Abstract: A headlight for a vehicle has a reflector, a light source, a collecting lens arranged after the reflector in a light outlet direction so that light emitted by the light source is reflected as a converging light beam and the light beam exiting the headlight has an upper bright-dark limit, the reflector being formed so that images of the light source reflected by the reflector are located in an intermediate image plane which is perpendicular to an optical axis of the reflector in the region of a focal point of the collecting lens facing the reflector and above an imaginary line corresponding to a height and side running of the bright-dark limit.

Abstract: An illuminated accessory and device including a hat that has a panel attached to the front section of the crown of the hat. The panel has indicia formed from a silk-screened polymer film overlay. The panel is formed of a flat electro-luminescent lamp that has the shape of the indica and provides illumination. The lamp has a ribbon extension to a female connector. Included is an inverter positioned within the pouch of the crown of the hat. The inverter has a male connector at one end to couple with the female connector of the lamp. The inverter is in connection with a switch and power source. The inverter is adapted to supply AC line current from the power source to the panel for illumination of the indicia. Alternative embodiments of the present invention are also enclosed.

Abstract: A pull chain outlet box lampholder which is assembled at the factory and does not require the mating of parts of dissimilar material in the field. A body member has a recess in its rear face to accept a switch assembly. A bore in the neck of the body member receives a threaded screwshell. Fasteners extend from the screwshell to the switch assembly to assemble these parts and to clamp an annular ring in the bore between them whereby the switch assembly and the screwshell are held in assembly to each other and to the body member.

Abstract: Systems and methods for high efficiency illuminators are described.

Abstract: A method for enhancing the appearance of landscape lighting, includes providing a shell having a size and shape adapted to cover an outdoor light fixture of predetermined size. The is composed at least partially of a translucent material and it has an exterior with a stone-like appearance. The method proceeds by covering the outdoor light fixture with the shell in order to conceal the outdoor light fixture with a decorative cover while still enabling light to pass outwardly through the shell. In line with the above method, an outdoor light accessory for enhancing the appearance of landscape lighting, includes a shell of translucent material having a size and shape and stone-like appearance as described above. One embodiment of the shell is composed of a translucent polystyrene material molded in a desired configuration to include three flanges through which plastic ground stakes can be driven to secure the shell in place.
