MULTI-DIRECTIONAL LIGHT ASSEMBLY
Light assemblies comprise a housing having a chamber, one or more light emitting elements connected with the housing, a transparent cover, and one or more reflectors positioned adjacent the light emitting element. The one or more light emitting elements are interposed between the transparent cover and the one or more reflectors, and the one or more light emitting elements and one or more reflectors operate to provide a multi-directional field of illumination that is 180 degrees or more, e.g., between about 180 to 270 degrees. The transparent cover may have a convex outer surface to facilitate light transmission in side oriented directions. The light assembly may include switches or controls for on/off and/or dimming functions. An example light assembly comprises three light emitting elements in the form of LEDs, and includes three reflectors, wherein the LEDs and reflectors are configured to produce the desired field of illumination.
Light Engine For And Method Of Simulating A Flame
An apparatus, system, and method for lighting effects, including simulating a flame. A three dimensional carrier includes an array of a plurality of light sources distributed on it. A control circuit coordinates on/off of the light sources in a manner to simulate a jumping flame. In one embodiment, the three dimensional carrier and LEDs are encapsulated in an at least partially light transmissive cover. This light modular engine includes a control circuit and an interface to electrical power. The system can include the light engine in a light fixture such as an architectural fixture. The methodology can include a sequence of on/off and brightness variations for the array of light sources.
Lighting fixture mounting systems
Example embodiments provide lighting fixture mounting kits for mounting a flat panel lighting fixture to a mounting surface. The lighting fixture mounting kits may comprise a mounting portion (e.g., a mounting plate) and a lighting fixture. The mounting portion may be secured relative to a mounting surface and may comprise mounting catches. The lighting fixture may be secured relative to the mounting portion, and may comprise fixture catches configured to selectably engage the mounting catches. The lighting fixture may be slidable relative to the mounting portion between an engaged configuration in which the fixture catches are engaged with the mounting catches; and a disengaged configuration in which the fixture catches are disengaged from the mounting catches. When in the disengaged configuration, the lighting fixture is pivotable away from the mounting portion to facilitate access to a back portion of the lighting fixture.
Alternate junction box and arrangement for lighting apparatus
Embodiments are directed to a lighting system including a junction box for accommodating a light source assembly, and which is configured to allows for additional components such as separate drivers or emergency ballasts to also be included in the lighting system together with the light source assembly. In embodiments, the junction box is mounted on a pan style frame. In some embodiments, the lighting system includes a test switch mounted on a trim piece that is accessible from below a ceiling in which the lighting system is installed, and which allows for an emergency power supply to be verified.
Foldable LED lamp with detachable ballast and use method thereof
A foldable lamp holder comprises two side supports, and each of the side supports comprises a first support and a second support, which are symmetrically arranged with each other; ends of the first support and the second support on the same side are hinged; the first support and the second support are respectively provided with a plurality of lamp bar interfaces. The lamp can extended along with the side supports, an LED lamp tube moves outwards simultaneously along with the side supports, thereby extending the irradiation range of the lamp. The ballast can be hung in various ways. The ballast can be connected to the foldable lamp holder as an integrated lamp through the extension on a ballast shell. In addition, the lamp can be hung in various ways.
Power cable for light string and power supply device
A power cable for a light string includes two wires, a body and a switching circuit. The two wires extend from a first end to a second end. The body is disposed on the two wires. The switching circuit includes a normally open contact switch and a voltage dividing resistor. The normally open contact switch is connected in series with the voltage dividing resistor and is electrically connected to two wires. The normally open contact switch and the voltage dividing resistor are disposed in the body, and the normally open contact switch is at least partially exposed on the surface of the body. The normally open contact switch is configured to be repeatedly pressed, so that the voltage division state between the two wires changes to form a trigger signal combination.
RECESSED DOWNLIGHT FIXTURE
A recessed downlight fixture and method for installation is provided. The recessed downlight fixture can be installed in a retrofit application, after a ceiling is installed, through a pre-existing opening in that ceiling. Alternatively, a recessed downlight fixture according to a second embodiment can be installed before a ceiling is present. In either embodiment, the light source coupled to, for example, a heat sink, can be universally moved in three degrees of movement, rotationally, along a tilt axis, or further within the ceiling to increase or decrease the recess. All such universal adjustments can take place through and below the ceiling opening during or after installation.

HYBRID LIGHT EMITTING DIODE TUBE
A lamp including a light source having at least one string of light emitting diodes on a printed circuit board present within a tube body; and end caps having a G13 pin layout on each end of the tube body. The lamp may further include an electrical isolation switch mounted on at least one of the end caps, wherein the electrical isolation switch provides shock protection from the lamp when installed into a ballast free fixture. The lamp may further include driver electronics having a filament detector portion provided by a passive resistance capacitor (RC) circuit that simulates the filament load of a fluorescent lamp when installed into a ballast containing fixture.
