  • Patent number: 7186017
    Abstract: A backstop socket structure to prevent a lamp string from turning-off upon a bulb dropped unintentionally, which comprises a fuse-type bulb mounted in a socket of a lamp string and a plurality backstop sockets; each backstop socket is furnished with two contact copper plates, which are furnished with two spring reeds in close contact state normally; the bulb base has a rod stub under the center of the bulb base; after the bulb base is plugged in place, the rod stub would push the two spring reeds separated from each other; in case of a bulb base being dropped or missing, the two spring reeds will be in close contact state as a result of the resilient force thereof so as to keep the lamp string in lighting up state.

  • Patent number: 5775802
    Abstract: A clamp device for wires of ornamental lamp string, in which the sub-sockets in every lamp string are set at a regular distance from one another, and two power-supply wires are connected with a connecting member. One of the two power-supply wires is connected with the connecting member and with all sub-sockets in series, while the other power-supply wire is connected from the connecting member to the last sub-socket directly so as to form a complete electrical circuit. A plurality of lamp strings are connected with the main cable of the power-supply wires. The wires between two adjacent lamp strings are fastened in place with a clasp mounted on a sub-socket. A plurality of lamp strings are connected into a network to be mounted over a wall surface or the like, and such network can be set up and removed quickly and conveniently.
