3. An electric lamp socket having an insulating body, a switch frame mount thereon and having an end upright and a pair of side uprights extending beyond said end upright, in combination with a boss on said body bearing against said end upright and lying between said extended side up rights, for the purpose described.
4. An electric lamp socket having a chambered insulating body, a switch frame having a base mounted on the bottom of said chamber, side uprights on said base and extending beyond the end of the latter, and a ledge inthe top of said chamber against Copies of this patent may be obtained for a boss on said five cents each, by addressing the beyond said end upright and a boss en gaged between said side uprights beyond said end upright.
6. An electric lamp socket having a chambered insulating body, a switch frame having a base and means engaging said base for securing the frame in the chamber of said insulating body, end and side uprights on said frame and means engaging said end and side uprights to brace the frame in said chamber.
7. An electric lamp socket having a cham= bered insulating body, a switch frame having a base and means engaging said base for securing the frame in the chamber of said insulating body, end and side uprights on said frame and means engaging said base and said end and side uprights to brace the frame in said chamber.
In testimony whereof I have signed my name to this specification, in the presence of two subscribing witnesses.
