LAMP ASSEMBLY

摘要

A lamp assembly (200, 200-1, 200-2) includes a reflector body (235) having an integral crimping portion (300) that extends inwardly over a channel (227) formed in the reflector body (235), a seal feature arranged within the channel (227), a cathode assembly (210, 210-1) having an edge feature extending into the channel (227), and a resilient member held in a state of compression between the crimping portion (300)and a first surface of the edge feature such that an opposing second surface of the edge member is held against the sealing feature thereby creating a hermetic seal between the cathode assembly (210, 210-1) and the reflector body (235) wherein the crimping portion (300) is configured to remain in contact with the resilient member if the hermetic seal becomes non-hermetic.
