The invention includes an apparatus for curing resin in glass. The lamp system
includes a light bulb, where the light bulb has a substantially annular shape configured
to accommodate a resin injection system. The apparatus also includes a bulb housing
having a substantially annular shape that substantially corresponds to the shape
of the light bulb to facilitate accommodation of the light bulb within the bulb
housing. The bulb housing has a hole, proximately at a center of the substantially
annular shape of the bulb housing, configured to accommodate the resin injection
system. As a result, the light bulb and the bulb housing surrounding the resin
injection system in a relatively tight diameter, thereby facilitating uniform curing
of the resin.
