LAMP SOCKET AND ILLUMINATION DEVICE WITH THE SAME

A lamp socket has a mover and a supporter. At an open position, the supporter supports the mover so that the mover does not prevent a lamp from being moved to or from a mounting position along a specified direction. The specified direction intersects with the projection direction of the lamp pins. When the lamp can be moved from the mounting position along the specified direction, the supporter supports the mover so that the contacts do not make contact with the lamp pins, respectively. At the close position, the supporter supports the mover so that the mover prevents the lamp from being moved from or to the mounting position along the specified direction. When a posture of the lamp is said posture, the supporter supports the mover so that the contacts make contact with the lamp pins, respectively.
