ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to pool table lights and more particularly pertains to a new pool table decorative light for directing light toward a pool table and covering a light assembly.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of pool table lights is known in the prior art. More specifically, pool table lights heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
Known prior art includes U.S. Pat. Nos. 3,783,544; 4,029,313; 3,760,179; U.S. Des. Pat. No. 268,940; U.S. Des. Pat. No. 152,390; and U.S. Des. Pat. No. 374,293.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not disclose a new pool table decorative light. The inventive device includes a light housing, the light housing has an open bottom side such that an interior and exterior of the light housing are defined. The light housing has a shape generally resembling a car. The light housing has a pair of openings therein such that each of the cables holding a light assembly may extend through one of the openings such that the light housing may be positioned between the light assembly and the ceiling. A plurality of accessories may be used for individually decorating an exterior surface of the light housing.
In these respects, the pool table decorative light according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of directing light toward a pool table and covering a light assembly.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of pool table lights now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new pool table decorative light construction wherein the same can be utilized for directing light toward a pool table and covering a light assembly.
The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new pool table decorative light apparatus and method which has many of the advantages of the pool table lights mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new pool table decorative light which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art pool table lights, either alone or in any combination thereof.
To attain this, the present invention generally comprises a light housing, the light housing has an open bottom side such that an interior and exterior of the light housing are defined. The light housing has a shape generally resembling a car. The light housing has a pair of openings therein such that each of the cables holding a light assembly may extend through one of the openings such that the light housing may be positioned between the light assembly and the ceiling. A plurality of accessories may be used for individually decorating an exterior surface of the light housing.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Further, the purpose of the foregoing abstract is to enable the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally, and especially the scientists, engineers and practitioners in the art who are not familiar with patent or legal terms or phraseology, to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and essence of the technical disclosure of the application. The abstract is neither intended to define the invention of the application, which is measured by the claims, nor is it intended to be limiting as to the scope of the invention in any way.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new pool table decorative light apparatus and method which has many of the advantages of the pool table lights mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new pool table decorative light which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art pool table lights, either alone or in any combination thereof.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a new pool table decorative light which may be easily and efficiently manufactured and marketed.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a new pool table decorative light which is of a durable and reliable construction.
An even further object of the present invention is to provide a new pool table decorative light which is susceptible of a low cost of manufacture with regard to both materials and labor, and which accordingly is then susceptible of low prices of sale to the consuming public, thereby making such pool table decorative light economically available to the buying public.
Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new pool table decorative light which provides in the apparatuses and methods of the prior art some of the advantages thereof, while simultaneously overcoming some of the disadvantages normally associated therewith.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new pool table decorative light for directing light toward a pool table and covering a light assembly.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new pool table decorative light which includes a light housing, the light housing has an open bottom side such that an interior and exterior of the light housing are defined. The light housing has a shape generally resembling a car. The light housing has a pair of openings therein such that each of the cables holding a light assembly may extend through one of the openings such that the light housing may be positioned between the light assembly and the ceiling. A plurality of accessories may be used for individually decorating an exterior surface of the light housing.
Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new pool table decorative light that may be customized for the surroundings in which it is to be located.
Even still another object of the present invention is to provide a new pool table decorative light that may be painted such that light does not escape through the light housing.
These together with other objects of the invention, along with the various features of novelty which characterize the invention, are pointed out with particularity in the claims annexed to and forming a part of this disclosure. For a better understanding of the invention, its operating advantages and the specific objects attained by its uses, reference should be made to the a
