Title: Light Bulb Changer
United States Patent 6826983
Abstract: A light bulb changer method and apparatus that contains components that allows for instantly detecting a burned out light with a replacement bulb. The changer operates without human intervention, and can be assembled from a kit having a light fixture, detecting sensor, removing and replacement hardware. The kit can allow a consumer to assemble the changer for use as a novelty item, and/or also to be used as a working light fixture, such as a table lamp, and the like. The changer can also be used as a retrofit for existing light fixtures so that the existing light fixtures can be modified.
Analysis: In essence, the purpose behind this invention is to provide an automatic sensor and apparatus in terms of detecting and replacing burned out light bulbs. And in terms of validity, it cannot be argued against that this is a lack of invention or this lacks novelty. Quite frankly, this machine is revolutionary in the sense that it provides users the capability to have their light bulbs replaced automatically. This machine is undoubtedly non-obvious in terms of providing a service that the prior art for this does not account for, making this quite an original invention. What makes this patent silly is the fact that this contraption is so complex to complete such a simple task that its purpose is nonsensical.
