20090313918 | INCLINED SKYLIT LIGHT WELL - A roof mounted light well oriented to maximize the collection and transport efficiency of solar radiation through an aperture into a building. The device includes a structure having side walls and an upper surface. A light well is located within said structure, and may be partially comprised of said structure. The light well defines a light passageway. The light well is oriented to maximize pass-through of average annualized solar light through said light well. In one embodiment, the light well extends below the roof of the building to a ceiling structure within the building. In some instances, one or both of an upper surface and a lower surface of the light well is horizontal. A reflective element may be provided that projects upwards from the structure. The reflective element may be retractable. | 12-24-2009 |
20100039799 | COMBINED DAYLIGHT ELECTRIC LIGHT FIXTURE FOR BUILDINGS USING ELECTROCHROMIC AND MECHANICAL METHODS - A daylight fixture for replacing a 2′×2′ or 2′×4′ electric lighting fixture in a suspended ceiling grid that incorporates a lighting source. The fixture utilizes a diffuser that distributes sunlight emerging from the exit aperture of a skylit lightwell. The diffuser has multiple parts, including an element mounted above a light source for use in concomitant non-simultaneous distribution of daylighting and electric lighting into an interior space, and a diffusion element mounted below the electric lamp for lighting distribution thereby using diffusion and reflectance elements within the fixture to create desired illuminance distribution within an interior space. In one embodiment a light source and reflector may be positioned below the ceiling for directing illumination onto the ceiling plane for reducing the surface luminance of fixture components to within acceptable standards for interior illumination. Daylight is directed into a building interior from a horizontal roof plane instead of vertical wall planes. | 02-18-2010 |
