1. A lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a bracket comprising a main wall defining an opening, two mounting plates extending from the main wall and respectively located at opposite sides of the opening, each mounting plate defining a slide slot in a first side of the mounting plate, and a first notch and a second notch in an inner surface of a second side of the mounting plate;
a pivoting member movably attached to the bracket, wherein the pivoting member comprises a base board and two opposite side boards extending from opposite ends of the base board, a sliding block extends from a first end of an outer surface of each side board, a tab is attached to a second end of the outer surface of each side board; and
a lighting unit fixed in the pivoting member between the side boards;
a light guiding unit, wherein the light guiding unit is fixed in the pivoting member and abuts against the lighting unit;
wherein the light guiding unit comprises a transparent guiding body and two clipping members attached to opposite ends of the transparent guiding body, the tab extends from an outer surface of each clipping member, each side board defines a through hole through which the tab extends out of the side board;
wherein the sliding blocks of the pivoting member are slidably engaged in the corresponding slide slots of the bracket, when the lighting unit is to be used, the pivoting member is pivoted out of the bracket until the tabs engage in the corresponding first notches to expose the lighting unit; and
when the lighting unit is to be folded into the bracket, the pivoting member is pivoted into the bracket until the tabs engage in the corresponding second notches to cover the lighting unit.
