ABSTRACT:
A lamp holder includes a base and two electrical contacts for forming a connection with a bulb having an envelope around an electrical filament having two wires extending therefrom. Each wire forms a loop protruding from the envelope, the two loops being at opposed ends of the envelope. Each electrical contact of the lamp holder has a wire with a hook at its free end and formed to engage one of the two loops of the bulb, so that a shorter one of the wires engages the one of said two loops at the nearer end of the bulb and the other larger spring wire engages the other of said two loops at the far end of the bulb, in a manner that induces a spring tension in the wire. Thus, the bulb is held suspended between, and in electrical contact with, the two loops.
