362255000 | MODIFIER MOUNTABLE ON LIGHT SOURCE ENVELOPE | 8 |
20090067175 | LENS FOR USE WITH A LIGHT-EMITTING ELEMENT AND LIGHT SOURCE DEVICE INCLUDING THE LENS - A lens for use with a light-emitting element includes a lens body that has a bottom surface for receiving light from the light-emitting element, a top surface opposite to the bottom surface along an optical axis, a peripheral surface extending and converging from the bottom surface to the top surface such that a projection of a perimeter of the top surface onto a plane of the bottom surface is surrounded by a perimeter of the bottom surface, and a textured structure formed on the top surface for scattering light that exits the top surface at angles relative to the optical axis. | 03-12-2009 |
20090129091 | Fluorescent Tube Color Filter - A filter for a fluorescent lighting tube. The filter includes a sheet of polymeric material having fold lines scribed thereon, defining a plurality of sections. The sections allow the filter to be positioned about and secured to a fluorescent tube without removal of the tube from its mounting fixture. The filter of the may be configured to filter color, ultraviolet light, or other wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum. | 05-21-2009 |
20100149813 | CFL Color Sleeve - A lamp sleeve for changing the hue of light emanating from a CFL lamp includes a conical side wall having an inner end inner end opening sized to receive therethrough only the base of the CFL and an outer end opening sized to receive therethrough the entire CFL lamp. The inner end portion of the sleeve is clamped between the lamp base and a socket when the lamp is screwed into the socket, thereby to support the sleeve adjacent to the lamp. | 06-17-2010 |
20110085336 | ILLUMINATION DEVICE - An illumination device is specified which comprises an optoelectronic component having a housing body and at least one semiconductor chip provided for generating radiation, and a separate optical element, which is provided for fixing at the optoelectronic component and has an optical axis, the optical element having a radiation exit area and the radiation exit area having a concavely curved partial region and a convexly curved partial region, which at least partly surrounds the concavely curved partial region at a distance from the optical axis, the optical axis running through the concavely curved partial region. | 04-14-2011 |
20120106159 | Lamp Cover - A lamp cover and method for hiding a non-traditional lamp in a traditional light fixture. An example method may include positioning an opening in an attachment base over a socket of the traditional light fixture. The method may also include connecting the non-traditional lamp in the socket of the traditional light fixture. The method may also include securing an enclosure to the attachment base to entirely cover the non-traditional lamp. | 05-03-2012 |
20120314417 | OPTICAL LENS AND LIGHT-EMITTING MODULE USING THE SAME - An optical lens for modulating light generated by a surface-emitting laser chip is disclosed. The optical lens includes a main body with a recess. A bottom surface of the recess is configured with a light-entering curved face, and an outer surface of the main body opposite to the bottom surface is configured with a light-existing curved face. Here, the recess is for accommodating the surface-emitting laser chip, and the surface-emitting laser chip is arranged a distance from the light-entering curved face. A light-emitting module adopting the aforementioned optical lens is also provided. The aforementioned optical lens would cause the incident light to first diverge and then converge at a predetermined angle, so that the output illuminating light is more uniform and the projecting distance is extended. | 12-13-2012 |
20130148358 | Detachable cover apparatus for compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulbs that affects illumination clarity, quality and color - This invention describes a detachable cover apparatus for a compact fluorescent light (CFL) light bulb (hereinafter “Detachable CFL Cover”) that affects illumination diffusion, quality, and color. The cover apparatus is slipped over the light emitting portion of the CFL light and attached to the base of the bulb. Upon attachment, the Detachable CFL Cover provides the ability to diffuse or soften, reflect, or change the color of the light emitted from the CFL bulb for practical utilitarian or cosmetic purposes. The Detachable CFL Cover is pressure-mounted to the CFL bulb, hence is detachable, and interchangeable with other Detachable CFL Covers to provide a multitude of illumination options from a single CFL light source. | 06-13-2013 |

20130120997 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR DIFFUSING LIGHT BY RETROFITING PRE-EXISTING LIGHT FIXTURES - This specification describes technologies relating to the modification of pre-existing light fixtures such that the fixtures produce diffuse indirect lighting instead of direct lighting. Implementation of said technology comprises: a modular apparatus that attaches to pre-existing light fixtures to convert direct lighting into diffuse indirect lighting, and a method by which said apparatus is used for said purpose. Said technology enhances the aesthetics of an artificially illuminated environment and increases the comfort of users in said environment. Compared to alternative implementations comprising light fixture replacement, the technology specified herein presents reduced time, money, and skill barriers for users, is highly modular for simple user customization, and can be cleanly installed, adjusted, and removed without damage to the pre-existing light fixture, the attachment surface, or the apparatus. | 05-16-2013 |
