Abstract
A reflector lamp comprising a reflector and a light socket with light, in which the light socket can be rigidly connected to a receptacle located on the back of the reflector, has at least one connecting bracket on an outside of the socket that extends transversely to a longitudinal axis of the light socket and is guided longitudinally in a groove of the receptacle and can be positively connected by plastic deformation fit to the receptacle. A process for rigidly connecting the light socket and light to the receptacle involves adjusting the light socket and light in the reflector and positively connecting the light socket to the receptacle with laterally extending connecting brackets on the light socket that are guided in grooves in the receptacle for longitudinal displacement therealong.
