Abstract
Lamp hinge assembly for connecting a lamp pole part (10) to a lamp head part (16) so that they can pivot with respect to each other, comprising a stop screw permanently attached to one of the pivoting parts, a stop (28) permanently attached to the other pivoting part to limit the pivot angle between the lamp pole part (10) and the lamp head part (16), a stop disk, which rotates with the pivoting motion of the parts, inserted between the stop screw (14) and the stop (28), said stop disk (20) being provided with two radially projecting lobes (22, 24), which are separated from each other by a predetermined angle, and each of which comes to rest against one side of the stop (28), and in that, approximately midway between the lobes (22, 24), the disk has a stop tab (26), against either side of which the stop screw (14) can come to rest, depending on the position into which the parts (10, 16) have been pivoted.
