Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A light guide for luminaires is disclosed. In some embodiments the light guide is oriented to receive light from a point light source at a light receiving surface configured to refract incoming light at angles to enable total internal reflection (TIR) of the light down the body of the light guide without loss of light. A foot at the bottom of the body of the light guide includes a first sloped face wherefrom a portion of the light is extracted downward toward a work plane in a batwing distribution and a second sloped face and a return face wherefrom the remaining light is extracted upward.
