  • Patent number: 6361185
    Abstract: A safety structure to prevent a socket from being over-heated in a lamp string, which comprises a separate lamp string made of a pre-determined number of sockets connected in series. The power-supply wire of the lamp string is connected in series with an additional socket to be plugged with a protective bulb. Two copper wires mounted in the glass tube of the protective bulb are fixed in place by means of a positioning bead. The tail ends of the two copper wires are connected with a fuse having a pre-determined power dissipation. In case of the fuse in the protective bulb being over-loaded, the fuse will be burned out automatically so as to prevent the sockets from being over heated to cause a hazard.
