ABSTRACT:
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention is a light fixture which interengages a light socket. The light socket then provides electricity to illuminate three light bulbs which are circumferentially spaced on a cover.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates to devices which are adaptable for receiving electric power from a typical light socket.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
A lighting fixture is disclosed which includes a socket flange and a bowl. The socket flange is affixed to the bowl. A cover is affixed to the interconnecting support. There are three light bulbs which engage corresponding bulb sockets. The brackets are mounted to the cover. The bulb sockets are affixed to brackets. Wiring means supplies electric power from the socket flange to the light bulb.
The interconnecting support is U-shaped and includes a first interior threaded portion and a second interior threaded portion. A lower threaded stud engages the first interior portion and affixes the interconnecting support to the bowl by means of a nut which is threaded on to the stud. An upper threaded stud engages the second interior threaded portion and a threaded cap is used in combination therewith to affix the cover to the bowl.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a decorative lighting fixture which is adaptable to be mounted on and powered by a light socket. This invention may be used in a downwardly oriented light or it may be used in an upwardly oriented light or it may even be used in a horizontally oriented light or at any angle between horizontal and vertical. This enables the user of a typical light bulb to replace that light bulb with the decorative lighting fixture of the instant invention.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a decorative lighting fixture capable of interconnecting with a typical lighting socket wherein the decorative lighting fixture includes a conically shaped bowl. The conically shaped bowl enables use of the invention in a typical lighting socket which may have a cover around a portion of it.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a decorative lighting fixture which may be used in existing applications such as outdoor lights.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a lighting fixture having a single lamp.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a lighting fixture having a three-light candelabra cluster.
Other objects of the present invention will become apparent when considering the brief description of the drawings, the description of the invention and the claims which follow hereinbelow.
