Abstract:
A lamp socket mounting bracket which contains a pair of mounting clamps and is mounted within a reflector. The mounting clamps have reflector ends and socket ends which each have feet. The mounting clamps have curved portions to encompass a lamp socket which forms a fulcrum within the lamp socket mounting bracket. A clamp adjusting means is used at the socket ends of the mounting clamps to tighten the mounting clamps around the lamp socket, help make a substantial contact between the mounting clamps and the lamp socket, and create, along with the fulcrum, a reverse scissors action within the lamp socket mounting bracket.

1,020,950. Lamp cups or holders. AMP CORPORATION. Nov. 27, 1964 [Nov. 30, 1963], No. 48282/64. Heading H2E. An electrical connector for use with an iodine lamp having a central blade contact 8 and an outer 'rectangular contact 4, has an inner contact 1 held by resilient detent 13 within an insulating block 2, and an outer contact 3 which fits over the forward end of block 2 and is held by a resilient projection 21 on the 'block, engaging in a hole 26 of the contact. Both contacts have crimping ferrules, those 11 and 19 of the inner contact being located within a rear transverse recess 10 in the block, and these 27 and 28 of the outer contact being positioned between projections 22. The inner contact has a projection on its base to engage the hole on the central blade contact 8 of the lamp, and the outer contact has depressions 25 to engage the outer contact of the lamp. On engagement of the lamp in its holder, the arms of the inner contact are resiliently forced outwards against the constraint of the block 2.
Abstract:
Die vorliegende Beschreibung offenbart eine Installationsdose (10) zur Installation an einem Gebäude.

Das Gehäuse (11) weist eine Zwei-Pin-Fassung auf, die an dem Gehäuseboden angebracht ist, einen am Gehäuseboden ausgebildeten Befestigungsbereich zur Befestigung des Gehäuses (11) an einer Deckenwand und mindestens eine Öffnung zum Durchführen eines Kabels. In der Seitenwand sind Öffnungen (14) zur Befestigung des Gehäusedeckels (12) im Bereich einer Oberkante der Seitenwand vorgesehen. Die Installationsdose (10) weist einen Gehäusedeckel (12) mit einer Einsetzöffnung (13) und mit Öffnungen zur Befestigung auf, wobei die Öffnungen des Gehäusedeckels (12) den Öffnungen (1) der Seitenwand gegenüberliegen, wenn der Gehäusedeckel (12) in die Deckelöffnung eingesetzt ist. Eine Zugentlastungsscheibe (35) mit einer Öffnung zur Durchführung eines Kabels ist zwischen dem Gehäusedeckel (12) und dem Gehäuseboden angeordnet, wobei die Zugentlastungsscheibe (35) einen Durchmesser aufweist, der größer ist als die Einsetzöffnung (13) des Gehäusedeckels (12). Ein Zwei- Pin-Adapter der Installationsdose (10) ist in die Zwei-Pin-Fassung (19) einsetzbar.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a plastic base part provided with electrical connections for the energy supply of a lamp illuminant contained in a bulb. A first end of each electrical connection protrudes laterally from the plastic base part, perpendicularly to the longitudinal extension of the lamp base, in order to create electrical contact with the socket, and a second end of each electrical connection is connected to a current conducting wire leading out of the bulb, for the at least one illuminant. At least one recess, which is scalloped at least in sections and formed essentially in the axial direction of a circular section of the plastic base part, is arranged between a groove provided in said circular section and the outer diameter of the circular section.
Abstract:
A luminaire assembly (10) using a double-ended, unshielded high intensity discharge (HID) light source (100). In one aspect, the assembly (10) includes a light source mount (22) adapted to manually, without tools, mount and remove the HID light source (100). The light source mount (22) can optionally include structure (106L and R, 134L and R) to automatically position the light source (100) in a desired orientation. In another aspect, the assembly (10) includes a connection (104L and R, 304L and R, 306L and R) adapted to manually, without tools, connect the light source (100) to electrical power, the connection (104L and R, 304L and R, 306L and R) can be configured to have no electrically conducting surfaces directly exposed or accessible to human fingers and can be configured to be positioned relatively away from the light source (100). In another aspect, the assembly (10) can include an ignitor circuit for the light source (100) farther away from a ballast circuit for the light source (100) but closer to the light source (100). The ignitor circuit can be in a housing (16) that is mountable to the assembly (10).
Abstract:
The invention pertains to a constructional element and lighting system, especially for showcases, having at least one constructional element in the form of a support section (1) in which drilled holes (2) are situated at regular intervals. Each lighting unit (4) can be inserted into a drilled hole (2) in the support section (1). Arranged within the support section (1) is an electrical conductor (6) with which a contact piece (8) of the lighting unit (4) establishes electrical contact when the lighting unit (4) is plugged into the drilled hole (2). The second connection is conveniently formed by the support section (1) itself.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a screw-in type base for a lighting device being arranged to be mounted in a socket comprising a socket bottom conductor is provided. The base (100, 200, 300) comprising a threaded tubular enclosure (102) extending along an axial direction between a first (102a) and a second (102b) end portion of the enclosure (102), a base bottom conductor (103, 203, 311) arranged to be in electrically conductive contact with a light source (106) of the lighting device (400), and arranged to make electrically conductive, biased contact with the socket bottom conductor when the lighting device (400) is mounted in the socket, wherein the base bottom conductor (103, 203, 311) comprises a compliant thin-walled member (105, 205, 308) arranged such that the base bottom conductor (103, 203, 311) is, relative to the enclosure (102), movable in the axial direction in response to engagement with the socket bottom conductor when the lighting device (400) is mounted in the socket. The present invention also relates to a lighting device (400) comprising the base.
Abstract:
Fixtures, apparatuses, and related methods are provided that provide for a non-Edison connection for receiving a lamp housing of a lighting device having a non-Edison connector. The fixture can include a fixture housing and a non-Edison socket securable to the fixture housing. The fixture can also include an engagement device for engaging a lamp housing of a lighting device that has a non-Edison connector upon insertion of the lamp housing into the fixture housing and engaging the non-Edison socket.
Abstract:
A lamp which has a lamp glass envelope (14) having contact pins (16) projecting from its end (15) and which is held in a socket receptacle (9) having an insulator (2, 6), wherein the insulator (2, 6) holds a small metallic tube (1) between a contact pin (16) of the lamp envelope (14) and a current-feeding connecting cable (4) in at least one through hole, to which small tube (1) the contact pin (16) is crimped and the connecting cable (4) is connected.
Abstract:
A corner mount light fixture has an extruded housing base with two mutually perpendicular housing walls and a wire channel coextruded with the housing base. A lamp holder snap mounts to the wire channel and pierces the insulation of a conductor pair press fitted in the channel. The conductor pair runs between two terminal blocks also snap mounted to the wire channel near opposite ends of the housing, so that multiple lamp holders can be installed at intervals along the conductor pair. Plastic housing covers snap onto the extruded housing base on either side of each lamp holder, and a glass lens is supported over each lamp holder in guideways molded on the housing covers. The lens slides along the guideways to open the housing for access to the lamp holder. Multiple fixtures can be daisy chained by interconnecting terminal blocks of adjacent fixtures.
