摘要：
An enclosure for recessed lighting, comprising a lateral wall, a top wall and a removable and re-attachable enclosure base, the enclosure base includes a light source, power supply, optic, heat sink and a collar. The enclosure may include an integral junction box, or hangar bar bracket, and one or more cutouts to reduce the possible interference between enclosure and joists in the installation vicinity. The enclosure may be made out of a 3D printable material, moldable material or plastic to facilitate ease of manufacture, reduction of parts, reduction of weight, and elimination of finish steps, such as paint. Multiple enclosures may be stacked for shipping or storage, and hanger bars may be affixed to the lateral wall for installation of the enclosure in a ceiling or wall without the need for a secondary bracket.
权利要求：
CLAIMS What is claimed is: 1. An enclosure for recessed lighting, comprising: a lateral wall, a top wall and enclosure base, the enclosure base configured with a socket and a collar and the socket is configured to receive a light bulb; a flange extending outwardly from a lower portion of the lateral wall having a clip configured to secure a hangar bar; and wherein the lateral wall, the top wall and the enclosure base are all made of plastic.
2. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein the enclosure base is removably affixed to the lateral wall.
3. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein the enclosure is air tight when the enclosure base is affixed to the lateral wall.
4. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein the enclosure is water tight when the enclosure base is affixed to the lateral wall.
5. The enclosure of claim 2, wherein the enclosure may be installed in poured concrete when the enclosure base is affixed to the lateral wall.
6. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein a clip configured to secure the hangar bar forms an integral part of the enclosure.
7. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein the enclosure includes an integral junction box extending into the enclosure from a portion of the lateral wall.
8. The enclosure of claim 4, wherein a junction box cover is configured in a lateral wall through which access may be provided to the junction box. Date Recue/Date Received 2022-05-04
9. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein the enclosure includes a junction box affixed to an upper side of the enclosure base.
10. The enclosure of claim 6, wherein a junction box cover is configured in the enclosure base through which access may be provided to the junction box from a room side of the enclosure.
11. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein the lip of a first enclosure may be interlocked with the lip of a second enclosure, thereby allowing two enclosures to be lined up and linked together.
12. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein one or more cutouts are incorporated into the lateral wall and the top wall to reduce interference with joists when mounting the enclosure.
13. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein the circumference of the lateral wall adjacent to the top wall is less than the circumference of the lateral wall adjacent to the enclosure base, thereby allowing one enclosure to be stacked on another enclosure.
14. The enclosure of claim 10, wherein stacking of enclosures may be achieved by inserting the protruding lateral wall and top wall portions of a first enclosure into a recessed volume defined by the lateral wall and the top wall of a second enclosure.
15. The enclosure of claim 1, wherein the enclosure base is configured with a socket and a collar. Date Recue/Date Received 2022-05-04
