ABSTRACT:
A foldable flash holder comprised of three integrally molded plastic parts interconnected exclusively by snap fit. One of the parts is a contact retainer which includes an elongated receptacle well for receiving a multi-bulb flash array and a contact retaining bracket formation holding a plurality of U-shaped contacts uniformly spaced with one another, with one end of each contact cantilevered in position for resilient engagement with a contact blade portion of the flash array, while the opposite end of each contact is held in engagement with a flexible power cable. One embodiment of the flash holder includes an actuator movable in response to engagement by the flash array to actuate a mechanism in the associated camera which places the camera in an artificial illumination mode.
