Document Type and Number:

WIPO Patent Application WO/2007/097312

Kind Code:

A1

Abstract:

It is intended to make a fluorescent lamp compact by reducing its entire length and to shorten the portions other than the fluorescent lamp especially, thereby to make the design preferable and to enhance the illuminating effect. Provided is a fluorescent lamp (20) to be attached to a feeding side member (10), which is constituted of a hook ceiling including a pair of retaining holes and a pair of feeding side terminals arranged at positions to match the retaining holes. The fluorescent lamp (20) is provided with a fluorescent lamp body (21), an inverter built-in case (22) disposed on the root end side of the fluorescent lamp body (21), and a pair of terminals (23) disposed on the opposite side of the case to the fluorescent lamp. The paired terminals (23) are so bent at their leading ends that they may be retained on the feeding side member (10) and electrically connected with the feeding side terminals when they are individually inserted into the paired retaining holes of the feeding side member (10) and are displaced in the rotational direction on the center of the fluorescent lamp.
