Abstract
The lamp/reflector unit comprises a metal reflector (1) within which an electric lamp (3) is secured. A lamp base (20) is mounted to the reflector (1) by means of an elastic synthetic resin (23), which may substantially fill up the lamp base (20). Current conductors (22) which may each be composed of several thinner conductors, may connect contacts (21) of the lamp base (20) to current supply conductors (7) emanating from the lamp (3). They may be made of copper and be secured to the current supply conductors (7) in a clamping manner. The unit suppresses acoustic resonance.
