Light fixtures and multi-plane light modifying elements

摘要

Certain example implementations of the disclosed technology include a light emitting device. The light emitting device may include an enclosure with four sides and a top edge surface associated with each of the four sides. The enclosure may be capable of mounting on a grid frame of a suspended ceiling such that a portion of the top edge surfaces contacts a portion of the grid frame. The light emitting device may further include a light modifying element characterized by a substrate with four or more edges, a back surface disposed on the top edge surface of each of the four sides of the enclosure, and a front surface. In certain example embodiments the substrate may further comprise two or more edge trusses. A periphery of the light-emitting front surface may be capable of contacting the grid frame after the light emitting device is mounted to the grid frame.

主权项

1. A light emitting device comprising:
an enclosure comprising:
a back surface;four sides;a top edge surface associated with each of the four sides; andan opening defined by the four sides, wherein the top edge surfaces are disposed adjacent to the opening, and wherein the enclosure is capable of mounting on a grid frame of a suspended ceiling such that a portion of the top edge surface of at least two of the four sides contacts a portion of the grid frame; and a light modifying element capable of modifying light from a light source, the light modifying element characterized by:
a substrate with four or more edges;a light-receiving back surface mounted on the entirety of, or a portion of the top edge surface of each of the four sides of the enclosure; anda light-emitting front surface, wherein all or a portion of a periphery of the light-emitting front surface is configured for contacting the grid frame after the light emitting device is mounted to the grid frame.
