Electrical Terminal Connector

US Patent:
6443783, Sep 3, 2002
Filed:
Feb 16, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/504698
Inventors:
Joshua Beadle - San Diego CA 92130
International Classification:
H01R 436
US Classification:
439814, 439718, 439908
Abstract:
The transformer box connector comprises a plurality of terminal blocks and a terminal block retainer with a hinged cover mounted on a housing. The terminal block retainer has a plurality of insulating ribs that act as partitions. Terminal blocks for receiving at least one electrical wire are mounted within the spaces between each insulating rib. Each terminal block is mounted to the terminal block retainer by a planar member that extends from its base. A fastening member, which provides an electrical connection from the wire secured in the terminal blocks to the transformer, extends from the planar member and can be configured as a fastening screw or a fastening post. The fastening member provides means for attaching the terminal block to the terminal block retainer and to the transformer housing. The hinged cover may include openings for access to set screws in the terminal blocks.

In-Ground Lighting Fixture With Gimbaled Lamp Assembly

US Patent:
6491407, Dec 10, 2002
Filed:
Sep 7, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/656813
Inventors:
Joshua Beadle - San Diego CA 92130
International Classification:
F21S 802
US Classification:
362153, 362270, 362364, 362372
Abstract:
The in-ground, or “well light”, fixture comprises a hollow cylindrical housing, a bezel and lens mounted at the upper end of the housing, and a lamp assembly comprising a watertight lamp enclosure containing a lamp and reflector. The lamp enclosure is secured by support brackets which extend downward from the bottom portion of the bezel to provide three-axis adjustability of the lamp. An optional mounting ring is attached at the upper end of the housing to form a flange to facilitate stable placement of the well light in the ground as well as providing an attractive frame around the fixture. The lens is retained at a shallow angle within the bezel to permit water and dirt to run off of the lens surface.

Contaminant-Resistant Pivot Joint For Outdoor Lighting Fixture

US Patent:
6902200, Jun 7, 2005
Filed:
Jul 26, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/206698
Inventors:
Joshua Beadle - San Diego CA, US
International Classification:
F16L027/00, F21V019/02
US Classification:
285185, 362427, 362371
Abstract:
The pivoting knuckle joint for an outdoor lighting fixture comprises a base knuckle, a top knuckle and a fastener for locking the base and top knuckles in position. Each of the base knuckle and top knuckle has a generally cylindrical body with a domed top, a portion of which is cut-away to form a flattened face, and circular cavity formed in the flattened face with a tapered ferrule formed in and extending from the cavity. The ferrule of one of the knuckles has a smaller diameter than the other, so that the smaller ferrule fits within the larger ferrule, forming a pivot point. The relative diameters are adapted to closely fit such that friction is generated between the interfitting ferrules to form a taper lock, resisting rotation of one knuckle relative to the other. In the preferred embodiment, the smaller ferrule has an internal thread formed therein for receiving a locking screw inserted through the body of the knuckle with the larger ferrule, permitting the position of the joint to be locked in place after adjustment. Bores are formed through the base and top knuckles to provide a conduit for an electrical wire to pass through the assembly.

Pathway Light Fixture With Interchangeable Components

US Patent:
7387409, Jun 17, 2008
Filed:
Mar 1, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/366855
Inventors:
Joshua Z. Beadle - San Diego CA, US
International Classification:
F21S 8/00, F21S 8/08, E01F 9/00, F21V 7/00, F21V 3/00, F21V 5/00, F21V 11/00
US Classification:
362308, 362153, 3621531, 362431, 362310, 362311, 362329, 362359, 362410
Abstract:
A light fixture for use in low voltage outdoor lighting systems includes a lens assembly with a diffuser lens disposed on top of a lens support, a reflector hood and a mushroom-shaped reflector retaining cap removably mounted on top of the lens assembly. A socket and lamp extend through an opening in the lens support. The radial center of the hood has a flattened area that sits level on top of the cylindrical lens and has an opening through which a base portion of the retaining cap is inserted. A recess in the top of the lens has an opening at its bottom for receiving the base of the retainer cap which is attached with a fastener inserted through the top of the lens. An O-ring seals the lens to the lower surface of the hood and the lens and lens support are sealed to provide a water-resistant seal around the lamp. The lens support is attached to the top of a mounting post.

Spike For Outdoor Lighting Fixture

US Patent:
7993040, Aug 9, 2011
Filed:
Nov 6, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/266518
Inventors:
Joshua Z. Beadle - San Diego CA, US
Assignee:
Hunter Industries Incorporated - San Marcos CA
International Classification:
F21S 8/00
US Classification:
362431, 362153, 3621531
Abstract:
A spike for outdoor lighting fixture includes a receptacle portion integrated into the body of the spike with an open section and a removable transparent window that is configured to enclose the receptacle portion. The transparent window is attached to the receptacle portion using one or more screws or other fasteners. The spike can include an internally threaded upper portion for receiving a post upon which a lighting fixture is mounted and/or a lamp socket can be attached to the top of the spike and a protective housing fitted around the outer edges of the top of the spike. In a preferred embodiment, the receptacle portion is divided into multiple compartments, e. g. , for storing excess cable or spare parts, or for securing connection points of a wiring installation. The transparent window permits visual examination of the connection within the receptacle without removing the transparent window.

Pathway Light Fixture

US Patent:
6874905, Apr 5, 2005
Filed:
Feb 19, 2003
Appl. No.:
10/368864
Inventors:
Joshua Z. Beadle - San Diego CA, US
International Classification:
F21V021/14
US Classification:
3621531, 362267, 362158, 362141, 362351, 362270, 362372
Abstract:
A light fixture for use in low voltage outdoor lighting systems that comprises a lens assembly with a reflector, lens and lens support and a socket assembly with a lamp, socket and socket housing, which are mounted on a post. Connection of the lens assembly and socket assembly is provided by the combination of a taper fit and multiple O-rings which provide a frictional fit that is sealed against dirt and moisture intrusion, avoiding metal-to-metal contact. Attachment of the lens assembly to the socket assembly is achieved by pressing the two parts together in an axial direction. Disassembly is achieved by twisting to overcome the friction generated by the O-rings and pulling the two assemblies apart. A locking screw may be used to prevent accidental separation of the lens assembly and socket assembly. The post can be attached to a ground spike for installation.

Adjustable Lighting Fixture

US Patent:
5649760, Jul 22, 1997
Filed:
Nov 13, 1995
Appl. No.:
8/556540
Inventors:
Joshua Z. Beadle - San Diego CA
International Classification:
F21S 100
US Classification:
362270
Abstract:
A lighting fixture includes a housing and a reflector assembly in the housing seated in a split, resilient seating ring and retained by a resilient retaining clip. The axial position of a reflector assembly may be adjusted by moving the seating ring axially. The ends of the ring on opposite sides of the split can be squeezed to resiliently disengage the ring from its interference-fit with the housing wall. The user squeezes the ring in this manner while moving it to a desired location in the housing and then releases it. The angular position of the reflector assembly may also be adjusted. The user squeezes the clip to resiliently disengage it from its interference-fit with the housing wall. The user squeezes the clip in this manner while pivoting the reflector assembly. With the ring abutting the reflector, the user then releases the clip to resiliently re-engage the housing wall.
