Application filed February 1' To all whom may mm.-
Be it known that l, CLARENCE D. PLATT, e citizen of the United States of America, residing at Bridgeport, Feirfielcl County, Connecticut, have invented s new ens useiul Electrical (jut-Gut, of which the follow inn is e specification.
t/ly invention relates to what are con"- neonly termed cut-outs, receptacles etc, and particularly to olevices having what are termed screw shells for receiving fuse plugs, lsrnps, connectors, etc.
in certain types of these devices safety inspectors enol engineers requir that the terminal and! live parts he covered or protected so that there is no olsnger of sociclents-l contact and the consequent (i to life encl property. Some menuiect less provide osses which support the orinci: parts, and covers for protecting the in portions: These covers are usually remove his to facilitate wiring, entl lazy or careless worlrrnen frequently tail to r l th covers In such cases, the live s rein exposed. ll propose to make it riitiicult use such cut-outs without the covers an to leave parts in such condition sh-sence of the cover will serve as inclicetion that the cut-out is not in proper conui For tne shove pirrpose rnount 3h shell so that when the ere essernhlegl sncl protected the plug or ease or connector may be readily inser or removeci in the ususl insnner, but in case the cover is missing, the screw socket turn freely on its support and thus inc very olitlicult to insert the plug or form of connector as the screw socket wit turn around freely with the pin .ifhis loose conclition will he noticeable the most casual observer.
Figure l is e plan view of one cut out erchodyin the improvern invention, one or covers 583131 ewsv and one of the screw shells 2 is an edge view enol partied l ig. 3 is en explotleclview a; ell and connecting parts.
