Abstract

A rotating-telescoping base structure for lamps or light bulbs is described. The structure may be rotated up to 320.degree. and may be telescoped outwardly from the base structure. This enables use in applications where a longer neck dimension is needed or alignment of the fixture without unscrewing it from a socket is to be carried out.
