This utility model refers to a non-recessed plug base, whose essential characteristics They described below.

On numerous occasions, and for various reasons, it is it is necessary to place the low voltage electrical installations, such as the domestic type, views, that is, not embedded, since that it is impossible to proceed to its recessed either because the wall or wall does not allow it, either because the installation, as a whole, It requires it.

For these reasons it is of frequent application, electrical control, control and connection devices designed so that all of its components located inside of the body of the device, without protruding from the back of its flat base, which will be fixed in the most appropriate way on the indicated surface.

Obviously, all of this is subject to the established in the low voltage electrotechnical regulations, which comprehensively regulate safety regulations.

However, these devices designed to do not go embedded have an aesthetic problem, since that in many of its applications the dimensioning of the elements internal forces give the body a thickness or height considerable, and on many occasions, in addition, to increase this height with the incorporation of supplements.

All this affects the whole in its general appearance, creating a logical problem for decoration experts who, being forced to accept installations seen, not embedded, must, also, use bulky devices and, therefore, little aesthetic

In the specific case of the electrical device a referenced in this utility model, the basis non-recessed plug, precisely the safety regulations in electrical installations forces to incorporate in them some grounding elements, usually metal contacts lateral, which forces to increase the interior space of the body of the device, in order to accommodate the height elements indicated above.

The non-recessed plug base object of the This utility model offers a practical solution to the problematic stated above, since it immediately eliminates the aesthetic feeling of bulkiness in the set installed on a surface, wall or wall, when forced to perform an installation seen, not embedded.

This is obtained through the special provision of the supplementary element, which is placed on the body of the plug base, necessary to locate elements inside basic of said electrical device, performing it in practice with transparent material, always equipped with the characteristics dielectrics necessary for its function.

The realization of the plug base does not recessed with its supplementary top, made with transparent material, will eliminate the feeling of bulkyness, as mentioned above, of the device placed there, which fully meets the requirements required by the decoration and design professionals, by allowing them to adopt in your works an electrical device in accordance with this invention.

In order to carry out a description detailed of the elements that make up the base of object plug of this utility model, some drawings are attached in the that have been represented, by way of non-limiting example, about practical embodiments of said plug base.

In these drawings,

Figure 1 is a perspective view of the plug base with transparent supplementary element separate, or exploding;

Figure 2 is a perspective view, similar to that of the previous figure, of the base with the supplement transparent incorporated and which is the object of the invention;

Figure 3 is a sectional view through the plane diametral, of the complete base, showing the lateral contacts grounding;

Figure 4 draws in perspective, as a variant of embodiment, a base with the transparent form supplement quadrangular; Y

Finally, Figure 5 is a view in perspective of the complete plug base, of the type represented in figure 2, together with part of a plug that starts its positioning, as a sample of the practical application.

According to the mentioned drawings, the base of non-recessed plug object of the present invention, consists in a regular prismatic body (1), than in the drawings Attachments are presented with quadrangular perimeter and side walls (2) vertical, ending on an upper surface (3) slightly curved, descending outward on both senses.

In the central part of its upper face (3), the body (1) of the device, has a circular opening (4), perfectly centered, provided with interior walls (5) cylindrical, ending in a flat circular surface (6) where the openings (7) are located, circularly, where the cylindrical pins (8) of the plug (9) will be inserted, partially represented in figure 5.

They are also located in that place, the flexible warped contacts (10), which constitute the socket ground of these plug bases, whose contacts, as observed in the drawings, they are of remarkable height, exceeding the surface upper (3) of the body (1) of the plug base.

This is the main reason why the design of the plug base forces to have an extension in the upper part that, while covering and protecting the aforementioned contacts (10), acts as a guide and clamp pin (9), when it is placed in its place on the base (1).

In the device object of this model of utility, prolongation of the upper body (1) it consists of a cylindrical piece (11), of outer walls (11a), slightly curved, which fits perfectly inside of the circular opening (4), being fixed by the tabs (12) which has on its lower edge, tabs that will be firmly positioned inside the rectangular cavities (13) that the flat circular face (6) inside the opening (4), arranged diametrically opposed and coincident with the location of the warped contacts (10), which emerge from the extension (14) of the rectangular cavities (13), extension also rectangular, but somewhat narrower.

In the internal cylindrical face (11b) of the piece supplementary (11) are located projections (15) grouped in two pairs on both sides of the diametral axis perpendicular to the determined by the contacts (10), highlights that will guide and they will adjust the plug (9) when placed on the base (1). Too it is provided with some recesses (15a) that will laterally surround the contacts (10).

It is an essential feature of this model of utility, the fact that the supplementary piece (11) is made with totally transparent material, so that at be placed on the body (1) of the plug base, perfectly fixed inside the circular hole the opening (4), will not offer that first feeling of bulkyness to the device be placed at the place of installation, since due precisely to its transparency, it will practically happen unnoticed in sight.

A variant of practical implementation of the base object of this utility model, consists of manufacturing of the block-shaped upper transparent supplementary piece substantially prismatic (16) with its cylindrical central hole and its inner face (16a) identical to the inner face (11b) of the embodiment described above at the same time as its walls exteriors (16b) are located in correspondence with those of the body (1) in relation to the positioning of its perimeter.

It is clear that the transparency of the piece (11-16) at the same time that allows to visualize the part visible from the plug and before plugging it in, the metal parts of the contacts (10) gives a decorative and at the same time light image of the protruding assembly of the wall surface where it goes installed.

Describe the characteristics sufficiently essential of this utility model, it should be noted that all variation in dimensions, shapes, finishes and type of material that be used in the practical realization of this plug base, not alter the essentiality of the present invention, leaving everything this summarized in the following claims.
