Device for holding a source of LED light

摘要

A lamp holder for holding a source of LED light includes a lamp holding component that is sized and arranged to securely receive the source of LED light. Keyed openings, engageable with fasteners associated with the mounting surface, are used to releasably attached the lamp holding component to the mounting surface and to urge the source of LED light against the mounting surface once the lamp holding component is attached thereto. Electrical contacts carried by the lamp holding component, provided to engage corresponding electrical contacts of the source of LED light, are also arranged to urge the source of LED light against the mounting surface when the lamp holding component is attached to the mounting surface. The lamp holding component also includes resiliently mounted holding elements for releasably holding the source of LED light in an accessible location.

主权项

1. A lamp holder for holding a printed circuit board (PCB) having a source of LED light on a mounting surface, comprising:
a lamp holding component that is sized and arranged to receive and securely hold therewithin the PCB having the source of LED light when the lamp holding component is secured to the mounting surface, the lamp holding component having at least one electrical terminal having at least one electrical contact adapted to engage a corresponding electrical contact of the PCB having the source of LED light wherein the electrical terminal is disposed substantially below a surface of the lamp holding component and wherein the at least one electrical contact of the electrical terminal is resiliently coupled to the lamp holding component to solely provide all forces in a direction that is away from the surface of the lamp holding component for urging the PCB having the source of LED light against the mounting surface when the lamp holding component is attached to the mounting surface.
