ABSTRACT:
To provide for reliable interconnection of a cover (4) with the body (1) of socket and socket housing for an electric lamp which, also, is formed with a receptacle or socket to receive the base of the lamp, preferably a compact fluorescent lamp, a rotary interengaging screw-type connection is provided between the cover and the body. To prevent inadvertent removal, an interengaging snap connection (6, 8) is formed on the cover (4) and on the body, respectively. The snap connection (6, 8) engages upon assembly of the cover (4) with the body (1). To remove the cover (4), a tool such as a screwdriver is engaged through a small slit (16) in the body, to deflect a resilient flap formed by the cover element. A positioning rib (14) is provided within the body to secure the resilient flap in deflected position, even after removal of the tool, to permit easy disassembly of the cover (4) from the body (1) without requiring continued deflection pressure on the resilient flap.
