Abstract: A socket for a light bulb having a socket housing to provide wired connection and an interior spring-clamp socket manufactured of a resilient material and having a notched separation extending longitudinally therethrough. The notch permits the deformation of the spring-clamp socket and expands when a light bulb is inserted and grasps it once therein. Removal of the bulb simply requires pulling the bulb straight out. Additionally the present invention is adaptable and replaceable for most existing lighting fixtures or applications.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrical socket for a standard light bulb. The socket is configured to allow the bulb to be pushed into and pulled from the socket. The sockets are provided with spring members where the spring members have ridges thereon to engage the threaded end of the light bulb. The spring members are unevenly spaced about the circumference of the socket and the spring members are provided with an upper end that can move vertically away from the bottom of the socket. When a bulb is pushed into the socket, the force of the bulb on ridges on the spring members cause the spring members to elongate and allow the bulb to slide into the socket. When the bulb is pulled from the socket the spring members elongate allowing the bulb to slide from the socket.

Abstract: An electric socket for a standard light bulb has an inner housing movable within an outer housing such that the light bulb threaded base is directly insertable and removable from the inner housing without rotation. The light bulb is held within the inner housing by arcuate contact members that are squeezed against the light bulb threaded base as the threaded base is inserted.
