  • the bottom 30 of this base 21 has, at a distance from each other, along the corresponding diameter, and therefore crosswise with the phase pins 26, two holes 32 , figure 7.
  • the base 21 is closed by a fixed plate 34, while being surmounted by a well 35, which, in practice, has a diameter greater than it.
  • the plate 34 is fitted, by a collar 36, on a collar 37 extending the side wall 29 of the base 21 beyond the bottom 38 of the well 35, while being wedged on this collar 37 by pins 40 which, arranged in diametrically opposite positions with respect to each other, each engage respectively in two notches 41 thereof, FIG. 3.
  • the flange 36 of the plate 34 extends recessed with respect to its peripheral edge, so that, thanks to the well 35, this plate 34 extends slightly in overhang beyond the flange 37 of the base 21, at a distance from the bottom 38 of this well 35.
  • the plate 34 has, at a distance from each other, along a diameter, two holes 42.
  • phase bores 42 are both elongated in the buttonhole, according to the corresponding diameter.
  • the plate 34 also has, between the phase bores 42, an earth connection bore 44.

  • this sheet part 10B further comprises, associated, at least, with its phase sockets 27, a retractable flap 47 mounted movably between a rest position, FIG. 4, for which, while waiting, it obscures these phase 27 cells, and a working position, Figure 4A, for which, in service, it releases them.
  • this retractable flap 47 is rotatably mounted on the very surface of the plug part 10B, above the plate 34 closing its base 21, extending substantially flush with the free edge of the flange 45 from its well 35.
  • the holes 48 of this retractable flap 47 are elongated in the buttonhole, while its central hole 49 is of circular outline.
  • this central bore 49 can be lengthened along a diameter perpendicular to that along which the holes 48 extend.
  • the retractable flap 47 is engaged, in rotation, with the underlying plate 34.
  • the outer surface of these hooking bosses 51 is biased by a chamfer, so that the mounting tabs 50 constitute latching tabs.
  • the retractable flap 47 is placed on the underlying plate 34, duly secured, it, for example by welding, to the flange 37 of the base 21, is done by simple snap-fastening.
  • the mounting lugs 50 which it presents extend slightly back from its peripheral edge, at the right of notches 52 affecting the latter.
  • flanges 53 At their ends extend flanges 53 to reinforce their resistance.
  • the retractable flap 47 extends at a distance from the underlying plate 34.
  • this plate 34 has, to do this, projecting in its central zone, a boss 55, FIG. 7, on which the retractable flap 47 carries.
  • the peripheral edge of the retractable flap 47 also extends overhang, beyond that of the plate 34.
  • the retractable flap 47 comprises at least one locking tab 56 by which, in the rest position, it is engaged with a recess 57 of the underlying plate 34, and it is at least locally elastically deformable, so that, by elastic deformation, a thrust exerted axially on its peripheral edge in line with this locking tab 56, as shown diagrammatically by an arrow F1 in FIG. 11, is sufficient to release the latter from this recess 57 of deck 34.
  • the recess 57 of the plate 34 is a notch in its peripheral edge, and the locking tab 56 of the retractable flap 47 has, facing it, a boss 58 suitable for engaging therein.
  • the plate 34 comprises, circumferentially at a distance from each other, for the locking tab 56 of the retractable flap 47, two recesses 57, 60, one, the recess 57 for example, for the position rest of this retractable flap 47, FIG. 8, the other, the recess 60, for its working position, FIG. 12.
  • the retractable flap 47 comprises, in diametrically opposite positions relative to one another, two locking tabs 56, which are arranged alternately with its mounting tabs 50, and, in correspondence, the plate 34 shows two sets of recesses 57, 60.
  • the recesses 57, 60 which the plate 34 thus presents affect parts of the peripheral edge of this plate 34 which protrude from the current part of this peripheral edge, whereas, on the contrary, it is with this main part that the retractable flap 47 is in rotation with this plate 34 by its mounting lugs 50.
  • the base part 10A of the adapter 10 constitutes, from this point of view, in the embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 12, an active part, and, therefore, it comprises, jointly, for cooperation with the plug-in connection member that constitutes the earthing socket 28 provided in correspondence on the plug part 10B, a complementary plug-in connection member, in this case a pin 62 which extends projecting along its axis on the lower surface of its bottom 12, with, the contact member that constitutes the spindle 14 projecting from the upper surface of this bottom 12 to the connection member constituted by this spindle 62, a suitable electrical connection.
  • this electrical connection is provided by a metal strip 63, which extends to the bottom surface of the bottom 12, according to a diameter thereof, and on which the pins 14 and 62 are each crimped, the spindle 14 passing through the bottom 12 by a bore 64 thereof.
  • these disengageable securing means are mounting means of the bayonet mounting type.
  • the plug part 10B has two grooves 65 with which each are respectively suitable to engage the two mounting feet 16 of the base part 10A.

  • the square returns 17 of the mounting feet 16 of the base part 10A are then each located respectively in line with the circumferential section 67 of the grooves 65 of the plug part 10B, it suffices, then, to secure the subjection of this base part 10A on the plug part 10B, to rotate it on itself in the direction corresponding to that of this circumferential section 67.
  • the holes 48 of the retractable flap 47 are each respectively in correspondence with the holes 42 of this plate 34, which frees access to the phase cells 27 of the plug part 10B.
  • the base part 10A is duly secured, by the corresponding bayonet fitting, to this plug part 10B, the adapter 10 according to the invention thus formed is therefore ready for use.
