Abstract

A cylindrical luminaire is provided whose components align easily, for quicker assembly, despite the lack of intrinsic preferred relative orientation in circular components. Circular end plates affixed in a desired alignment to the end of an elongated reflector have slots to receive a baffle and notches for alignment of a part-cylindrical cover. The reflector, cover and baffle are thereby assembled in proper alignment.
