CA 2618677

An improved recessed fixture frame and method for installing the recessed fixture frame in new, existing or rough-in construction is disclosed. The improved recessed fixture frame includes a frame band for supporting and surrounding a fixture housing and at least one mounting assembly connected to the frame band in such a manner that the frame band is capable of being adjusted between the ends of the mounting bars. The mounting assembly includes at least one hinged mounting stub operatively hingeably connected to at least one end of the mounting assembly. Each hinged mounting stub includes a fastening means for affixing the recessed fixture frame to a structural member in a first position. In the first position, the recessed fixture frame extends downwardly from the structural member. After the fixture frame has been wired-in, the fixture frame is rotated about ninety degrees (90°) about the hinged mounting stubs to a second position where the non-hinged mounting stub at the other end of the mounting assemblies are operatively connected to a second structural member.

L'invention décrit un perfectionnement apporté à un boîtier, ainsi que la méthode connexe pour l'encastrement d'un appareil d'éclairage dans un logement neuf, déjà en place ou grossièrement ouvré. Le cadre amélioré pour cet appareil d'éclairage encastré comprend une bride pour entourer et soutenir le boîtier de l'appareil et au moins un ensemble de montage relié à la bride de façon à ce que l'on puisse ajuster celle-ci entre les extrémités des barres de montage. L'ensemble de montage comprend au moins un ergot de montage articulé relié à au moins une extrémité de l'ensemble de montage. Chaque ergot de montage articulé comprend un moyen de fixation pour assujettir le cadre d'encastrement à un élément de charpente dans une première position où celui- ci est disposé en saillie vers le bas. Une fois le câblage effectué, on peut faire pivoter ledit cadre d'encastrement d'environ quatre-vingt-dix degrés (90 °) sur ses ergots de montage articulés de façon à ce que l'ergot de montage non articulé à l'autre extrémité des ensembles de montage adopte une deuxième position où il sera relié à un deuxième élément de charpente.
