Abstract

Reduced glare light fixtures are provided. In one example implementation, a reduced glare light fixture includes a light emitting diode (LED) system. The LED system includes at least one LED module having one or more LED devices. The reduced glare light fixture further includes a bezel physically coupled to the LED system engine. The bezel has one or more glare reduction tubes. At least one of the one or more glare reduction tubes is configured to be approximately coaxial with one LED of the one or more LED devices.

Claims (38)

1. A light engine module, comprising:

a circuit board comprising at least a first light emitting source and a second light emitting source;

a bezel; and

a plurality of glare reduction tubes disposed on the bezel,

wherein:

the first light emitting source emits light into a first glare reduction tube of the plurality of glare reduction tubes; and

the second light emitting source emits light into a second glare reduction tube of the plurality of glare reduction tubes.

2. The light engine module of claim 1 , further comprising:

a first optic positioned within the first glare reduction tube; and

a second optic positioned within the second glare reduction tube.

3. The light engine module of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes comprises translucent material.

4. The light engine module of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes comprises opaque material.

5. The light engine module of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes is removably coupled to the bezel.

6. The light engine module of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes is integrally formed with the bezel.

7. The light engine module of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first light emitting source and the second light emitting sources comprises a light emitting diode (LED) light source.

8. The light engine module of claim 1 , wherein:

the plurality of glare reduction tubes extend from a surface of the bezel.

9. The light engine module of claim 8 , wherein the surface of the bezel comprises an opaque material or a translucent material.

10. A bezel for a reduced glare light fixture, the bezel comprising:

a surface; and

a plurality of glare reduction tubes disposed on the surface,

wherein when the bezel is mounted to a circuit board comprising at least a first light emitting source and a second light emitting source:

the first light emitting source emits light into a first glare reduction tube of the plurality of glare reduction tubes; and

the second light emitting source emits light into a second glare reduction tube of the plurality of glare reduction tubes.

11. The bezel of claim 10 , wherein the surface comprises an opaque material.

12. The bezel of claim 10 , wherein the surface comprises a translucent material.

13. The bezel of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes comprise an opaque material.

14. The bezel of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes comprises a translucent material.

15. The bezel of claim 10 , wherein at least one of the plurality of glare reduction tubes is removably coupled to the surface.

16. A reduced glare light fixture, comprising:

a housing; and

a light emitting diode (LED) module positioned within the housing, the LED module comprising:

a circuit board comprising at least a first light emitting source and a second light emitting source;

a bezel; and

a plurality of glare reduction tubes disposed on the bezel,

wherein:

the first light emitting source emits light into a first glare reduction tube of the plurality of glare reduction tubes; and

the second light emitting source emits light into a second glare reduction tube of the plurality of glare reduction tubes.
