Abstract:
1. A luminaire housing designed to be installed to illuminate an illumination area, comprising: a housing supporting a light source, a stationary reflector, an aperture reflector, and a light spread lens, said housing having a light passageway perimeter defining a light passageway; a reflector lip being connected to said light passageway perimeter; said light source being oriented within said housing to direct a central axis of emitted light rays away from the illumination area and towards a reflective surface of said stationary reflector when said luminaire housing is installed; said light spread lens having a first end positioned above at least a portion of said reflector lip and a second end positioned internal to said housing such that said light spread lens is disposed at an angle with respect to said light passageway, wherein a base of said reflector lip helps define a portion of said light passageway perimeter most distal the illumination area when said luminaire is installed; said aperture reflector having a first end positioned proximal to a portion of said light passageway substantially opposite said reflector lip and a second end positioned proximal to said light spread lens such that said aperture reflector is disposed at an angle with respect to said light passageway, said stationary reflector having a contour and orientation such that a majority of light rays emitted from said light source and striking said stationary reflector are reflected toward said light spread lens.
