Abstract: Recessed luminaire components include a lathing ring that is installed in a ceiling using fold-over tabs that are coupled to the lathing ring. The recessed luminaire components further include a rimless housing can and a plurality of flange clips that are removably coupled to the rimless housing can. The rimless housing can and flange clip assembly is installed in the ceiling fitted with the lathing ring. The recessed luminaire components also include a snap fit lathing ring that is configured to be coupled a housing instead of being coupled to the ceiling for an alternative installation. The snap fit lathing ring may include one or more snap tabs that are configured to engage corresponding notches in the housing.

Abstract: A plaster frame for a luminaire includes a first attachment tab on a side of the plaster frame and a second attachment tab on the side of the plaster frame. The plaster frame further includes a back wall. The first attachment tab and the second attachment tab each include a rib protruding toward the back wall. The back wall and the first attachment tab define a first space for a hanger bar assembly to extend therethrough, and the back wall and the second attachment tab define a second space for the hanger bar assembly to extend therethrough.

Abstract: A lighting system can comprise a receptacle for mounting and supplying electricity to a lamp. The receptacle can be compatible with multiple types of lamp sockets. For example, the receptacle can be compatible with two types of lamp sockets that utilize spring force for socket retention in the receptacle. In one such lamp socket type, a spring clip retains the lamp socket in the receptacle utilizing outward spring force. In another such lamp socket type, a spring clip retains the lamp socket in the receptacle utilizing inward spring force.

Abstract: A light module includes a heat sink and one or more light sources coupled within a heat sink cavity formed therein. The heat sink includes an internal surface surrounding the cavity. The internal surface includes a mounting region, a reflector region extending from the perimeter of the mounting region to a distal end, and a decorative region extending from the distal end to a second distal end. The light module includes multiple mounting pads coupled circumferentially around a portion of the heat sink. The mounting pads are configured to facilitate the heat sink being coupled within different housing diameter sizes. The light module includes a trim ring integrally formed with the heat sink and extending radially outward from one end of the heat sink.

Abstract: A hanger bar assembly includes a first hanger bar member and a second hanger bar member. The first hanger bar member includes a first rail segment, a first channel segment including a first channel, and a first stoppage tab extending up above an edge of the first channel segment. The second hanger bar member includes a second rail segment positioned in the first channel of the first channel segment and a second channel segment that includes a second channel. The first rail segment is positioned in the second channel. The second hanger bar member further includes a second stoppage tab extending out in a horizontal direction. The first stoppage tab and the second stoppage tab are designed to abut against each other to prevent unintended disengagement of the first hanger bar member from the second hanger bar member.

Abstract: A recessed light fixture has a plurality of fasteners for securing a can or top hat of the recessed light fixture to a substrate, e.g., sheetrock ceiling and/or open frame mounting plate. Each of the plurality of fasteners comprise a clevis bracket, a clevis hook having perpendicular tabs that rotatably attach the clevis hook to the clevis bracket. When the recessed light fixture is inserted into an opening of the substrate, the clevis hooks rotate out of the way into slots in a wall of the recessed light fixture can. Once the clevis hooks clear the substrate, the clevis hooks rotate back through the wall of the recessed light fixture can. Then the clevis brackets are slideably moved toward the substrate, whereby gripping portions of the clevis hooks will engage the substrate and thereby hold the recessed light fixture to the substrate.
