Abstract
A securing assembly for an axially rotatable body or workpiece such as a fluorescent lamp provided with a pair of pins which extend axially outward from at least one end thereof and into a socket in a lampholder. The securing assembly includes a generally C-shaped resilient body having a pair of radially inward extending locking members. These locking members are configured to prevent undesired rotation and subsequent disengagement of the lamp from the socket, even under severe vibration conditions. A securing or fastening device secures the resilient body to the holder.
