Abstract
A lamp socket switch power line fastening structure, comprising a top cover attached to a lamp socket through sliding joint, wherein the lamp socket has a groove at the top divided into two branch grooves by a raised, pointed strip, two notches on said two branch grooves, and two curved, conductive strip springs respectively fastened in the two notches and having each one end connected to either terminal contact of the switch therein and an opposite end turned into either branch groove to stop at a terminal end. Inserting a two-wire power line into the groove on the lamp socket causes the two conductors of the two-wire power line to be separated by the raised, pointed strip and moved into the two branch grooves to further become respectively connected to and retained by the two curved, conductive strip springs.
Claims2
A lamp socket switch power line fastening structure, comprising a lamp socket having a switch set therein, and a top cover attached to said lamp socket at a top thereof, wherein:
- said lamp socket has a groove at the top divided into two branch grooves by a raised, pointed strip, two notches on said two branch grooves, two curved, conductive strip springs respectively fastened in said two notches and having each one end connected to either terminal contact of said switch and an opposite end turned into either branch groove to stop at the terminal end thereof, and two slide ways at two opposite sides;
- said top cover has two elongated strips bilaterally projecting inwards at a bottom portion thereof and respectively engaged in said two slide ways on said lamp socket forming a sliding joint, and two elongated slots at the top at locations corresponding to said two branch grooves on said lamp socket;
- and wherein:
- inserting a two-wire power line into said groove causes the two conductors of said two-wire power line to be separated by said raised, pointed strip and moved into said two branch grooves to further become respectively connected to and retained by said two curved, conductive strip springs.
