A mounting arrangement for mount- ing a lamp envelope (14) to a lamp base (12) for an electrodeless fluorescent dis- charge lamp (10) includes a bulb mount- ing clip (36) having a center support por- tion and a plurality of arms (44) extending therefrom. Each of the plurality of arms (44) is formed having at least two curved portions one of which contacts a ridge por- tion (12a) formed on the lamp base to se- cure the bulb mounting clip (36) to the lamp base (12). The second curved portion (42) of each of the plurality of arms (44) contacts an indention formed in the region of the lamp envelope (14) which fits within the lamp base (12). The contacting rela- tions between the lamp base (12) and lamp envelope (14) achieved by use of the bulb mounting clip (36) are effective to prevent rotational movement of the lamp envelope (14) relative to the lamp base (12). The plurality of arms (44) are in contacting re- lation to the lamp envelope (14) such that, if excessive force is exerted on the lamp envelope (14), the lamp envelope (14) will break first within the lamp base (12) rather than on the outer envelope area.

Ensemble de fixation destiné à assurer la fixation d'une enveloppe (14) sur le culot (12) d'une lampe à décharge (10) fluorescente sans électrode. L'ensemble de fixation comporte une attache de fixation d'ampoule (36) présentant un support central ainsi qu'une pluralité de bras (44). Chacun des bras (44) est équipé d'au moins deux parties cintrées, dont l'une s'appuie contre le col (12a) formée sur le culot de lampe, assurant ainsi la fixation de l'attache (36) audit culot (12). La deuxième partie cintrée (42) de chacun des bras (44) vient en contact avec un renfoncement formé au niveau de l'enveloppe de lampe (14) qui s'adapte dans le culot de lampe (12). Le contact intime entre le culot (12) et l'enveloppe (14) établi grâce à l'attache de fixation d'ampoule (36) permet d'empêcher le mouvement de rotation de l'enveloppe (14) par rapport au culot (12). Le contact entre la pluralité de bras (44) et l'enveloppe (14) est tel que, si l'on applique sur l'enveloppe (14) une force excessive, celle-ci se brise à l'intérieur du culot (12) plutôt qu'au niveau de sa région extérieure.
