Abstract: The specification discloses a light fixture globe connector in which a resilient clip is used to connect and support the globe. The connector is especially adapted for use with an overhead fan light fixture since it resists accidental release of the globe due to vibration. An extending piece carries the light socket, the clip, and a slidably mounted cup which encompasses and restrains the clip. The clip has a plurality of resilient arms terminating in recurved portions which are held in engagement with the globe by the cup. The resilient, recurved arm portions are biased against the containing cup by the globe, preferably engaging a lip on the cup's rim, preventing the cup from sliding on the extending piece.
