摘要

Electric lamp, particularly for vehicle headlamps, provided with a light source (1), a coupling unit (2) and a member (4) for supporting the light source in the coupling unit; said coupling unit (2) comprising a cap shell (22) provided with an adjusting disc (21) and with a contact holder (23) with contact elements (24); said adjusting disc (21) having positioning profils (21a), said cap shell (22) being connected to said contact holder (23) by inwardly bent fixing means at its end more distant from the light source (1); and the current lead-in wires of the light source being fixed to the contact elements (24) in a way to conduct electric current. The coupling unit (2) is provided with a tubular insert (25) located along the inner side (22b) of the cap shell (22) and extending beyond the flange (22a) thereof closer to the light source (1); the edge (25d) of the insert (25) more distant from the light source (1) having a fixing portion (3) embedded in the material of the contact holder (23); and the supporting member (4) of the light source (1) is mounted on the free end (25a) of the insert (25). <IMAGE>
