    摘要: An illuminator assembly that has a lid that can be easily removed, a spare bulb holder, a color wheel that easily accepts additional filters without disassembly and a snap on filter for a window on the illuminator assembly. The illuminator assembly illuminates one end of a bundle of fiber optic fibers for a lighting system for a swimming pool or a spa or other area to be illuminated. The illuminator assembly includes a hollow housing containing a light socket assembly for illuminating the end of the bundle of fiber optic fibers. The housing has a first tab mounted adjacent to its open upper end. A light bulb is mounted in the light socket assembly and a lid is provided that is sized to cover the open upper end of the housing. The lid has a second tab configured to selectively engage the first tab on the housing upon the rotation of the lid with respect to the housing. The interlocking tabs advantageously allow the installation and removal of the lid without the removal and replacement of troublesome mechanical fasteners, such as screws, nuts and bolts or the use of tools for these fasteners. As described above, the invention also provides other advantageous features.

    摘要: A fiber optic pool lighting system includes a light adaptor cup having an open mouth adapted to be positioned over a pool wall light source. A flexible fiber optic cable bundle having an end mounted in an opening in the cup is provided so that the end is in substantial alignment with the light source. A rail adaptor attaches the cable bundle to the top rail of a swimming pool and the cable is branched from the adaptor and extends along a top rail of the pool. The branches comprise a tube having a longitudinal tail. The tail is provided with a barb which cooperates with a slot in the rail to hold the cable in place.

    摘要: The fiber optic cable assembly mounts to a perimeter surface of a swimming pool or a spa to provide lighting around the perimeter of the swimming pool or spa. The fiber optic cable assembly includes a bundle of fiber optic fibers, a tube, a track, and a plurality of fasteners. The front surface of the track and the rear surface of the tube cooperatively define a chamber between the track and the tube to eliminate interference between the fasteners and the tube such that the tube is uniformly received in the track. Another embodiment of the invention provides a track with a rear surface that defines a reservoir. The reservoir advantageously collects excess adhesive used in the mounting process of the track to prevent unsightly and difficult to remove excess adhesive from building up around the track.

    摘要: A submersible fiber optic lens assembly for use with a fiber optic cable having an end. The assembly includes a lens cap having a lens plate, a seal nut threadedly received within the lens cap, an O-ring radially sealing between the lens cap and the seal nut, a grommet received within the seal nut, and a compression nut received within the seal nut adjacent the grommet such that the grommet may be axially compressed between the seal nut and the compression nut to form a seal between the jacket and the seal nut. The fiber optic cable has a jacket, the jacket being received within the grommet prior to compression of the grommet. The lens plate has a reservoir formed on an inside surface, with a globule of gel located in the reservoir. Upon assembly, the end of the fiber optic cable is received within the gel. The O-ring seal and the grommet seal form an water tight cavity which is further defined by the reservoir and the seal nut. The cavity is filled by the gel.

    摘要: An improved fiber optic end coupling apparatus for a bundle of optical fibers that is heat resistant and that can precisely and easily align different-sized fiber optic bundles along an axis of the beam of light. The end coupling releasably connects one end of a fiber optic bundle to a housing containing an illumination source to light an object, which, by way of example, can be a swimming pool, a spa or the like. The cable has a bundle of exposed coaxial optical fibers in a region adjacent to the end of the cable. The coupling includes a tubular body that has a forward end and that is mounted concentrically on the bundle so that the exposed ends of the fibers are out of contact with the body and extend axially forward from the forward end of the body. The coupling also includes a connector mounted on the body in releasable engagement with the housing to support the ends of the fibers close to the illumination source. A holder is mounted forward of the forward end of the body to locate the ends of the fibers in a position to receive the light emitted by the illumination source. Therein and this hole has a centerpoint located such that light is directed along the fibers.
