ABSTRACT:
A recessed light fixture for a ceiling includes a trim ring, a pivot ring mounted on the trim ring for rotation about a vertical axis, and an enclosure portion rotatable about a horizontal axis intersecting the vertical axis. The enclosure portion includes upper and lower enclosures. The upper enclosure carries a lamp socket in horizontal offset relationship to the vertical and horizontal axes. The lamp socket defines a longitudinal axis which coincides with a center axis of a downwardly open circular mouth of the lower enclosure. The lower enclosure intersects the upper enclosure to form therewith a circular waist. Each of the upper and lower enclosures have a cross-sectional area increasing in size in a respective direction away from the waist. A center axis of the waist intersects the center axis of the mouth at an oblique angle.
