Attorney, Agent or Firm: Klughart; Kevin Mark

A light fixture cover system and method is disclosed in which the selectively detachable cover is also a unitary structure including a body having a peripheral sealing lip that fits over any corresponding industry standard outside light fixture. The sealing lip of the cover has at least one laterally extending tab member to assist in removing the cover from the fixture. The cover portion is preferably made from a resilient polymeric material suitable for both winter and summer weather conditions in addition to being impervious to the heat generated by the electrical bulb or bulbs contained it the light fixture.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The present invention system is generally illustrated in FIGS.
2 7, and the present invention method is generally illustrated in FIG.
8.
These will now be briefly described.
The present invention is essentially a low cost snap-on light fixture cover that permits enclosure of the light fixture without the need for retaining hardware or other structures.
As illustrated in FIG.
2-7, the exemplary embodiments of the present invention make use of a retaining lip (0201) and installation/removal tab (0204) to permit the lamp cover to be applied to and removed from the lamp fixture much as a resealable lid is installed/removed from a food packaging container as illustrated in FIG.
1 (0106).
The light fixture covers of the present invention can be economically thermo-formed from any one of a number of known thermoplastic resins including but not limited to polyamides, polyacrylics, polyarylates, polycarbonates, polyesters, polyetherimides, polyetherketones, polyolefins, polyphenylenes, polyvinylchlorides, and various styrene and liquid crystal polymers, among others.
As illustrated in FIG.
8 (0800), the present invention system may be integrated into an application method that permits the fast and efficient installation and/or replacement of a lamp fixture cover with no tools being required.
The low cost of the present invention system embodiments permits the creation of disposable lamp fixture covers that may be customized for a wide variety of visual effects, special lighting effects, or special events themes.
The various features, objects and advantages of the present invention should become still more apparent from a review of the following description of the drawings and invention in detail.
