Utility mount light
A battery-powered utility light mountable to a workpiece comprising a main body and a plurality of lights coupled to the main body. Each of the plurality of lights are independently movable relative to the main body. The utility light further includes a first mode actuator that is configured to cycle one of the plurality of lights through a plurality of lighting modes and a second mode actuator that is configured to cycle a different one of the plurality of lights through a plurality of lighting modes separately from the other plurality of lights. The utility light further includes a hooking element that is moveably coupled to the main body between an open position, in which the workpiece is permitted to be received in an opening, and a closed position, in which the workpiece is inhibited from being removed from the opening. The opening is disposed between the main body and the hooking element.
1. A battery-powered utility light mountable to a workpiece, the utility light comprising:
a main body;
a plurality of lights coupled to the main body, each of the plurality of lights being independently movable relative to the main body;
a first mode actuator that is configured to cycle one of the plurality of lights through a plurality of lighting modes;
a second mode actuator that is configured to cycle a different one of the plurality of lights through a plurality of lighting modes separately from the other plurality of lights; and
a hooking element that is moveably coupled to the main body between an open position, in which the workpiece is permitted to be received in an opening, and a closed position, in which the workpiece is inhibited from being removed from the opening,
wherein the opening is disposed between the main body and the hooking element.
2. The utility light of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of lights includes a light housing, a lens coupled to the light housing, and one or more lights emitters disposed within the light housing for projecting light through the lens.
3. The utility light of claim 2 , wherein each light housing is pivotable relative to the main body about a light axis, such that the one or more light emitters may project light at various angles relative to the workpiece.
4. The utility light of claim 3 , wherein the hooking element slides between the open position and the closed position along an axial direction that is perpendicular to the light axis.
5. The utility light of claim 1 , wherein the hooking element is biased by a spring toward the closed position.
6. The utility light of claim 5 , wherein the hooking element is moved toward the open position against the bias of the spring by pulling a handle.
7. The utility light of claim 1 , wherein the main body includes a battery receptacle for receiving a battery.
8. A battery-powered utility light mountable to a workpiece, the utility light comprising:
a main body;
a first light having a first light housing, a first lens, and a first light emitter within the first light housing for projecting light through the first lens, wherein the first light housing is pivotable relative to the main body about a light axis;
a second light having a second light housing, a second lens, and a second light emitter within the second light housing for projecting light through the second lens, wherein the second light housing is pivotable relative to the main body about the light axis separately from the first light housing;
a hooking element that is translatable relative to the main body along an axial direction that is perpendicular to the light axis, wherein the hooking element facilitates with coupling the main body to the workpiece; and
a spring coupled to the hooking element to bias the hooking element toward the main body.
9. The utility light of claim 8 , wherein the hooking element is translatable between an open position, in which the workpiece is permitted to be received in an opening, and a closed position, in which the workpiece is inhibited from being removed from the opening.
10. The utility light of claim 9 , wherein the opening is between the main body and the hooking element.
11. The utility light of claim 9 , wherein the hooking element is biased toward the closed position by the spring.
12. The utility light of claim 11 , wherein the hooking element is moved toward the open position against the bias of the spring by pulling a handle.
13. The utility light of claim 12 , wherein the handle is coupled to the hooking element.
14. The utility light of claim 8 , wherein the main body includes a battery receptacle for receiving a battery.
15. A battery-powered utility light mountable to a workpiece, the utility light comprising:
a main body;
a plurality of lights coupled to the main body, each of the plurality of lights being independently movable relative to the main body;
a first mode actuator that is configured to cycle one of the plurality of lights through a plurality of lighting modes;
a second mode actuator that is configured to cycle a different one of the plurality of lights through a plurality of lighting modes separately from the other plurality of lights; and
an opening formed by at least a portion of the main body and configured to selectively receive the workpiece,
wherein the opening is opened to allow the workpiece to be received within the opening adjacent the main body, and
wherein the opening is closed to inhibit the workpiece from being removed from the opening adjacent the main body.
16. The utility light of claim 15 , further comprising a hooking element that is moveable to open and close the opening.
17. The utility light of claim 16 , wherein the plurality of lights are independently pivotable relative to the main body about a light axis.
18. The utility light of claim 17 , wherein the hooking element is translatable along an axial direction that is perpendicular to the light axis.
19. The utility light of claim 18 , wherein the hooking element is biased along the axial direction via a spring to close the opening.
20. The utility light of claim 19 , wherein the hooking element is moved against the bias of the spring by pulling a handle coupled to the hooking element.
