A holder for a light bulb, wherein the bulb is connected to a reflector, for example for vehicular lamps. The reflector has its rear provided with brackets of such a configuration that a cap flange of the bulb, and recesses present therein, fit in the brackets in such a way that the bulb sets in its position. The brackets are provided with opposing lips, against which the cap flange rests and the cap flange is securable to the lips by means of U-shaped gripping jaws of the holder.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION 1.
A light assembly comprising: a reflector having a bracket extending from a rear end thereof, the bracket including a pair of lips each having front and rear surfaces, and a pair of projections; a bulb including a front portion positioned and extending between the lips of the bracket, and a cap flange engaging the rear surface of the lips, the cap flange including a plurality of recesses, each of the recesses receiving a respective one of the projections of the bracket to prevent rotation of the bulb; and a holder for securing the bulb to the bracket, the holder comprising a pair of U-shaped gripping jaws interconnected by a web plate, each gripping jaw including front and rear legs, the front legs arranged to engage the front surfaces of respective lips of the bracket, the rear legs arranged to engage a rear surface of the cap flange, the holder further including an electric terminal adapted for receiving a power supply connector.
2.
The light assembly according to claim 1 wherein the front surfaces of the lips include respective recesses, each of the front legs including a prong received in a respective recess.
3.
The light assembly according to claim 1 wherein the power supply connector is a ground wire.
4.
The light assembly according to claim 3 wherein the electric terminal is located on the web plate.
5.
The light assembly according to claim 3 wherein the power supply connector is connected by a bayonet coupling.




Description:
BACKGROUND The invention relates to a holder for a bulb, whereby the bulb is connected to a reflector for example for vehicular lamps and wherein the reflector has its rear provided with brackets of such a design that a cap flange of the bulb, and recesses present therein, fit in the brackets in such a way that the bulb sets in its position.
At present, bulbs are connected by means of various rotatable socket solutions, plates, and various hinged spring systems.
All these prior known solutions are complicated, expensive and difficult to use
