  • Patent number: 12264812
    Abstract: A production lamp is provided with a removeable lighting module. The removeable lighting module includes an array of LEDs mounted to a plate. A cooling module circulates fluid through a plate behind the array of LEDs to dissipate heat. A driver module generates variable signals to power each of the LEDs in the array to create myriad color output of highly variable intensity. Dripless fluid connectors mounted to the plate connect the cooling module in fluid communication with the plate. Movable pins mounted in the plate electrically connect the LED array to the driver module. Finally, a tool-less actuator mounted in the removeable lighting module disconnects both the dripless connectors and the pins for removal and replacement of the LED module.

  • Patent number: 10508767
    Abstract: A system for mounting an electrical device to an electrical junction box may include a mounting plate configured to be coupled to a junction box, and a coupler plate configured to be coupled to the mounting plate and an electrical device. The mounting plate may include at least one a curved slot, and the coupler plate may include at least one pin. The mounting plate and the coupler plate may be configured to be coupled to one another via insertion of the at least one pin into the at least one curved slot, and rotating the coupler plate and the mounting plate relative to one another, so that the at least one pin follows the at least one curved slot and deflects and passes a locking clip of the mounting plate, such that the mounting plate and the coupler plate are coupled to one another.
