ABSTRACT:
A device for stabilizing/ejecting a lamp from a plug-in socket wherein the lamp is mountable in a frame. The device includes a spring member for stabilizing the lamp in the frame and an ejection member pivotally attached to the spring member. The ejection member includes an upper ejector, or cam formed therein for separating the socket from the lamp, an outwardly extending lower ejector for ejecting the lamp from the frame and a lever for sequentially actuating the upper ejector and the lower ejector in one stroke. The stroke moves the lever from a rest position in which the spring member is operative, through a transition position in which the upper ejector is operative to eject the socket from the lamp and to reinforce the spring member to stabilize the lamp during the socket separation. The lever moves from the transition position to a final position in which the lower ejector is operative to eject the lamp from the frame. The spring member includes two prongs spaced from each other to receive a portion of the lamp therebetween to align the lamp relative to the frame.
