Abstract
A light fixture having an adjustable reflector is supported on a deployment bar. An actuation screw passes through the deployment bar and engages a threaded stud. Threading the actuation screw into and out of the threaded stud bends the deployment bar, which in turn pushes against the reflector adjusting the angle of the reflector.
Claims28
A reflector assembly device, comprising:
- a reflector mounted on a base;
- a deployment bar mounted on the base adjacent the reflector;
- and
- an actuation screw engaging said reflector and said deployment bar and threadly engaged with said base;
- whereby threading said actuation screw into said base changes positioning of the deployment bar and in turn changes positioning of said reflector.
2 more elements
A reflector assembly, comprising:
- first and second reflectors mounted on a base and coupled together using interlocking tabs, said first and second reflectors having first and second flexible tension tabs;
- first and second deployment bars mounted on a base for supporting and adjusting said first and second reflectors;
- and
- first and second actuation screws passing through said first and second flexible tension tabs and threadly engaging said base, said first and second actuation screws coupling said first and second reflectors to said first and second mounting bars, and situated to bend said first and second deployment bars upon threading of said actuation screws into said base, said bending of first and second deployment bars adjusting first and second reflectors.
1 more element
A lighting fixture assembly, comprising:
- an adjustable light reflector mounted on a base;
- a mounting bar molded as part of said base, extending therefrom by a first distance and supporting said reflector;
- a substantially rectangular deployment bar resting between said mounting bar and said reflector and having two ends, a hole through the center, a set of bending notches along the longitudinal edges, all equidistant from said center hole, and a set of positioning notches, all equidistant from said center hole, farther from said center hole than said set of bending notches, said positioning notches holding said deployment bar stationary with respect to twisting movement;
- a stud molded as part of said base and located in the center of said mounting bar;
- and
- an actuation screw passing through said adjustable reflector and said center hole in said deployment bar and threadly engaging said stud, said actuation screw altering the position of the deployment bar upon threading said actuation screw into said base, which in turn adjusts the position of said reflector.
