Abstract: A roller with replaceable edge reinforcements is provided. A plurality of removable edge reinforcements are disposed radially along the peripheral edge of the end face of the roller. The reinforcements are slidably connected to the end face of the roller, either directly or indirectly, using male and female interlocking members, preferably in a U-shaped dovetail. The edge reinforcements are constructed from a suitably hard material and accept wear in place of the peripheral edge of the roller itself. In some embodiments, a pin and dimple arrangement is provided to assist the sliding engagement of the male and female members. A tool recess may also be provided to assist with removing the edge reinforcements.

Abstract: The present invention is a lamp system for use in a light string system comprising a light assembly and a socket assembly. The light assembly comprises a light source, a base in communication with the light source, and a bypass activating system. The socket assembly comprises a socket adapted to receive the light assembly and a bypass mechanism having a first position and a second position. The bypass activating system is adapted to move the bypass mechanism between the first and second positions.
