ABSTRACT:
A socket has a bulb insertion cavity into which a sealed section of a baseless lamp is inserted. The socket is mounted to a mounting base by being inserted through an insertion hole thereof and then turned in a predetermined direction. The socket has a pair of contact members disposed in the insertion cavity. Each contact member has a power supply terminal, and a contact protuberance is formed on the free end of the terminal. The protuberance has a flat top surface being in contact with a printed wiring on the mounting base, a first inclined side surface extending from the top surface toward the base end of the terminal, a second inclined side surface extending from the top surface in the turning direction of the socket, and third and fourth inclined side surfaces opposite to the first and second surfaces, respectively. The first and second surfaces are inclined more gently than the third and fourth surfaces.
