Abstract
A portable lighting system includes a housing with a lower surface, walls extending from the lower surface, and a cavity defined by the lower surface and the walls. The cavity is divided into a first space and a second space. A light body is coupled to the housing for movement between a first position, in which the light body encloses the first space, and a second position, in which the light body allows access to the first space. A battery is removably received in the second space.
Claims20
A portable lighting system comprising:
- a housing including:
- a lower surface,
- walls extending from the lower surface, and
- a cavity defined by the lower surface and the walls, the cavity being divided into a first space and a second space;
- a light body coupled to the housing for movement between a first position, in which the light body encloses the first space, and a second position, in which the light body allows access to the first space;
- and
- a battery removably received in the second space.
A portable lighting system comprising:
- a case including a housing, the housing including a lower surface, walls extending from the lower surface, and a cavity defined by the lower surface and the walls;
- a light body supported by the case;
- a battery mount movably mounted in the cavity;
- and
- a battery removably coupled to the battery mount;
- wherein the battery mount is movable between a first position, in which the battery is able to be removed from the battery mount and the cavity, and a second position, in which the battery is inhibited from being removed from the battery mount and the cavity.
A storage and lighting system comprising:
- a case having a primary interface, the case including:
- a housing defining a receiving area, the housing defining a first part of the primary interface,
- a light body supported by the housing adjacent the receiving area, the light body defining a second part of the primary interface that is spaced from the first part of the primary interface, and
- a battery removably received in the receiving area;
- wherein the first part of the primary interface has a complementary configuration to the second part of the primary interface such that the case can be removably coupled to a similar style of case at the first part of the primary interface or at the second part of the primary interface.
