Abstract

A solar-powered collapsible lighting apparatus and methods of assembling such a lighting apparatus are disclosed.

Description

[0001] related application [0002] This application is related to, and claims priority from, US Provisional Application 60 / 765,762, filed February 6, 2006, the entire contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates generally to lighting devices, and more particularly to collapsible solar powered lighting devices. Background technique [0004] Lighting can provide significant character to any home, yard or garden. Among the many different types of lighting fixtures available are hanging lanterns such as those commonly known as Asian hanging lanterns. Such lanterns typically use traditional light sources and power sources, for example, incandescent bulbs powered by the household electrical system, which limits where the lantern can be hung. These lanterns can also be quite bulky and, therefore, expensive and cumbersome to ship, transport and store. Therefore, there is a need to provide alternative energy sourc...
