Abstract
A connecting assembly for a decorative lighting net employing intercrossed electrical wires to connect a plurality of bulb units is provided. The connecting assembly includes a bulb holder having at least one L-shaped beam formed at a side thereof. The connecting assembly also includes a bulb connector coupled to the bulb holder having at least one L-shaped beam oriented in a direction opposing the direction in which the bulb holder's beam is oriented. The bulb connector's beam engages the bulb holder's beam in longitudinally offset manner to block the escape of electrical wire retained within the bulb holder's beam.
Claims1
A connecting assembly for connecting a bulb unit to at least one electrical wire of a decorative lighting net comprising:
- (a) a longitudinally extended bulb holder having at least one L-shaped first beam portion for receiving the electrical wire therein, said first beam portion extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction and oriented in a first lateral direction;
- and
- (b) a bulb connector for retaining the bulb unit therein, said bulb connector including (i) at least a portion thereof adapted for insert into an opening of said bulb holder to join said bulb connector to said bulb holder, and (ii) at least one L-shaped second beam portion extending in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction and oriented in a second lateral direction, said second lateral direction being opposite said first lateral direction, said second beam portion being juxtaposed on said first beam portion when said bulb connector is joined to said bulb holder for forming an enclosed space to capture the electrical wire extending therethrough.
