Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to socket outlets, and it relates more particularly, but not necessarily exclusively, to those of these socket outlets, commonly known as socket outlets to be built in, which, to be implanted in any support, and for example in a wall or a partition, are adapted to be housed in a box, commonly known as a mounting box, itself arranged in a recess provided for this purpose in such a support.
  • Such a socket outlet comprises, overall, on the one hand, a mechanism, which has, in an insulating body, at least two conductive cells and at least two connection terminals, and, on the other hand, under the shape, in practice, of a frame intended to allow the attachment of the assembly to the embedding box, a support, the mechanism of which is integral, and which, by its central recess, gives free access to it- ci, in particular as regards its conductive cells and as regards the clamping screws of its connection terminals.
  • a hub cap which, in turn, only allows access to the conductive cells of the mechanism, to allow the engagement, in these, of the pins a plug socket outlet duly matched, and which, on the other hand, obscures access to the clamping screws of the connection terminals, and, more generally, access to all the active parts of the mechanism other as its conductive cells, that is to say to all the metal parts of this mechanism likely to be under tension with them.
  • eclipses comprising a movable shutter, which, at rest, prohibits access to these conductive cells, and which, when engaging the pins of a socket outlet, and under the very effects of this engagement, authorizes on the contrary this access to these pins.
  • this protection device is worn by the hubcap.
  • the protection device is carried by the mechanism itself, so that the removal of the hubcap does not free access to the conductive cells of this mechanism.
  • the body of the mechanism is integral with the support, total security is then preserved.
  • the present invention generally relates to a provision making it possible to reconcile security requirements with the possibility of controlling without dismantling the connection of electrical conductors.
  • a socket outlet of the kind comprising, on the one hand, a mechanism, which has, in a body of insulating material, at least two conductive cells and at least two connection terminals, and, on the other hand, a support, the mechanism of which is integral, and which, by a central recess, gives free access thereto,
  • this socket outlet socket being generally characterized in that, jointly, on the one hand, it is superimposed on the mechanism, a protective device comprising, in a manner known per se, a movable shutter, which, at rest, prohibits access to the conductive cells of this mechanism, and which, when of the engagement of a plug, authorizes this access to the pins of this plug, and, on the other hand, there is provision, at the outlet of each of the connection terminals of the mechanism, an observation window.
  • observation windows thus implemented operate at the level of the front face of the mechanism and are elongated in the form of lights.
  • each of them is, at least locally, sufficiently narrow to oppose the passage of the test finger provided for by the normative provisions in the matter.
  • At least one of them is at least partially closed by a transparent porthole.
  • the desired security remains ensured when the hubcap is removed, the active parts of the mechanism being generally the subject of a sufficient overlap so that, even taking into account the clamping screws of the connection terminals, which remain accessible on the front panel using a tool, any direct access to the active parts of the mechanism is prohibited by touch or finger. test.
  • the observation windows make it possible to visually control the connection of the electrical conductors, and, more precisely, the arrangement and the number of these, without it being necessary to intervene in any way on the socket outlet, and, in particular, without it being necessary to remove it from the flush-mounting box to which it is attached.
  • the socket outlet socket 10 comprises, on the whole, on the one hand, as is better visible in FIGS. 2 and 5, a mechanism 11, which has, in a body 12 of insulating material, at least two conductive cells 13 and at least two connection terminals 14, and, on the other hand, a support 15, of which the mechanism 11 is integral, and which, by a central recess 16, leaves free access thereto.
  • the contour of the central recess 16 of the support 15 is generally circular, at least in two zones of this central recess 16 diametrically opposite one with respect to the other.
  • the socket outlet socket 10 is, in practice, intended to be installed in any support 18, a wall or a partition for example , being for this purpose attached to a mounting box, not shown, housed in an excavation 19 provided for this purpose in this support 18.
  • the body 12 of the mechanism 11 is, in the embodiment shown, in one piece with the support 15, the assembly forming a single piece 20 obtained by molding of any suitable synthetic material.
  • the support 15 is in the general form of a flat plate, of generally rectangular outline.
