Patent attributes
The present disclosure relates to a light fixture for absorbing sound energy. The light fixture is composed of a body comprising a set of discs and a set of supporting elements. As an example, the discs may be annular discs with a central opening for receiving a lamp fitting and/or a reflector. The supporting elements may be pillars that are fixedly attached to the discs e.g. using a plurality of fittings. The discs may comprise a sound absorbing material, such that the light fixture is suitable for absorbing sound energy. This is particularly useful in large indoor environments such as open offices, lobbies, halls, and auditoriums, which all benefit from improved acoustics. The light fixture may comprise two or more light sources, e.g. for distributing light both radially and downwards. In one embodiment, the light fixture is a pendant light.
