Abstract
An adjustable lighting apparatus includes a plurality of flexible light segments having first and second ends. Each first end includes an input connector and each second end includes an output connector such that multiple light segments may be electrically connected end to end to conformably surround objects of various diameters, such as tables. Each light segment may include light sources connected to respective input and output connectors with wiring. The wiring includes multiple conductors and is connected to a controller for selectively providing predetermined light functions, such as flashing, chasing, or deactivation after a predetermined time. Activation may be triggered by environmental sensors, such as light, motion, vibration, noise, or other like sensors.
Claims20
An adjustable lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a plurality of flexible light segments having first and second ends, each first end having an input connector and each second end having an output connector complementary to said respective input connectors, wiring connecting said input and output connectors for each respective segment, at least some of said segments having one or more light source in communication with said wiring;
- and
- a plurality of clips for selectively attaching said segments to a remote object.
An adjustable lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a plurality of flexible light segments having first and second ends, each first end being releasably attachable to each second end;
- and
- a plurality of clips for selectively attaching said segments to a remote object, each said clip including a receiving portion defining a receiving area for selective attachment to said segments, each said receiving area having a diameter larger than an outer diameter of said segments, whereby a respective segment may be received in said receiving area, each said receiving portion having a configuration such that more than one hundred and eighty degrees about a respective segment may be selectively received in said receiving area, each said receiving portion being at least partially constructed of a resilient material being biased so that said receiving portion is at a closed configuration.
An adjustable lighting apparatus, comprising a plurality of flexible light segments having first and second ends and a plurality of light sources therebetween, each first end having a plurality of input connectors and each second end having a plurality of output connectors complementary to said respective input connectors, each of a plurality of separate conductors being in communication with a respective input connector, a respective output connector, and respective preselected light sources so that each light source is in communication with a neutral conductor and another said conductor.
