Elongated LED luminaire and associated methods
First Claim
1. A luminaire comprising:
- a lamp comprising;
an outer structure,a light source configured to emit a source light and carried by the outer structure,a middle structure connected to the outer structure, anda bi-pin base connected to the middle structure;
a light guide having an inner surface and an outer surface; and
a heat dissipating frame having a contact surface in thermal communication with the outer surface of the light guide and comprising a plurality of heat sink rods positioned to abut each other to define the contact surface of the heat dissipating frame;
wherein the light source is configured to emit the source light so as to be incident upon the inner surface of the light guide; and
wherein the light guide is configured to change the source light into a shaped light that illuminates a space proximate to the luminaire.

Abstract
A luminaire comprising a lamp comprising an outer structure, a light source configured to emit a source light and carried by the outer structure, a middle structure connected to the outer structure, and a bi-pin base connected to the middle structure. The lamp may further comprise a light guide having an inner surface and an outer surface and a heat dissipating frame having a contact surface in thermal communication with the outer surface of the light guide and comprising a plurality of heat sink rods positioned to abut each other to define the contact surface of the heat dissipating frame. The light source may be configured to emit the source light so as to be incident upon the inner surface of the light guide. The light guide may be configured to change the source light into a shaped light that illuminates a space proximate to the luminaire.

11. A luminaire comprising:
-
a lamp comprising; an outer structure, a light source configured to emit a source light and carried by the outer structure, a middle structure connected to the outer structure, and a bi-pin base connected to the middle structure; a light guide having an inner surface and an outer surface and comprising; a bi-pin connector configured to mechanically attach to a standard fluorescent socket, and a mounting aperture positioned opposite the bi-pin connector, wherein the mounting aperture is sized to fittedly receive at least one of the bi-pin base and the middle structure of the lamp such that a portion of the outer structure of the lamp is positioned adjacent to the light guide; and a heat dissipating frame having a contact surface in thermal communication with the outer surface of the light guide; wherein the light source is configured to emit the source light so as to be incident upon the inner surface of the light guide; and wherein the light guide is configured to change the source light into a shaped light that illuminates a space proximate to the luminaire. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
