发明名称 Automotive lamp socket
摘要 A lamp assembly for use with a vehicle's electrical system, the electrical system including a plurality of terminals each having a wire insulating portion and an end connector portion. A main elastomeric housing includes a socket for receiving a bulb. A front seal encircles an exterior surface of the socket and seals around a periphery of the socket. A first plurality of sealing ridges extend along an open facing side of the main housing, opposite the bulb socket, and within which are received the wire insulating portions of the terminals and the end connector portions of each terminal conmmunicating with the bulb socket upon the terminals being located within the main housing. A back cap matingly aligns over an open facing side of the main housing and includes an opposingly facing side with a second plurality of sealing ridges which align with the first plurality of sealing ridges and to sandwich therebetween the wire insulating portions of the terminals. An inlet seal is seatingly received between aligning recesses defined between the opposingly facing sides of the main housing and the back cap and is located proximate the first and second pluralities of sealing ridges. Wire receiving apertures extend through the seal and into which are inserted the wire insulating portions of the terminals. An ultrasonic welding operation secures the back cap to the main elastomeric housing in a seal-tight manner.
