Definitions

  • the innovation relates to a socket safety device with a locking plate arranged to be rotatably displaceable between a lid and a base plate, the outer dimensions of the lid and base plates being dimensioned in such a way that they can be inserted into the trough formed by a socket outlet, and the base plate through an associated fastening means can be fastened in the trough formed by the socket.
  • Socket fuses of the type mentioned are known, for example, from DE3700231A1 or the DE 10 2012 000 617 A1 . These socket fuses are mounted inside the trough formed by the respective socket and fastened there by means of a suitable fastening means, for example screwed or glued on.
  • the locking plate like the cover and base plates, is usually provided with two through-holes for the contact pins of an electrical connector.
  • the through-holes in the cover, locking and base plates are usually positioned in such a way that they only release complete through-channels for the contact pins of the plug in an opening position that can be occupied by moving the locking plate, so that they can be plugged into the contact elements of the socket .
  • the locking plate In a rest position, on the other hand, the locking plate is displaced in such a way that the through channels are closed, so that unintentional contact from the outside with the contact elements of the socket is prevented.
  • the locking plate is usually supported by spring or other retaining elements are held in their rest position, and the locking plate is usually moved into its open position by using the contact pins of the plug to move the locking plate when it is inserted become.
  • Such socket safety devices are preferably used, for example, to prevent small children from playing with an object at a socket, accidentally making contact with a contact element of the socket and thereby suffering damage.
  • the outer contour of the socket outlet fuse can be matched comparatively precisely to the inner contour of the socket outlet recess, so that the through holes are automatically and appropriately positioned during assembly. With such a precise coordination of the contours, undesired jamming of the components can easily occur during assembly.
  • the innovation is therefore based on the object of specifying an improved socket protection of the type mentioned above, in which, with particularly simple means, increased security against unintentional actuation and short circuits can be achieved and at the same time a high level of user-friendliness.
  • the invention therefore relates to a socket safety device with a locking plate which is arranged displaceably between a cover plate and a base plate.
  • the outer dimensions of the top and bottom plates are dimensioned in such a way that they can be inserted into the trough formed by a socket; the base plate can also be fastened by an associated fastening means in the trough formed by the socket.
  • the cover plate is provided with a guide opening and the base plate is provided with a guide opening in addition to the fastening means, these guide openings in the assembled state of the cover and base plate being a continuous one for receiving one Form a suitable guide channel arranged on the socket guide pin.
  • the locking plate is provided with a guide opening extending along a provided displacement direction in such a way that the guide opening of the locking plate in each position of the locking plate between the cover and base plate made possible by the provided displacement has the guide channel formed by their guide openings in its for the passage of the guide pin of the socket keeps the required cross-section open
  • the cover plate is designed with through holes in the form of elongated holes.
  • the cover plate of the socket outlet fuse according to the invention is also designed with through holes in the form of elongated holes with a curved contour.
  • the intended displaceability of the locking plate includes rotational movements.
  • “displacement” and “displaceable” refer to a relative movement between the locking plate and the cover or base plate, which includes a rotational movement.
  • the locking plate of the socket outlet fuse is also held in a rest position by at least one spring element.
  • the rest position denotes the position of the locking plate opposite to the open position, whereby in the open position the through channels in the socket fuse are released for the contact pins of the plug so that they can be plugged into the contact elements of the socket.
  • the locking plate of the socket safety device which is designed to release electrical contact elements of the socket by means of a rotational movement, comprises housing parts and a spring element held between the housing parts.
  • the locking plate can be designed to release electrical contact elements of the socket by means of a rotational movement.
  • the locking plate can assume a rest position with minimal rotation and an open position with maximum rotation.
  • resilient side arms of the spring element can be tensioned to generate a restoring force.
  • the spring element can be rotationally fixed by means of a groove in a holding head formed on the inside of the cover plate.
  • the spring element and the corresponding groove are advantageously constructed and designed in such a way that when the spring is pretensioned, the spring element remains firmly in the groove and does not jump out. In this way a short circuit cannot be created.
  • the guide opening can be designed as a recess extending along the outer edge of the housing parts in the manner of a segment of a circle.
  • the locking plate can particularly advantageously be rotatable about its central axis.
  • the guide channel formed by the guide openings is kept open in its cross section required for the cross section of the guide pin of the socket when the locking plate is rotated about its central axis in every position of the locking plate.
  • the locking plate In the unloaded state, the locking plate is held in the rest position by means of the spring elements, and the socket outlet safety device is accordingly opened against the spring force applied by the spring elements.
  • the innovation on which the present invention is based is based on the consideration that particularly simplified assembly can be provided, in particular for a socket outlet fuse, which is provided for attachment to a socket outlet provided with a guide pin.
  • This can be used specifically to facilitate assembly, in that the components of the socket outlet fuse are each provided with a guide opening adapted to such a guide pin.
  • the guide opening of the locking plate should be suitably designed and contoured to allow the locking plate to be moved between the open and rest position without hindrance even when the guide pin is inserted.
