The adapter includes a standard screw base mounted to a body that houses an electronic ballast. In this way, the bulb assembly can be removed from the adapter and replaced, while reusing the electronic ballast in the adapter. And the screw-base adapter allows the reuse of the electronic ballast in standard screw-socket household light fixtures. In addition, the reusable adapter base also may be provided with an integral photocell for light-based control of the lighting apparatus without increasing the overall height of the composite lighting apparatus. | 02-19-2009 |
20090153008 | Display device - A terminal includes a first part, which includes a terminal contact hole and an ITO film, and a second part, which includes the ITO film but not the contact hole. A terminal wiring line of the terminal is wide in the first part and narrow in the second part. In regions adjacent to the first part, adjacent terminal wiring lines are bent outward, thus securing enough interval between wiring lines, with the result that terminals can be formed through patterning by normal light exposure. | 06-18-2009 |
