Title: Support Ring for Mounting of a Soft Box on a Light Source 
Abstract:

A support ring is for mounting of a soft box on a light source. The support ring includes a connector for attachment of the support ring to the light source, and at least one cavity configured to receive support pins of the soft box. The cavity further includes a first and a second support element arranged to counteract a torque from the support pins, when the support pins are in an inserted position in the cavity. At least one entry element on a radial outside of the cavity is arranged to counteract a force required to bend the support pin to an angle where the support pin can be inserted into the cavity.
