Jacobson [57] ABSTRACT An unbased, wedge-type of lamp bulb is cemented to a reflector plate from which it projects in one direction into a sealed chamber formed in a lens cover to which the reflector plate is peripherally cemented. The base portion of the bulb projects into a socket of a holder within which the rim portion of the lens cover is releasably held.
9 Claims, 8 Drawing Figures 1 DISPOSABLE WEDGE-TYPE BULB LAMP This invention relates to vehicle mounted types of lamps and, more particularly, to a lamp assembly featuring a replaceable type of bulb section.
Lamp assemblies specially designed for installation on vehicles and vehicular trailers, are well known. These lamp assemblies are often expensive to make because of installational requirements and environmental problems involving mounting space, vibration and extreme weather condition. Such lamp assemblies furthermore involve a considerable expense for replacement of a burned out bulb filament. It is, therefore, an important object of the present invention to provide a lamp assembly which is very economical to manufacture, install and maintain.
In accordance with the foregoing objects, the present invention features a bulb assembly in which an unbased, wedge-type bulb is cemented within an opening formed in a reflector plate so as to project into a sealed chamber enclosed by the reflector plate within a lens cover. The rim of the lens cover is received and releasably held within a flexibly elastic holder having a socket portion adapted to receive the base portion of the bulb projecting from the reflector.
These together with other objects and advantages which will become subsequently apparent reside in the details of construction and operation as more fully hereinafter described and claimed, reference being had to the accompanying drawings forming a part hereof, wherein like numerals refer to like parts throughout, and in which:
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a typical lamp assembly constructed in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing the disassembled parts of the lamp assembly.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view showing the power contact element associated with the lamp holder part.
FIG. 4 is a perspective view showing the ground contact element associated with the lamp holder.
FIG. 5 is a front elevational view of the lamp holder.
FIG. 6 is a side sectional view through the lamp assembly.
FIG. 7 is a rear elevational view of the lamp holder.
FIG. 8 is a transverse sectional view through the lamp assembly mounted in a typical installation.
Referring now to the drawings in detail, a lamp assembly generally denoted by reference numeral 10 in FIG. 1 consists of a lamp holder base generally referred to by reference numeral l2-and a bulb assembly gener-' ally referred to by reference numeral 14. The lamp assembly shown assembled in FIG. 1 is readily disassembled as shown in FIG. 2 for replacement of the bulb assembly 14 which is a relatively inexpensive item.
Referring to FIGS. 6 and 8 in particular, the bulb assembly 14 includes a transparent or translucent lens cover 16 of a suitable oblong shape having a peripheral rim portion 18. A reflector plate 20 is peripherally sealed to the lens cover by cementing or welding using ultra sonic energy, for example, thereby enclosing a sealed chamber 22. While the lens cover 16 is made of a light transmissive, plastic material, the reflector plate 20 is made of an opaque plastic material and is provided with a central opening 24 through which an unbased, wedge-type buld 26 extends.
The bulb 26 is cemented to the reflector plate, completely filling the opening 24 so that its light emitting portion is enclosed within the chamber 22 while its base portion projects rearwardly therefrom. An incandescent filament 28 within the bulb provides the source of illumination when electrical current is conducted therethrough by means of a filament leads which extend into a pair of terminal portion 30 of the bulb.
The bulb assembly is recieved within the holder base 12 which is made of a flexibly elastic material or a rigid plastic. The holder body 32 includes a front face 34 within which an oval recess 36 is formed adapted to receive the rim portion 18 of the bulb assembly. The periphery 38 of the recess is accordingly ribbed for frictional gripping of the bulb assembly. Projecting into the recess opening from the holder body is a socket portion 40. The socket portion is positioned for alignment with the projecting base portion of the bulb 26 when the bulb assembly is inserted into the recess 36. When the bulb assembly is fully seated as shown in FIGS. 6 and 8, contact is made between the filament leads and a pair of contact elements 42 and 44 embedded within the holder body 34.
The holder body as more clearly seen in FIGS. 6 and 8, includes a rearwardly extending formation 46 within which the contact elements are embedded and located essentially between a pair of anchor portions 48. Each anchor portion is provided with an opening 50 through which a conductive fastener is adapted to extend for mounting the holder body on a suitable surface such as the channel formation 52 as shown in FIG. 8. The contact element 42 is completely embedded within the formation 46 and includes a clip portion 54 as more clearly seen in FIG. 3 into which one of the terminal portions 30 of the bulb is received. The clip portion 54 is connected by a pair of arms 56 to a pair of angularly related connector sleeves 58 that are adapted to hold a powerline connector60 exposed through an opening 62 in the formation 46 between the bulb and an anchor portion 48. Thus, the leads from a power cable 64 such as shown in FIG. 8, may be inserted through either end of the formation 46 in order to establish an electrical connection through the connector 60 and the contact element 42 with one terminal lead of the bulb.
The other terminal lead of the bulb is adapted to be in contact with a clip portion 66 of the contact element 44 which is provided with ring formations 68 at opposite ends adapted to be aligned with the openings 50 in the anchor portions of the holder body to thereby establish through the fasteners, a ground connection. The connecting arm portion 70 of the contact element 44 is embedded within the holder body in spaced relation to the contact element 42 in order to position the clip portion 66 in close spaced relation to the clip portion 54 so that both clip portions will be aligned with the closely spaced terminal portions 30 of the bulb as more clearly seen in FIG. 8.
It will, therefore, be apparent from the foregoing description that a bulb assembly 14 may be readily inserted into the recess 36 of a holder body and electrical contact will be made with the wedge-type bulb projecting rearwardly therefrom when received within the socket portion 40. The bulb assembly will be frictionally held in position and may be readily removed for replacement purposes.
The foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous mitt modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
