| Title: |
Lamp Assembly and Lamp For a Luminare |
| Abstract: |
A theatrical luminaire for entertainment and architectural applications
includes a lamp socket accessible from the exterior of the luminaire
housing. A lamp includes a base, a bulb on one side of the base and a
handle on the other side. The handle is grasped to insert the lamp into
the socket. When the base is mounted in the socket, the bulb extends
through the socket into the luminaire and the handle remains accessible at
the exterior of the luminaire. The lamp is mounted with a one-handed push
and turn motion, and contacts on wings of the base engage socket contacts
as the lamp is turned to its final position. The socket is mounted on a
support that is adjustable relative to the luminaire housing to preserve
the correct lamp positioning when the lamp is replaced.
