Publication number: 20130322097Abstract: In accordance with one embodiment, a torchiere style lamp having a knock down profile includes a base; a pole attached at a bottom end to the base; and a socket assembly attached to a top end of the pole. The lamp also includes a torchiere style shade formed of a flexible material and including a slit that defines separate first and second shade edges. Wherein in a knock down condition, the shade has a rolled up construction and the shade assumes a fully assembled condition when the first and second edges are joined to one another along the first and second shade edges to form a shade that is open along its top and bottom. The shade is coupled to the socket assembly being disposed between a center hub and a main socket part of the socket assembly that surrounds and extends radially outward from the center electrical socket member.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 5, 2012Publication date: December 5, 2013Applicant: Adesso Inc.Inventor: Lee Schaak

Publication number: 20060077672Abstract: A lighting apparatus includes a gooseneck support arm covered with a resilient colored decorative sleeve. The sleeve is made from woven elements oriented with respect to each other so as to define an outer wall and an inner wall, where the inner wall snugly fits circumferentially about at least a portion of the gooseneck. The weave and material of the sleeve is such that after the removal of a re-orientating, axially-deforming force exerted on the sleeve by a radial bending motion of the gooseneck, the sleeve returns to an original size and shape. The lighting apparatus can include multiple gooseneck arms each covered by a jelly sleeve, and be configured as a desk lamp, a floor lamp, a wall lamp, or a clampable lamp.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2005Publication date: April 13, 2006Applicant: Adesso Inc.Inventor: Lee Schaak

Publication number: 20060072327Abstract: A lighting apparatus includes a gooseneck support arm covered with a resilient, elastomer colored decorative jelly sleeve. The decorative jelly sleeve is made from a resilient elastomeric material and circumferentially surrounds the gooseneck. The jelly sleeve imparts a compressive force on the gooseneck creating, in combination with a coefficient of static friction, a frictional force that is greater than an axially deforming force exerted on the sleeve by a radial bending motion of the gooseneck. The jelly sleeve is capable of returning to an original shape and size after removal of the axially deforming force. The lighting apparatus can include multiple gooseneck arms each covered by a jelly sleeve, and be configured as a desk lamp, a floor lamp, a wall lamp, or a clampable lamp.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2004Publication date: April 6, 2006Applicant: Adesso Inc.Inventor: Lee Schaak

Patent number: 6866403Abstract: A lamp for use on a table or a floor comprises a base, an intermediate spacer coupled to the base and rotatable with respect thereto, a light source, and a shade disposed over and about the light source. The shade has a surface shaped to insinuate a lipstick and additionally has a partially translucent portion acting to diffuse light emanating from the lamp. The lamp operates such that rotation of the intermediate spacer causes the lamp shade to move along a linear axis. A method for adjusting the light pattern emanating from such a lamp further comprises energizing the light source, rotating the intermediate spacer, and moving the shade along the linear axis while maintaining the light source energized.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2003Date of Patent: March 15, 2005Assignee: Adesso Inc.Inventor: Amanda L. Schaak

Publication number: 20040221501Abstract: A picture frame system comprises a base, a telescoping support coupled to and extending from the base, a mount and a trim panel supported at an end of the support away from the base. The support is comprised of at least first and second coaxially joined tubes. The second tube being axially moveable relative to the first tube. *The first and second tubes can be joined by one or more intermediate coaxially joined tubes. The support has sufficient rigidity to support a load defined by the mount, trim panel, and a picture. Optionally, a plurality of telescoping supports can be coupled to and extend from the base, and each can have a different axial length. Also optionally, the mount and trim plate can be configured so that the trim panel is magnetically seatable on the mount for retaining the picture between the mount and the trim panel.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2003Publication date: November 11, 2004Applicant: Adesso Inc.Inventors: Lee Schaak, Duan-Cheng Hsieh
