Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un dispositif de sécurité par verrouillage pour prise de courant.The present invention relates to a locking safety device for an electrical outlet.
Plus précisément, il s'agit d'une prise munie d'un dispositif assurant une sécurité contre l'électrocution.More specifically, it is a socket fitted with a device ensuring safety against electrocution.
On connaît des dispositifs classiques utilisant des simples tétons. D'une manière générale ceux-ci sont constitués par un socle muni d'un système où l'on trouve une phase et un neutre dans lequel coulisse un téton.Conventional devices are known using simple nipples. In general, these are constituted by a base provided with a system where there is a phase and a neutral in which slides a stud.
On s'est rendu compte cependant que cette sécurité n'était pas suffisante. C'est ainsi que par quelques utilisations, les ressorts des tétons se fatiguent et se placent plus ou moins bien dans leur fourreau, ce qui occasionne des problèmes bien connus dans toutes les familles où les enfants arrivent a un age où il faut toucher à tout...We realized, however, that this security was not sufficient. Thus by some uses, the springs of the nipples get tired and are placed more or less well in their sheath, which causes well known problems in all families where the children reach an age where it is necessary to touch everything ...
La présente invention entend remédier à ces inconvénients en proposant un perfectionnement à ces prises connues, par lequel la sécurité est nettement améliorée.The present invention intends to remedy these drawbacks by proposing an improvement to these known sockets, by which security is clearly improved.
A cet effet, l'invention a pour objet un dispositif de sécurité par verrouillage pour prise de courant, constitué par un corps de forme comme carrée, ronde ou autre, équipé de plusieurs fourreaux destinés à l'amenage du courant, les broches des prises viennent chercher le courant dans ces dits fourreaux.To this end, the subject of the invention is a safety device by locking for a socket, constituted by a body of square, round or other shape, equipped with several sleeves intended for supplying the current, the pins of the sockets come and get the current in these so-called sheaths.
Selon l'une des caractéristiques principales de l'invention, c'est que les fourreaux sont isolés de l'extérieur par un masque qui se verrouille lors du retrait de la fiche.According to one of the main characteristics of the invention, it is that the sleeves are isolated from the outside by a mask which is locked when the plug is removed.
Dans un mode préféré de réalisation de l'invention, le masque de protection susdit se présente sous la forme d'un couvercle perçé d'une pluralité de trous dont un certain nombre permet le verrouillage.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the aforesaid protective mask is in the form of a cover pierced with a plurality of holes, a number of which allows locking.
Enfin, avantageusement, un ressort spécial permet au masque de revenir à sa position initiale et là se verrouille par des tétons indépendants du socle.Finally, advantageously, a special spring allows the mask to return to its initial position and there is locked by pins independent of the base.
L'invention sera mieux comprise au cours de la description donnée ci-après à titre d'exemple purement indicatif et non limitatif, qui permettra d'en dégager les avantages et les caractéristiques secondaires.The invention will be better understood during the description given below by way of purely indicative and nonlimiting example, which will make it possible to identify the advantages and the secondary characteristics thereof.
Il sera fait référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :
- - la Figure 1 illustrée par une vue en plan schématise le système de sécurité ;
- la Figure 2 est une vue en coupe suivant AA ;
- - la Figure 3 est une vue du système de verrouillage adaptable sur le socle.
- - Figure 1 illustrated by a plan view shows schematically the security system;
- Figure 2 is a sectional view along AA;
- - Figure 3 is a view of the locking system adaptable to the base.
En se rapportant tout d'abord à la Figure 2 on voit en coupe un socle aux normes classiques 1 dans lequel arrive le courant par les bornes 2.Referring first to FIG. 2, there is seen in section a base according to
Un masque mobile 3 qui recouvre les bornes. En son centre il peut être retenu par une vis 7, circlips ou autre système. Dans le masque, des logements sont prévus pour qu'il puisse se verrouiller par des tétons 3 montés sur palonnier avec un ressort 10 spécial ou autre, ceux-ci peuvent-être indépendants ou montés sur un palonnier 3a ou autre, mais faisant toujours office de blocage. Il est à noter que le masque 3 fait une rotation une fois la fiche retirée, grâce à un ressort spécial 4 le ramenant à sa position initiale et là, les tétons pénètrent dans leur logement et verrouillent le masque ce qui lui permet d'assurer une sécurité efficace. Dans le masque, une lumière 8 est effective pour la prise de terre, de façon à ce qu'il puisse effectuer sa rotation et sa mise en butée.A
La Figure 1 illustre comment s'effectue la rotation (voir flèche) une fois la fiche enfoncée, elle pousse lestétons, il ne reste qu'à tourner dans le sens de la flèche et d'enfoncer les fiches dans les bornes d'arrivée du courent. Des points de fixation 11 pour permettre l'accrochage dans le mur ou dans son bottier sont prévus.Figure 1 illustrates how the rotation is performed (see arrow) once the plug is pressed, it pushes the studs, all that remains is to turn in the direction of the arrow and to insert the plugs into the terminals of the run.
On voit qu'avec le dispositif selon l'invention on peut obtenir une sécurité efficace et éviter tout incident d'électrocution.It can be seen that with the device according to the invention, effective security can be obtained and any incident of electrocution can be avoided.
L'invention trouve une application intéressante dans les installations électriques à usage domestique, industriel ou connexes (Collectivités, Ecoles, Hôpitaux...).The invention finds an interesting application in electrical installations for domestic, industrial or related use (Communities, Schools, Hospitals ...).
Elle n'est pas limitée à la description qui vient d'en être donnée, mais couvre au contraire toutes les variantes qui pouraient lui être apportées sans sortir de son cadre ni de son esprit, en particulier en ce qui concerne son adaptation sur la prise normalisée allemande.It is not limited to the description which has just been given, but on the contrary covers all the variants which could be made to it without departing from its scope or its spirit, in particular as regards its adaptation to the socket. German standard.
