A single edge lit lighting module is disclosed which produces tailored light distributions valuable in many illumination applications. The light distributions attainable using the invention include, but are not limited to, symmetric and asymmetric batwing distributions, asymmetric distributions for perimeter lighting and symmetric distributions. The invention's unique single edge lit construction provide the means for achieving this without need for conventional two lit edges and within a compact form factor with narrow width, particularly well-suited for linear lighting fixtures. Various embodiments also provide means for adjusting light distributions dynamically to control light output characteristics by controlling the input signals to the LED board included in the assembly.

A variety of illumination devices are disclosed that are configured to manipulate light provided by one or more light-emitting elements (LEEs). In general, embodiments of the illumination devices feature one or more optical couplers that redirect illumination from the LEEs to a reflector which then directs the light into a range of angles. In some embodiments, the illumination device includes a second reflector that reflects at least some of the light from the first reflector. In certain embodiments, the illumination device includes a light guide that guides light from the collector to the first reflector. The components of the illumination device can be configured to provide illumination devices that can provide a variety of intensity distributions. Such illumination devices can be configured to provide light for particular lighting applications, including office lighting, task lighting, cabinet lighting, garage lighting, wall wash, stack lighting, and downlighting.

Disclosed is a luminaire structure, comprising at least one light guide segment having opposed surface regions and defining a dimension therebetween. At least one edge region with at least one LED array configured to form an edge-lit optical coupling with the edge region. The light guide segment further includes a first sensor passage extending between the opposed surface regions to receive a sensor. At least one of the light guide segment, the first sensor passage and/or the sensor is configured so that light delivered to the light guide segment through the edge-lit optical coupling illuminates the light guide segment with reduced optical disruption by the presence of the sensor in the first sensor passage, when compared with a non edge-lit optical coupling configuration.

Embodiments of an image panel are provided. The image panel includes a transparent substrate having a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. A first image layer is disposed on the second major surface. A diffuser layer is disposed on the first image layer, and a second image layer is disposed on the diffuser layer. The second image layer includes mask regions and image regions. An optical density of the image panel is at least 3.0 in the mask regions and less than 3.0 in the image regions. The image regions are not visible from the first major surface when light is not incident upon the second major surface. The image regions are visible from the first major surface and form a composite image with the first image layer when light is incident upon the second major surface.

An electric working machine according to one aspect of the present disclosure includes a motor, a driving mechanism, a housing, a grip, a first light emitter, and a light guide. The first light emitter emits light. The light guide has a ring-shape. The light guide is extending along an outer circumference of the housing. The light guide includes a light entering surface receiving the light emitted from the first light emitter. While propagating the light entered from the light entering surface in the light guide, the light guide radiates the light from a surface of the light guide.

Disclosed is a luminaire including a ceiling mountable housing that defines an inner cartridge-receiving cavity accessible at an opening that is accessible in a healthcare space. A cartridge is provided to be received in the housing. The housing and the cartridge are configured to establish a first NSF-compliant sealing interface formed by at least one first barrier member extending along a first peripheral region between the housing and the cartridge to establish a first NSF-compliant pathogen barrier. The cartridge includes a light output region that is configured to locate an interior light guide and an exterior lens with an optical spacing therebetween. A second NSF-compliant sealing barrier interface is provided between the lens and the light guide formed by at least one second barrier member extending along a second peripheral region between the lens and light guide, and which is configured to establish a second NSF-compliant pathogen barrier therein.

A recessed light fixture includes a first light source that emits a first light, a second light source that emits a second light and a reflector positioned to reflect at least a portion of the first light. The recessed light fixture further includes a lightguide trim positioned around at least a portion of the reflector. The second light source is positioned to emit the second light toward a narrow edge of the lightguide trim.

A waveguide illumination system employing an optically transmissive sheet, which is used to guide light using a total internal reflection, and a strip of heat-conducting printed circuit located near an edge of the sheet and having a major surface which portion is located in a space between two opposite edges of the sheet. The waveguide illumination system further includes a linear array of electrically interconnected side-emitting LED packages mounted to a major surface of the strip of heat-conducting printed circuit and optically coupled to the optically transmissive sheet within a light coupling area. A two-dimensional pattern of light extraction features is formed in at least one surface of the optically transmissive sheet such that a density of the light extraction features within the two-dimensional pattern increases with a distance from the light coupling area.

A stepped light guide illumination system employing a planar sheet of an optically transmissive material having a stepped light guiding structure including one or more parallel arrays of channels. Light is input into the stepped light guiding structure using a number of side-emitting LED sources located within the channels and coupled to the stepped light guiding structure at multiple locations. The LED sources are mounted to a printed circuit board extending along one or more channels and having a width which is greater than a width of the respective channel. Light is extracted from the stepped light guiding structure using a two-dimensional pattern of light extraction features formed in a surface of the planar sheet.

An illumination device includes a transparent light guide plate having an end face being an incident surface and a bend between the incident surface and a distal end face opposite to the incident surface, and a light source facing the incident surface. The light guide plate includes first prisms on a first surface extending from the incident surface to the bend to reflect light from the light source entering the light guide plate through the incident surface and emit light through a second surface opposite to the first surface, and second prisms on a third surface extending from the distal end face to the bend to reflect light from the light source entering the light guide plate through the incident surface and emit light through a fourth surface opposite to the third surface.
