Lamp with formed, cemented clip to secure base to lamp

摘要

A lamp has an electrically insulating, light-transmitting, preferably lead-free envelope with a base end and contains a light source. At least two electrical lead-ins are connected to the light source and exit the envelope. A base is affixed to the base end, the base having first and second electrically conductive portions separated by an electrically insulating portion. One of the electrical lead-ins is electrically connected to the first electrically conductive portion and another of the electrically conductive lead-ins is electrically connected to the second electrically conductive portion. The base is non-rotationally mounted to the base end of the lamp by a locking clip affixed to the first electrically conductive portion by mechanical means and affixed to the base by chemical means.
