| Title: |
Geared Tilt Mechanism for Ensuring Horizontal Operation of Arc Lamp |
| Abstract: |
An apparatus and method for keeping a high intensity discharge arc tube
relatively horizontal in a light fixture regardless of aiming orientation
of the light fixture towards a target. In one aspect, the light source is
mounted in an independently pivotal yoke in the light fixture. A gearing
arrangement automatically proportionally pivots the light source relative
to any pivoting motion of the fixture over a range of motion such that a
selected light source orientation can be approximately maintained
regardless of aiming orientation of the fixture.
