Abstract

(57) [Summary] [PROBLEMS] To prevent a plug inserted into a plug insertion portion of an outlet body from protruding from a wall surface. In addition, dust is prevented from collecting between the plug and the plug insertion portion. SOLUTION: An outlet main body 5 is fixed to a rear vertical wall 4 of a box-shaped cover 1 provided with fixing projections 2 and 2 for fixing to a wall surface at an outer edge of an opening 1a. Also, the upper part 4a of the rear side vertical wall 4 is inclined, and the outlet main body 5 is fixed to this part so that the plug insertion part 5a faces obliquely downward. Further, the box-shaped cover 1 is connected to the plug insertion portion 5 through the opening 1a.
The length up to a is longer than the length of the plug.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Technical field to which the invention belongs]

 The present invention relates to an outlet installed on a wall, and more specifically, an outlet installed on a wall so that a plug insertion portion of the outlet body is located in the wall so that a plug inserted into the outlet does not protrude from the wall. Involved in installation type outlets.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In a conventional outlet, as shown in FIG. 4, a plug insertion portion 102 of an outlet main body 101 is located on substantially the same plane as a wall surface 103 of a building.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the invention]

 For this reason, a protrusion is generated from the dividing wall 103 having the length L of the plug 104 inserted into the plug insertion portion 102 of the outlet main body 101.

[0004] However, if such protrusions occur, it is impossible to place furniture or the like as close as possible to the wall surface 103. That is, there must be a gap between the furniture or the like and the wall surface 103 for the length of the plug 104, thereby reducing the effective space of the room. Also, if furniture and the like are placed diagonally, the appearance will be poor.

When the plug insertion portion 102 of the outlet main body 101 is substantially flush with the wall surface 103 of the building as described above, a gap A between the plug 104 and the plug insertion portion 102 of the outlet main body is formed. Dust enters and easily accumulates on the insertion blade 104a of the plug 104. The accumulated dust is burned by the heat, causing a fire.

Further, since the conventional outlet is perpendicular to the wall 103, the plug 104 inserted into the outlet also travels at a right angle to the wall 103. Therefore, when the cord 105 connected to the plug 104 hangs down by its own weight, its end B is bent at an acute angle.

[0007] The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and has a plug insertion portion of an outlet body located in a wall of a building so that a plug inserted therein does not protrude from the wall. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a wall-mounted outlet capable of solving all of the above problems.

[0008]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 Therefore, the gist of the present invention is to fix the outlet main body to the deep vertical wall on the back side of the box-shaped cover provided with a projection for fixing to the wall at the outer edge of the opening, and to connect the box-shaped cover to the opening. This is an in-wall type outlet where the length from the plug to the plug insertion part of the outlet body is equal to or longer than the length of the plug.

[0009] In the above configuration, the upper part of the rear vertical wall of the box-shaped cover may be inclined to fix the outlet main body to this portion, so that the plug insertion portion faces obliquely downward.

[0010]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view, FIG. 2 is a front view, and FIG. 3 is a side sectional view of a state where the apparatus is installed on a wall surface.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a box-shaped cover. The box-shaped cover 1 is integrally provided with projections 2 and 2 for fixing to the wall surface at the outer edge of the opening 1a. Further, fixing screw insertion holes 3, 3 are formed in the fixing projections 2, 2 on the wall surface.

The upper part 4 a of the rear vertical wall 4 of the box-shaped cover 1 is inclined. In the present embodiment, the upper part 4a of the rear side vertical wall 4 is inclined, but may be kept vertical though not shown.

The outlet main body 5 is fixed to the inclined upper part 4 a of the rear vertical wall 4 of the box-shaped cover 1. As a result, the plug insertion portion 5a of the outlet main body 5 faces obliquely downward.

Further, the length of the box-shaped cover 1 from the opening 1 a to the plug insertion portion 5 a of the outlet main body 5 is longer than the length of the plug 6.

Thus, in order to install the outlet of the present embodiment on the wall of a building, first, a recess W ′ is provided at a location on the wall W where the outlet is to be installed, and the outlet main body 5 is fixed to the recess W ′. The shape cover 1 is fitted. Finally, it is fixed with a set screw 7.

[0016]

[Effect of the invention]

 The present invention is configured as described above, and the plug insertion portion of the outlet body is located in the wall surface of the building, and the plug insertion portion is inserted more than the length of the plug than the wall surface. The plug does not protrude from the wall. Therefore, the inconvenience caused by the large protrusion of the plug from the wall as in the related art can be solved.

Further, since the plug insertion portion of the outlet body is located at a position retracted from the wall surface, even if dust floats along the wall surface due to convection of the room air, there is a small possibility that the dust enters the box-shaped cover. Therefore, the probability that dust accumulates between the plug insertion portion of the outlet body and the plug inserted therein is reduced.

In the case where the upper portion of the vertical wall on the far side of the box-shaped cover is inclined, and the outlet main body is fixed to the inclined portion, and the plug insertion portion is directed obliquely downward, the box-shaped cover is temporarily formed. Even if dust gets into the cover and comes into contact with the plug insertion portion, it is easy to flow down due to the inclination, and therefore, the probability of dust accumulation can be reduced.

Further, since the plug inserted into the plug insertion portion of the outlet main body is completely contained in the box-shaped cover, even if the cord connected to the plug hangs down by its own weight, the end thereof has an acute angle like a conventional plug. It will not bend. Also, this point is more effective when the upper part of the vertical wall on the back side of the box-shaped cover is inclined and the outlet body is fixed to this inclined part.
