A light fitting for recessed mounting of a luminaire in a substrate includes a luminaire support having a neck portion to support a luminaire and a head portion having a light beam channel for the passage of light from a luminaire through the luminaire support to a mouth and a peripheral insert defining at least a portion of the light beam channel, which facilitates provision of inter-changeable functions and features on the internal surface of the luminaire support and within the light beam channel.

A coupling mechanism for a lighting apparatus (and a lighting apparatus having a housing, a mount and the coupling mechanism for coupling the lighting apparatus to the housing) has a first coupling member comprising a curved strip and a second coupling member comprising a retaining element for magnet coupling with the curved strip at multiple positions along its length whereby the first coupling member may be adjustably orientated about at least one axis relative to the second coupling member. The lighting system having the coupling mechanism is thus a multi-direction lighting system which may be directed over a wide illumination area and which is simple and easy to assemble and adjust.

A light fitting system has a light fitting for recessed mounting of a luminaire in a substrate such as a ceiling, which fitting comprises a luminaire support and a base for receiving the luminaire support and in relation to which base the luminaire support may be manipulated or moved or directed, and a tool for manipulating the luminaire support. The luminaire support and the luminaire support tool are configured for cooperative inter-engagement whereby the tool may be releasably inter-engaged with the luminaire support to enable manipulation of the luminaire support in relation to the base providing the advantage of a readily adaptable or manipulated luminaire support angularly adjustable or removable by means of the luminaire support tool thereby enabling adjustment and/or removal and replacement of a luminaire from a base without dismantling the fitting from the substrate into which it is mounted.

A light fitting (10) for recessed mounting of a luminaire (200) in a substrate, comprising a base (20) having a longitudinal axis (X-X); a luminaire (200); and an adjustable coupling mechanism to adjust the position of the luminaire (200) in relation to the base (20) along both directions of the longitudinal axis (X-X). The adjustable coupling mechanism is operable by way of rotation of the luminaire (200) to couple or decouple the luminaire (200) from the base (20). The coupling mechanism comprises a pin arrangement (50a, 50b) on the base (20) and a channel arrangement (60a, 60b) on the heat sink (204) of the luminaire (200). The pin arrangement (50a, 50b) is engageable with the channel arrangement (60a, 60b) to couple the luminaire (200) in at least two different positions and is disengageable from the channel arrangement (60a, 60b) to decouple the luminaire (200) from the base (20).
