Abstract
A removable handle for a surgical light fixture includes a tubular handle, a circular shield, and a threaded portion. The circular shield includes two living hinges which permit the shield to be folded down against the handle for storage. A plurality of tabs are disposed on the lower face of the shield, and a matching indentation is formed on the lower end of the handle, to enable two handles to be frictionally engaged together by engaging the tabs of one handle with the indentations of the other. The handle is attached to a light fixture by means of an adapter which includes at least one projecting portion which presses against and deforms the circular shield and prevent the living hinges from hinging, thereby causing the folding portions of the circular shield to be held rigidly in place while the handle is attached to the light fixture.
