Claim 0:
1. A light fixture installation adapter comprising:
a first bracket configured to be attached to a light fixture;
a second bracket configured to be attached to an electrical junction box;
a mounting assembly comprising a first component and a second component attached to the first bracket and the second bracket, respectively, wherein the second component defines a receiving structure that defines an opening for receipt of an elongated structure of the first component for restricted movement of the first component along an axis in a substantially upward direction, wherein the first component is configured to engage with and to attach to the second component when the first component is oriented in a predetermined position along the vertical direction with respect to the second component and when the first component is rotated about the axis for attaching the first bracket to the second bracket via the mounting assembly,
wherein the first component and the second component define a first set of features and a second set of features, respectively, that are configured to engage one another for the attachment of the first component to the second component, wherein the first set of features are shaped to freely move with respect to the second set of features when the first component is oriented in the predetermined position and the first component moves in the upward direction, wherein the first set of features are positioned on an outside surface of the elongated structure, wherein the second set of features are positioned on an inside surface of the receiving structure,
wherein the first set of features comprise a plurality of ledge-shaped structures substantially aligned in vertical direction when the first component is oriented in the predetermined position, and
wherein the second set of features comprises a plurality of ledge-shaped structures configured to engage the ledge-shaped structures and to prevent the first component from moving in a downward direction after the first component is moved in the one or more predetermined directions.
