  • the support 42 is made with a section essentially in U-shaped and therefore has two branches and one crosspiece connecting the pins, the branches having the reference numerals 40 and 41 and the crosspiece being formed by the plate 53.
  • the branches 40 and 41 have protrusions 113 on their outer edges, which widen on a T-shaped end and can be inserted in recesses inside the housing 3, in order to fix the support inside the case.
  • the support has a slot 114 for the electrical receiver, namely the lamp 43.
  • the housing 114 has for this purpose on its inner wall an opening 115 in the form of bayonet, which is formed on its closed end in an undercut form.
  • the support 42 also has housings 116 for conductive tracks 101 and 103. Sleepers 117 are arranged between the housings 116, so that the conductive tracks 103 are completely electrically isolated from each other. We can see that the conductive tracks 103 are bent two times in their longitudinal stretch plane in direction of the normals on the surface of this plane and in their direction perpendicular to this direction. The conductive tracks 103 therefore exhibit a setback linear on the one hand compared to the plan of the branch 40 and on the other hand parallel to the plane of the branch 40.
  • FIG. 6 the mode of embodiment according to FIG. 11 in a truncated form parallel to branches 40 and 41 and in a form Assembly.
