is inserted and connected to the electric circuit within the instrument body 2. Further, a timer part is built into the upper part of the pole 15, and the timer part can be used to arbitrarily set the lighting time.

Next, the gist of the present invention will be explained. That is, the flange 17 of the stabilizer cover 11 is formed into a circular and flat plate shape.
The chevron-shaped positioning piece 18 is integrally formed by bending the outer circumferential edge of the four parts linearly upward. Circular drainage holes 25 are formed in the lower cover 14 in the outer part of the positioning piece 18, that is, in the part of the lower cover 14 where the light from the lamp 1 is shaded by the positioning piece 18. The stabilizer cover 11 can be easily made by drawing with a spatula, and the flange 17 can also be easily bent linearly. As shown in FIG. 4b, the upper part of the positioning piece 18 of the collar 17 formed in this way has a so-called rounded semicircular chevron shape (the X part in FIG. 4b). As shown in FIG. 4a, the positioning part 3b formed at the bottom of the glove 3 with a diameter smaller than that of the glove 3 serves as a guide when fitting into the inside of the positioning piece 18, so that the glove 3 is not damaged and the edge part It's something that can't be helped. The light from the lamp 1 hits the positioning piece 18, and the positioning piece 18 shields the light that is secondarily reflected so that it does not leak. Further, the water drain hole 25 is used to drain the water that has entered. Note that the positioning piece 18 is attached to the flange 17.
Since there are four locations on the holder, it can be attached to either square or round gloves.

When attaching the main body 2 to the lower cover 14, the locking holes 9a and 9b are arranged diagonally on the lower cover 14, and the main body 2 is fixed to the lower cover 14 with the screws 16. Ru. At this time, the positioning pieces 18 of the stabilizer cover 11 of the instrument body 2 correspond to each side of the lower cover 14, and the positioning parts 3b of the lower end of the glove 3 are provided inside the positioning pieces 18.
