A lighting bracket is an device that is used for holding an electric bulb, or a tube light, and reflect the light according to the requirement. Examples include : Wall lamps tube light holders, table lamps, street lights, front and rear lights in automobiles,, etc.
COMPONENTS
Bulb/tube light holder Light reflector Wall clamper Electric components
PHYSICAL DESCRIPTION
Main body
A hollow shaped lightning bracket, closed at either one of the ends. Bulb or tube holder, bulb or tube and light reflector. Wiring and other electrical component.
Wall clamper
Used to fix the main body to a wall. Generally made of aluminum or steel.
Connectors
Connect the main body to the wall clampers. Provided with hinges at the joint, so that the main body could be oriented as per the requirement. Generally made of aluminum or steel.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
MAIN BODY
A cylindrical body, with a long groove along the length , from where the light from the bulb comes out. Made using thin metal sheets, which are generally bought from an outside supplier. The material used is highly heat resistant. Plate Bending Rolls are used to convert thin metallic sheets into a cylinder of desired diameter. Outer part is polished to give an aesthetic look.
The
The ends of the cylinder are closed by welding circular metallic pieces to it.
REFLECTIVE COATING
POWDER COATING
Surface pre-treatment Coating with dry powder Heating for 10 minutes at around 2000 C
Powder coatings can produce much thicker coatings than conventional liquid coatings without running or sagging.
Materials used
Pre-treatment chemicals
Alkali decreasing chemicals Nitric acid Phosphate Chemicals
White coating
Dry powder
CONNECTORS
Cylindrical tubes of small radius, bent to from a circular arc, through Tube bending process. Joined to the main body and the wall clamper through hinges or by welding or through screws.
WALL CLAMPER
The design is chosen according to the weight of the complete assembly(including the bulb). Thin metal sheets are used. Sheets are given the desired shape using plate bending machine. Contains all the important electric components(like. Electric wires, fuse, etc.).
