A luminaire (61) is disclosed with a close coupled ballast (62) having a support arm (66) from which is suspended or hung a reflector, and preferably a variable focus reflector (41), having either a single ended lamp (3) or double ended lamp (23). The luminaire (61) is supported from a greenhouse rafter (9) by filaments (10, 11) which are connected one to the ballast (62) and the other to the free end of the support arm (66). In one embodiment the arm (66) is connected to a rigid side plate (64) which is mounted on the ballast (62). In another embodiment the arm (66) is connected to a side plate (164) which is hinged. The arrangement enables flimsy reflectors (41) to be close coupled with electronic ballasts in a way which minimises Radio Frequency Interference (RFI).

Provided is an illumination apparatus capable of forming ring-shaped irradiation light by using a simple configuration. Also provided is an illumination apparatus capable of freely changing a shape of the ring-shaped irradiation light. In order to achieve these objects, the present invention has the following means. That is, the illumination apparatus includes a first reflector having a first hole where a light source is arranged, a second hole that emits light, and a reflecting curved surface that connects the first hole and the second hole with each other, a light shield arranged at an area including a center of the second hole as seen in plan view, an opening portion formed in a ring-shaped manner between an inner edge of the second hole and an outer edge of the light shield, and a liquid crystal lens arranged so as to cover the opening portion.

The invention provides a reflector lamp comprising a light source, a lens and/or a reflector arranged coaxially with the light source in a spaced-apart fashion, and a push-push adjustment assembly for varying a beam angle of the light beam in a push manner. The push-push adjustment assembly comprises a frame coupled fixedly to the lamp, an actuator in operative connection with the lens or the reflector, wherein the actuator movably rests in the frame so that the movement of the actuator enables the lens or the reflector to slide relative to the light source thereby to provide variable axial spacing between the lens or the reflector and the light source, and a push-push latch mechanism coupled to the actuator and/or the frame to move the actuator in the frame.
