Projection lighting unit with glass reflector capable of dual insertion

摘要

A projection lighting unit which enables dual insertion of the unit's glass reflector therein. The reflector, having a tungsten-halogen projection lamp sealed therein, can be inserted in a vertical manner (and therefore parallel to the plane of the unit's faceplate) or it can be inserted horizontally (or perpendicular to the planar faceplate). The means of grasping and retaining the reflector within the unit's lampholder assembly preferably comprises a steel wireform having two deflectable segments (or elements) which deflect outwardly when engaged by the reflector. Removal of the reflector is possible in similar but reverse fashion.
