Abstract:
The T-bar includes an elongate rigid spine extending between terminal ends including either a fixed anchor or adjustable anchor for attachment to adjacent T-bars or other supports. An upper heat sink is provided on an upper portion of the spine to enhance heat transfer from the T-bar to air surrounding upper portions of the T-bar. A light housing is provided on a lower portion of the T-bar which is configured to support a lighting module therein, such as a light emitting diode (LED) light. A lower heat sink is provided above this light housing and integrated into a rest shelf which supports ceiling tiles adjacent the T-bar. A power supply is provided which can be removably attached to the T-bar and provide appropriately conditioned power for the lighting module.

Claim (Index 8):
A T-Bar with a light source for use in a suspended ceiling, the T-bar with light source comprising:\n an elongated spine extending from a first terminal end to a second terminal end, the elongated spine being a thin planar structure with a longitudinal edge extending between the first and second terminal ends; a rest shelf spaced from the longitudinal edge of the elongated spine extending to both lateral sides of the elongated spine, wherein the rest shelf is positioned so that at least one ceiling tile may rest upon each lateral side of the rest shelf extending from the elongated spine; a plurality of anchors, each anchor located at each terminal end of the elongated spine and connectable to either a second T-bar with light source or a common T-bar used for a suspended ceiling frame; and a light housing, the light housing located on a bottom side of the rest shelf and containing the light source such that the light source is positioned below the at least one suspended ceiling tile resting upon the rest shelf.
