Description
A LIGHTING ARRANGEMENT
The present invention relates to a lighting arrangement and in particular to a lighting arrangement with a lampshade having movable parts.
Lighting arrangements of all types are well known in the art from pendant type lighting arrangements to floor lighting arrangements and table mounted lighting arrangements. A number of novelty lighting arrangements have incorporated movable lam pshades which move as a result of convection currents and still other lighting arrangements have incorporated an additional power source such as a motor to cause rotation of the lampshade relative to the remainder of the lighting arrangement. The convection current technology requires careful design in relation to weight and material selection to accommodate the relevant physical principles at work between the air and the lam pshade. The additional motor type lamps provide greater control for the rotation of the lampshade than the convection current styled lighting arrangements. However, the additional motor adds an extra load on the domestic or commercial electricity supply and adds to the overall operating costs of the lighting arrangement which is a major deterrent to eco friendly users.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a novelty lighting arrangement with a lampshade having rotatable components obviating or mitigating the design complexity problems of the convection current type of lighting arrangements and obviating or mitigating the additional power consumption requirements of the extra motor type of lighting arrangements.

The bottom end of the separate support frame 22 carries the rotatable component 43 which is coupled to the drive shaft 29 of the motor 28. The coupling arrangement 14 is provided by a substantially rectangular wire mounting frame 107 mounted on the electrical cable 25 and the motor 28 and transducer 5 are mounted on the rectangular frame 107 on the end opposite to the coupling member 24.

A transducer 59 in the form of a photovoltaic cell is mounted on the side of the motor housing facing the light source. In use, solar energy from the light source 58 causes the motor 66 to rotate the display member 10 creating an attractive display on the outside surface of the Iampshade 54.
The specific configuration of the lampshade 54 shown in Figures 12 to 16 has a single lamp shade 54 with a generally cylindrical wire support frame 71 covered in a partially transparent material 72 for partially transmitting light from the light source. Although the shape of the wire support frame 71 is described as generally cylindrical, it will of course be appreciated that any well known shape of lamp shade can be used with the present invention such as hemispherical, conical or frusto-conical. The bottom end of the wire support frame 71 has the rotatable member 69 which is coupled to the drive shaft 67. A coupling member 77 is provided by a substantially rectangular wire mounting frame 78 mounted on the electrical cable 57. The motor 66 and transducer 59 are mounted on a platform 74 with an aperture 75 for receiving the driveshaft 67 of the motor 66 on the end opposite a coupling member 24. The transducer 59 is provided by photo voltaic solar cells for converting solar to electrical energy. In use, the bulb 80 is switched on and the transducer 59 converts some of the solar energy into electrical energy to power the motor 66 and rotate the drive shaft 67.
