'UNITED sTATEs PATENT oEEioE.
AUGUST H. SCHNEIDER, OF SYRACUSE, NEW YORK, ASSIGNOR TO` CROUSE-HINDS COMPANY, OF SYRACUSE, NEW YORK, A CORPORATION OF NEW YORK.
CONDUIIT OUTLET-BOX.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented J an. 6, 1920.
Application filed February 7, 1916. Serial No. 76,750.
of Syracuse, in the county of Onondaga and State of New York, have invented a certain new and useful Conduit Outlet-Box, of which the following is a specification.
This invention relates to conduit outlet boxes, and has for its object a conduit outlet box designed to be used in a position where it is exposed to the weather, Whichbox is composed of separable sections, joined together in a particularly simple and efficient manner, so that the joint between the sections is weather tight; and the invention 'consists'in the combinations and constructions hereinafter set forth and claimed.
In describing this invention, reference is had to the accompanying drawings in which like characters designate corresponding parts in all the views.
Figure l is an elevation, partly broken away, of one form of my conduit outlet box,
the contiguous portion of a conduit beingr also shown.
Fig. 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of' parts seen in Fig. 1.
Fig. 3 is an elevation looking upwardly in Fig. 1, the conduit being removed.
Fig. 4 is an inner face view ofv one of the sections of this conduit outlet4 box.
Fig-.5 is a detail view of a portion of the means for coupling a conduit to the box.
Fig. 6 is a longitudinal sectiontaken centrally of Fig. 5. y
This conduit outlet box comprises, generally, a body open at one side and divided into two sections, the dividing line extending in aplane at an angle to the plane of the open side of the box, the sections being formed with flanges lextending the length of the dividing line and terminating at both ends near the open side, the flanges being shaped so that they engage or interlock by movement of one section in a direction parallel to the plane of the dividing line. As here shown, one ofthe sections is formed with an outwardly extending flange, and the other section is formed with an outwardly extending flange bent around the former flange to form a channel which channel is open at its ends so that the sections may be moved into and out of interlocking engagement by a movement in a direction parallel to the plane containing the dividing line.
8 is the outwardly extending flange on one of the sections as the section 3, which flange extends along the line of division 5 and terminates near the lower edge or the open side, and 9 is the flange formed on the section 4, which flange 9 also extends along the line of vdivision 5 and abuts against the flange'S, the
of the section 3, so that a channel is formed in which the flange 8 is located. The portion 10 ofthe flange 9 and also the portion extending across the edge of the flange 8 are spaced apart. from said flange 8, and the edge of said portion 10 is` also spaced apart, slightly at 11 from the top of the body' l`- The flange 8 terminates at its lower ends in outwardly extending lugs 12, and the flange 9 terminates in housings 13 which inclose the to the lugs by fastening members 14" extending through the walls of the lhousings 13 and into the lugs'12.
The section 3 is also formed with a laterally extending nipple l5 for connection lto a conduit 16 inclosing the service wires. The
What I claim 1s:
1. A conduit outlet box including a body open at one side and divided into two sections, the dividing line between the sections being located in a plane intersecting the side and one of the sections being provided with means individual thereto and remote from the dividing line with a conduit, the sections the dividing lineand teropen side, oney flange being the other and the flanges ing edges along minating at the shaped to house being shaped to interlock by a sliding movegated body open at one side ment of one of the sections-in a direction parallel tothe plane of the dividing line, substantially as and for` the purpose set forth.
2. A conduit outlet box including an elonand divided.
into two lengthwise sections, the dividing of Onondaga, and .State of New line of the sections being located in a plane intersecting the plane ofthe open side and extending lengthwise thereof, one of the sec- Ations being provided with a nipple extending laterally from its lengthwise side for connection with an electric conduit, the sections being provided 'with flanges at their opposing edges, the flange of one of said sections extending outwardly and the flange of the other of said sections including an outwardly extending portion abutting against the former flange and a hooded portion extending over the edge ofthe former flange and then inwardly onto the outer surface of the section on which the former flange is provided thereby housing the former flange, pose described.
3. A conduit outlet box comprising a body open at one side and being divided into two sections, the dividing line extending in a plane at an angle to the plane of the open side, one of the sections being formed with v ,a' flange extending along the length of the dividing line land terminating at its endsl near said open side, the flange having laterally extending lugs at its ends and the other section having a flange extending along the line of division and having a portion abutting against the former flange and a portion extending over the edge of the former flange and inwardly toward the outer face ofthe body, the latter flange forming a channel for receiving the former flange and the latter flange widening atiits ends and forming housings inclosing said lugs, and fastening substantially as and for the purmeans extending through a Wall of the housy ings and into the lugs, substantially as and dfor the purpose described.
In testimony `whereof, I have hereunto s1gned my name, at Syracuse, in the county York, this 10th day of September, '1915.
AUGUST H. SCHNEIDER.
