<p>An electrical discharge lamp (1) contains a light rod (8)supported at its opposite ends by a terminal connection (9) and aretainer (35). The retainer (35) is a push fit inside a well (22)of triangular cross-section whose three corners respectivelyreceive three springy members (37, 38, 39) provided on theretainer to fix its angular position and thus the angular positionof a traverse wire (36) electrically connecting the end of the rod(8) remote from the connection (9) to the connection. Theconnection is provided with two concentrically arranged sleeves(14) 15) of which the outermost sleeve is externally screwthreaded and can be stiffly rotated without axial movement withrespect to the inner sleeve in order to allow the lamp envelope tobe turned to a desired angular position without interrupting theelectrical and mechanical connection between the lamp and a lampsocket into which the terminal connection is screwed.10 claims, 9 figures</p> |
