Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To dispense with an exclusive fixture for supporting wiring of an illuminating lamp by supporting the lead wires of a fluorescent lamp by a wiring supporter disposed integrally with an illuminating lamp holder. SOLUTION: In mounting a fluorescent lamp A on an illuminating lamp holder, the cylindrical portion of the fluorescent lamp A is pressed in between the tips of curved pieces 1a of a holder 1, so that the curved pieces 1a are enlarged by their own elastic deformation. When the fluorescent lamp A is completely inserted into the holder 1, it can be supported by the curved pieces 1a which are elastically restored. Furthermore, lead wires B of the fluorescent lamp A are supported by a wiring supporter 4 of the illuminating lamp holder, to be thus fixed without using an exclusive fixture. In this case, since the wiring supporter 4 can be elastically deformed, the lead wires B are pressed in through clearances at the tips, to be then housed inside of the wiring supporter 4.
