Abstract: Channels and channel covers for linear lighting are disclosed. The channels have an upper compartment for linear lighting and a lower compartment that may be used as a raceway, to engage parts, and for rear entry of wires. Endcaps for the channels may engage the lower compartment. Cover-lenses for linear lighting channels are also disclosed. The cover-lenses may include diffusing material and implement a thickness gradient in order to maximize the amount of diffusing material where the emitted light intensity is expected to be greatest. Diverging Fresnel features may be superimposed on the thickness gradient in order to counteract any converging effect of the thickness gradient and cause emitted light to spread more evenly.

Abstract: Lighting and power strips are disclosed. The lighting and power strips include an elongate, narrow printed circuit board (PCB) on which one or both of USB connectors or number of LED light engines are mounted. The PCB may be rigid or narrow, and is typically divided into repeating blocks, with at least one connector and at least one LED light engine in each repeating block. The PCB may be backed by a layer of pressure-sensitive adhesive.

Abstract: Optical systems for linear lighting, particularly linear lighting that is installed in a channel, are disclosed, as are light fixtures that use these optical systems. The optical systems have multiple lenses, usually a first lens adapted to be positioned close to a strip of linear lighting installed in a channel, and a second lens adapted to be positioned farther from the strip of linear lighting. The two lenses are optically aligned with one another such that light from the first lens reaches the second lens. The two lenses may, e.g., form an Abbe condenser lens system. In some embodiments, diffusing features may be integrated into one or both lenses to effect light mixing. The multiple lenses may be adapted to physically support one another, and to engage with structure provided by the channel for securing a cover.

Abstract: Methods for making encapsulated linear lighting with opaque ends are disclosed. Linear lighting is placed in a polymeric channel, and the channel is filled with a resin in order to encapsulate the linear lighting. In order to prevent leaks, the channel is dammed at both ends of the linear lighting with stoppers. The channel has interior engaging features, such as grooves or ridges, that engage with complementary features on the sidewalls of the stoppers to form a seal between the channel and the stoppers. The resin within the channel is caused or allowed to cure. The stoppers are moved back from the cured mass to form a gap. An opaque resin may be poured into the channel and spills into the gap to coat the top and end face or faces of the linear lighting. Once all resin layers are cured, the stoppers are removed from the channel.

Abstract: Junction boxes and partitions for junction boxes are disclosed. The junction boxes have a central area for installation of a driver or another such component and at least one wrap-around compartment in which wire connections can be made. In many cases, the junction box may have two wrap-around compartments, often mirror images of one another, that provide separate spaces for high- and low-voltage wire connections. The interior walls or partitions that create the compartments may be carried by and arise from the base of a junction box, or they may be carried by a separate piece that inserts over the driver, fully encloses or caps it, and also carries partition portions to create fully-divided compartments when used in combination with a junction box base that has no partitions of its own.

Abstract: An in-ground channel for linear lighting is disclosed. In the channel, two upright sidewalls are spaced apart by a bottom. Each of the sidewalls has an inwardly-extending upper support flange proximate to an upper end. The inwardly-extending upper support flanges are aligned with one another on respective sidewalls. A shelf is mounted between the two upright sidewalls at a position below the inwardly-extending support flanges. The shelf divides the in-ground channel into an upper section and a lower section. The upper section houses linear lighting and the lower section provides a raceway. The channel has only a single mounting flange attached to one of the two sidewalls at a position level with the bottom. The channel typically also includes a cover adapted to engage the upper support flanges. The shelf may be removable, mounted via a pair of inwardly-extending lower support flanges, for access to the lower section.

Abstract: Printed circuit board (PCB) arrangements for linear lighting are disclosed. In one embodiment, an elongate, flexible PCB carries light-emitting diode (LED) light engines on one side of the PCB and components on the other. The components may be, e.g., resistors, current controllers, color controllers, or network interfaces. In another embodiment, two PCBs, each with components mounted on a single side, are connected together electrically and mechanically to function as one. In yet another embodiment, an elongate, flexible PCB has a central section that carries LED light engines and other components, and a pair of wings, one on each side of the central section. The wings carry adhesive to secure the PCB to a substrate.

Abstract: Junction boxes for enclosing and making electrical connections to LED drivers are disclosed. The junction boxes include a bottom or base and a cover. Dividers arising from the base divide the junction box into high-voltage and low-voltage compartments. A cut-out open at the top of each divider allows drivers to be placed in a junction box without having to pull wires through holes or openings. Typically, the base is open along one long sidewall, with the cover being L-shaped to complete the enclosure. Various mounting mechanisms are disclosed for securing drivers within junction boxes.
