Definitions
- the present invention relates to a socket multiplier device, particularly for installations on worktops or the like.
- socket multiplier devices In the field of the supply of electrical material, socket multiplier devices are known which, depending on the nature of the socket, can be provided with an electronic board to manage the flow of data, in the case for example of computer and/or multimedia sockets, or simply have inside electrical connections for the creation of an electrical multiple socket, more commonly termed power strip.
- socket multiplier devices can be designed to be fixable to a wall or to worktops or the like by virtue of means adapted to ensure stable positioning which prevents accidental displacements of the multiplier device, for example as a result of impacts, vibrations, gravity or, more simply, which offers the resistance that is necessary for the insertion and removal of the plugs of the peripheral devices that can be connected to it.
- Another solution is to arrange suckers on the lower portion of the multiplier device that is designed to face the worktop, so as to secure the device on said worktop.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide a socket multiplier device particularly adapted to be installed on worktops of any type and kind and such to overcome the drawbacks of the background art.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a socket multiplier device that can be firmly anchored to the worktop but at the same time allows a straightforward, easy and quick removal without the use of specific accessories.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a socket multiplier device that has low provision costs so as to be competitive on the market.
- Not least object of the present invention is to provide a socket multiplier device that offers the greatest assurances of reliability and functionality during its normal use.
- a socket multiplier device particularly for installations on worktops or the like, which comprises a main body, which forms a plurality of sockets functionally connectable to an external source and associable with a worktop or the like in a detachable manner by virtue of fixing means; characterized in that said fixing means comprise at least one guide which can be associated integrally with said worktop or the like and in that said main body is slidingly associable with said at least one guide along a preferred engagement and disengagement direction.
- the socket multiplier device particularly for installations on worktops or the like, generally designated by the reference numeral 1, comprises a main body 2 which forms a plurality of sockets 3 functionally connectable to an external source by means of one or more connection cables, not shown for the sake of graphic convenience, or by means of wireless telecommunication devices.
- socket means any type of socket that can need a multiplication thereof.
- the sockets 3 can comprise sockets of the electrical type for supplying a device with electric power, sockets of the computer type (such as data exchange ports) and/or of the multimedia type for the transmission of audio and video signals.
- the sockets 3 comprise: a Schuko electrical socket, a USB port (acronym of "Universal Serial Bus”), and a mini-HDMI port (acronym of "High-Definition Multimedia Interface”).
- the device 1 is detachably associable with a worktop or the like 4 by virtue of fixing means 5 which, according to the invention, comprise at least one guide 6 which can be associated integrally with the worktop or the like 4, with the main body 2 which is slidingly associable with the guide 6 along a preferred engagement and disengagement direction 7.
- fixing means 5 which, according to the invention, comprise at least one guide 6 which can be associated integrally with the worktop or the like 4, with the main body 2 which is slidingly associable with the guide 6 along a preferred engagement and disengagement direction 7.
- snap-acting means 8 formed between the guide 6 and the main body 2 for the temporary locking of said main body to the guide 6 and means for the deactivation of the snap-acting means 8 for the disengagement of the main body 2 from the guide 6.
- the snap-acting means 8 comprise at least one first pin 9 which is slidingly accommodated, in contrast with and by virtue of the action of first elastic means 10, in a respective first sliding seat 11 formed on one between the guide 6 and the main body 2 along a sliding direction 12 that is substantially perpendicular to the engagement and disengagement direction 7 so that it can move between a position that protrudes from the first sliding seat 11 and a position that is internal to the first sliding seat 11.
- the snap-acting means 8 comprise a locking hole 13 formed on the other between the guide 6 and the main body 2 so as to correspond to the first pin 9 with the main body 2 associated with the guide 6.
- the first pin 9 is partially contained when arranged in the protruding position and unwanted sliding of the main body 2 with respect to the guide 6 is prevented.
- the locking hole 13 is of the through hole type for the insertion of the deactivation means, which can consist of any tool suitable for the purpose, including the operator's fingers, and for the forced return of the first pin 9 into the first sliding seat 11.
- the two guides 6 define the engagement and disengagement direction 7 in a manner that is substantially parallel to the worktop or the like 4 and there are two first pins 9, one for each guide 6, with two respective first sliding seats 11 which are formed laterally to the two guides 6 in such a manner that the first pins 9 are mutually opposite and mutually spaced.
- the quick expulsion means 17 comprise at least one second pin 18 which is slidingly accommodated, in contrast with and by virtue of the action of second elastic means, similar to the first elastic means 10, in a respective second sliding seat, which is similar to the first sliding seat 11 and is formed on one between the guides 6 and the main body 2 along the engagement and disengagement direction 7, so that it can move between a position that protrudes from the second sliding seat, with the main body 2 uncoupled from the guides 6, and a position that is internal to the second sliding seat, by interference with the other between the guide 6 and the main body 2, with the latter coupled to the guide 6.
- bracket 15 has been fixed on the worktop 4, which, as already partly mentioned, can be the plane defined by a horizontal desk, by a vertical wall or even by an oblique work support, it is possible to engage the main body 2 which supports the sockets 3 by inserting the lower portion 16 on the guides 6 of the bracket 15 until the lower portion 16 abuts against the abutment surfaces 14.
- the socket multiplier device according to the invention achieves the intended aim and objects, since it allows to fix firmly, but at the same time so that it can be detached simply and rapidly, a socket multiplier on a worktop regardless of the inclination thereof.
- socket multiplier device particularly for installations on worktops or the like, thus conceived is susceptible of numerous modifications and variations, all of which are within the scope of the accompanying claims.
- the materials used, as well as the contingent shapes and dimensions may be any according to the requirements and the state of the art.
