Abstract: A light fixture includes a visible light module and a germicidal light module. The visible light module may include one or more visible light engines designed for emitting visible light for general illumination. The visible light module may define a top side, a bottom side opposite the top side, and an outer perimeter around the top side and the bottom side. The visible light module may define an aperture extending through the visible light module from the top side to the bottom side. The visible light module may be designed to emit the visible light out of and across the bottom side from the outer perimeter to an inner perimeter defined by the aperture. The germicidal light module may be coupled to the visible light module. The germicidal light module includes a germicidal light engine designed to emit germicidal light through the aperture effective in deactivating pathogens.

Abstract: An adjustable light fixture includes a fixture assembly, a rotation adjustment assembly, and an angle adjustment assembly. The rotation adjustment assembly is configured to receive a lamp, orient the lamp relative to the fixture assembly, and maintain the orientation of the lamp relative to the fixture assembly when the lamp is removed and replaced. The angle adjustment assembly is movably connected to the fixture assembly and is configured to adjust the angle between the fixture assembly and the rotation adjustment assembly. A method of relamping an adjustable light fixture includes providing an adjustable light fixture, installing a lamp in the rotation adjustment assembly from above or below the adjustable light fixture, and adjusting the rotational or angular orientation of the fixture.

Abstract: A recessed lighting fixture for mounting to a ceiling includes a housing, a frame, and at least one locking assembly. The housing includes a side wall, an opening, a lip extending outwardly around at least a portion of a circumference of the opening, and a slot in the side wall. The frame has an aperture sized for slidably receiving the housing. The at least one locking assembly is configured to move between a locked position and an unlocked position and is mountable in the slot. When in the locked position, the locking assembly exerts a force to compress the ceiling between the lip and the frame.

Abstract: A recessed lighting fixture includes a frame having an aperture and at least one mount and a reflector including at least one torsion spring configured to be received in the mount when the reflector is mounted to the frame. A recessed lighting fixture also includes a frame and a reflector. The frame includes an aperture and a pair of mounts separated around a circumference of the aperture in a first direction that differs from a distance in a second direction (i.e., by an angle of other than 180°). The reflector includes a pair of torsion springs separated around a circumference of the reflector in the same way. The reflector is designed to be received in the mount when the reflector is mounted to the frame. The aperture may be a noncircular opening. A junction box that can be used with a recessed lighting fixture includes a retaining spring and a plate having at least one edge having a slot cut into the edge. The retaining spring is mounted on the plate and includes a retaining portion and an outer edge.

Abstract: A socket spring is designed to be installed in at least two different types of reflectors. The socket spring includes a base that can be connected to a lamp socket, a first arm and a second arm. The first arm extends from the base and includes a first bend near the base for use in connecting to a first reflector and a second bend further away from the base for use in connecting to a second reflector. The second arm extends from the base and includes a first bend near the base for use in connecting to the first reflector and a second bend further away from the base for use in connecting to the second reflector. Installing the socket spring in the first reflector includes mounting the first bends to the first reflector and installing the socket spring in the second reflector includes mounting the second bends to the second reflector.

Abstract: A socket housing that is designed to be mounted on a reflector includes a socket plate having generally L-shaped plate having a tab extending from an end of a first segment of the L-shaped plate and an enclosure including a pair of side walls. A first side wall includes a slotted opening that receives the tab when the socket plate is mounted on the enclosure.

Abstract: The check protector comprises a print head with a plurality of parallel pins in a vertical line perpendicular to the direction of movement of the head. The ribbon in the check protector has at least two bands, one band being associated with half the print wires and the other band being associated with the rest of the print wires. In this manner, the amount on a check is imprinted in alternating bands of color to make alteration difficult.
