ABSTRACT:
A recessed fluorescent light system includes a pair of saddle-shaped brackets having depending side legs resting on parallel bars of a hung ceiling structure, releasably locked thereto by bracket-carried lower spring latch members. A ballast and wire housing channel is coupled to the bracket top cross bars by bracket-mounted latch springs which also project through bracket transverse legs to define baffle assembly latch members. A horizontal plate reflector extends between and beyond the channel depending legs and is secured thereto. The plate includes depending longitudinal end flanges and inwardly spaced depending dimples. A light baffle assembly includes longitudinal upwardly and inwardly curved reflector plates terminating in horizontal flanges underlying and spaced from the side borders of the horizontal reflector by the dimples and spaced also from the depending flanges to delineate a sound attenuating tortuous elongated shallow air return passageway. The channel ends are closed by fluorescent bulb socket carrying depending side plates. The baffle assembly is releasably retained to the bracket by the baffle spring latch member engaging the upper flanges of the side baffle, and is connected at its upper corners by elongated bead chains to the bracket legs by way of the lower latch members. The sockets may be vertically adjustable.
