- These receiving wells have in their bottom a circular opening intended to accommodate one of the funds 212 pivotable.
- Said fixed portion 210 of the hubcap 200 is attached by snapping on the base 100 to close its front opening.
- the longitudinal side walls 102 of the base 100 internally comprise ratchet flanges 102B on which attach 211A teeth projecting from the outer face of the cylindrical side walls 211 receiving wells 210 (see Figure 9).
- each receiving well 210 is attached to said fixed portion 201 of the hubcap 200.
- each bottom 212 is snapped onto a shoulder 211A of the cylindrical side wall 211 of said receiving well 210 (see FIGS. 4 and 5).
- each bottom 212 can be pivoted about an axis X2 (normal to the bottom plane 212) by sliding its groove annular side 214 on said cylindrical side wall 211 of the receiving well 210 corresponding to it to take two positions of use shown in Figures 3A and 3B, namely a first position of making coincide the through holes 212A, 212B the bottom 212 with the receiving cells 113, 124 or 115,126 of the base 100 located along the X axis (see FIG. 3B) and a second inclined position consisting of making the through holes 212A, 212B of said bottom 212 coincide with the cells of receiving 114, 123 or 116,125 of the base 100 located along the axis X1 (see Figure 3A).
- each receiving well 210 is attached to the base 100 of the double socket.
- each bottom 212 is snapped onto projecting teeth 104, 105 provided on the inner face 102A of the parallel longitudinal side walls 102 of the base 100 (see FIGS. 9 and 10). It is provided here for each bottom 212, a pair of teeth 104,105 facing one another projecting from the inner faces of the longitudinal side walls 102 of the base 100.
- each bottom 212 can be pivoted about an axis X2 (normal to the bottom plane 212) by sliding its groove annular side 214 on the protruding teeth 104,105 of the longitudinal side walls 102 of the base 100 so as to make it take two positions of use shown on the FIGS. 8A and 8B, namely a first position consisting in making the through holes 212A, 212B of the bottom 212 coincide with the receiving cavities 113, 124 or 115, 126 of the base 100 situated along the X axis (see FIG. 8B) and a second inclined position of matching the through holes 212A, 212B of said bottom 212 with the receiving recesses 114, 123 or 116,125 of the base 100 located along the axis X1 (see Figure 8A).
- the relative orientation of the receiving wells 210 of the double socket shown in FIGS. 3A and 8A makes it possible to plug two bent plugs (not shown) onto the double socket without the bend of the discomfort. insertion and extraction of the other.
- the user can choose to orient the receiving wells 210 of the socket differently by positioning one of the bottoms 212 with its through holes 212A, 212B along the X axis and the other bottom 212 with its through holes 212A, 212B along the axis X1.
- This configuration of the receiving wells which is not shown in the figures also allows to plug two bent plugs on the double socket without the bend of one hinders the insertion and extraction of the other.
- each receiving well 210 of said hubcap 200 carries conductive means for connection to the earth 220.
- Said conductive grounding means here comprise an electrical contact pin 220 which emerges inside the corresponding receiving well 210.
- the base 100 comprises a grounding conductor element T which comprises, at each end, a receiving cavity 133, 134, 135, 136, and each bottom 212 of each receiving well 210 of the hubcap 200 carries, projecting from its rear face, an electrical contact pin 221, connected to said conductive earth connection means 220, adapted to plug into one of said receiving cells 133, 134, 135, 136 of said conductive ground element T.
- the earth pin 220 which emerges inside each receiving well 210 comprises a shank 221 which protrudes from the rear face of the bottom 212 of the receiving well 210 and which thus forms said contact pin electrical socket intended to be plugged into one of the receiving cavities 133, 134, 135, 136 connected to said conductive element for grounding T.
- the conductive grounding element T is here also a conductive wire sheathed with an insulating envelope.
- the stripped ends of the conductive wire T are connected by means of a metal tongue 131A (see FIGS. 2 and 6) to a receiving cavity 133, 134, 135, 136 of a contact pin of an electrical plug.
- each receiving cavity 133, 134, 135, 136 is a double cell. It is therefore provided at each end of the conductive grounding element T two cavities 133, 134, 135, 136 face to face which communicate with each other.
- Receiving cavities 133, 134, 135, 136 of the conductive grounding element T are delimited by rounded portions facing folded metal tabs 131, 132. These rounded portions opposite form clamps adapted to clamp the tail 221 of the earth pin 220 of each receiving well 210 so as to establish an electrical contact therebetween and the grounding conductor element T connected to a ground terminal 142 via a metal tongue 137.
- the earth terminal 142 is part of the terminal block B, it is located between the neutral input terminals 141 and 143.
- each receiving well 210 can be rotated at the request by the installer or the user between their first and second positions of use while the double socket is completely assembled and embedded in the wall during the pivoting of each bottom 212 the tail 221 of each earth pin 220 carried by said bottom navigates from a receiving cavity 133,135 to the other receiving cavity 134,136 which faces the corresponding end of the conductive element for grounding T.
- the user can use the plug plugged into a receiving well 210 of the double socket to rotate the bottom 212 of said receiving well 210 between its first and second positions of use because during pivoting said bottom 212 the contact pins of the electrical plug navigate, through the passage 118,119,128,129, a receiving cell 113,115,124,126 to the other receiving cavity 114,116,123, 125 adjacent to the corresponding end of the conductive elements P, N.
