US Patent 10557622 Recessed lighting fixture with orientation adjusting apparatus

A recessed light fixture and methods for manufacturing the same are disclosed. Embodiments include a support base and an adjusting bracket pivotally connected to the support base, the support base capable of pivoting between a first pivot position and a second pivot position to facilitate a user moving the adjusting bracket. When a lighting source is connected to the adjusting bracket, a user is able to move the lighting source and bracket aside to facilitate the user accessing the region behind the lighting source and bracket, which can include a power supply box and door. In at least one embodiment, a single-blade bracket extends perpendicularly from the support base while in the first pivot position and does not extend perpendicularly from the support base while in the second pivot position.
