Abstract

The invention relates to safety devices preventing the risk of electrocution of a person putting a conducting body into one or other of the orifices. It comprises, on each of the barrels 1-2 of the socket, a switch which allows contact with the terminal 5-6 of the opposite cannon to be made when a body having a diameter substantially equal to that of a pin 3-4 of a standardised male plug is inserted right into it. These contacts are made by the thrust of an insulating pad (pill) 7-8 which, in a longitudinal slot, obstructs the bottom of the socket. This pad is fixed to a leaf spring 9, 10 which makes electrical contact with the main, by means of platinum-plated contact areas 11-12 supplying the terminal 5-6 of the opposite barrel. The current from the main reaches platinum-plated contact areas 15-16 via leaf springs 17-18 which contribute to the operation of the switches. This power socket may be used in places where the sockets are accessible to children.

Description

DESCRIPTION
La prise de courant à sécurité mécanique de la présente invention, concerne le prises de courant électrique à usage domestique et a pour but d'éviter de rece une décharge électrique lors de l'introduction d'un corps conducteur dans l'un l'autre des trous de la prise.DESCRIPTION
The mechanical safety socket outlet of the present invention relates to electrical socket outlets for domestic use and is intended to avoid receiving an electric shock when introducing a conductive body into one another plug holes.

Les dispositifs connus actuellement pour éviter les conséquences que peuvent e ner les électrocutions, surtout chez les enfants en bas âge qui introduisent s des objets dans les prises, sont du genre " cache -prise manuel", donc peu fia ou du genre "obstructeur des trous" sur prises munies de fiches de terre, ou d d'un mécanisme compliqué, onéreux à réaliser.The devices currently known for avoiding the consequences that e electrocutions can cause, especially in young children who introduce objects into sockets, are of the "manual socket cover" type, therefore little reliable or of the "obstructive type". holes "on sockets fitted with earth plugs, or with a complicated mechanism, expensive to make.


La prise qui fait ltobjet de l'invention n'empêche nullement de glisser quoi q soit dans les orifices, mais cela sans danger pour l'imprudent, le courant s'é sant uniquement sur la borne opposée et à condition d'introduire à fond un obj d'un diamètre sensiblement égal aux broches d'une fiche mâle normalisée.
The socket which is the object of the invention in no way prevents anything from being slipped into the orifices, but that does not harm the imprudent, the current flowing only at the opposite terminal and provided that it is introduced as far as possible an object with a diameter substantially equal to the pins of a standardized male plug.

Le dessin annexé est une vue en coupe du dispositif : fig. 1 etv2 au repos, fi et 4 lorsque les broches d'une fiche mâle sont enfoncées.The attached drawing is a sectional view of the device: fig. 1 etv2 at rest, fi and 4 when the pins of a male plug are pressed.

Lorsque l'on introduit à fond dans le canon ( 1 - 2 ) de la prise un corps don ou non d'un diamètre sensiblement égal aux broches ( 3 - 4 ) d'une fiche mâle lisée, le contact qui alimente la borne ( 5 - 6 ) du canon opposé, s'établit p poussée d'une pastille isolante ( 7-8) en forme de demi-lune qui obstrue d'un environ le passage dans une fente longitudinale le fond de la douille. Cette p est fixée sur une lamelle-ressort (9-tO ) qui établit le contact électrique av réseau au moyen de plots platinés (ii -12 ) à un conducteur (13 - 14 ) qui ali l'autre borne. Le courant électrique du réseau arrive sur des plots platinés par une lamelle-ressort (17-18) qui contribuera au fonctionnement de l'interru
Lors du retrait de ce corps ou broche, ces lamelles-ressorts reviennent à leur position de repos et leur contact est interrompu. Le même dispositif exécute 1 même travail sur l'autre douille.When one introduces fully into the barrel (1 - 2) of the socket a donated body or not of a diameter substantially equal to the pins (3 - 4) of a smoothed male plug, the contact which supplies the terminal ( 5 - 6) of the opposite barrel, p is established by pushing an insulating disc (7-8) in the shape of a half-moon which obstructs the passage in a longitudinal slot by the bottom of the socket. This p is fixed on a spring strip (9-tO) which establishes the electrical contact with the network by means of platinum pads (ii -12) to a conductor (13 - 14) which links the other terminal. The electrical current of the network arrives on pads platinized by a spring leaf (17-18) which will contribute to the functioning of the interrupted
When removing this body or spindle, these leaf springs return to their rest position and their contact is interrupted. The same device performs 1 same job on the other socket.

Pour accroltre encore la sécurité, il est possible de monter en vis -à-vis deu interrupteurs ( comme décrits ci-dessus) sur chacun des canons. Le premier ali tant le second et celui-ci la borne de la douille opposée.To further increase safety, it is possible to mount opposite two switches (as described above) on each of the barrels. The first ali as the second and the latter the terminal of the opposite socket.

Pour établir le courant sur les deux bornes, il faut que les deux broches de 1 mâle soient engagées simultanément et à fond dans les canons.To establish the current on the two terminals, the two pins of 1 male must be engaged simultaneously and fully in the barrels.

Les prises de courant munies de cette protection peuvent être utilisées dans t les endroits où les prises sont accessbiles aux enfants : habitats, lieux publ écoles ..... The sockets fitted with this protection can be used in t places where the sockets are accessible to children: homes, public places, schools, etc.
