Abstract: A mount (10) for a metal halide arc discharge lamp has a flare (20) including a barrel portion and a frame (32) comprises a clip (40) attached to the barrel portion (30). First and second side rods (50, 60) spaced 180° apart have distal ends (70) and proximal ends (80), with the distal ends being attached to the clip. First and second spaced apart straps (90, 100) connect the side rods intermediate the proximal ends and distal ends. An arc tube (110) is fixed between the first and second straps. The proximal ends diverge outwardly and engage the inner surface of a dome (14) to position one end of the mount. The barrel portion includes two sealed lead-in wires (120, 130). The arc tube includes an electrode (140, 150) in each end (140a, 150a). No electrical connection is made to the frame whereby the frame is electrically isolated.

Abstract: A decorative receptacle, such as a wastebasket, comprises a two-piece receptacle body formed of a tubular sidewall member and a base member releasably connected to the bottom of the tubular member, and a decorative cover removably disposed on the receptacle body and encircling the tubular sidewall member. The tubular and base members are each one-piece, molded structures. The base member has an array of upstanding pins on its upper surface which frictionally fit in corresponding openings of the tubular sidewall member to releasably connect the two members together to form the receptacle body. The decorative cover has a tubular configuration and fits slidably over the outer surface of the tubular sidewall member. The opposite ends of the decorative cover are sandwiched between flanges at the top and bottom of the receptacle body.
