    Abstract: A plastic base assembly for a ''''circline'''' fluorescent lamp is molded in two segments that are secured in enclosing relationship with the sealed ends of the envelope solely by means of a snapinterlock effected between a pair of depending lugs on one of the segments and a pair of mating recesses in the other segment. The base segment having the locking lugs is molded in such a way that the side walls of the lugs define a locking angle that is smaller than the mold release angle and thus permits the base segment to be readily stripped from the molding die without damaging or otherwise impairing the ability of the lugs to effect a strong mechanical interlock with the other base segment. Rotation of the base relative to the lamp envelope is prevented by a nodal projection on the enclosed end of the envelope that is located between stop means molded into the inner surface of one of the base segments. Alternatively, the ends of the lamp envelope can be provided with metal end caps one of which has a tang that is disposed between the stop means defined by the base structure.

    Abstract translation: 用于“中线”荧光灯的塑料基座组件被模制成两个部分,其仅通过在一个片段上的一对悬垂凸耳之间实现的卡扣互锁而与封套的密封端部保持封闭关系,并且 在另一段中的一对配合凹槽。 具有锁定凸耳的基部段被模制成使得凸耳的侧壁限定小于脱模角度的锁定角度,并且因此允许基部部分容易地从成型模具剥离而不损坏或以其他方式 损害凸耳与另一个基座段进行强力机械互锁的能力。 底座相对于灯壳的旋转通过位于封装在其中一个基座的内表面的止动件之间的外壳的封闭端上的节点突起来防止。 或者,灯壳的端部可以设置有金属端盖,其中一个具有设置在由基部结构限定的止动装置之间的柄脚。
