Abstract: Flexible sheet reflector for floodlight is supported at its ends by cradle members having parabolic openings into which the reflector ends are inserted, so that the reflector is formed and held in the desired shape by the cradle members, thereby avoiding distortion of the reflector which would otherwise result from the use of screw mountings or other fasteners.

Abstract: Lowering and hoisting apparatus for high mast luminaires. Support ring carrying a plurality of luminaires is mounted for movement along a pole from an upper operative position, in which it is latched to an upper support, to a lowered position near the ground for servicing operations. The latching arrangement comprises a plurality of latches on the support ring which automatically latch the support ring to the upper support when raised to its operative position, and are automatically unlatched from the upper support when the luminaire support ring is slightly raised from its operative position so that the support ring may be lowered to its service position.

Abstract: A quick connect and release device between an electric light fixture and a light diffusing shade or globe therefor including snap-on resilient fingers on the fixture engageable in an annular groove in the globe as well as cam members on the globe registerable with the resilient fingers upon turning of the globe relative to the fixture to free the globe for removal therefrom.
