Compact low pressure discharge lamp having spring element to connect the supply leads of the lamp to the electric terminals of the mounting plate

摘要

The present invention relates to a compact low-pressure discharge lamp comprising a discharge vessel (14) with electrodes and supply leads (30), and a base (12) assembled from a cap (16), housing (18) and mounting plate (24) with a ballast arrangement. The mounting plate (24) with the ballast arrangement is installed in the interior of the base housing (30) and has terminals (26) for the electric connection of the supply leads (30) to the mounting plate (24). In this case, the supply leads (30) are pressed against the electric terminals (26) of the mounting plate (24) by means of a spring element (28).
