20150380877 | Grounding Apparatus for a Safety Grounded Tree - An artificial lighted tree is presented with power routed through the trunk of the tree and three-wire safety grounding. The tree is divided into sections for easy assembly, disassembly, and storage. The base of the tree is grounded through a three-prong safety grounded electrical cord and each section of the tree makes a ground connection with the base section as it is assembled to the artificial lighted tree. Electrical connections to power the lights may be made outside the trunk of the tree or through electrical connections within the tree. | 12-31-2015 |
20150194774 | GROUNDING APPARATUS FOR A SAFETY GROUNDED TREE - An artificial lighted tree is presented with power routed through the trunk of the tree and three-wire safety grounding. The tree is divided into sections for easy assembly, disassembly, and storage. Safety electrical connectors at the ends of each section are not powered until the sections are assembled. The tree can also accommodate multiple lighting circuits utilizing different voltages simultaneously. | 07-09-2015 |
20150108910 | Apparatus and method for controlling LED light strings - An enhanced control mechanism for an LED light string system is provided for switching between one of two DC output phases or polarities so as to actuate one or the other of two LEDs within the bulbs on the light string. The control mechanism is further configured to allow switching so as to pass through the input power provided by a high-to-low voltage converter that is plugged into its electrical power feeding end. The control mechanism may then provide rectified AC voltage, or DC voltage, of various switched values to the LED string according to the particular needs of the LED bulbs. | 04-23-2015 |
