Abstract
A portable lamp assembly (10) consisting of a lamp housing (12) that incorporates a quartz halogen lamp (50) and that features an articulated lamp-housing support (20). The support (20) consists of a U-shaped bracket (22) having a horizontal member (22A) and two side members (22B). The side members are swivelly attached to the lower section (12B) of the housing (12). To the bottom surface of the horizontal member (22A) is attached a clevis structure (26) to which is swivelly attached a first end (28A) of a clamp support link (28). The second end (28B) of the support link is rigidly attached to a first handle (30A) of a spring-loaded clamp (30). The clamp (30) functions as a third leg that when positioned vertically and used in combination with a pair of legs (24) that extend from the structure (20), allows the assembly (10) to be stably placed upon a horizontal surface. The use of the clamp support link (30A) also allows the clamp (30) to be positioned within an arcuate plane and attached to various lamp attachment structures.
