ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a modified line lamp and, more particularly, to a modified line lamp that can be supported by a simple locking member.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
A line lamp in prior art connects serially a plurality of halogen lamps on a main electric line that is used to conduct electricity. There is no robust protection for the lamp socket and the lamp of the halogen lamp. The halogen lamp will shed if it can not be locked on the lamp socket. To improve this situation, a retaining frame is installed to enhance the lamp socket such that the main electric line connects with the lamp socket via an adapting electric line, and a protection lid is installed on a retaining seat to protect the lamp. But it is very inconvenient to replace the lamp for this structure.
SUMMARY AND OBJECTS OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The object of the present invention is to provide a modified line lamp. The lamp obtains a support force, and a fixing seat of the lamp socket can be rotated to adjust the projection direction such that the replacement of the lamp is easier and more convenient.
The modified line lamp of the present invention comprises a lamp and a lamp socket. The lamp socket is connected to a fixing seat. A retaining frame is connected with two sides of the fixing seat. Two sides of the retaining frame are connected to a main electric line. A hole is disposed at each of the two sides of the retaining frame not connected with a main electric line. The fixing seat extends to form two bent arms from a tubular seat. A joining seat installed at the outer side of the middle section of the bent arm is connected pivotally to the hole to let a joining element be joined with the joining seat such that the fixing seat can swing. A locking member is installed at the end of the bent arm of the fixing seat to be locked with the periphery of the lamp. The main electric line uses a locking element of a line gripper to join a bearing seat of the retaining frame. A guide bar is lagged in the locking element. The inner end of the guide bar is connected to an electric line coming from the lamp socket. The outer end of the guide bar forms a spherical seat having a groove and a screw hole. A locking screw having an acute end is locked in the spherical seat to penetrate the main electric line that traverses the groove of the spherical seat.
The various objects and advantages of the present invention will be more readily understood from the following detailed description when read in conjunction with the appended drawings, in which:
