Abstract: A modular lighting fixture assembly. Multiple light pods can be removably mounted on both lateral sides of a mechanical thermal element, such as an elongated heat sink. The pods can be easily removed for cleaning, maintenance, and transport, for example. A light strip including multiple LEDs can be mounted to a surface of the heat sink on both sides. Each pod has a portion cutaway such that when the pods are mounted to the heat sink, the cutaway portions align with the light strips. Thus, when mounted, the light strip can be adjacent to or protrude into an interior cavity of the pod. The interior surfaces of the pods are shaped to redirect light in a particular output profile. The assembly may be mounted to a ceiling and used as an overhead fixture designed to efficiently light an aisle in a retail space or a storage facility, for example.

Abstract: Optical elements having components made from high refractive index materials (RI≦1.6) and lamp assemblies incorporating such elements. Various optical elements, such as total internal reflection lenses, can be fabricated from materials having a higher index of refraction than materials typically used in such elements. The compact optical elements have at least one internal reflection surface that directs radiant energy (e.g., light) from a receiving end to a transmitting end. By using a high refractive index material, a lens can be fabricated that directs a greater portion of the light emitted from a source into the lens toward the transmitting end of the lens. Thus, less of the light spills out of the lens at a surface where emission is not intended, reducing the number of lossy bounces needed to direct the light in a particular direction.

Abstract translation: 具有由高折射率材料（RI＆nlE; 1.6）制成的元件的光学元件和并入这些元件的灯组件。 诸如全内反射透镜的各种光学元件可以由具有比在这些元件中通常使用的材料更高的折射率的材料制成。 紧凑的光学元件具有至少一个内部反射表面，其将辐射能（例如，光）从接收端引导到发射端。 通过使用高折射率材料，可以制造将来自源的光的更大部分引导到透镜中的透镜朝向透镜的透射端的透镜。 因此，较少的光在不需要发射的表面处从透镜中流出，减少了在特定方向上引导光所需的有损跳跃的数量。

Abstract: An LED lighting system using a retro-formed component is disclosed. Embodiments of the invention make use of a component that has an external form factor of a structural element of a pre-existing light fixture. The component, for example, can be a power supply, or a heat sink with a connector. The component allows an LED lighting unit to be used without having the power supply and/or a heat sink take up space within what a consumer would normally see as the light bulb. In some embodiments the form factor is that of a screw-in socket such as an Edison E-26 socket. A connector or connectors can allow removal of the power supply portion of the lighting unit, or of the LED and possibly an optical element from the power supply.
