LED exit light fixture
First Claim
1. An emergency light fixture comprising a frame, a cover movably mounted on the frame for movement between an open position and a closed position adjacent the frame, said cover including translucent and non-translucent portions therein, said translucent portions having a predetermined configuration;
- and an array of light emitting diodes mounted on said frame beneath said cover;
said light emitting diodes being positioned in the frame directly beneath the non-translucent portion of the cover and adjacent the translucent portions thereof when the cover is in the closed position;
said cover having individual light reflective surfaces respectively associated with each of said light emitting diodes and located on the cover to be directly above the respective diodes within the non-translucent portions of the cover when the cover is in its closed position; and
said light emitting diodes being mounted on a board in said frame having a surface facing said cover and said surface being coated with a reflective material.

Abstract
An emergency light fixture is disclosed which includes a frame and a cover for the frame that has translucent and non-translucent portions thereon. The translucent portions of the cover define the word EXIT. The cover is indirectly lit from the interior of the fixture by an array of light emitting diodes mounted in the frame beneath the cover. The light emitting diodes are positioned directly beneath the non-translucent portions of the cover adjacent the translucent portions thereof in order to provide a uniform illumination to the translucent portions of the cover.
