Abstract

A lamp fixture having a top housing with slightly slanted side walls, a faceted rectangular glass portion extending from the housing, and a junction box and an extrusion plate for mounting the fixture to an electrical or junction box in a building. The extrusion plate is mounted to a sidewall of the housing. The extrusion plate includes J or hooked shaped end portions forming cavities therein. The junction box includes ridges. The ridges are slightly angled to match the angle of the sidewalls of the fixture housing. The fixture and mounted extrusion plate can then be lifted above the junction box, and the cavities of the extrusion plate slid over the ridges of the junction box. The top surface of the extrusion plate is slightly angled to compensate for the angle of the ridges, so that the top surfaces of the extrusion plate and the junction box are flush with one another.

The specific embodiment
As shown in the figure, only be used to illustrate the preferred embodiments of the present invention, rather than limit the present invention in the content shown in this.Fig. 1 illustrates a light fixture 1, and it has the refracting glass part 4 of the rectangle that an overhead guard 2 and stretches out from lampshade 2 downwards.Lampshade 2 has the wall that tilts slightly can flow down water, and top flat is ventilative so that the lamp heat radiation in the light fixture.Glass part 4 has first side A that comprises facet 6,8 and 10 and the second side B with facet 12.
In a preferred embodiment, facet 6,8 and 10 is refract light to the left and right, and side B forms the wall of facet towards building, facet 12 simultaneously from about use up and shroud this wall (when lamp is bright).Opposition side (not shown) formation facet at side B outwards and is downwards shone, and light is from left to right launched in the formation facet of the bottom of glass earthward.
See Fig. 2-4, glass part 4 comprises a peripheral outer lips 14.Glass part 4 is placed in the door 18, and door 18 opening sizes that have can hold glass part 4 and block outward flange 14.Keep the door 18 of glass part 4 to be installed to lampshade 2, also can door 18 be installed to lampshade 2 with other conventional method by an inner hinge 20.Lampshade 2 can comprise a drip cap, as the lampshade part in the 2 weeks end.This helps to prevent that moisture from entering lampshade 2 by door 18.Terminal box 22 can be installed to by its dorsal part on the terminal box in the building, and is installed on the stripper plate or installing plate 26 of its front.Terminal box 22 is included in the closure plug 24 to the wiring of other light fixture of being used for of opposite side.Stripper plate 26 is installed to lampshade 2.Packing ring (not shown) is arranged on 2 on stripper plate 26 and lampshade.The following describes the details and the correlation of terminal box 22 and stripper plate 26.
Shown in Fig. 5-7, terminal box 22 comprises rear wall 27; Diapire 29 and two sidewalls 44.Open at the top of terminal box 22.Two sidewalls 44 vertically extend to the rib 30 that separates from rear wall 27 substantially.Each rib 30 extends from the end of one of sidewall 44 is outwards vertical.Rib 30 is with respect to rear wall 27 low-angle that tilts, and roughly the gradient with the side of lampshade 2 is identical.Rib 30 reaches the end from the top of terminal box 22.A protuberance 32 is formed on the bottom at each rib 30, and protuberance 32 extends along the bottom of terminal box 22, and rib is connected to each other.Diapire 29 extends to protuberance 32 approximate vertical from rear wall 27.Bearing 36 stretches out from the apical margin 34 of rear wall 27, and each bearing has the threaded hole that is used to hold screw.Introduce from the next power line of the terminal box of building in hole 42.Can see that it is light fixture 1 power supply that available pores 42 is introduced power line.The consent 24 that is provided with on the opposite side of terminal box 22 is used for providing power supply to adjacent light fixture.Can see that also hole 42 also can be used as other electrical signal line, as passage from the next feedback line of light fixture.
See Fig. 8-10, stripper plate 26 comprises an assembly wall 46, and it has a J-shaped or hook arm 50 on every end.Each J-shaped or hook arm 50 limit a long inner chamber 55, and its big I is held a rib 30 of terminal box 22.The top of stripper plate 26 has the low-angle that equates with the angle 28 of terminal box 22.Similar with the bearing 36 of terminal box 22, comprise that a pair of bearing 48 of screwed hole is protruding from assembly wall 46.Be provided with stripper plate 26 is installed to pair of holes 52 on 2 one sidewalls of lampshade.Opening 54 forms a line passage, and the lamp that is used for light fixture 1 is connected with the power supply of the terminal box of building.
In assembling light fixture and essential wiring, preferably pass hole 38 terminal box 22 is installed on the terminal box on the building wall with screw or analog.Before terminal box 22 is fastened on the wall or terminal box of building, draw power line by hole 42.Preferably stripper plate 26 is installed on the sidewall of lampshade 2 by installing hole 52.The electric connection line of light fixture 1 is by opening 54.In case stripper plate 26 is installed to lampshade 2 and terminal box 22 is installed on the terminal box of building, under the situation of terminal box, user or electrician can finish electrical connection work easily in not opening light fixture or building.The J-shaped hook 50 and the cavity 55 of stripper plate 26 are avoided rib 30, make each rib in place in a cavity.Stripper plate 26, contacts with protuberance 32 up to the end of stripper plate 26 to lower slider along the length of terminal box 22.In this, because the angle of angle on the top of plate 26 and terminal box 22 28 couplings, so the end face of terminal box 22 and plate 26 is in alignment with each other.
Now the electrician can connect the power line that attracts from wall and light fixture easily, and the joint of line is pushed in the terminal box 22.From Figure 11 as seen, stripper plate 26 slides on terminal box 22 and forms the structure of an integral body.As shown in figure 12, be provided with top board 58, it comprises four holes aiming at the bearing 48 on bearing on the terminal box 22 36 and stripper plate 26.Top board 58 is positioned on the overall structure end face, and is fixed on the described structure with conventional screw.Top board 58 prevents power lug contact harmful substance.
Should be understood that does not need to use securing member that terminal box 22 is connected to stripper plate 26.This is because the weight of light fixture 1, and rib 30 cooperates with cavity 55 and makes light fixture remain on the appropriate location.Top board 55 can not vibrate stripper plate 26 and light fixture 1 from terminal box 22.In preferred aspects of the invention, sidewall 44 has the part of reduction, and the heat that lamp is sent can pass terminal box 22 and go in the air.
Above-mentioned explanation is one particular embodiment of the present invention.Be to be understood that this embodiment only plays explanation, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modification under the prerequisite that does not break away from spiritual scope of the present invention.All this changes and revise and to be comprised in the desired scope of the invention or among its equivalent.
