Lampshade for an outdoor light, in particular a pole-mounted light

Abstract

A street light, outdoor light or the like is mounted on a tubular pole or similar vertical holder and has a lamp socket and a bulb. A lampshade to be detachably connected to the lamp socket includes a plastic transparent bulb cover for surrounding the bulb at a given level. The bulb cover has a sharply offset zone with a cross-sectional enlargement at the given level, an upper end with a domelike bulge and a lower edge with one component of a bayonet mount for connection to the lamp socket. A sheet-metal shade ring disposed inside the bulb cover at the given level is nondisplaceably fixed in axial direction in the enlargement. A lamp canopy disposed above the bulb outside the bulb cover has a central opening through which the domelike bulge protrudes and beyond which the domelike bulge extends. A funnel-shaped metal heat shield body is disposed inside the domelike bulge and spaced apart from the bulb cover.
