Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0800033A1] The lighting device includes the headlamp or indicating lamp (6) which is fitted into a lampholder (4) installed in an aperture (3) in the plane wall of the housing (2). The rigid hook (14) on the inside of the housing engages with a paraxial slotted tab (16) on the reflector (10). The tab is flexible in a radial direction towards the interior of the reflector. The diameter (M) of the lampholder at the level of the hook and slot is such that the tab can be flexed inwards sufficiently to slide over the curved surface of the hook, which may be flexible in the opposite direction.
