Abstract
The invention relates to a reflector for an electric lamp, and a reflector lamp having an improved fastening of the electric contacts. The reflector body consists of an electrically insulating plastic and, for the purpose of making electric contact with the lamp, has contact lugs that are fixed at least two different locations on the outer side of the reflector body with the aid of claws or barbs integrally formed on the contact lugs.
Claims10
A reflector for an electric lamp, the reflector comprising:
- a reflector body with an inner side, designed in an optically reflecting fashion, and an outer side as well as at least one cutout for the lamp or for a lamp part, and at least one metallic contact element that is designed as an angular contact lug being fastened on said outer side of the reflector body, wherein said reflector body consists of an electrically insulating plastic, and said at least one contact lug is fixed to at least two different locations of said reflector body with the aid of claws or barbs that are integrally formed on said at least one contact lug,
- wherein the reflector body has at least one pin integrally formed on the outer side of said reflector body, and a first limb of the at least one contact lug has a cutout in which said at least one pin is arranged with a clamping fit, said cutout being provided with said claws or barbs.
A reflector for an electric lamp, the reflector comprising:
- a reflector body with an inner side, designed in an optically reflecting fashion, and an outer side as well as at least one cutout for the lamp or for a lamp part, and at least one metallic contact element that is designed as an angular contact lug being fastened on said outer side of the reflector body, wherein said reflector body consists of an electrically insulating plastic, and said at least one contact lug is fixed to at least two different locations of said reflector body with the aid of claws or barbs that are integrally formed on said at least one contact lug, wherein the reflector body has on its outer side at least one depression in which there is arranged a part of said contact lug that extends transverse to a first limb of said at least one metallic contact lug, said part of the at least one metallic contact lug that extends transverse to said first limb being provided with said claws or barbs.
A reflector lamp comprising:
- a reflector and an electric lamp arranged in said reflector, wherein
- said electric lamp has at least one supply lead, projecting from a lamp vessel, for a luminous means enclosed in said lamp vessel,
- said reflector has a reflector body with an inner side, designed in an optically reflecting fashion, and an outer side,
- said reflector body having at least one cutout, through which said at least one supply lead is led, and at least one metallic contact element that is fastened on its outer side and is connected to the at least one supply lead, and is designed as an angular contact lug,
- wherein said reflector body consists of an electrically insulating plastic, and said at least one contact lug is fixed to at least two different locations of said reflector body with the aid of claws or barbs that are integrally formed on said at least one contact lug, and
- wherein the reflector body has at least one pin integrally formed on the outer side of said reflector body, and a first limb of said at least one contact lug has a cutout in which said at least one pin is arranged with a clamping fit, said cutout being provided with said claws or barbs.
