Abstract

A light fixture assembly includes a base including a recessed surface, an outer wall, and a base connecting member extending from the outer wall. A light emitter is connectable to the recessed surface of the base. An inner lens is connectable to the base over the light emitter. An outer lens is configured to be selectively connected to the base. The outer lens includes a lens connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member. An accessory mount is configured to be selectively connected to the base. The accessory mount includes an accessory mount connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member.

First claim

What is claimed:

1. A light fixture assembly comprising:
a base including a recessed surface, an outer wall, and a base connecting member extending from the outer wall;
a light emitter connectable to the recessed surface of the base;
an inner lens connectable to the base over the light emitter;
an outer lens configured to be selectively connected to the base, the outer lens including a lens connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member; and
an accessory mount configured to be selectively connected to the base, the accessory mount including an accessory mount connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member,
wherein the lens connecting member includes a key opening and a ramped portion.

2. The light fixture assembly of claim 1 , wherein the base connecting member includes a protrusion extending from the outer wall.

3. The light fixture assembly of claim 1 , wherein the accessory mount includes a flange having a plurality of apertures.

4. The light fixture assembly of claim 1 , wherein the accessory mount connecting member includes a key opening and a ramped portion.

5. The light fixture assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a floating ring connectable to the accessory mount by a set of standoffs.

6. The light fixture assembly of claim 5 , wherein a secondary lens is positioned between the floating ring and the accessory mount.

7. The light fixture of claim 1 , wherein a set of hanging members are connectable to the accessory mount.

8. A set of connectable light fixture components comprising:
a base including a recessed surface, an outer wall, and a base connecting member extending from the outer wall;
a light emitter connected to the recessed surface of the base;
an inner lens connected to the base over the light emitter;
a series of outer lenses configured to be individually and selectively connected to the base, wherein each of the outer lenses include a lens connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member; and
an accessory mount configured to be selectively connected to the base, wherein the accessory mount includes an accessory mount connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member,
wherein at least one of the lens connecting members include a key opening and a ramped portion configured to engage the base connecting member.

9. The set of light fixture components of claim 8 , wherein the base connecting member includes a first projection and a second projection extending from the outer wall.

10. The set of light fixture components of claim 8 , wherein the accessory mount includes an attachment ring rotatably connected to the base.

11. The set of light fixture components of claim 10 , wherein the attachment ring includes a side wall and a flange, and wherein the sidewall includes key opening and a ramp portion to connect to the base connecting member.

12. The set of light fixture components of claim 10 , further comprising a set of hanging members configured to be connected to the flange.

13. The set of light fixture components of claim 10 , further comprising a floating ring configured to be connected to the accessory mount.

14. The set of light fixture components of claim 13 , wherein the floating ring is connected to the accessory mount by a set of offsets.

15. The set of light fixture components of claim 13 , wherein a lens is positioned between the floating ring and the accessory mount.

16. A light fixture assembly comprising:
a base including a recessed surface, an outer wall, and a base connecting member extending from the outer wall;
a light emitter connectable to the recessed surface of the base;
an inner lens connectable to the base over the light emitter;
an outer lens configured to be selectively connected to the base, the outer lens including a lens connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member; and
an accessory mount configured to be selectively connected to the base, the accessory mount including an accessory mount connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member,
wherein the accessory mount connecting member includes a key opening and a ramped portion.

17. The light fixture of claim 16 , wherein a set of hanging members are connectable to the accessory mount.

18. A set of connectable light fixture components comprising:
a base including a recessed surface, an outer wall, and a base connecting member extending from the outer wall;
a light emitter connected to the recessed surface of the base;
an inner lens connected to the base over the light emitter;
a series of outer lenses configured to be individually and selectively connected to the base, wherein each of the outer lenses include a lens connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member; and
an accessory mount configured to be selectively connected to the base, wherein the accessory mount includes an accessory mount connecting member configured to connect to the base connecting member,
wherein the base connecting member includes a first projection and a second projection extending from the outer wall.

19. The set of light fixture components of claim 18 , further comprising a set of hanging members configured to be connected to the flange.

20. The set of light fixture components of claim 18 , further comprising a floating ring configured to be connected to the accessory mount.
