LED lighting fixture

1. An LED lighting fixture comprising:

a one-piece housing portion having a hollow interior cavity defined by a substantially planar interior backwall surface and a surrounding wall extending therefrom to a forward edge;

an LED illuminator on the substantially planar interior backwall surface, the LED illuminator defining an illuminator plane substantially parallel to the planar interior backwall surface, a backwall being a heat sink for transferring heat away from the LED illuminator during operation; and

a reflector member having a reflector cup and an outward flange, the reflector member extending forwardly from the backwall interior surface and substantially across the housing portion to the surrounding wall, the reflector cup defining an aperture configured and positioned such that the LED illuminator is exposed therethrough, the outward flange being secured with respect to the surrounding wall.

2. The LED lighting fixture of claim 1 wherein the housing portion has an uncovered outer surface including a series of fins extending outwardly therefrom to facilitate heat dissipation from the LED illuminator.

3. The LED lighting fixture of claim 1 further including a cover connected to the housing portion, at least a portion of the cover being a light-transmissive lens member.

4. The LED lighting fixture of claim 3 wherein:

the surrounding lateral wall of the housing portion extends to a forward edge at an open front-end of the housing portion; and

the cover is connected at the forward edge.

5. The LED lighting fixture of claim 4 further including a gasket between the cover and the front-housing forward edge such that the cover is sealingly connected to the housing portion.

6. The LED lighting fixture of claim 1 wherein the LED illuminator is a multi-chip LED module.

7. An LED lighting fixture comprising:

a one-piece front-housing portion having a hollow interior cavity defined by a substantially planar interior backwall surface and a front-housing surrounding wall extending therefrom to a forward edge;

an LED illuminator on the substantially planar interior backwall surface, a backwall being a heat sink for transferring heat away from the LED illuminator during operation;

a reflector member having a reflector cup and an outward flange, the reflector member extending forwardly from the backwall interior surface and substantially across the housing portion to the surrounding wall, the reflector cup defining an aperture configured and positioned such that the LED illuminator is exposed therethrough, the outward flange being secured with respect to the surrounding wall; and

a rear-housing portion joined to the front-housing portion, the rear-housing portion having a rear cavity defined by a rear-housing backwall and a rear-housing surrounding wall extending from the rear-housing backwall to a rear-housing forward edge.

8. The LED lighting fixture of claim 7 wherein the rear-housing portion is a one-piece having the rear-housing backwall being integral with the rear-housing surrounding wall.

9. The LED lighting fixture of claim 7 wherein the rear-housing surrounding wall is substantially in alignment with the front-housing surrounding wall.

10. The LED lighting fixture of claim 7 wherein the joined housing portions have heat-transfer contact with one another.

11. The LED lighting fixture of claim 7 including an LED driver within the rear cavity, the rear-housing portion surrounding wall including a wire passage into the rear cavity.

12. The LED lighting fixture of claim 11 wherein the front-housing portion has an uncovered outer surface including a series of fins extending outwardly therefrom to facilitate heat dissipation from the LED illuminator.

13. The LED lighting fixture of claim 12 wherein the rear-housing portion has an uncovered outer surface including a series of fins extending outwardly therefrom facilitating heat dissipation from the LED driver.

14. The LED lighting fixture of claim 13 wherein the fins on the front-housing and rear-housing portions are aligned with one another.

15. The LED lighting fixture of claim 7 wherein both housing portions have a common central axis through the front and rear cavities.

16. The LED lighting fixture of claim 7 wherein cross-sections of both housing portions perpendicular to the axis are substantially circular.
