  • Patent number: 7780318
    Abstract: An LED flood lamp includes an LED lamp and a primary bracket and an accessorial bracket. The lamp includes a pair of lateral sidewalls. The primary bracket pivotally connects with the lateral sidewalls. The accessorial bracket has one end pivotally connecting with one lateral sidewall, and another end connected to the primary bracket via a fastener. Each of the primary and accessorial brackets defines an elongated slot. The fastener is slidable along the slots of the primary and accessorial brackets to vary an illumination angle of the lamp. The LED lamp has a substrate, a plurality of LED modules mounted on a top surface of the substrate and a heat sink mounted on a bottom surface of the substrate, whereby heat generated by the LED modules can be transferred to the heat sink via the substrate to be dissipated to ambient air.

  • Publication number: 20080185488
    Abstract: It is necessary to support components while machining is performed. In such circumstances work supports are now provided, whilst previously there was a dedicated arrangement for each component to be supported. By achieving a modularity in terms of adjustment through creating mountings comprising rings, arcs or bars secured upon posts a rigidity of presentation of support ends is achieved. By providing spacers for location about the posts on the mountings variability with regard to the positioning of the support ends is achieved such that similar geometry but different sized components and articles can be supported by the support arrangements. Furthermore, the spacers may be readily removed if C shaped, and the rings, arcs or bars can be shifted.

  • Patent number: 6416247
    Abstract: A mounting for poles of jumps in equestrian sport. A dish-shaped pole receiver suspended on a generally vertical rail can be connected together by bolts, then fixed to a stand. The bolts, which are flanged such that the shaft is not as wide as the head, extend in multi-segmented slots having serially connected narrow, wide and further narrow portions. The width of the narrow portion of the slot corresponds to approximately the width of the bolt shaft, while the wide portion of the slot is wide enough to accommodate the bolt head. The slot can secure the bolts by firstly introducing the bolt head into the wide portion of the slot, then engaging the shaft with the narrow part of the slot until the shaft comes in contact with the further narrow portion.
