ABSTRACT:
A combination socket assembly and D.C. lamp apparatus. The lamp apparatus has first and second electric pin conductors protruding therefrom. The first pin conductor has a transverse configuration distinct from a transverse configuration of the second pin conductor. The socket assembly comprises a frame, a socket member, and a pair of metal contact clips. The socket element is mounted to the frame and receives the first and the second pin conductors of the lamp apparatus. The socket element contains first and second receptacles. The first receptacle is configured and dimensioned to mate with the first pin conductor and to prevent mating with the second pin conductor. The second receptacle is configured and dimensioned to mate with the second conductor. The metal contact clips are contained within the first and the second receptacles of the socket element. The metal contact clips are used to make electrical contact with the first and the second pin conductors of the lamp apparatus, whereby electrical current from an external power supply can be transmitted through the socket element to the lamp apparatus. The lamp apparatus includes a reflector assembly having a convex exterior surface. The convex exterior surface contains an indicia, covering a portion thereof for guiding a person in correctly orienting the lamp apparatus relative to the socket assembly.
