Portable light fixture

Claim 2

A portable light fixture of the type comprising a light head, and further characterized by: A. an elongated member on which the light head is mounted; B. means to support said elongated member in an upright position along a wall adjacent to a door opening therein, comprising a C-clamp which can be secured to the wall with its bight extending substantially horizontally through the door opening, and with the clamp arms embracing portions of the wall adjacent to the opening; C. one arm of the clamp comprising complementary telescopically engaged inner and outer arm members, the latter of which is mounted crosswise on said elongated member and the former of which is connected with the bight of the clamp, said complementary arm members being square in cross section and being axially separable and reengageable to enable the clamp to be disposed in either of two positions displaced 90* apart about the axis of said one arm, one of said positions being a storage position at which the bight of the clamp is disposed substantially vertically and lengthwise of said elongated member; and D. cooperating means on saiD arm members readily releasably holding the clamp in either of said two positions.

Claim 3

A portable light fixture of the type comprising a light head, and further characterized by: A. an elongated member upon which the light head is mounted; B. means to support said elongated member in an upright position along a wall adjacent to a door opening therein, comprising a C-clamp the arms of which can be embracingly secured to the wall adjacent to the door opening with its bight extending substantially horizontally therethrough; and C. one arm of the clamp comprising

Claim 4

A portable light fixture of the type comprising a light head, and further characterized by: A. an elongated member upon which the light head is mounted; B. means to support said elongated member in an upright position along a wall adjacent to a door opening therein, comprising a C-clamp the arms of which can be embracingly secured to the wall adjacent to the door opening with its bight extending substantially horizontally therethrough; and C. one arm of the clamp comprising

Claim 5

arm connecting means providing for separably connecting said arm members together with the clamp carried arm member in either of two positions displaced 90* from one another about its longitudinal axis.

Claim 6

arm connecting means providing for separably connecting said arm members together with the clamp carried arm member in either of two positions displaced 90* from one another about its longitudinal axis.

Claim 7

The portable light fixture of claim 2 wherein said arm connecting means further provides for connecting said arm members together with the clamp in either of two positions displaced 180* apart about the axis of the bight of the C-clamp, to enable the bight of the clamp to be located at either side of said upright member.

Claim 8

The portable light fixture of claim 2 further characterized by: A. the bight of the clamp comprising cooperating elongated bight members which are movable lengthwise relative to one another to adjust the span of the clamp arms; and B. cooperating means on said bight members to releasably hold them in different positions of adjustment.

Claim 9

A portable light fixture of the type comprising a light head, and further characterized by: A. an elongated member on which the light head is mounted; B. means to support said elongated member in an upright position along a wall adjacent to a door opening therein, comprising a C-clamp which can be secured to the wall with its bight extending substantially horizontally through the door opening, and with its arms embracing portions of the wall adjacent to the opening; C. one arm of the clamp comprising complementary telescopically engaged inner and outer arm members one connecting with the bight of the clamp and the other mounted crosswise on the elongated member, the bight connected arm member being telescopically engageable with either end portion of said arm which is mounted on the elongated member so as to enable the clamp to be disposed with its bight at either side of said elongated member, said complementary arm members being square in cross section so as to enable telescopic engagement thereof with the clamp in either of two positions displaced 90* apart about the axis of said arm which is mounted on the elongated member, and in one of which positions the bight of the clamp is disposed vertically, lengthwise of said elongated member; D. cooperating means on said arm members readily releasably holding the bight connected arm member telescopically engaged with either end portion of the other arm member; E. the bight of the clamp comprising complementary telescopically connected bight members which can be adjusted lengthwise of one another to vary the span of the clamp; and F. cooperating means on said complementary bight members to releasably hold the same in different positions of lengthwise adjustment.

Claim 10

A portable light fixture of the type comprising a light head, and further characterized by: A. an elongated member on which the light head is mounted; B. means to support said elongated member in an upright position along a wall adjacent to a door opening therein, comprising a C-clamp which can be secured to the wall with its bight extending substantially horizontally through the door opening, and with its arms embracing portions of the wall adjacent to the opening; C. one arm of the clamp comprising complementary telescopically engaged inner and outer arm members one connecting with the bight of the clamp and the other mounted crosswise on the elongated member, the bight connected arm member being telescopically engageable with either end portion of said arm which is mounted on the elongated member so as to enable the clamp to be disposed with its bight at either side of said elongated member, said complementary arm members being square in cross section so as to enable telescopic engagement thereof with the clamp in either of two positions displaced 90* apart about the axis of said arm which is mounted on the elongated member, and in one of which positions the bight of the clamp is disposed vertically, lengthwise of said elongated member; D. cooperating means on said arm members readily releasably holding the bight connected arm member telescopically engaged with either end portion of the other arm member; E. the bight of the clamp comprising complementary telescopically connected bight members which can be adjusted lengthwise of one another to vary the span of the clamp; and F. cooperating means on said complementary bight members to releasably hold the same in different positions of lengthwise adjustment.
