ABSTRACT:
Ceiling lights have recessed cans with sockets mounted centrally on a resilient, usually cantilevered, support. A lamp with an integrally connected reflector and external trim ring are connected to the socket. The resilient support pulls the trim ring up against an area of the ceiling surrounding the recessed can, causing the trim ring to act as a self-leveling device for the lamp, while functioning in the manner as a suitable trim for covering the unsightly hole in the ceiling which accommodates the recessed can or fixture. This arrangement allows the near-maximum use of the diametrical width of the opening provided by the recessed fixture as a means of projecting more usable light downward.
