Lamps

摘要

A battery-powered lamp has a box-like casing with a top and side walls for housing at least one battery. At least one of the side walls has a depression which provides a generally planar depressed portion having an opening therethrough. A light source is supported in the casing. A lens, through which light from the light source can be transmitted, lens has a peripheral rim which is a friction fit in the opening. On its peripheral rim it has a plurality of ratchet-like teeth mutually spaced around the lens periphery. They make snap fits with and locate behind the material of the side wall bounding the opening so as to resist lens removal. Outside the peripheral rim of the lens is a surrounding flange which limits the depth of insertion of the lens in its opening. The side wall bounding the opening has a plurality of spaced notches which register with the lens teeth to prevent rotation of the lens relative to the opening. The lens teeth are triangular in configuration and are integral with the lens rim. Two opposite side walls each has a depression in which an opening is disposed. The lens is a friction fit in each of the openings.
