Anti-luxation device for clasper of power-supply wires in a lamp string

#1. Field of the Invention

#This invention relates to an ornamental lamp, and particularly to an ornamental lamp which is furnished with a device to prevent the clasper becoming luxated from the socket.

#2. Description of the Prior Art

#FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the present invention, showing a given number of lamp strings formed into a lamp network.

#FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the present invention, showing a single socket being held in place with a clasper.

#FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the present invention, showing a second-direction clamp structure.

#Referring to FIG. 1, it shows a lamp network made of a plurality of ornamental lamps, and it comprises a main power-supply cable 13 and a plurality of lamp strings 12; each lamp string is connected with one socket of the main power -supply cable 13 by means of a connecting member 15. Each lamp string 12 includes an independent power-supply wire 18A and an independent Power-supply wire 18B to connect a plurality of sockets in series; the base surface 19 of every socket 14 in each lamp string 12 is mounted with a clasper 17, of which the lamp chute 44 is used for holding the power-supply wire 18B in place. In the network ornamental lamp 11, the upper part of each socket 14 has a fastening member 27 mounted around the bulb 16; the tail end of an arm plate 29 of the fastening member 27 has a hook hole 30 to be mated with a hook 46 of an arm plate 45 extended out of the clasper 17 so as to prevent the clasper 17 from luxating.

#Referring to FIGS. 1 to 5, one end of each socket 14 in each lamp string 12 has a connector 15 to be mounted with a bulb 16, while the other end thereof has a guide chute for receiving power-supply wires 18. Both sides of the guide chute are furnished with two symmetrical flat surfaces 20 and two symmetrical curved surfaces 22 respectively so as to provide a socket-positioning surface 19 for mounting the clasper 17.

#The clasper 17 to be mounted on the socket-positioning surface 19 of the socket 14 has an outer edge, which includes two symmetrical wide wall plates 41 and two symmetrical curved plates 42; the inside of the clasper 17 has a clamp sleeve 47 for mounting the socket-positioning surface 19 of the socket 14; both sides of clamp sleeve 47 are furnished with two symmetrical clamp chutes 44 respectively. One of the wide wall plate 41 A has a cutout 43, which can facilitate the power-supply wires 18 to be inserted into the clamp sleeve 47 before the clasper 17 being mounted on the socket-positioning surface 19 of the socket 14. Before the clasper 17 is mounted to the socket 14, the power-supply wires should be inserted into the clamp chute 44 first.
