| Title: |
Accessory Cartridge For Lighting Fixture |
| Abstract: |
An accessory cartridge for removable reception in a specialized lighting
fixture. A circular cartridge ring is provided with an internal lower
flange, for supporting one or more flat, circular, disc-like accessory
elements, such as filters. Retainer clips are positioned to engage at
least the uppermost one of the disc-like accessory elements, such that one
or more of the disc-like accessory elements may be easily installed within
the cartridge ring and the entire series thereof automatically retained
therein by engagement of at least the uppermost accessory element. The
entire cartridge is designed to be bodily installed in or removed from the
lighting fixture, to facilitate expeditious changing of accessory elements
utilized with the lighting fixture. Preferentially, the lighting fixture
is provided with a hingedly connected front barrel portion, which is
constructed to receive and support the cartridge. The cartridge can be
easily removed and/or installed when the barrel portion is hinged to an
open position.
