摘要： A mounting system for a U-shaped tube of a fluorescent lamp that has a free end and a connecting end having a coupling member that holds the two tube portions together. The connecting end has male electrical prongs that are insertable into female electrical receptacles formed in a body wall of a mounting body. The body wall is transverse to the U-tube. A support member extends outwardly from under the mounting body under the coupling member to provide resistance to downward movement of the U-tube. A wire locking member connected to the mounting body extends over the coupling member and includes a cross-wire having a U-portion that clamps against the outer wall of the mounting member between the two tube portions so as to grip the U-tube and prevent it from laterally sliding from the mounting body. The locking member also acts to prevent sideways movement of the U-tube in one direction when the U-tube is set vertically.

摘要： The present invention teaches a novel device that electrically connects conductors from a cable to the electrical contacts of a plug or receptacle by means of a single fastener. The device comprises a shell, and an assembly carried by the shell. The assembly is capable of mating engagement with other electrical contacts and has receiving means for receiving electrical conductors. A single fastener holds the terminals of the conductors in electrical connection with the electrical contacts. The single fastener includes a movable carriage on which is mounted a nut through which a screw is threaded with a head with a flange that is engaged with the wall of the assembly so that when the screw is rotated, the carriage moves so as to decrease or enlarge a chamber in which the conductor terminals and a portion of the electrical contacts are situated.

摘要： The present invention provides a plug-in wire terminal system for a lamp socket. The system includes a bushing mounted in a passage through the base wall of the socket and a terminal gripping the lead of a connecting conductor that is adapted to plug into the hollow core of the bushing. The terminal is permanently mounted in the bushing by way of an outwardly biased cone portion that includes a plurality of biasable side strips that snap out once the cone passes an internal shoulder in the core of the bushing. The terminal has a biased contact portion that electrically connects the terminal with the bushing. The bushing includes a flared inner rim that both holds the bushing in place and electrically connects the bushing to a bottom flange extension of the screw shell mounted in the socket.

摘要： Systems and methods for universal serial bus (USB) power delivery with multiple charging ports or connectors to charge multiple electronic devices. The systems include a power supply having converter(s) that converts an input voltage to different output voltages and outputs; charging ports electrically coupled to the power supply outputs; and a controller electrically coupled to the power supply and the charging ports or connectors. Each of the charging ports is configured to connect to and provide an output voltage selected from the different output voltages to an electronic device. The controller communicates or publishes information regarding the different output voltage levels that can be provided by the power supply to the electronic devices; receives voltage levels selected by the electronic devices via the charging ports; and controls the power supply to provide the selected voltages to the first and second device, respectively.

摘要： A system is disclosed for controlling operation of an LED lighting system, including a Power over Ethernet (PoE) LED driver couplable to a PoE switch via a power and communication link. The PoE LED driver includes a microcontroller for controlling an LED driver chip to operate an associated LED lighting fixture. A voltage and current measurement unit is coupled to the microcontroller to receive power from the power and communication link, and to provide signals to the microcontroller. The provided signals can be representative of an input electrical parameter of the power and communication link. The microcontroller is programmed to compare the signals representative of the input electrical parameter against a predetermined value, and command operation of the LED driver chip based on the comparison.

摘要： A system and method are disclosed for providing fail-safe operation of a lighting system. A lighting level detector is used to obtain a baseline lighting level for a low-intensity light. If the detector measures less than the baseline level when an occupancy sensor determines the space is unoccupied, a high-intensity light is energized and an indication is provided to a user that the low-intensity light has failed. A method is also disclosed for daylighting operation of a lighting system. An occupancy sensor can have Wi-Fi functionality to enable remote configuration of the sensor. A line voltage occupancy sensor can include an interface with low voltage devices. An occupancy sensor can include an integral interface to enable an external control system to override the sensor's normal logic under emergency conditions. An occupancy sensor can include an active temperature compensation feature. An occupancy sensor can also incorporate an automatically adjustable coverage area.
