Abstract:
An integrated ceiling and light system that incorporates a light module into a ceiling tile. The system may include a grid support system suspended from an overhead support structure that includes at least one grid support element and first and second ceiling tiles supported by the grid support element in an adjacent manner. A nesting cavity may be formed into the first and second ceiling tiles such that a light module may be disposed within the nesting cavity and coupled to the first and second ceiling tiles. The ceiling tiles may be of the type that conceals the grid support element on which it is supported. In one alternative embodiment, the light module and a nesting region of the ceiling tile may include corresponding edge profiles to facilitate mating therebetween to enable coupling of the light source to the ceiling tile.

Claim (Index 20):
The integrated ceiling and light system of  claim 16 , wherein the ceiling tile has an exposed surface, and the light module coupled directly to the ceiling tile and having an exposed surface; and wherein a weight per unit exposed surface area of the light module is equal to or less than a weight per unit exposed surface area of the ceiling tile; and\n wherein a portion of the ceiling tile is removed to form a recess in the front surface of the ceiling tile, and the light module coupled directly to the ceiling tile and disposed within the recess of the ceiling tile; and wherein the light module has a weight that is equal to or less than three times a weight of the removed portion of the ceiling tile; wherein the light module is coupled to the ceiling tile by inserting the coupling element of the light module into the passageway of the ceiling tile, the ceiling tile compressing away from the axis of the passageway to enable the coupling element of the light module to fit within the passageway of the ceiling tile and applying a decompression force onto the coupling element to secure the light module to the ceiling tile wherein the recess has a first non-planar topography, and the rear surface of the light module having a second non-planar topography that corresponds with the first non-planar topography of the floor of the recess of the ceiling tile; wherein the light system further comprises\n a grid support system suspended from an overhead support structure, the grid support system comprising at least one grid support element; \n the ceiling tile at least partially supported by the grid support element, the ceiling tile having a perimetric edge extending between the front and rear surfaces, the ceiling tile having a concealed grid profile formed into the perimetric edge that conceals the grid support element; a nesting cavity formed into the front surface of the ceiling tile and extending to the perimetric edge, the nesting cavity being open at the perimetric edge; and the light module at least partially disposed within the nesting cavity and coupled to the ceiling tile; \n wherein a first electrical conductor operably coupled to a power source and to a first contact member that is embedded within the ceiling panel, and a second electrical conductor operably coupled to the power source and to a second contact member that is embedded within the ceiling panel; and a light module having first and second electrical contacts, the light module mounted to the ceiling tile so that the first electrical contact of the light module is electrically coupled to the first contact member and the second electrical contact of the light module is electrically coupled to the second contact member; wherein optionally, the ceiling panel is a vertical panel suspended from the support structure, the vertical panel having a bottom edge that faces an interior space, a top edge opposite the bottom edge, first and second side edges extending between the top and bottom edges, a front surface, and a rear surface opposite the front surface; and the light module mounted directly to one of the edges of the vertical panel.
