A foldable reflector umbrella has a flexible, cloth-like reflective element with an outer supporting and tensioning structure composed of a plurality of tensioning spokes which are preferably distributed evenly over the expanse and divide the reflective element into a number of umbrella segments essentially corresponding to the number of tensioning spokes. With the reflector umbrella in the opened state, the reflective element consisting of the number of umbrella segments forms a substantially rotationally symmetrical body with a light exit opening. The reflector umbrella has a cloth-like reflective element in the opened state that is at least partially gathered so as to form an uneven reflection surface. A reflector assembly including a reflector umbrella is also provided.

A collapsible marshalling wand system that includes a marshalling wand that can be set in an elongated operational configuration while used, as well as a smaller collapsed configuration when not in use, and an accompanying recharging device, along with an accompanying charging station. The marshalling wand includes a plurality of wand portions integrated telescopically, with the wand portions including a lighting system and a wireless alert system. The charging station allows for multiple marshalling wands to be recharged simultaneously in a variety of locations. As such, the collapsible marshalling wand system allows all ground personnel to conveniently keep a marshalling wand with them at all times as well as for extra marshalling wands to be stored at a charging station positioned on runways.

An ultraviolet (UV) curing system is configured to cure a composite structure. The UV curing system includes a plurality of UV light assemblies that are configured to adaptively conform to a shape of the composite structure. A UV curing method is configured to cure a composite structure. The UV curing method includes positioning a UV curing system on the composite structure, and adaptively conforming a plurality of UV light assemblies of the UV curing system to a shape of the composite structure.

A softbox for use with a light source has structures to collapse the softbox. These structures include a ring-support assembly. The ring support assembly includes a support ring and a light ring, both of which couple to frame arm assembly. The frame arm assembly supports the material of the softbox. When the support ring and light ring are separated, the frame collapses. The structures of the light box may be entirely disposed outside of the direct path of the light source to the target, facilitating, in part, the softbox being integrated with other light manipulating devices proximal to the light source.
