  • the lamp base including the adjusting sleeve can be preassembled and only then the fixing ring with pinch seal of the lamp vessel can be introduced. This allows a greater automation of the manufacturing process of the lamp cap and thus a cost reduction in the manufacturing process.
  • the threading slope is formed integrally with the fixing ring, so that a solid component with advantageous mechanical properties is present.
  • the threading bevel is formed over the entire circumference of the fixing ring, so that a uniform threading of the fixing ring into the sleeve and a uniform alignment of the lamp in the lateral direction can take place. It is further preferred that the Kladelschräge is formed as two circumferentially spaced portions, between which a respective recess is provided. A strip connection may be located in this recess during the production process, so that the holding of the fixing ring can be made simple during the production process via this strip connection.
  • the threading slope comprises significantly more than two segments arranged along the fixing ring circumference, which are bent inwards, so that the fixing ring has a reduced outside diameter in the region of the segments. The distance between the individual segments of the threading slope is advantageously as small as possible in order to avoid catching the parts during transport and assembly.
  • the fixing ring is produced from a stamped strip. As a result, a plurality of fixing rings can be formed simultaneously.
  • the fixing ring has a circular disk-shaped cover surface, in which a sealed end of the lamp vessel can be anchored. This allows the central insertion of the lamp vessel and the joint introduction of lamp vessel and fixing ring in the sleeve after completion of the Sokelkelkel.
  • FIG. 1 shows a pinch seal of a lamp vessel and a fixing ring and an adjusting sleeve according to a first embodiment of the invention in the sectional view
  • Fig. 3 is a side view of the fixing ring according to a third embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a punching strip with three fixing rings according to the second embodiment of the invention
  • Fig. 5 shows a cross section through the fixing ring according to the third embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 6 is a plan view of the underside of the fixing ring according to the third embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 1 shows a fixing ring 1 in an adjustment sleeve 2 of a lamp base into which a pinch seal 4 of a light source, such as a halogen incandescent lamp, a vehicle headlamp is inserted.
  • the adjusting sleeve 2 is formed as open at its ends, metallic hollow cylinder, which is preferably arranged coaxially to the central axis of the lamp cap and welded thereto.
  • an annular collar 8 is formed with three in Fig. 2 partially shown reference straps.
  • Fig. 1 shows a fixing ring 1 in an adjustment sleeve 2 of a lamp base into which a pinch seal 4 of a light source, such as a halogen incandescent lamp, a vehicle headlamp is inserted.
  • the adjusting sleeve 2 is formed as open at its ends, metallic hollow cylinder, which is preferably arranged coaxially to the central axis of the lamp cap and welded thereto.
  • an annular collar 8 is formed with three in
  • the reference tabs are designated by 10A and 10B and these are from the lateral surface of the adjusting sleeve 2 in the direction of the diameter of the adjusting sleeve 2 from.
  • These reference tabs, together with spring tabs on the lamp base, not shown in the figures, are used for mounting the halogen incandescent lamp in the vehicle headlamp into the mounting opening of the headlamp reflector and fixed in the mounting opening in the manner of a bayonet catch by a quarter turn around the longitudinal axis of the lamp. As a result, the lamp is fixed in the axial direction.
  • the adjusting sleeve 2 has an annular section 12 with a reduced inner and outer diameter for receiving the fixing ring 1.
  • the fixing ring 1 of the lamp cap serves to hold the pinch seal of the lamp vessel.
  • This fixing ring 1 is cup-shaped in such a manner that its outer diameter is smaller than the inner diameter of the annular portion 12 of the adjusting sleeve 2.
  • the adjusting sleeve 2 facing, open end 14 of the fixing ring 1 is limited by a Mahdelschräge 16 whose peripheral surface is smaller towards the open end 14.
  • Fig. 2 shows a side view of the fixing ring 1 with integrally formed Kaydelschräge 16.
  • the open end 14 opposite end of the fixing ring 1 is covered by a circular disc-shaped cover surface 18.
  • In the lid surface 18 is an opening 20 in which the pinch seal 4 is anchored with a press fit.
  • spring tongues are arranged along the edge of the opening 18, of which in FIG. 1 the middle spring tabs 22a, 22b and a pair of lateral spring tabs 24a, 24b are visible.
  • the middle spring tabs 22a, 22b are preferably arched towards the periphery in order to engage with guide webs 26a, 26b on the pinch seal 4.
  • the guide webs 26a, 26b slide on insertion of the pinch seal 4 into the cover surface 18 of the fixing ring 1 on the middle spring tabs 22a, 22b.
  • the Kladelschräge 16 is formed over the entire outer circumference and thus allows this insertion of the fixing ring with attached crushing 4 from the burner side into the adjustment sleeve. 2
  • the adjusting sleeve can be fitted with a base part before the fixing ring is inserted into the adjusting ring. be provided sleeve and thus the Kaydelhus the fixing ring can be improved over the production line. In addition, a cost reduction can be achieved by the simple geometric design of the fixing ring.
  • the adjusting sleeve can be integrally formed with adjacent base part before the penetration of the fixing ring and thus this one-piece section can be purchased as a purchased part.
  • Fig. 3 shows a fixing ring 40 according to the second embodiment, which differs from the fixing ring 1 of the first embodiment in that the threading slope 42 of the second embodiment is divided into two sections 42a, 42b. Between these two sections 42a, 42b, each of which sweeps over an angle of less than 180 °, strip connections 44a, 44b are located at diametrically opposite end sections, over which the fixing ring 40 engages on a continuous punching strip, which has a multiplicity Fixing rings, is held.
