Abstract
A light guide 2 for a ceiling downlight module 1 provides a batwing light distribution in a compact, flat form factor using edge-lit source light injection. A plurality of solid state light sources 16 inject light from peripheral side surface 12 inward into light guide 2 which has a disc-shaped light guide body 4 having a set of concentric annular steps or faces 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52 between which inwardly-facing light-exit rings or facets 24, 26, 28, 30, 32, 34 are formed. Light exiting the ring-shaped facets 24-34 provides substantial light intensity in lateral directions away from a normal optical axis A of light guide 2. Light exiting from facets 24-34 created an advantageous and aesthetically pleasing appearance of lighted rings.
