LED socket assembly

摘要

A socket assembly (14) includes a light emitting diode (LED) package (16) having an LED printed circuit board (PCB) (22) with an LED (24) mounted thereto. The socket assembly (14) also includes a clamp (18) for holding the LED package (16) to a support structure (12). The clamp (18) includes a base (34) that is configured to be mounted to the support structure (12) such that the base (34) engages the support structure (12). The clamp (18) also includes a spring finger (36) that extends from the base (34) such that the base (34) and the spring finger (36) define a unitary body (32) of the clamp (18). The spring finger (36) is configured to engage the LED PCB (22) of the LED package (16) and apply a clamping force to the LED PCB (22) that acts in a direction toward the support structure (12).
