Fixture for venting a roof

A venting apparatus (10) for an opening in a roof comprising:

• an adapter (100) comprising:
• a frame adapter section (110) having at least three frame adapter section members which define a frame adapter section perimeter having a frame adapter section inner surface (116) and a frame adapter section outer surface (118),
• a lip (120) extending inwardly from a portion of the frame adapter section inner surface located at a top edge of each of the frame adapter section members, and
• a protrusion (130) extending upwardly from the lip said protrusion having at least three protrusion members which define a protrusion perimeter having a protrusion inner surface (136) and a protrusion outer surface (138);
• a mount (200) comprising at least three mount members which define a mount perimeter having a mount inner surface (250) and a mount outer surface (260);
• at least one torsion spring (700);
• a hinge (300);
• a latch (400) having a latch opened position (410A) and a latch closed position (410B);
• an electrical latch actuator (440) electrically connected to a battery (520);
• and
• a device (500) electrically connected to the battery,
• wherein the frame adapter section inner surface is configured to fit around an outer surface (55) of a structural frame (50) attached to the roof, the mount inner surface is configured to fit around the protrusion outer surface, the hinge connects the adapter to the mount along an outer surface of a first mount member of the at least three mount members, the torsion spring connects the adapter to the mount along an inner surface of the first mount member of the at least three mount members and is configured to provide an upward pressure to pivot the mount about the hinge away from the adapter when the latch is changed from a latch closed position to a latch open position, the latch connects the adapter to the mount along a second mount member of the at least three mount members, the electrical latch actuator is mechanically connected to the latch.
