    摘要: An electrically conductive ball joint and lighting fixtures using the joint are disclosed. The joint has a ball with a first portion connected to a first electrical signal and a second portion connected to a second electrical signal. The first and second portions are electrically isolated from one another by a nonconductive bushing. A socket receives the ball and has a first set of electrical contacts adapted to make contact with the first portion of the ball and a second set of electrical contacts adapted to make contact with the second portion of the ball. The two portions of the ball are unequal, with one portion being larger than the other. The lighting fixtures generally comprise a base and two or more arms connected to the base. The arms are connected to one another electrically and structurally with the electrically conductive ball joints, and may be counterweighted.

    摘要: A grommet adapted to be placed through an aperture in a work surface, such as a desk. A lip, with a diameter larger than the aperture in the work surface, is located at the top of the housing, or body of the grommet, so that the lip rests over the aperture in the desk while the housing of the grommet passes through the aperture, so that the great majority of the grommet lies below the surface of the work surface. The grommet contains a plurality of electrical plugs or duplex receptacles and a plurality of modular couplers for communication terminals so that power or communications wires may be passed over the top of the grommet and down into the housing to be connected inside of the grommet. The grommet has a power wire and communication connection wires connected to the bottom of the grommet, for connection to a power source, such as a wall plug, and a communication source, such as a telephone plug. A cover or cap fits over the top of the housing to cover the incoming wires and the connections within, while leaving a space between the top of the housing and the cover so that the wires may pass through.
