Abstract: A portable halogen bulb worklight fixture is formed with a housing forming a bulb containing cavity and a light emitting opening. A peripheral frame, a frame handle extending outwardly from one side of the frame. A top handle is located above the frame and a bulb storage compartment is located in the top handle. A base structure is arranged to minimize exposure of the user to heat generated by the fixture when replacing a bulb and when being transported from one site to another.

Abstract: A motion activated light fixture has a housing comprised of a canopy, a base formed integral with the canopy and at least one illumination source mounted on the housing. The housing has a centrally located mounting hole which enables the base and canopy to be rotated 360 degrees around the mounting hole prior to being mounted on a selected vertical or horizontal surface. The sensor component mounts on an outer surface of the housing and includes a lens plate in which plural lens segments are formed in a plurality of rows so as to provide a substantially wide angle of view of up to 180 degrees and which view can be variably positioned utilizing the referred to mounting hole configuration.

Abstract: A motion activated decorative lantern having an optical lens which becomes part of the lantern structure and appearance so that there is no profile difference due to the presence of the motion sensor. The detection range area may be adjusted without the details of the adjustment being visible. A rotatable sensing module has an integral appearance with that of the fixture. The decorative lantern has a decorative lamp portion and a mounting portion, a cylindrical sensing module having a chamber; a motion sensor located in the chamber for detecting motion in a selected location around the lantern; and a lens piece positioned around the sensing module and over the chamber. The lens piece has a uniform decorative appearance. The sensing module is rotatable to change the selected location of detection of the lantern. The lantern also includes a decorative external housing, decorative tail below the sensing module and a decorative lantern base.

Abstract: This method for making a luminaire reflector comprises: (a) providing a sheet of metal having two generally parallel edges and a mid-plane extending perpendicular to said edges; (b) cutting from this sheet a blank that comprises (i) two primary portions, each in the shape of a trapezoid having a major base extending along one edge of the sheet, a minor base spaced from the major base, side edges extending between the ends of the major and minor bases, (ii) a junction portion interconnecting the minor bases, and (iii) end-paneling portions at opposite sides of the mid-plane, each of the end-paneling portions comprising a plurality of sections, one section joined to a side edge of one of the primary portions, another section joined to a side edge of the other primary portion and a third section joined to the junction portion.

Abstract: This device includes: (a) an access opening, (b) support structure located adjacent an edge of the access opening and containing a plurality of slots, and (c) a sheet-metal door having one edge located adjacent the support structure, having a closed position covering the access opening, and having a fully-open position in which the door is perpendicular to its position when closed. The door is swingable between its closed and fully-open positions about a pivot axis located near said one door edge. The door includes a plurality of tabs projecting outwardly from said one edge, each tab being of a generally L-shaped cross-section when viewed from a reference plane perpendicular to the pivot axis. Each tab comprises a first arm located in the major plane of the door and a second arm extending transversely of the first arm.

Abstract: A cover plate is designed for use in either wall mounting or ceiling mounting applications. The cover plate comprises a base forming a base plane for mounting said plate flush against a support surface. A main body is connected to the base and has a generally flat mounting surface disposed in the plane parallel to the base and a sloped mounting surface inclined with respect to the base plane. A pair of first mounting holes are formed in the flat mounting surface which have an axis substantially perpendicular to the base plane. A pair of second mounting holes are formed in the sloped mounting surface and have an axis disposed at an angle with respect to the base plane. In ceiling mounting applications, lighting fixtures are received in the first mounting holes. Conversely, in wall mounting applications, the lighting fixtures are received in the second mounting holes.

Abstract: This luminaire employs as its light source a double-ended lamp comprising a tubular light-transmitting envelope having a central longitudinal axis, conductive terminals at opposite ends of the envelope, and a light-generating filament connected between the terminals. The lamp, when installed in the luminaire, is connected between a pair of spaced contacts respectively engaging its conductive terminals. The luminaire is constructed in such a manner that an installer engaged in relamping it is blocked from accidentally touching one terminal of the lamp while the other terminal is engaged with its mating contact, thereby protecting the installer from such electric shock as could result from touching one lamp terminal while the other is engaged with a live contact.

Abstract: This quartz-halogen floodlight includes mounting means that is so constructed that the light-aiming angle of the floodlight can be adjusted both horizontally and vertically without disturbing the normal horizontal disposition of the quartz-halogen lamp within the floodlight.

Abstract: A lamp housing is pivotally connected to a support stand having a top portion and a plurality of legs. A support boss extends upwardly from the top portion to which the housing is mounted. The electrical connections and components are mounted beneath the domed portion of the support stand.