  • the part 20 to which it belongs forms, along the perimeter of its central recess 16, a housing 21, which has, peripherally, a side wall 22, and on the bottom 23 of which intervenes the mechanism 11.
  • the socket outlet socket 10 comprises, for example, only two conductive cells 13, which are each respectively in electrical connection with the two connection terminals 14 , and it is equipped with an earth pin 24, which extends between the two conductive cells 13, projecting from the bottom 23 of the housing 21, and which is itself in electrical connection with a connection terminal 25.
  • connection terminals 14, 25 open, laterally, on the same wall 26 of the body 12 of the mechanism 11.
  • connection terminals 14, 25 comprises, in a manner known per se, on the one hand, a block 31, of metal, which, parallel to the bottom 23 of the housing 21, is perforated with a bore 32 aligned with the outlet 28 corresponding, and, on the other hand, a clamping screw 33, which, intervening in a well 34 of the body 12, is in screw connection with the block 31 by transversely cutting the bore 32 thereof.
  • connection terminal 25 associated with the grounding pin 24 is double, and therefore has two clamping screws 33, to allow possible transplanting.
  • the conductive cells 13 of the mechanism 11 are generally cylindrical, and that, to ensure by elasticity a good electrical contact with these pins, they are elastically deformable radially.
  • D 1 be the average diameter of these conductive cells 13 at rest, FIG. 2.
  • a protective device 35 comprising, in a manner known per se, sheltered from a upper plate 36, a movable shutter 37, which, at rest, prevents access to the conductive cells 13 of this mechanism 11, and which, when engaging a plug, not shown, and by reason of this engagement , authorizes this access to the pins of this plug, and, on the other hand, there is provision, at the outlet 28 of each of the connection terminals 14, 25 of the mechanism 11, an observation window 38, 39.
  • observation windows 38 which each correspond respectively to the connection terminals 14 relating to the conductive cells 13, extend, each respectively, on either side of the observation window 39, which itself corresponds to the connection terminal 25 relating to the earth pin 24.
  • the wall 26 of the body 12 of the mechanism 11 on which the connection terminals 14, 25 open recedes with respect to the side wall 22 of the housing 21, and, for the formation observation windows 38, 39, the bottom 23 of this housing 21 is at least locally hollowed out.
  • connection terminal 25 is offset transversely relative to the connection terminals 14, by virtue of a boss 40 of the body 12 of the mechanism 11 which protrudes from the wall 26 of this body 12.
  • observation windows 38 thus extend each respectively on either side of this boss 40, while the observation window 39 extends, it, in line with the latter, biting in practice slightly on the side wall 22 of the housing 21 by means of a notch 41 of this last.
  • each of the observation windows 38, 39 is, at least locally, sufficiently narrow to oppose the passage of the test finger provided for by the normative provisions in the matter.
  • At least one of the observation windows 38, and, in practice, each of these, is at least locally delimited by a portion remaining 42 from the bottom 23 of the housing 21.
  • this remaining portion 42 extends to the boss 40 of the body 12 of the mechanism 11, and it has, in plan, a generally triangular contour.
  • observation window 38 On one side, it longitudinally borders the observation window 38 concerned, extending substantially parallel to the wall 26 of the body 12, and, on another side, it forms the corresponding transverse edge of the observation window 39.
  • the observation windows 38 are thus substantially elongated in a rectangle, in the manner of lights, and, in practice, it is generally the same for the observation window 39.
  • the width of the observation windows 39, or, more precisely, their dimension D 2 measured along the direction of engagement F of an electrical conductor 30 in the corresponding connection terminal 14, 25, can be of the order of 3 to 3.5 mm.
  • Such a width or dimension D 2 is effectively sufficiently small to effectively oppose the engagement of a test finger, but, to fix ideas, it is greater than half the average diameter D 1 of the conducting cells 13 of mechanism 11 at rest.
  • this mean diameter D 1 is usually of the order of 3 mm.
  • the protection device 35 will not be described here.
  • its upper plate 36 follows, on a part of its perimeter, the wall 26 of the body 12 of the mechanism 11, and that, on the remaining portion of this perimeter, it is fitted into a rebate 44 provided for this purpose on the surface of this body 12.
