Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1403905A2] A spring clip (10) has a base (12) in a first plane and has an aperture (14) centrally located therein. U-shaped projections (16) and (18) are provided on the base (12) and are formed from first and second upstanding walls (20) and (22) and third and fourth walls (24) and (26), at each end of the base (12). A first lip (28) extends orthogonally between the first wall and second wall in a second plane and a second lip (29) extends orthogonally between the third wall and fourth wall, also in the second plane. The second plane is substantially parallel to the first plane but spaced therefrom. Extensions (30) and (32) are formed with the first wall and the third wall and project away from them. The extension are in substantially the same plane as base (12) and at least one flag (34) can be formed with at least one of the extensions. The flags (34) project away from the extensions (32) in a plane transverse to the first and second planes and allow the clips to be attached to a frame

[origin: EP1403905A2] The clip (10) has a base (12) in first plane with a centrally located aperture (14). U-shaped projections (16, 18) are situated at each end of the base, and comprise first and second upstanding walls (20, 22), and third and fourth walls (24, 26) respectively. First lip (28) extends orthogonally between first and second walls in second plane. One extension (30) is formed first or third wall projecting away. Second lip (29) extends between second and third walls in second plane, parallel to first plane. An independent claim is also included for an assembly for a lamp.
