Abstract: A retrofit luminaire assembly is provided for retrofitting a mounting frame such as a plaster frame or other recessed lighting assembly without the need to remove the existing plaster frame. The retrofit assembly includes a mounting ring that can support a replacement electrical junction box and the replacement luminaire. The mounting ring is inserted through the opening in the plaster frame and secured to the plaster frame by an attachment member that engages the top face of the plaster frame. The attachment member can include a plate coupled to the mounting ring to form two outwardly extending arms. The plate is axially adjustable with respect to the mounting ring to clamp the plaster frame between the plate and the bottom flange of the mounting ring. In another embodiment, the attachment member has a hook-like end that engages a bottom surface of the mounting frame.

The retrofit assembly includes a mounting ring that can support a replacement electrical junction box and the replacement luminaire. The electrical junction box is attached to an adjustable assembly so that the electrical box can be positioned in a number of locations on the mounting ring. The assembly allows adjustment of the electrical box in a vertical direction, horizontal direction and in a rotational direction with respect to the plane of the plaster frame. The mounting ring is inserted through the opening in the plaster frame and secured to the plaster frame by an attachment member that engages the top face of the plaster frame. The attachment member can include a plate coupled to the mounting ring to form two outwardly extending arms.

Abstract: A light-directing assembly is coupled to a light-emitting lamp. The assembly includes an opaque light shield having a top wall with a first opening. The light shield further includes a side wall coupled to the top wall and defines a second opening at a bottom edge. A light-directing assembly also includes a resilient washer having a central aperture and an outer dimension smaller than an inner dimension of the side wall. The central aperture of the washer is coupled to and receives a portion of the light-emitting lamp through an interference fit. The first opening of the light shield receives a second portion of the light-emitting lamp. A top wall of the light shield is supported by the washer and surrounds the light-emitting lamp. Thus, light from the light-emitting lamp is directed from the light-emitting lamp only out of the light shield and through the second opening.
