The light emitter (11) may include a tube (12) containing one or more light elements (15) joined by wires (16) additionally operating as positioning elements (20). The socket (2) may include one or more groves for gaskets (42) providing a waterproof light emitter (11).

Abstract: A rotary driving apparatus using air bubbles comprises multiple rotating turbine wheels arranged one above the other and supported to be horizontally rotatable supported by sides of a tank having a gas inlet at the bottom thereof and a gas outlet at the top thereof, multiple vanes of each turbine wheel being curved or bent so that ascending gas bubbles contact the inner enclosed surface of each vane, and the multiple turbine wheels are interlocked to each other by means of gears, a chain or a belt. A rotary driving apparatus using gas bubbles also comprises one or more screws rotatably supported at the top and bottom ends of a tank having a gas inlet at the bottom thereof and a gas outlet at the top thereof, the screw or screws being placed where ascending gas bubbles contact the screw flight. The gas is introduced into a liquid and the buoyancy of the resulting gas bubbles is used to generate a rotary driving force.

Abstract: A globe (11) and a substrate (12) form an outer shell (1). In the outer shell (1), there is arranged an attachment (3) having an electric lamp mount (32) and a support stand part (33). In the electric lamp mount (32) of the attachment (3), there is arranged a serially connected body of no-base type small electric lamps (4), and at the support stand part (33), there is arranged a support body (5). The serially connected body of no-base type small electric lamps (4) has a plurality of no-base type small electric lamps (51) and conductors (52) for serially connecting these no-base type small electric lamps (51), is composed by gathering these plurality of no-base type small electric lamps (51). The support body (5) supports the serially connected body of no-base type small electric lamps (4).

Abstract: An embedded type lighting device is formed by assembling a light body to the light body mounting base which is to be mounted to a fitting face. The light body provides the lamp structure made of a plastic material, the lamp socket, and the connector for electrical connection and mechanical connection to the light body mounting base. The light body mounting base includes a base structure made of a plastic material, a terminal block, and connection means for receiving, electrically connecting and mechanically supporting the connector of the light body. The light body is connected both electrically and mechanically to the light body mounting base by the connector. Yet, it is possible to omit a special insulation structure with regard to the terminal and the connection means by making the light body structure and the base structure of a plastic material. Thus the workability of the light body is improved and the construction of both the light body and the light body mounting base is simplified.

Abstract: A strip-mounted luminaire (1) has a ribbon cable (11), to the front side of which sockets (12) are connected. An illuminant (13) is mounted on each socket (12). Each watertight cover mechanism (2) has a base member (51) which is provided with a window (72) adapted to permit a socket (12) of the strip-mounted luminaire (1) to be inserted therein; a back end member (52) for holding the ribbon cable (11) in conjunction with the base member (51) in such a state that the ribbon cable (11) is sandwiched between the base member (51) and the back end member (52); a translucent globe (53) adapted to be attached to the base member (51) so as to enclose the socket (12) and the illuminant (13); a first sealing member (54) for sealing and waterproofing the space around the socket (12); and a second sealing member (55) for sealing and waterproofing the gap between the translucent globe (53) and the base member (51).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a fixture to be mounted in a mounting hole in a ceiling or the like and an attachment device of said fixture, wherein said fixture is provided with an electrical connection means and a mechanical stopping means, the electrical connection means including a power supply port that can be connected by a simple operation, and the mechanical stopping means capable of removably fixing a heavy and elongated fixture in the mounting hole, so that, when the fixture is mounted in the mounting hole, both electrical and mechanical connection is simultaneously done. By an integrated design of the fixture wherein the back of the mounting hole (a space behind the ceiling panel or the like) is used as a housing space for a lighting circuit member, etc., the fixture can be made more compact with an improved design flexibility, and changes and movements of fixtures with respect to the mounting hole become possible.
