  • Patent number: 4683523
    Abstract: An elongate metal cylindrical body has a plurality of internal annular grooves for adjustable positioning of a lamp socket. A cylindrical metal sleeve screws over the forward end of the metal body. A quartz-halogen lamp extends through the forward end of the sleeve and tube and its contacts are received in corresponding receptacles in the socket. A cylindrical heat sink is screwed inside the metal sleeve and surrounds the base of the lamp, closely spaced therefrom. A relatively small protective glass envelope fits over the lamp and heat sink. The tapered rearward end of the glass envelope is held within a cavity in the forward end of the metal sleeve by a special radial seal, including an O-ring and a spiral retaining ring. The special seal also minimizes cracking of the envelope while providing a barrier to the entry of water under high pressure. A readily removable reflector assembly fits over the forward ends of the cylindrical metal body and sleeve and includes a perforated dome-shape protective cover.
