Definitions

  • Electric automatic safety devices are generally known, but hitherto in domestic 1nstallations fuses have almost exclusively been used for protecting electric lines.
  • Fig. 1 is the vertica section through the safety device according to the 1nvent1on.
  • Figs. 2 and 3 are cross sections along line A-B, seen in the direction of the arrows 2, 3.
  • Figs. 4 and 5 are cross sections on line A-B seen in the direction of the arrows 4, 5.
  • a is the casin of the safety device which is generally ma e of lnsulating material and which extends 1nto a socket which is screwed-in;
  • b is a cover with a c lindrical projecting part which is rotatab y arranged in the casing.
  • the 26 latter is extended to form a contact strip at which is arranged on the circumference of the c lindrical adjoining or rojectmg part.
  • a contact strip d is arranged which may be formed b a piece of wire leadin down to the meta part of the socket an conductively connected with it.
  • This contact strip may be covered towards the. interior -by an insulating strip i.
  • a c linder 0 formed of insulatin material an rotatable about a pin and aving a recess or cavity for receiving a tension spring f.
  • This rin f is fixed with the one end to the cylin er 0 and with the other end to a point in the casing a, for instance, by a plate 4, which is secured in the casing a against rm tation.
