Abstract

The dimmer comprises a box containing a rheostat, which controls the lift intensity in a domestic system, and two outlets. The outlets are situated at either side of the rheostat. Thus, power may be taken either from the outlet which communicates directly with the mains supply before the rheostat, for normal use or from the outlet connected to the mains, via the rheostat, for a variable power output. The device is used for energy conservation and allows for the reduction of lighting to by any desired amount, while allowing electrical appliances, running off the same mains socket, to operate at their normal voltages.

Description

DESCRIP?ON
INTERRUPTEUR-PRISE à RHEOSTAT.DESCRIP? ON
RHEOSTAT SWITCH.

Ce dispositif se rapporte au système électrique de l'éclairage domestique.This device relates to the electrical system of domestic lighting.

I1 s'agit du couplage d'un rhéostat mécanique et d'un interrupteur. It is the coupling of a mechanical rheostat and a switch.

Deux prises de courant sont également incluses, l'une avant, l'autre après le rhéostat, dans le sens efférent.Two sockets are also included, one before, the other after the rheostat, in the efferent direction.

L'interrupteur-prise à rhéostat permet le réglage direct et à tout moment de l'intensité de l'éclairage domestique. I1 remplace dans l'installation électrique l'interrupteur simple. Son utilisation augmente le confort par l'adaptation de l'éclat des lampes aux souhaits de l'utilisateur. I1 est aussi, par le fait qu'il permet le réglage en diminution, un facteur d'économie d'énergie électrique.The dimmer switch-socket allows direct adjustment of the intensity of the domestic lighting at any time. I1 replaces the simple switch in the electrical installation. Its use increases comfort by adapting the brightness of the lamps to the wishes of the user. I1 is also, by the fact that it allows the adjustment in decrease, a factor of economy of electrical energy.

La prise solidaire du rhéostat permet la desserte de lampadaires, lampes de bureau, ventilateurs, par exemple.The integral socket of the rheostat allows the service of floor lamps, desk lamps, fans, for example.

La prise en amont permet l'alimentation en courant normal à l'installation, indépendamment, de l'interrupteur-prise à rhéostat.The upstream socket allows normal current supply at installation, independently of the rheostat switch-socket.

Le dispositif se présente sous l'aspect d'un bottier d'une esthétique adaptable aux éxigences de l'architecture et de la décoration, ne laissant apparaître que le bouton ou curseur de réglage et les orifices des deux prises.The device is presented in the form of a bootmaker with an aesthetic adaptable to the requirements of architecture and decoration, leaving only the adjustment knob or slider and the orifices of the two sockets visible.

La réalisation industrielle du dispositif, en matière plastique pour le boitier et selon les normes de i'industrie électrique pour le rhéostat, les prises et les éléments de connection ne présente aucun problème pour l'homme de l'art. The industrial production of the device, in plastic material for the case and according to the standards of the electrical industry for the rheostat, the sockets and the connection elements does not present any problem for those skilled in the art.

REVENDICATIONS L'interrupteur-prise à rhéostat se compose d'un bottier contenant un rhéostat permettant le réglage de l'intensité de l'éclai- rage domestique, ainsi que deux prises: l'une en amont, l'autre en aval du rhéostat. Ce dispositif remplace l'interrupteur simple dans les circuits électriques des locaux d'habitation,The rheostat switch-socket is made up of a housing containing a rheostat for adjusting the intensity of domestic lighting, as well as two sockets: one upstream, the other downstream of the rheostat. This device replaces the simple switch in the electrical circuits of residential premises, L'interrupteur-prise est caractérisé par le fait qu'il permet l'application du rhéostat au réglage de l'intensité de l'éclairage domestique.The switch-socket is characterized by the fact that it allows the application of the rheostat to the regulation of the intensity of the domestic lighting. L'interrupteur-prise à rhéostat est caractérisé par le fait qu' il est un procédé d'économie d'énergie électrique dès lors qu'il permet l'adaptation/réduction aux besoins réels de l'intensité de l'éclairage domestique.The rheostat switch-socket is characterized by the fact that it is a method of saving electrical energy since it allows the adaptation / reduction to the real needs of the intensity of domestic lighting. L'interrupteur-prise à rhéostat est caractérisé par le fait qu'il est un important élément de confort par son adaptation immédiate aux souhaits de l'utilisateur : l'intensité d'éclairage idéale change plusieurs fois dans la même soirée dans la mesure où l'utilisateur dinde, regarde la télévision, lit ou souhaite dormir avec une lumière très faible.The rheostat switch-socket is characterized by the fact that it is an important element of comfort by its immediate adaptation to the wishes of the user: the ideal lighting intensity changes several times in the same evening insofar as user turkey, watch TV, read or want to sleep in very dim light. L'interrupteur-prise à rhéostat est caractérisé par le fait qu'il est porteur de deux prises: l'une fluctuant avec le rhéostat, l'autre solidaire du courant normal, permettant à partir du même endroit l'utilisation d'appareils pour lesquels une variation d'intensité n'est pas nécessaire. The rheostat switch-socket is characterized by the fact that it carries two sockets: one fluctuating with the rheostat, the other integral with the normal current, allowing from the same place the use of devices for which an intensity variation is not necessary.
