Patent Number: 7845833 
Title: Light Dimmer and Associated Methodology 
Abstract: A light dimming apparatus for dimming light output generated by a light source. A rectangular frame supports sets of blade members at a central aperture defined by the frame. The blade members of a set are positioned side-by-side, and adjacent ones of the blade members are hingedly connected together. Accordion-like movement of the blade members is provided responsive to application of forces applied to the blade members. A component of the applied forces causes linear translation of the blade members in to or out of the central aperture.
