Aopiiootion noa' september- 1a, 1905. lsorioi No. 279.025.
To @ZZ whom t may concern.' I .De it known that I, SILAs D. SLooUM, a citizen of the United States, residing at Alexandria, in the county of Alexandria andy improvements in combined outlet-boxes for molding and iron-armored conduits, and comprises means whereby a junction-box may be adapted to fit over moldings of various sizes;
. and it consists in the formation of a box with a cut-away portion to receive the molding and in the provision of a side, either integral with the top or separate therefrom, adapted to fit over different sizes of moldings to form a complete closure. l
My invention is illustrated-in the accompanying drawings, which, with the letters of reference marked thereon, form a part of this application, and in which similar letters of reference indicate like parts in the views, in which- Figure l is a perspective view of a box made in accordance with my invention. ,fF ig. 2 is a perspective view of a cover for 'the box, showing an integral side with a recessedl ortion adapted to fit over a molding over W 'ch a box fits. Figs. 3, 4, and 5 are perspective views showing recessed sides which are separate from the cover and adapted to fit over moldings of different sizes, and Fig. 6 -is an edge view of one of said sides.
Reference' now being had to the details of the drawings by letter, A designates an outlet-box having disk sections B therein, which are adapted to be removed from the box when it is desired to pass a conduit through the wall of the latter, and C designates a cover having perforations C therein for the' reception of screws, which are adapted to hold the cover to the box by passing through apertures in the lugs A. One wall of the box and aportion of thebottom is cut away, as at E, the marginal outline of said aperture being such as to receive the-ordinary wooden molding, which is utilized for protecting electric wiring, and in Fig. 2 of the drawings I have shown kan integral side D projecting from the cover and having a recess D', which is rectangular in outline and has a flange D2 about' its marginal edge, said recess being adapted to fit .down overa molding and close the space intermediate the molding and the marginal edge of the recess E formed in the side and bottom of the box. Apertures d are formed in the side Dand are adapted to register with the apertures e formed in the side of the box to receive screws, whereby the o side may be securely held over a molding.y
Referring to Figs. 3, 4, and 5 of the drawings will be seen plates H, H', and H2, which are made separate from the cover and each having a distinct sizeof recessed portion K' therein to fit moldings of dierent sizes, and each of said plates is provided withelongated slots Q to allow for the adjustment of the plate, allowing the same to be raised and 1owered,.as may be desired, and a flange N about each rectangular outlined recess is adapted to bear against the faces of the molding to securely close the space intermediate the molding and the marginal outlines of the recesses. l
From tho forogoiog it will bo obsorv'od ihoo by the provision of a box for molding and iron armored conduit,,as shown and described, a simple and efficient means is afforded whereby plates'having different-sized recesses therein may be utilized in adaptinga box to receive moldings of various sizes, the recesses. in the plates securely closing the space intermediate the molding and the marginal outlineof the recesses.
Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-
1. An outlet-box for molding and iron-armored conduit, having a portion of the bottom and side of the box cut away to receive a molding, and a recessed plate designed to fit over a molding aiidbev-fastened to the side of said box, as set forth.
2. An outlet-box for molding and iron-armored conduit, having a portion of the bottom and side cut away to receive a molding, a removable plate adapted to be fastened to the sideof the box which is cut away andv having a recess formed therein, adapted to I OO,
los...l
conform to and fit about the faces ofa mold-v ing, as set forth. y
3. Anoutlet-box for molding and iron-arf mored conduit, having a portion of the bottom and side eut away to receive a molding, a removable plate adapted to be fastened to the side of the box which is cut away, and
having a recess formed therein, adapted to conform to and fit about the faces of a molding, the recess in said plate having an angled flange about its marginal edge, as set forth.-
4. An outlet-box for molding and 'iron-armored conduit, having a cut-away portion in the bottom of one of said sides to receive a molding, a plate having a recess formed therein, adapted to iit about a molding and designed to be adjustably held upon the cutaway side of the box, as set forth.
In testimony whereof I hereunto affix' my signature in the presence of two witnesses.
