Definitions

  • the present invention relates to light guides for light fixtures for gas discharge lamps. More particularly, the invention relates to a light guide suitable for light fixtures for gas discharge lamps having one or more lighting devices within the fixture.
  • Gas discharge lamps are highly efficient sources of light energy.
  • Gas discharge lamps are typically formed of gas filled vessels having electrodes. In order to power the lamp, a high voltage is applied across the electrodes at a high frequency. Gases within the tube become ionized as they are excited by high energy radiation. The light output of the lamp is thus directly related to the input power signal characteristics .
  • the present invention comprises a light guide that is particularly suitable for light fixtures having one or more lighting devices disposed within a housing, near the perimeter of a chamber in the housing.
  • One possible light source may be fluorescent or neon tubes, although other lighting devices such as light emitting diodes may also be used.
  • the light guide according to the present invention comprises a translucent polymeric member, one or more lighting devices disposed near an edge of the translucent member, a reflector that substantially surrounds those portions of the lighting device which are not adjacent to the translucent member, a reflector disposed behind the translucent member, and a prismatic layer disposed or integrally formed with the output surface of the translucent polymeric member.
  • the output surface and/or back surface of the translucent member may be sand blasted to improve the light reflecting characteristics of the translucent member.
  • the translucent member includes reflectors adjacent to its side surfaces and its back surface, and an integrally- formed prismatic layer on the output surface of the translucent member.
  • the prisms are two, or more faceted prisms that collimate light by reflecting back any light which strikes them at a substantially 90 degree angle, and by transmitting and collimating any light which strikes the prism from the translucent member side at an obtuse angle.
  • the lighting devices are disposed along one or more side surfaces of the translucent member, and the reflector is disposed on the sides of the lighting devices opposite to the side adjacent to the translucent member. As a result, substantially all the light from the lighting devices is transmitted into the translucent member, and out the upper or output surface of the translucent member into the prisms adjacent to the output surface.
  • a substantially cylindrical translucent member has one or more curved lighting devices disposed therein.
  • One or more prismatic layers may be disposed radially outward from the lighting devices and adjacent thereto, so as to collimate light striking the prismatic layers, and transmitting the light back toward the center of the lighting fixture and toward the centrally-disposed translucent member.
  • These prismatic layers are preferably injection molded.
  • the rounded lighting fixture also has a centrally-disposed translucent member with a prismatic layer adjacent to an outer surface thereof; the prismatic layer is preferably integrally formed with the translucent member.
  • the reflector that is provided on the side of the lighting device opposite to the translucent member may be configured as two adjacent parabolas. This arrangement will efficiently reflect more light from behind the lighting device back into the centrally disposed translucent member.
  • the reflectors used in the present invention may be made from polyethylene (sold under the trademark TYVEK) or from other diffusively reflective materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polyolefin, polyethylene or titanium dioxide.
  • the translucent member may be made from acrylic or other translucent polymers that may be readily injection molded.
