LED light fixture
First Claim
1. An LED light fixture comprising:
- a single-piece extrusion including (i) a base having an LED-adjacent surface and an opposite surface and (ii) a heat-dissipating section having heat-dissipating surfaces extending from the opposite surface and being open to water/air flow thereover;
a housing including at least one end-portion secured with respect to the single-piece extrusion and forming at least one venting gap therebetween to provide cool-air ingress to and along the heat-dissipating surfaces by upward flow of heated air therefrom; and
an LED arrangement mounted to the LED-adjacent surface in non-water/air-tight condition with respect to the housing.

Abstract
An LED floodlight fixture includes (1) a housing that has (a) at least one end-portion and (b) a single-piece extrusion including (i) a base having an LED-adjacent surface and an opposite surface and (ii) a heat-dissipating section having heat-dissipating surfaces extending from the opposite surface, and (2) an LED arrangement mounted to the LED-adjacent surface in non-water/air-tight condition with respect to the housing. The housing preferably forms at least one venting gap to provide cool-air ingress to and along the heat-dissipating surfaces by upward flow of heated air therefrom. Additionally and/or alternatively, the base of the single-piece extrusion has one or more venting apertures to provide cool-air ingress for such purpose. One aspect of the invention involves the heat-dissipating section of the extrusion including a closed extruded wireway therealong enclosing wires extending to/from electrical component(s).

31. An LED light fixture comprising:
-
a housing including at least one end-portion; an LED arrangement secured with respect to the housing in non-water/air-tight condition and including a plurality of substantially rectangular elongate LED-array modules each having a predetermined module-lengths associated with the numbers of LEDs on the modules; and a single-piece extrusion secured with respect to the end-portion and including (i) a base having an LED-adjacent surface supporting the LED arrangement and an opposite surface, the LED-adjacent surface having a length which is approximately a dimension selected from (a) the predetermined module-lengths and (b) the sum(s) of the module-lengths of pairs of the LED-array modules and (ii) a heat-dissipating section having heat-dissipating surfaces extending from the opposite surface. - View Dependent Claims (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38)
