ABSTRACT:
A floor lamp includes a base, an upstanding base column on the base, a housing fixedly supported atop the base column; a base electrical connector mounted on the housing and having recessed contacts that are oriented for receiving mating contacts engaging parallel to the column, electrical conductors extending within the base column for connecting the contacts to an external source. A lamp module of the floor lamp includes a module column, an illuminating fixture at one end of the module column, a module electrical connector mounted to the other end of the column and having the mating contacts projecting therefrom, the fixture being electrically connected between the mating contacts. A clamp nut rotatably retained on the lamp module supportively secures the lamp module on the base electrical connector by threadingly engaging a threaded shell of the base connector, thereby releasably clamping the module on the base column with the contacts in mating engagement. In one configuration, the lamp further includes a lamphead that is supported in a desired position and orientation relative to the housing on a curvable gooseneck that projects from the housing, the gooseneck being sufficiently long for holding a full loop thereof while supporting the lamphead, the lamphead also being powered from the electrical conductors.
