Assemblies, systems and methods for balanced suspension of luminaires are provided. In some embodiments a luminaire mounting and suspension assembly is provided comprising a mounting unit and a plurality of suspension units. Each suspension unit comprises a housing coupled to the mounting unit and a yoke pivotally coupled to the housing at a pivot point. The yoke comprises a pair of cable grippers, each cable gripper positioned on opposing sides of the pivot point and configured to grip a suspension cable for suspending a luminaire, wherein an axis of the pivot point is perpendicular to axes of the suspension cables and whereby free rotation of the yoke about the pivot point evenly balances tension between the suspension cables. In some embodiments a luminaire system is provided comprising a mounting and suspension assembly and a luminaire suspended by the assembly. In some embodiments a method of suspending a luminaire is provided comprising providing and suspending a luminaire system and employing the system to evenly balance tension between pairs of suspension cables.

Assemblies, systems and methods for balanced suspension of luminaires

A system and method are provided for levelling suspended luminaires. The system includes a shuttle and a thumb wheel disposed in a housing. The shuttle includes a gripper for securing the cable wires that attach to the luminaire. A rotational movement of the thumb wheel is translated to linear movement of the shuttle within a slot of the housing to allow adjustment of an attachment point of the cable wire relative to the rest of the luminaire to enable tool-free levelling of the luminaire.
