Abstract
A suspended electric lamp according to this invention is characterized in that the conducting wires at their ends are loosely connectable to two tensioned lead-in wires fed with low voltage.
Claims6
A suspended electric lamp comprising:
- a light source;
- two tensioned lead-in wires fed with low voltage;
- two conducting wires, each having a first and second end, said conducting wires, supporting and serving as a power supply for said light source, said conducting wires being substantially flexible at least at said first ends thereof, said first ends of said conducting wires being each releasably connected to one of said two tensioned lead-in wires;
- and
- said first ends of said flexible conducting wires are wound around said lead-in wires.

A suspended electric lamp comprising:
- a light source;
- two tensioned lead-in wires fed with low voltage;
- and
- two conducting wires, each having a first and second end, said conducting wires, supporting and serving as a power supply for said light source, said conducting wires being substantially flexible at least at said first ends thereof, said first ends of said conducting wires being each releasably connected to one of said two tensioned lead-in wires;
- and
- the first ends of said flexible conducting wires are placed across said lead in wires and carry at their first ends counter-weight means for counterbalancing the weight of said lamp source to hold said light source of the lamp in an operational position.
