all other optical elements. Each LED is associated with a single optical element and each optical element is associated with a single LED. The lighting apparatus is configured to direct light away from the circuit board so that the light is directed so as to illuminate a substantially rectangular area that is off-center relative to the light assembly. The substantially rectangular area has an edge that is at least 14 feet in length.

A high bay luminaire includes a heat sink having a substantially disc-shaped configuration. A light emitter, reflector, and housing are connected to the heat sink. The housing includes a first arm, a second arm, a top bar, a bottom bar, and a door moveable between an open position and a closed position. A driver is connected to and moveable with the door.

A solid state lighting (SSL) with a solid state emitter (SSE) having thermally conductive projections extending into an air channel, and methods of making and using such SSLs. The thermally conductive projections can be fins, posts, or other structures configured to transfer heat into a fluid medium, such as air. The projections can be electrical contacts between the SSE and a power source. The air channel can be oriented generally vertically such that air in the channel warmed by the SSE flows upward through the channel.

Embodiments disclosed herein describe systems and methods for heat sinks within light fixtures. In embodiments, the heat sink may be a passive system that creates a cross-flow thermal management system to dissipate large amounts of heat in a slim light fixture. Embodiments may utilize a series of wings assembled in a linear design that are positioned perpendicular to the length of the light fixture to preserve the cross-flow heat sink.

The invention relates to a heat sink (10, 60, 120, 150) having a body (12) which includes a channel-shaped mounting formation configured to hold an electronic unit (40) in the form of an LED strip captive therein. The channel-shaped mounting formation defines has a slot which includes a mouth (22) having a transverse width which is less than a width of the electronic unit (40), and a nook (30) which is configured to permit mounting of the electronic unit (40) to the heat sink by passing the electronic unit through the mouth (22) and angularly displacing the electronic unit (40) relative to the mounting formation of the body (12). Instead of sliding the LED strip into the slot, which could damage the strip or result in poor application of thermal paste, the strip is mounted by applying paste and angularly and transversely displacing the strip relative to the body.

Embodiments may utilize a series of exposed fins, which increase the surface area of the heat sink creating additional air flow. As hotter air rises within the system, cooler is drawn into the heatsink. The fins may be exposed on both sides of the longitudinal axis, allowing cooler air to be drawn towards the longitudinal axis above the heatsink and flow upward. This process may cool the fins. Additionally, the spacing between the fins may have to be wide enough to allow for air to freely enter the heatsink.

A lighting fixture includes a fixture housing. A circuit board is positioned in the fixture housing. The circuit board includes a driver circuit. A plurality of light emitters are disposed on the circuit board. The light emitters are operatively connected to the driver circuit to produce a light output. A temperature sensor is disposed on the circuit board, the temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature of the circuit board and output a signal. The driver circuit is configured to reduce the light output in response to the signal from the temperature sensor.
