ROTATABLE RETROFIT TRIM LIGHTING DEVICE
20230408073 · 2023-12-21 ·

A retrofit trim lighting device is provided. In example embodiments, the retrofit trim lighting device comprises a bracket comprising an opening; at least one torsion spring secured to the bracket and configured to mount the retrofit trim lighting device within a recessed housing; a retrofit housing comprising at least one light engine; and an engagement element. The engagement element is secured to the retrofit housing through the opening of the bracket such that, when so secured, the retrofit housing and the bracket are rotatable relative to one another.

Retractable Spotlight
20230408051 · 2023-12-21 ·

A retractable spotlight comprises a cylindrical outer casing and a lamp body movably supported inside the outer casing. A pressing assembly and a connecting assembly are disposed inside the outer casing. The pressing assembly biases the lamp body towards an extended position via the connecting assembly and is configured to be switched between a first position, in which the lamp body is in a retracted state, and a second position, in which the lamp body is in the extended state. The lamp body is rotatably connected to the connecting rod via a radial articulated shaft. The state of the lamp can be adjusted by pressing an automatic locking feature and manually pushing and pulling the lamp body, thereby increasing the versatility of single lamp adjustment while preventing excessive loads on the wire.

Hub for lighting at grid intersection

A hub for lighting at a grid intersection. The hub includes a light enclosure, light fixture, yoke, clip adapter, and beams. The enclosure includes connected walls each having a central offset portion with a connecting slot and multiple fixture slots. The yoke includes a middle section, two side sections, and two connector sections having protrusions. The yoke is attached to the enclosure by passing the connector sections through the connecting slots in opposite walls of the enclosure. Clips are inserted into the connecting slots that do not contain the yoke. The clips include arms extended therefrom and have protrusions. Beams with end adapters having holes are then connected to the enclosure by engaging the protrusions on the yoke and clips with the holes on the clip adapters. A light fixture can then be attached with fasteners passing through the fixture and slots in the fixture. Optionally a driver can be attached to the fixture.

Methods and apparatus for illuminating landscape
10900623 · 2021-01-26 · ·

Apparatus and methods are disclosed which may keep retractable landscape lamps substantially free from water intrusion in operation for a variety of embodiments. Retractable lamps may have a lower fixed portion which could be buried in the ground and an upper portion which may rise and illuminate. When the upper portion rises it may create a low pressure or vacuum inside. Water may be pulled into the lamp which may lead to failure. The lamp may benefit from a seal between the lower and upper portions. A seal may consist of a flexible rubber material and a grease or other lubricant which may form a watertight seal with low friction. The upper portion may have a cap with provisions for aspiration. While traveling between the retracted and extended positions the lamp may aspirate through the bottom of this cap. The cap may be designed to trap an air reservoir when it retracts. It may then provide air for aspiration the next time the lamp rises to permit such a rise such as above wet conditions or above standing water. The cap may have a protective vent which may allow air to pass while restricting water from passing.

MOTORIZED SPOTLIGHT WITH AXIALLY OFFSET VERTICAL ARM
20200408391 · 2020-12-31 ·

Spotlight with a vertical central axis (Z-Z), comprising: a housing (210;110) extending between a bottom end for carrying a light source (L) and with a central axis passing through said ends; a displaceable frame (130;230;330;430); a support arm (120;220) for supporting the housing, which extends parallel to the vertical central axis (Z-Z) and a bottom end of which is rotationally connected to the top end of the housing (110;220), so as to allow rotation of the housing relative to the support arm (120;220) about a longitudinal axis of rotation (S-S) perpendicular to the vertical axis (Z-Z), between a non-rotated position, in which the housing is arranged with its central axis coinciding with the vertical central axis (Z-Z) of the spotlight, and a completely rotated position, in which the housing is arranged at an angle of at least 90 relative to the vertical central axis (Z-Z), wherein the longitudinal axis of rotation (S-S) of the housing is arranged in a position offset in the transverse direction relative to the vertical central axis (Z-Z) on the opposite side to the support arm (120;220); means for rotationally actuating the housing about the longitudinal axis (S-S), arranged inside the housing; means (160;260) for rotationally actuating the support arm (120;220) relative to the movable frame, about an axis parallel to the central vertical axis (Z-Z).

LIGHTING ARRANGEMENT WITH BATTERY BACKUP
20200393098 · 2020-12-17 · ·

A lighting arrangement operable to emit light is disclosed herein. The lighting arrangement can include a mounting bracket and a luminaire. The mounting bracket can have first and second bracket portions positioned about a central longitudinal axis of the mounting bracket. The mounting bracket can also include at least one pair of telescoping shafts interconnecting the first and second bracket portions. The mounting bracket can also include at least one spring positioned to bias the at least one pair of telescoping shafts to an extended configuration. The luminaire can have at least one spring member selectively engageable with at least one shaft of the at least one pair of telescoping shafts to selectively interconnect the luminaire and the mounting bracket.
