Abstract: An apparatus for protecting a medical valve are disclosed, including a housing having a proximal female luer connection, a valve within the proximal female luer connection, a distal male luer tip, and a fluid passageway between the proximal female luer connection and the distal male luer tip; and a cover member comprising a substantially hollow cylinder with two or more flaps at a proximal end and an aperture at the distal end; wherein the aperture of the cover member is configured to receive the housing so that the two or more flaps are positioned above the proximal female luer connection; and wherein the two or more flaps are configured to fold into the substantially hollow cylinder when pressed on by a syringe or an IV in order to allow the connection of the syringe or the IV onto the proximal female luer connection. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A luminaire adapted to being mounted at the top of a post having a design reducing maintenance costs. The luminaire has a capital with a globe mounted thereon forming an optical chamber, the capital has a front access area with a front access door hingedly attached thereto and optionally has a tool-less latch capable of holding the front access door over the front access area. The capital has an opening in a top portion thereof into the optical chamber, optionally, a relamping module extends from the inside of the capital, through the opening and up into a central portion of the optical chamber and has a lamp socket thereon. The relamping module may be removed without manipulation of the globe or globe roof. The luminaire may also have electrical gear within the capital attached to a tray wherein the tray is removably attached to an internal portion of the capital. The globe and globe roof may remain stationary during typical maintenance processes such as relamping or maintenance of electrical gear.

Abstract: A utility standard assembly having a tubular post member which is circumscribed and compressively held at its base end by a clamp member. The clamp member and tubular member assembly are the received into a clamp receiving pocket in a modular, structural base member which supports the assembly without welding. Wiring opening are located on the bottom of the base member and in the clamp receiving pocket so that the utility wiring may pass from the mounting surface directly into the tubular member. Further, the clamp receiving pocket is supported on legs which create an integral wiring access opening for installation and maintenance. A decorative, wrap-around base cover may be utilized to provide the desired aesthetic effects for the utility standard assembly.
