Abstract
A universally adjustable lamp fixture includes a separate base plate, light shield and lens assembly. The shield and base plate are releasably connected together to permit the single base plate to be connected with shields having different shapes, depending on the use to which the lamp fixture is to be applied. The shield is rotatable with respect to the base plate which, when a non-symmetrical shield is used, provides control of the orientation of the light patterns. The lens assembly includes a rotatably mounted lens having an engaging socket formed therein to permit it to be rotated by a complementary formed key. This permits control of the light pattern even after the lens has become too hot to safely touch. Alternatively a lens assembly, which includes a gripping member, may be used to rotate the lens and shield simultaneously.
