Applioationjiled September 14. 1905. Serial No. 278.427.
To all-\whom it may concern;
Be it known that I, GEORGE A. LUTZ, a citi zen of theUnited States, residin in New York city, borough of Brooklyn,- ew York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements inMeans for Holding Rece tacles and the Like to Conduits, of which the ollowingris a s ecification.
he ject of. this invention is to detachably connect receptacles, caps, and analogousoutlet-fittings upon conduits for electric conductors, and particularly to conduits havingremovable covers; and the invention is especially ap licable foruse with receptacles, caps, and t e like that are made of insulating materiaL- I The invention consists in the novel details of improvement that will .be more'fully'hereinafter set forth,
} and then pointed out in the claims. 1
Reference is to be had to the accompanylin%drawings, forming parthereof, whereinigure 1 is an end view of a receptacle unounted upon a conduit in accordance with this invention. Fig. 2. is a longitudinal section on the line 2 2 in Fig. 1, and Fig. 3 is a perspective view of the same. In the accompanying drawings, in which similar numerals of reference indicate corresponding parts in'the several views, the nu meral l indicates a conduit havin one side open and provided with a removab e cover or covers 1' (shown fitting in grooved portions 1 inthe side walls of the conduit,) and at 2 is a ea or receptacle fitting over or upon the .duit, the cap 2 having lugs or rojections 2 at its ends that project into t e conduit in line'with-the corresponding cover 1 whereby the movement of the cover into the cap or receptacle is'limited, the lugs thereby acting as stops. At 3 are strips in the nature of li s or projections projecting outwardly tower the covers 1 from the lugs-2 being shown attached to the ca by screws or the like 4, that pass through ho es 1n the cap and thread into the lips or strips 3. As a means for holding the lips or strips 3 in proper position upon the their under surfaces with sockets or recesses 2, inwhich the li s or strips, 3 fit,whereby....
lip extending outwardly to retain the .cap'
the latter arekept om turn ngand are maintained projecting outwardly or toward the covers 1*. The cap 2 may bemade oi insulating material, such as porcelain, and the h s or stri s 3 may be made of metal, alti iough the ips 3 could be made integral with the material of the cap and lugs; but by having the lips 3 made of metal and secured to that are integral with the cap is overcome? When the cap is placed u on the conduit, the covers 1 may be pus'he over the lips or stri s 3 and into on agement with the lugs 2", as s own'at the le t in Fig. 2, whereby the cap is de'tachably held u on the conduit, and the cap may be removed f'rom the conduit by sliding back or moving the covers 1 away from the lips 3. v
The dev1ce shown is in the form of a recep table in which the base is indicated at 5 1n F g. 2, which base may be made of insulating material, such as porcelain, and the cap 2 overlies the base in well-known manner, the base being provided with any suitable electrical connections, (indicated generally at 6 7 Having now described my invention, what I claim is 1. The combination of a conduit provided with a movable cover, with a cap made of insulating material and having a lip projecting outwardly engagin the cover to retain the cap in place u on the conduit. I T2. The com ination of a conduit having a 'movable cover, with a cap, a lip carried by the cap to engage the cover, and means for holding the lip upon the cap.
3. The combination of a conduit rovided with a movable cover, with a cap iaving a ain receiving said conduit, said cap having a to en age the cover to retain the cap upon t e con uit.