  • the socket fuse 1 serves to secure a socket 2 in the event that the plug 4 is not plugged in. It is provided in particular to prevent small children from playing with an object on a socket 2, accidentally making contact with a contact element 6 of the socket and thereby suffering damage.
  • the socket fuse 1 comprises, as in particular the exploded views in Fig. 2 , 3 can be removed, as essential components a cover plate 12, a base plate 14 and a locking plate 16 rotatably arranged between these in the assembled state can be brought in.
  • the base plate 14 can be fastened by an associated fastening means 20, in the exemplary embodiment a durable double-sided adhesive tape, in the trough 18 formed by the socket outlet 2.
  • the cover plate 12, the base plate 14 and the locking plate 16 are each provided with two through holes 22 for the contact pins 24 of the electrical connector 4.
  • the locking plate 16 is in the embodiment according to Figures 1 to 5 designed for releasing the electrical contact elements 6 of the socket 2 by means of a rotary movement of the locking plate 16. In the end positions of the rotational movement of the locking plate 16 made possible by these components, the locking plate 16 can assume a rest position with minimal rotation and an open position with maximum rotation. In the rest position, the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 are positioned rotated relative to the through holes 22 of the base plate 14, and the separating surface 26 of the locking plate 16 closes the through holes 22 in the base plate 14. In this position, access to the contact elements 6 of the socket 2 positioned below the through holes 22 of the base plate 14 is therefore not possible.
  • the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 come to lie directly above the through holes 22 of the bottom plate 14, so that the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 and bottom plate 14 form a through channel for the contact pins 24 of the electrical connector 4 and release it .
  • the through holes 22 in the cover plate 12 are designed as elongated holes with a curved contour, which enable the contact pins 24 to engage in the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 in all positions of the displacement path the locking plate 16 allow.
  • the contact pins 24 of the electrical connector 4 engage with the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 through the through holes 22 of the cover plate 12.
  • the locking plate 16 can then be rotated by means of the plug 4 up to the open position, where the through holes 22 of the base plate 14 are released and the plug 4 can be plugged into the contact elements 6 of the socket 2 below.
  • the locking plate 16 is in turn made in several parts; it comprises two housing parts 30, 32, between which an S-shaped spring element 34 is held. This is brought into engagement with its central area during the assembly of the socket outlet fuse 1 with a groove 36 in a retaining head 38 formed centrally on the inside of the cover plate 12 and thereby fixed in a rotational manner. Holding heads 39 formed on the inside of the housing parts 30, 32 come into engagement with the free ends of the spring element 34, so that when the locking plate 16 rotates around the holding head 38, the resilient side arms of the spring element 34 are tensioned. This generates the restoring force which, when the locking plate 16 is rotated, brings it back to the rest position.
  • the spring element 34 and correspondingly the groove 36 are advantageously constructed and designed in such a way that even when the spring is pretensioned, the S-shaped spring element 34 remains firmly in the groove 36 and does not pop out so that it does not create a short circuit.
  • the socket fuse 1 is designed for easier installation in the socket 2 using the guide pin 43 provided on the socket 2.
  • the cover plate 12 is provided with a guide opening 40 and the base plate 14 is provided with a guide opening 42 in addition to the fastening means 20.
  • the guide openings 40, 42 form a continuous guide channel 44 suitable for receiving the guide pin 43 arranged on the socket outlet 2
  • the locking plate 16 in the present case the housing parts 30, 32 forming it, is provided with a guide opening designed for this purpose.
  • this is designed as a recess 48 extending along the outer edge of the housing parts 30, 32 in the manner of a segment of a circle, so that when the locking plate 16 is rotated about its central axis in every position of the locking plate 16 between Rest and opening position holds the guide channel 44 formed by the guide openings 40, 42 open in its cross section required for the guide pin 43 of the socket 2 to pass through.
  • the socket fuse 1 is in Fig. 4 Shown in plan view in the rest position of the locking plate 16. In this position, the spring element 34 rotationally fixed in the groove 36 is relaxed, and the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 are rotationally offset or rotated with respect to the through holes 22 of the base plate 14. In contrast, FIG Fig. 5 The socket safety device 1 in plan view in the open position of the locking plate 16. It can be clearly seen that in this position the through holes 22 of the locking plate 16 are now directly above the through holes 22 of the base plate 14, so that the plug 4 into the contact elements 6 of the socket below 2 can be plugged in. In both positions, i.e. in the in Fig. 4 rest position shown and also in the in Fig. 5 The opening position of the locking plate 16 shown in the figure, the guide openings 40, 42, 46 form a continuously open guide channel 44 suitable for receiving the guide pin 43 arranged on the socket outlet 2.
  • the locking plate 16 is designed for a displacement of the locking plate 16 by rotation or twisting.
  • “displacement” and “displaceable” in this sense is generally based on a relative movement between the locking plate 16 and the cover or base plate 12, 14, which expressly includes a rotational movement.
