Description

Power socket for furniture.

The present invention relates to an outlet of current for furniture that presents characteristics of novelty and Inventive activity about what is currently known.

The outlet for furniture subject to present invention has simplicity characteristics construction and assembly, as well as safety features in the installation in a piece of furniture or similar, completely avoiding involuntary contacts

The inventors do not know devices Usable as electrical connection terminals in furniture that have substantial similarity with the present invention, so are not in a position to cite any specific device for the function to which the present invention is intended.

The power socket object of the present invention is essentially realized by a body carrier envelope of protected contact elements for an external plug and is externally equipped with a threaded area relatively long, with a simple nut attached to said threaded, which is likely to exert pressure for fixing He takes it on a furniture wall. For the centering of the shot this has a cylindrical or other neck, intended to match in a corresponding hole of the furniture and a wall for butt on the accessible face of the furniture itself, on whose face later it will press the mentioned nut. It makes the assembly of the device is extraordinarily simple, the introduction of the same in the hole in the wall of the furniture and then proceed to the manual threading of the nut on the face back of said wall, without the need for other manipulations or fasteners

The power outlet has a front cover articulated and fixed to pressure in the body of the same, intended to functionally protect the power outlet and also with aesthetic goals.

The body of the shot is constituted by two parts that can be joined together simply by pressure and corresponding each of them to one half of the body of the device according to a section by a diametral plane, both fixed by a screw. In inside the enclosure body the elements are arranged for coupling a plug and those for connection to cables of the current.

For your better understanding they are attached, by title non-limiting example, drawings of an outlet performed in accordance with the present invention.

Figure 1 shows a view of the power coupled to a furniture wall, with a plug inserted in the same.

Figure 2 shows a side view of the shot  of current, with the lid open.

Figure 3 shows a bottom view of the Own outlet.

Figure 4 is a bottom view of the partially disassembled current.

Figure 5 is a top view of the outlet partially disassembled current.

As can be seen in the figures, the current object of the present invention comprises a hollow body envelope (1) equipped with a relatively long rear area (2) equipped with threading, a front neck (3), cylindrical or other shape, intended to match inside a hole (4) made on the wall (5) of the furniture in which the terminal, with the body (1) in its front part a wall (6) intended to butt with the front face (7) of the wall (5). A large nut is attached to the thread (2) dimensions (8) intended to press against the rear face (9) of the wall (5) of the furniture, for fixing the socket stream. This receives the current input conductor (10) by the end of the zone (2) and is susceptible to receiving a plug (11) on the opposite side. An articulated lid (12) allows the plug housing closure when the power outlet It is not in service.

The cover (12) has a small front recess (13) to facilitate manual opening and small projections interns such as (14), (15), (16) and (17) intended to match with the front flange of the body (1), making its retention elastic Figure 3 shows the hole (18) that presents the body for the input of the current conductor cable (10), as well as the articulation zone (19) for the cover (12).

The body of the device consists of two halves (1 ') and (1' '), figures 4 and 5, constituted as two halves, separated by a diametral plane, that is, passing through the shaft, of the body of the terminal, allowing its easy manufacturing by injection molding. Said component parts (1 ') and (1' ') they have small protruding studs such as (20), (21), (22) and (23) that fit into corresponding holes, not shown, of The other piece. Inside the pieces (1 ') and (1' ') is retained a carrier element (24) of the protected alveoli for insert the pins of a plug, which will be inserted through the holes (25) and (26), of a front housing of the body (1). The  fixing elements of the power and connection cables Ground are conventional and are not described in detail.

Preferably, both the outer body of the power socket as the cover and the clamping nut will remain made of a thermoplastic material with the appropriate insulating and resistant characteristics, although as is understand, it could also be done in materials metallic, a rubber material, etc.

The invention has been described based on the example not limitative contained in the drawings. However, the technicians in the field they will understand that multiple can be introduced variants that will fall within the scope of the invention, as defined in the claims.
