1. A lighting fixture, comprising:
- a translucent member, including an output surface;
a curved back surface having a first reflector thereon;
first and second side surfaces;
an end surface;
a blocking surface;
an intermediate surface adjacent said second curved back surface and said blocking surface; and
at least one light emitting diode (LED) interconnected with said intermediate surface, wherein said blocking surface prevents light output from a side of said at least one diode from directly reaching said output surface, and wherein said curved back surface and said blocking surface are integrally formed as one piece with the translucent member.

Abstract
A lighting fixture is disclosed which provides a substantially uniform elongated light output, yet is powered by only a minimum number of inexpensive light emitting diodes. The lighting fixture has a curved back surface and a selected focal area to provide a substantially uniform output. Multiple LEDs may be controlled by a controller to provide special lighting effects. Each of the side surfaces and the back surface may include a reflector. The lighting fixtures preferably have flat end surfaces so they may be placed end-to-end to create an elongated light bar of any desired length.

25. A lighting fixture, comprising:
-
a translucent member, including an output surface;
a first curved back surface having a first reflector thereon;
first and second side surfaces;
an end surface;
at least one light emitting diode (LED) interconnected with said end surface;
wherein said translucent member includes a first light emitting section including said first curved back surface; and
a second light emitting section including a second curved back surface having a second reflector thereon;
wherein said second light emitting section includes an intermediate surface adjacent said second curved back surface;
a second light emitting diode interconnected with said intermediate surface; and
a blocking surface adjacent said intermediate surface, said blocking surface substantially preventing light output from a side of said second light emitting diode from directly reaching said output surface, wherein said first and second light emitting sections are integrally formed as one piece with the translucent member. - View Dependent Claims (26, 27)
