DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0022] With reference to FIG. 4, a fixer according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention is applied to position a marine light on the boat and to adjust an angle of the marine light. The fixer comprises: a base 2 locked on the boat B by using two first screw bolts S, the marine light 31 disposed on a top of a positioning column 3, and a rotatable adjuster 32 arranged on a bottom of the positioning column 3, wherein the rotatable adjuster 32 includes a clamp member 321 arranged on a side thereof, and a connection member 322 has a square cross section, is disposed on a bottom of the rotatable adjuster 32, and is configured to connect the positioning column 3 on the base 2, such that the position column 3 is released or fixed by the rotatable adjuster 32 so as to rotatably adjust its angle.

[0023] Referring to FIGS. 4-8, the base 2 is in a protrusion shape and includes a groove 21 defined on a middle section of a top of the base 2, the groove 21 has two slots 211 respectively defined on two intermediate sections of two peripheral sides thereof, and the groove 21 has multiple stop projections 212 extending outward from a peripheral side of a bottom thereof.

[0024] The connection member 322 has a rib 323 surrounding around a middle section of four peripheral walls thereof so as to slidably retain into the two slots 211 of the groove 21, and the multiple stop projections 212 of the groove 21 stop the connection member 322, such that the connection member 322 is retained in the groove 21.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 4-7, the groove 21 further has two first notches 213 respectively passing through the bottom thereof and located adjacent to the two slots 211 so as to align with any two opposite of four second notches 324 defined on a bottom of the connection member 322, such that any two opposite of the four peripheral walls of the connection member 322 are retained in the groove 21 after rotating the connection member 322 to 90 degrees, and two second screw bolts 51 are screwed with any two opposite second notches 324 individually via the two first notches 213 from a bottom of the base 2 so that the connection member 322 and the positioning column 3 are fixed on the base 2.

[0026] Accordingly, the bottom of the positioning column 3 is released or fixed by the rotatable adjuster 32 so as to be rotatably tilted to any angle, and the base 2 is locked on a predetermined position of the boat B by using the two first screw bolts S.

[0027] As illustrated in FIGS. 9 and 10, after rotating the clamp member 321 so that its outer surface is parallel to the Y direction, the connection member 322 is retained in the groove 21 and is fixed on the base 2, then the positioning column 3 is adjustably rotated in the Y direction so as to tilt the positioning column 3 or to be perpendicular to a water level.

[0028] With reference to FIGS. 11 and 12, after rotating the clamp member 321 so that its peripheral side is in alignment with an X direction, the connection member 322 is retained in the groove 21 and is fixed on the base 2, then the positioning column 3 is adjustably rotated in the X direction so as to tilt the positioning column 3 in the X direction and to be perpendicular to the water level.

[0029] Furthermore, the two first screw bolts S and the two second screw bolts 51 are removed from the base 2, and the connection member 322 is detached from the groove 21 and is rotated to another direction, hence the connection member 322 is pushed into the groove 21 and is locked by using the two second screw bolts 51 so as to connect the positioning column 3 on the base 2. Thereafter, the two first screw bolts S are screwed back to the predetermined position of the boat B.

[0030] Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, the connection member 322 further has a central accommodation orifice 325 passing through a top and the bottom thereof so that a power cable 3T connected with the positioning column 3 inserts through the central accommodation orifice 325 to retain in a recess 214 extending from the bottom of the groove 21, then the power cable 3T is electrically connected with a power source of the boat B via the base 2.

[0031] Thereby, the angle of the marine light is adjustable by tilting the positioning column.

[0032] While the preferred embodiments of the invention have been set forth for the purpose of disclosure, modifications of the disclosed embodiments of the invention as well as other embodiments thereof may occur to those skilled in the art. Accordingly, the appended claims are intended to cover all embodiments which do not depart from the spirit and scope of the invention
