Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A lighting apparatus includes a base housing, an elongated light source module and at least one holder hook. The base housing has a main body and two arms. The two arms are extended from the main body. Each of the two arms has a base connector. The elongated light source module has two light connectors respectively detachably connected to the base connectors of the arms. The elongated light source module emits a light having a main direction. The elongated light source module is rotatable with respect to the base connectors for adjusting the main direction. At least one holder hook is extended from the main body for detachably hooking an object.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A lighting apparatus comprising: a base housing having a main body and two arms, wherein the two arms are extended from the main body, each of the two arms has a base connector; an elongated light source module having two light connectors respectively detachably connected to the base connectors of the arms, wherein the elongated light source module emits a light having a main direction, the elongated light source module is rotatable with respect to the base connectors for adjusting the main direction; and at least one holder hook extended from the main body for detachably hooking an object, wherein the main body has a wiring hole disposed with a wire stop, the wire stop has a top pressing unit for being pressed to move the wire stop to fix an inserted wire to the wire stop. 2. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the holder hook has an electricity socket for supplying power to the objected hooked on the holder hook. 3. The lighting apparatus of claim 2 , wherein an auxiliary light device is plugged to the holder hook providing a second light source. 4. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the elongated light source module has a luminance flat surface. 5. The lighting apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the elongated light source module has multiple LED modules divided into multiple areas, each area has a different density of the LED modules for generating a required projection intensity pattern corresponding to the densities of the areas of the LED modules. 6. The lighting apparatus of claim 4 , wherein the luminance flat surface is bendable to a curve surface to change a output light pattern. 7. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the elongated light source module is detachable from the base connector to be replaced with another light device having the same light connectors. 8. The lighting apparatus of claim 7 , wherein said another light device is a standard light tube. 9. The lighting apparatus of claim 7 , wherein the elongated light source module has a socket for inserting a standard light tube. 10. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein a top surface of the main body is attached to an installation surface. 11. The lighting apparatus of claim 10 , wherein a bracket is fixed to the installation surface and the top surface has a fixing connector fixing to the bracket. 12. The lighting apparatus of claim 10 , wherein a lateral wall of the main body is fixed to a installation wall. 13. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the base connector is elastically movable when attaching the corresponding light connector. 14. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the light connector has a inner circular gear structure corresponding to the base connector for being rotated segment by segment. 15. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein different rotation angles of the elongated light source module with respect to the main body correspond to different light parameters output by the elongated light source module. 16. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the elongated light source module is turned on and turned off by rotating the elongated light source module to two rotation positions. 17. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the wire stop has a cut unit for cutting an insulation layer of the inserted wire. 18. The lighting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the main body is connected to an input wire and an output wire, the input wire is used for transmitting an input power and the output wire is used for routing the power supply to a connected device. 19. The lighting apparatus of claim 18 , wherein the main body has a power circuit for connecting the input wire and the output wire, the power circuit also has a detector for breaking the power supply to the connected device when abnormal condition is detected at the output wire.
