<p>A lamp assembly (10) is provided which includes a lamp (20) such as an arc tube sealed within a sleeve (12) which is attached to a pair of retainer members (14,16) which are coupled to a base component (18). The sleeve (12) includes a circumferential groove (36) and the retainer members (14,16) include curved detents (78,86). The retainer members (14,16) are attached to the sleeve (12) by causing the detents (78,86) to engage the surface of the groove (36) and mate therewith, the two retainer members (14,16) being welded together. Respective segments (70,74) of the retainer members (14,16) are tensioned relative to a mounting portion of the base component (18) and attached thereto. <IMAGE></p> |
