Abstract

An electric light bulb socket positioner for lamp assemblies is provided. The lamp assembly consists of an electric light bulb sleeve, an electric light bulb stem and an electric light bulb. The light bulb stem, at the lower end of the electric light bulb socket, is provided with a pair of keyway slots formed through opposing wall portions. The slotted openings allow greater dimensional variability in the mating light bulb sleeve.
