ABSTRACT:
A bulb socket consisting of an inner piece and a hollow outer piece guidingly receiving the inner piece. The inner piece has a pair of channels for accommodating an electrical connecting wire, a web physically separating the pair of channels and a pair of slits each extending in a respective channel for anchoring a contact blade associated with the electrical connecting wire. The hollow outer piece has a pair of curved recesses complementary in shape to the pair of channels. After the inner and outer pieces are brought together, the pair of channels and the pair of curved recesses form a respective hole formation which securely retain the electrical connecting wires in position, thereby preventing undesired bending of the wires which might lead to short circuit and electrical hazard. The channels and the curved recesses in their modified form are able to accommodate two electrical connecting wires and associated contact blades. The outer piece may optionally be provided with extensions of different length to prevent the wires from undesired repetitive bending at same point. Ridges and annular protrusion may be suitably formed on the outer piece and a groove may be suitably formed on the inner piece to facilitate a firm locking between the inner and outer pieces.
