Abstract
Description
On connaît des interrupteurs électriques actionnés au pied pour commander l'allumage de lampadaires ou de lampes posées sur le sol. Ces interrupteurs sont montés sur les cibles d'alimentation des lampes et se trouvent près des socles ou pieds de lampes en étant posés directement sur le sol, leur manoeuvre se faisant par pression du pied. Electric switches are known which are actuated at the foot to control the lighting of lampposts or lamps placed on the ground. These switches are mounted on the power supply targets of the lamps and are located near the bases or feet of lamps by being placed directly on the ground, their operation being done by pressure of the foot.
L'appareil constituant un tel interrupteur est composé d'un interrupteur unipolaire ou bipolaire à poussoir placé dans un boiter de façon que le bouton d'actionnement dépasse la surface supérieure du boîtier. Ce bouton est actionné de haut en bas avec retour en position haute sous l'action d'un ressort généralement en spirale. Cet interrupteur est traversé par le câble qui alimente la lampe électrique. The device constituting such a switch is composed of a single-pole or two-pole push-button switch placed in a box so that the actuation button exceeds the upper surface of the box. This button is operated from top to bottom with return to the high position under the action of a generally spiral spring. This switch is crossed by the cable which supplies the electric lamp.
L'invention propose un interruptueur de pied de lampe comprenant un interrupteur à bascule surmoulé ou monté à demeure sur le cible dlalimentation et placé dans un boîtier de dimensions appropriées pour avoir une large assise assurant le maintien de la base du boîtier contre le sol, ce boîtier recevant sur sa face supérieure un basculeur de commande destiné à actionner le basculeur de l'interrupteur surmoulé logé dans le boîtier. The invention provides a lamp base switch comprising a rocker switch overmolded or permanently mounted on the power supply target and placed in a housing of appropriate dimensions to have a wide seat ensuring the base of the housing against the ground, this housing receiving on its upper face a control rocker intended to actuate the rocker of the molded switch housed in the housing.
Selon une forme d'exécution préférée, le basculeur de boîtier porte vers le bas une lame de ressort à profil en V dont l'angle passe à chaque manoeuvre d'un c8té à l'autre d'un bossage du socle de boîtier présentant un angle d'environ 1200. According to a preferred embodiment, the casing rocker carries downwards a V-shaped leaf spring, the angle of which passes at each operation from one side to the other of a boss of the casing base having a angle of about 1200.
L'emploi de l'interrupteur surmoulé ou monté à demeure économise des brides de serrage du câble à l'entrée et à la sortie de l'interrupteur classique. Using the molded or permanently mounted switch saves cable clamps at the inlet and outlet of the conventional switch.
Pour bien faire comprendre ltinvention, on en décrirE ci-après un exemple d'exécution en référence au dessin schématique annexé, dans lequel
la figure 1 est une vue en plan du socle du boîtier de l'interrupteur
la figure 2 est une vue en plan du couvercle ; et
la figure 3 est une coupe verticale schématique du bottier de l'interrupteur montrant les deux positions du basculeur de bottier. To clearly understand the invention, an example of execution is described below with reference to the appended schematic drawing, in which
Figure 1 is a plan view of the base of the switch housing
Figure 2 is a plan view of the cover; and
Figure 3 is a schematic vertical section of the boot of the switch showing the two positions of the boot rocker.
L'interrupteur selon l'invention est compris dans un boîtier dont le socle 9 présente une large base d'appui au sol 2, un logement 3 pour recevoir l'interrupteur à bascule surmoulé ou monté à demeure sur le cible et des ouvertures 4 aux extrémités pour le passage du câble. De part et d'autre du logement 3, le socle porte des bossages latéraux 5 sur lesquels repose le basculeur 6. Le boîtier est complété par un couvercle 7 présentant l'ouverture 8 à travers laquelle dépasse la face supérieure du basculeur de boîtier 6. Ce basculeur de boîtier porte vers le bas une lame de ressort 9 à profil en V dont l'angle passe à chaque manoeuvre, comme indiqué ci-dessus, d'un coté à l'autre d'un bossage 10 du socle de boîtier présentant un angle d'environ 1200. Lors de l'actionnement du basculeur du boîtier, le ressort-passe de l'un à l'autre des pans inclinés du bossage 10 comme le montre la figure 3 qui représente les deux positions du basculeur du boîtier respectivement en trait plein et; en trait inter rompu On comprend que ce basculeur de boîtier sera établi de façon à actionner le basculeur de l'interrupteur 12 surmoulé ou monté à demeure sur le câble 11. The switch according to the invention is included in a housing, the base 9 of which has a wide support base on the ground 2, a housing 3 for receiving the rocker switch molded or permanently mounted on the target and openings 4 to the ends for cable passage. On either side of the housing 3, the base carries lateral bosses 5 on which the rocker 6 rests. The housing is completed by a cover 7 having the opening 8 through which projects beyond the upper face of the housing rocker 6. This box rocker carries downward a leaf spring 9 with a V profile, the angle of which passes at each operation, as indicated above, from one side to the other of a boss 10 of the box base having an angle of approximately 1200. When the casing rocker is actuated, the spring passes from one to the other of the inclined faces of the boss 10 as shown in FIG. 3 which shows the two positions of the casing rocker in solid lines and; in broken line It is understood that this box rocker will be established so as to actuate the rocker of the switch 12 molded or permanently mounted on the cable 11.
On comprendra que l'exemple d'exécution décrit ci-dessus et représenté au dessin n'a aucun caractère limitatif et qu'on pourrait prévoir diverses modifications sans s'écarter du cadre de l'invention définie par les revendications annexées0 It will be understood that the embodiment described above and shown in the drawing is in no way limiting and that various modifications could be made without departing from the scope of the invention defined by the appended claims.
