ABSTRACT:
A lighting fixture or luminaire in which a multi-tube fluorescent lamp may be oriented in a horizontal position while focusing the omnidirectional output from the lamp. A swivel assembly enables the lamp to move as a single unit with the reflector housing, thereby to maintain the alignment of the lamp tube to the reflector surface while allowing aiming of the light beam. In one embodiment of the invention, a socket housing snap fits into the reflector housing so that the lamp rotates simultaneously with the reflector housing. The beam spread delivered by the luminaire has a bright center and a soft perimeter so that the bright center may be used as accent lighting and the peripheral light may be used for soft general lighting.
