Abstract

The invention relates to a lamp ring for a lamp, in particular an indicator lamp, which comprises a recess for coding and an additional recess for positioning the lamp ring in a base mounting machine. According to the invention, the second recess has an inner wall with a projection. The invention also relates to a lamp comprising a lamp ring of this type and to a base mounting machine for assembling a lamp of this type.

Claims (6)

1. A base mounting machine for producing a lamp, in particular for producing a low-volt halogen indicator lamp, with a lamp ring having a cutout for inserting a shell, and with fixing lugs for fixing the lamp ring to the shell, the lamp ring having a first recess on the circumferential side for coding the lamp, and a second recess, diametrically opposed to the first recess, for positioning the lamp ring in the base mounting machine, the second recess having an inner wall with at least one projection, the base mounting machine comprising a first and a second accommodating element for engaging in the first and the second recess of the lamp ring, the second accommodating element having a profiled top region, which is matched to the second recess.

2. A base mounting machine for producing a lamp, in particular for producing a low-volt halogen indicator lamp, with a lamp ring having a cutout for inserting a shell, and with fixing lugs for fixing the lamp ring to the shell, the lamp ring having a first recess on the circumferential side for coding the lamp, and a second recess, diametrically opposed to the first recess, for positioning the lamp ring in the base mounting machine, the second recess having an inner wall with at least one projection, the projection being set back via a side face of the inner wall from an outer circumferential section of the lamp ring, the base mounting machine comprising a first and a second accommodating element for engaging in the first and the second recess of the lamp ring, the second accommodating element having a profiled top region, which is matched to the second recess.

3. A base mounting machine for producing a lamp, in particular for producing a low-volt halogen indicator lamp, with a lamp ring having a cutout for inserting a shell, and with fixing lugs for fixing the lamp ring to the shell, the lamp ring having a first recess on the circumferential side for coding the lamp, and a second recess, diametrically opposed to the first recess, for positioning the lamp ring in the base mounting machine, the second recess having an inner wall with at least one projection, the projection being set back via a side face of the inner wall from an outer circumferential section of the lamp ring, the lamp ring further having a second projection, the base mounting machine comprising a first and a second accommodating element for engaging in the first and the second recess of the lamp ring, the second accommodating element having a profiled top region, which is matched to the second recess.

4. A base mounting machine for producing a lamp, in particular for producing a low-volt halogen indicator lamp, with a lamp ring having a cutout for inserting a shell, and with fixing lugs for fixing the lamp ring to the shell, the lamp ring having a first recess on the circumferential side for coding the lamp, and a second recess, diametrically opposed to the first recess, for positioning the lamp ring in the base mounting machine, the second recess having an inner wall with at least one projection, the projection being set back via a side face of the inner wall from an outer circumferential section of the lamp ring, the lamp ring further having a second projection, the projections being arranged opposite one another and being spaced apart from one another via a bottom face, the base mounting machine comprising a first and a second accommodating element for engaging in the first and the second recess of the lamp ring, the second accommodating element having a profiled top region, which is matched to the second recess.

5. A base mounting machine for producing a lamp, in particular for producing a low-volt halogen indicator lamp, with a lamp ring having a cutout for inserting a shell, and with fixing lugs for fixing the lamp ring to the shell, the lamp ring having a first recess on the circumferential side for coding the lamp, and a second recess, diametrically opposed to the first recess, for positioning the lamp ring in the base mounting machine, the second recess having an inner wall with at least one projection, the projection being set back via a side face of the inner wall from an outer circumferential section of the lamp ring, the lamp ring further having a second projection, the projections being arranged opposite one another and being spaced apart from one another via a bottom face, the first projection having a visible face, which lies in one plane with a visible face of the second projection, and the projections having opposite parallel opposing faces, the base mounting machine comprising a first and a second accommodating element for engaging in the first and the second recess of the lamp ring, the second accommodating element having a profiled top region, which is matched to the second recess.

6. A base mounting machine for producing a lamp, in particular for producing a low-volt halogen indicator lamp, with a lamp ring having a cutout for inserting a shell, and with fixing lugs for fixing the lamp ring to the shell, the lamp ring having a first recess on the circumferential side for coding the lamp, and a second recess, diametrically opposed to the first recess, for positioning the lamp ring in the base mounting machine, the second recess having an inner wall with at least one projection, the projection being set back via a side face of the inner wall from an outer circumferential section of the lamp ring, the lamp ring further having a second projection, the projections being arranged opposite one another and being spaced apart from one another via a bottom face, the first projection having a visible face, which lies in one plane with a visible face of the second projection and the projections having opposite parallel opposing faces, the side faces and the bottom face lying on an imaginary arc with a constant radius, the base mounting machine comprising a first and a second accommodating element for engaging in the first and the second recess of the lamp ring, the second accommodating element having a profiled top region, which is matched to the second recess.
