Abstract

The present invention relates to a socket for electrically connecting a lamp and simultaneously supporting the lamp. In particular, an elastic body supporting the lamp is integrally formed in the socket to reduce the number of parts and the assembly process, thereby improving productivity and reducing manufacturing costs. It relates to a socket in which the lamp fixing elastic body is integrated.

Conventionally, since the elastic body mounted in the coupling groove of the socket is composed of a separate body from the socket, the production process of the socket is increased due to the manufacture of the elastic piece separately during manufacture and the insertion of the elastic piece separately into the coupling groove. There is a disadvantage that falling, and the manufacturing price of the product is increased.

Therefore, in order to solve the disadvantages of the conventional socket, the present invention incorporates an elastic body having a locking protrusion supporting the locking jaw at both ends of the coupling groove corresponding to the locking jaw of the lamp body toward the opening direction at both ends. Formed.

Since the elastic body elastically supporting the lamp body is integrally formed with the socket as described above, the number of parts of the socket is reduced, the structure is simplified, and the assembly process is reduced, resulting in higher productivity as well as a reduction in manufacturing cost.

Description

A socket with an elastic body for fixing a lamp}

The present invention relates to a socket for electrically connecting a lamp and simultaneously supporting the lamp. In particular, an elastic body supporting the lamp is integrally formed in the socket to reduce the number of parts and the assembly process, thereby improving productivity and reducing manufacturing costs. It relates to a socket in which the lamp fixing elastic body is integrated.

In general, a fluorescent lamp has a rod-shaped structure having connection terminals on both sides thereof, and the socket for coupling and supporting the two sockets is composed of two bodies so as to correspond to both terminals. It is a simple structure consisting of a spring terminal structure to keep the connected state while electrically connecting the.

Fluorescent lamps having such a structure have disadvantages in that mounting and disassembly of fluorescent lamps are not easy because connection terminals are formed at both sides, and the length of the fluorescent lamps is restricted in the place of installation.

In order to alleviate this disadvantage, there is a fluorescent lamp having a structure in which only one connection terminal is formed by bending a fluorescent lamp, that is, a fluorescent glass filled with a fluorescent material, to facilitate the removal and detachment as in a general lamp.

In accordance with the structure of such a fluorescent lamp, the socket is also provided in a corresponding structure, the structure of which is shown in FIG.

The conventional socket 14 shown has a terminal insertion hole 16 into which a lamp terminal 12 is inserted at both sides and a connection terminal 19 therein, and a coupling groove into which the lamp body 11 is inserted therebetween. (15) is formed. The coupling groove 15 may be formed in plural and the lamp 10 may be installed in multiple numbers.

In addition, when the body 11 of the lamp is inserted in the coupling groove 15 is provided with a support means for maintaining the inserted state.

The support means forms a locking jaw 13 on both sides of the lamp body 11, the inner side of the engaging groove 15 is bent in a 'U' shape of the metal piece having elastic force, and both ends are bent inward to protrude the end When the lamp body 11 is inserted into the lamp body 11, the lamp body 11 is supported by the socket 14 by elastically supporting the rear end of the locking jaw 13 while returning after passing through the locking jaw 13. A plurality of elastic bodies 17 are provided, respectively, so as to prevent them from coming off from each other.

However, since the elastic body 17 mounted in the coupling groove 15 is composed of a socket 14 and a separate body, the elastic body 17 must be manufactured separately during manufacture, and then inserted into the coupling groove 15 to be assembled. Since the process to be accompanied by the socket 14 manufacturing process is increased, the productivity of the product is lowered, there is a disadvantage that the manufacturing cost of the product is increased.

In addition, when the lamp body 11 coupled to the coupling groove 15 is separated, a phenomenon occurs in which the elastic body 17 is separated together to the outside, which causes troublesome reassembly.

The present invention has been devised to solve the conventional disadvantages, the purpose is to form an elastic piece to support the lamp body integrally to reduce the number of parts, reduce the manufacturing and assembly process, thereby improving productivity and manufacturing costs It is to provide a socket in which the lamp fixing elastic body is integrated.

Means of the present invention for achieving the above object,

In the socket having a coupling groove for mounting and detaching the lamp body having a locking jaw on both sides, the connection terminal is connected to the connection terminal of the lamp on both sides of the coupling groove,

It is achieved by integrally formed with an elastic body provided with a locking projection for supporting the locking jaw at the end of the engaging body in the direction of the opening to the both sides of the inner bottom of the coupling groove of the socket corresponding to the locking jaw of the lamp body.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

2 is a perspective view of a socket according to the present invention, Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view showing the structure of the socket according to the present invention.

As shown, the lamp 10 is provided with a lamp body 11 at the bottom. The lamp body 11 has a structure that can be coupled to the socket 20, the engaging jaw 13 is formed on both sides, the connecting terminal 12 is provided on both sides of the end.

The socket 20 has a rectangular coupling groove 21 into which the lamp body 11 is inserted, and a terminal insertion hole 22 to which the terminals 12 of the lamp 10 are coupled to both sides of the coupling groove 21. Is formed, and a connection terminal 23 corresponding to the terminal 12 of the lamp 10 is provided in the terminal insertion hole 22.

The coupling groove 21 can be installed in multiple lamps 10 by increasing the number of the plurality, usually the socket 20 having a plurality of coupling grooves 21 is mainly used.

In the coupling groove 21 of the socket 20, elastic bodies 24a and 24b for elastically supporting the lamp body 11 are installed.

The elastic bodies 24a and 24b have a thin plate-like structure, which are formed at both sides of the inner bottom of the coupling groove 21 in the opening direction, and support the rear side of the latching jaw 13 when the lamp body 11 is inserted inside the end thereof. The locking projections 25 are formed to prevent the lamp body 11 from being separated. These elastic bodies 24a and 24b are integrally molded in the manufacture of the socket 20. At this time, the locking protrusion 25 has a curved surface so that the lamp body 11 can be easily removed from the socket 20.

The socket 20 of this structure is connected to the male and female connection terminals 12 and 23 of both sides when the lamp body 11 correspondingly inserted into the coupling groove 21 is electrically connected, and both sides of the lamp body 11 Is inserted while opening the elastic body 24a, 24b, and the locking jaw 13 is narrowed by its elastic force at the moment when the locking jaw 13 passes through the locking protrusion 25 of the elastic body 24a, 24b, and supports both sides of the lamp body 11. do.

By this operation, the lamp body 11 remains stably coupled without flow, and since the locking protrusion 25 supports the rear side of the locking jaw 13, the lamp body 11 is not applied unless a large force is applied. Is prevented from being separated from the socket 20.

On the other hand, when the lamp body 11 is removed when the lamp 10 is forcibly pulled out of the socket 20 by applying a force, the elastic bodies 24a and 24b are opened again while the lamp body 11 is simply pulled out.

As described above, since the socket of the present invention is integrally molded with an elastic body supporting the lamp body, the number of parts of the socket is reduced, the structure is simplified, and the assembly process is reduced, resulting in higher productivity as well as manufacturing cost. There is a saving effect.
