Definitions

  • the invention relates to a switchable power connector, in particular a composed of switchable power connector and a flexible arm device.
  • a switchable socket essentially consists of a socket and a switch connected to the socket.
  • the socket can be embedded in a wall, for example, or it may be a secondary outlet, which is plugged into a recessed in a wall outlet.
  • Switchable sockets or power strips are usually used to disconnect electrical devices from the mains. Many electrical devices consume power even when turned off when the device is in a standby state. By using a switchable socket so power consumption of a device can be prevented in the off state.
  • the switch can be connected to the socket by means of a cable, the cable being a conventional power cable suitable for laying on the ground.
  • the cable usually has a relatively short length, so that when the socket is plugged in e.g. behind furniture is the switch is difficult to access.
  • the remote-controlled socket may, for example, be a remotely operable socket which contains a transmitting unit and a receiving unit arranged in the socket.
  • the remote-controlled socket has a number of disadvantages.
  • the necessity of providing a transmitting and receiving unit leads to an increased complexity and a consequent error-proneness compared to a wired system.
  • the remote control is usually battery operated, ie there is a need to replace the Batteries after their lifetime.
  • the dimensions of a remote control compared to a wired switch are usually large and there is a need to store the remote control.
  • a switchable power connector according to the preamble of claim 1 is made WO-A-2008 086 571 known.
  • Object of the present invention is to provide a switchable power plug, which has a simple structure and ensures easy accessibility of the switch, regardless of the position of the power plug.
  • the present invention provides a switchable power plug, comprising: a switch contact operable by a switch, a flexible arm attached to the power plug, at the end of which the switch is located, characterized in that the flexible arm is stiff which allows the flexible arm to maintain any shape regardless of its orientation.
  • the attached to the power plug flexible arm can have different lengths.
  • the length of the flexible arm is preferably in a range of 30cm to 150cm, in particular, the dimensions of the flexible arm may be, for example, 30cm, 60cm, 90cm, 120cm or 150cm.
  • the flexible arm has, according to a preferred embodiment, a cylindrical cross-section. However, another shape of the cross section is also possible.
  • the flexible arm here consists of an inner layer and an outer layer.
  • the inner layer of the flexible arm has a higher rigidity than the outer layer of the flexible arm.
  • the inner layer consists of a material of a given stiffness, which can be bent into any shape and maintains this shape regardless of its orientation.
  • the material of the inner layer may be a conductive material, such as a metal wire, which connects the switch disposed at the end of the flexible arm to the circuit.
  • the inner layer may be formed of a bendable material, wherein additionally a current carrying wire is arranged, which, like describe above the arranged at the end of the flexible arm switch connects to the circuit.
  • the outer layer of the flexible arm consists of a plurality of spaced-apart elements, wherein the inner layer is received in the outer layer.
  • the elements determine the possible bending radius of the flexible arm.
  • the outer layer of the flexible arm may consist of a flexible hose.
  • the hose may for example be formed of PVC or other suitable plastic.
  • other embodiments of the inner and outer layer of the flexible arm are also possible.
  • the power plug may additionally be provided with an overvoltage protection. This prevents any overvoltage caused by a lightning strike in the network from damaging electrical devices connected to the power plug.
  • the circuit is closed via the switch, i. All the electricity required by the consumer flows through the switch of the power plug.
  • the switch must be sufficiently dimensioned to be suitable for the connection of one or more strong consumers.
  • the flexible arm of the power plug according to the invention must be sufficiently dimensioned. With the fuses usually used in the household, the current through the switch can be up to 16A.
  • the switching contact is in the plug part of the power plug and is closed or opened by the operation of the switch on the flexible arm. In this case, not all of the current required by the load flows through the flexible arm and across the switch, only the current to drive the switch contact. This makes it possible to dimension the flexible arm and the switch correspondingly smaller and thus also to make more appealing.
  • a surge relay also called current surge switch
  • a push button instead of the switch
  • the mains voltage is applied to the button, so that the arm and button must be insulated.
  • the surge relay is bistable (ie, the two switching states are stored purely mechanically) and unipolar (ie with the same pulse is switched back and forth between the two switching states).
  • a control of the switching contact via a low-voltage unit can take place.
  • a small control voltage for example 3 V
  • the actuation of the switching contact takes place purely mechanically via a ram shaft (for example a fiberglass core) running in the flexible arm.
  • a ram shaft for example a fiberglass core
  • the switching contact is bistable (i.e., the two switching states are stored purely mechanically).
  • the switch can also have a control LED.
  • the control LED indicates whether a mains voltage is applied to the power plug or whether the power plug is disconnected from the mains. For example, lighting up the LED may indicate that a mains voltage is applied to the power plug, while not lighting the LED may indicate that the power plug is disconnected from the mains.
  • a two-color LED may be used whose color indicates the switching state.
  • the switch may be, for example, a push button switch, a push button switch or a rotary switch. However, the use of another suitable type of switch is also possible.
  • FIG. 1 an inventive switchable power connector (1) is shown.
  • a flexible arm (2) is attached to the power plug.
  • the flexible arm (2) is as in Fig.1 shown bent into a specific shape.
  • a switch (3) is arranged, which can be actuated by a user of the power plug. The operation of the switch requires, depending on the initial state in which the power plug (1) is whether a mains voltage is applied to the power plug (1), or whether the power plug (1) is disconnected from the mains.
  • the switch (3) may have a control LED (4) which indicates whether a mains voltage is applied to the power plug or whether the power plug is disconnected from the mains. For example, lighting the LED may indicate that a mains voltage is applied to the power plug, while not lighting the LED may indicate that the power plug is disconnected from the mains.
  • the flexible arm (2) points as in Fig.1 shown an outer layer, which consists of a plurality of spaced-apart elements. The elements determine the possible bending radius of the flexible arm (2).
  • the inner layer (not shown) of the flexible arm (2) is made of a material of a given rigidity, which can be bent into any shape and maintains this shape regardless of its orientation.
  • the material of the inner layer may be a conductive material, such as a metal wire, which connects the switch disposed at the end of the flexible arm to the circuit.
  • the inner layer may be formed of a bendable material, wherein additionally a current carrying wire is arranged, which as described above connects the switch arranged at the end of the flexible arm to the circuit.
  • the flexible arm (2) has in the embodiment of Fig. 1 a cylindrical cross section. However, another shape of the cross section is also possible.
  • the power plug of the Fig. 1 is additionally provided with an overvoltage protection (not shown), which prevents damage caused by a lightning strike in the network overvoltage connected to the power plug electrical devices.
  • FIG. 2 an inventive switchable power connector (11) is shown according to a further embodiment. Unlike the in Fig. 1 shown power connector is at the power connector (11) according to Fig. 2 the outer layer of the flexible arm (12) formed of a flexible hose.
  • the inner layer is as in relation to Fig.1 described from a material of a given stiffness, which can be bent into any shape and maintains this shape regardless of its orientation.
  • the material of the inner layer may be a conductive material, such as a metal wire, which connects the switch (13) located at the end of the flexible arm (12) to the circuit.
