Audio light chandelier

Claim 2

A composite illumination and audio system comprising, in combination: a mechanical structure adapted to be suspended from a wall or ceiling; an illuminating system supported by said mechanical structure; an audio system also supported by said mechanical structure; said mechanical structure providing a resonant cavity for said audio system; and an electrical power supply circuit for furnishing electrical power both to said illuminating system and to said audio system.

Claim 3

An audio light chandelier which comprises: a central housing member; means for mounting said central housing member to a wall or ceiling; means to supply electrical power to be distributed into said central housing member; radio signal sensing means distributed into said central housing member; an audio and detection system connected and responsive to said radio signal sensing means; means to control said audio and detection system; a plurality of horizontal arms radially disposed with respect to the axis of said central housing member and disconnectedly attached thereto; at least one lighting fixture attached to each of said horizontal arms; a resonance acoustic cavity formed within the interior dimensions of said horizontal arms; and an electro-audio transducer situated in each of said horizontal arms.

Claim 4

An audio light chandelier which comprises: a central housing member; means for mounting said central housing member to a wall or ceiling; means to supply electrical power to be distributed into said central housing member; radio signal sensing means distributed into said central housing member; an audio and detection system connected and responsive to said radio signal sensing means; means to control said audio and detection system; a plurality of horizontal arms radially disposed with respect to the axis of said central housing member and disconnectedly attached thereto; at least one lighting fixture attached to each of said horizontal arms; a resonance acoustic cavity formed within the interior dimensions of said horizontal arms; and an electro-audio transducer situated in each of said horizontal arms.

Claim 5

The audio light chandelier of claim 2 wherein said horizontal arms are disconnectedly attached to said central housing member by means of: hang blocks in turn attached to said central housing member by means of screws; and holding pins for cantileveredly securing said horizontal arms to said central housing member through the use of position holes located in said horizontal arms.

Claim 6

The audio light chandelier of claim 2 wherein said means to supply electrical power includes connection means for distributing said electrical power into said horizontal arms.

Claim 7

The audio light chandelier of claim 2 wherein said resonance acoustic chamber includes a baffle, location of which determines the acoustic response characteristics of said resonance acoustic chamber.

Claim 8

A composite illumination and audio system comprising, in combination: a hollow central housing member; means for suspending said central housing member from above; a plurality of horizontally disposed hollow arms secured to and extending radially outward from said central housing member in symmetrically arranged positions; a plurality of loudspeakers, each secured within the outer end of a corresponding one of said arms; each of said arms containing an interior baffle, said baffle and the associated loudspeaker forming a resonance chamber within said arm; a set of lamp holders, each being supported on the outer end of one of said arms and extending vertically therefrom; music circuit means disposed within said central housing member and electrically coupled to all of said loudspeakers; and energizing circuit means contained within said suspending means and coupled to said music circuit means for energizing the same, and also coupled through said central housing member and said arms to each of said lamp holders for providing energy thereto.

Claim 9

A composite illumination and audio system comprising, in combination: a hollow central housing member; means for suspending said central housing member from above; a plurality of horizontally disposed hollow arms secured to and extending radially outward from said central housing member in symmetrically arranged positions; a plurality of loudspeakers, each secured within the outer end of a corresponding one of said arms; each of said arms containing an interior baffle, said baffle and the associated loudspeaker forming a resonance chamber within said arm; a set of lamp holders, each being supported on the outer end of one of said arms and extending vertically therefrom; music circuit means disposed within said central housing member and electrically coupled to all of said loudspeakers; and energizing circuit means contained within said suspending means and coupled to said music circuit means for energizing the same, and also coupled through said central housing member and said arms to each of said lamp holders for providing energy thereto.

Claim 10

In a combined illumination and audio system: an elongated hollow arm; means for releasably attaching one end of said arm to a central housing member; a loudspeaker disposed within and secured to the other end of said arm; a baffle transversely disposed within said arm, said baffle and loudspeaker together forming a resonance chamber; said arm having an opening in its side wall; a lamp socket supported in said side wall opening; said baffle having an opening therein; and an electrical cable extending from said one end of said arm through said baffle opening towards said other end of said arm, and being connected to both said lamp socket and said loudspeaker.

Claim 11

In a combined illumination and audio system: an elongated hollow arm; means for releasably attaching one end of said arm to a central housing member; a loudspeaker disposed within and secured to the other end of said arm; a baffle transversely disposed within said arm, said baffle and loudspeaker together forming a resonance chamber; said arm having an opening in its side wall; a lamp socket supported in said side wall opening; said baffle having an opening therein; and an electrical cable extending from said one end of said arm through said baffle opening towards said other end of said arm, and being connected to both said lamp socket and said loudspeaker.

Claim 12

Apparatus as claimed in claim 7 wherein said arm is of square cross-sectional configuration and has walls made of wood.

Claim 13

Apparatus as claimed in claim 6 which further includes control means positioned on the bottom of said central housing member for controlling said music circuit means.
