  • Patent number: 11378251
    Abstract: A candle shade is adapted to fit securely atop a candle vessel. The shade assumes the form of a double conical frustum. An interior shell makes direct contact with the candle vessel. The interior shell reflects radiative heat back to the candle surface while allowing smoke and gases to vent upward. Ideally, it is constructed from aluminum sheet metal and includes a band near the lower opening for an airtight seal. An exterior shell encloses the interior shell. The exterior shell protects the outer environment from the heat of the flame, especially so that the shade can be handled safely. Insulation is aided by handles on the exterior shell. Spacers affixed to the interior shell also create an insulating air space between the interior and exterior shells. The double-cone candle shade reduces candle “set” time by 65%.

  • Patent number: 11353205
    Abstract: An anti-shock night light comprises pins, a night light main body, an anti-shock device, and an elastic resetting member. A first end of the anti-shock device is movably connected to an opening to enable the anti-shock device to move in a length direction of the pins, and a second end of the anti-shock device extends away from the night light main body along the length direction so as to enable a part of the pins, which is exposed out of the night light main body, to be contained within the anti-shock device. When plugging the pins into a socket, the anti-shock device abuts the socket and is retracted toward the night light main body to enable the part of the pins to be exposed and plugged into the socket. When the anti-shock device is retracted toward the night light main body, the elastic resetting member generates an elastic resetting force.

  • Patent number: 11337382
    Abstract: An installation such as, for example, a box or cabinet for horticultural applications includes a lighting space between a lighted plane and a lighting plane parallel to the lighted plane, with side walls that are at least partly light-reflective. The illuminated plane may be defined by the upper surface of a plant culture medium. A set of light radiation sources, e.g. LEDs, arranged centrally relative to the lighting plane projects light radiation towards the lighted plane in the direction of a radiation emission axis. The set of light radiation sources emits light radiation with a distribution of illuminance projected towards the lighted plane, wherein the lighted plane is non-uniform and gradually decreases as a function of the angle relative to the aforesaid radiation emission axis, wherein the reflection of the radiation on the side walls facilitates uniform illuminance at the lighted plane.
