Abstract: An in-floor electrical fitting has a lower body that includes two half-bodies made of intumescent material. Each half-body includes a removable access wall that is also made of intumescent material and that is inserted into slots formed in the half-body. The removable access wall has at least one reduced-thickness section that can be broken off from the removable access wall to create a passageway through the removable access wall. During installation, the two access walls can be removed to allow an installer to a lay a conduit that will pass through the passageway through each access wall when the access walls are reinserted. An installer can pass power wires from one small compartment to another through the conduit while complying with code requirements calling for the separation of power and data cables.

Abstract: Provided is a wall grommet, which can be installed through the surfaces of walls to route wiring in the walls' interior spaces. In particular, the wall grommet is configured for running power cords inside walls and presenting the electrical connectors of a power cord in a manner such that power cords are hidden from view. The grommet may comprise a housing, which defines an interior space that is adapted to hold either the female connector or male connector of a power cord. The housing may be configured to enclose and secure the electrical connector of the power cord in the housing.

Abstract: According to the present disclosure, a cover assembly for an in-floor fitting includes an upper ring, a lower ring connectable to a housing configured to accommodate electrical receptacles, and a flange member clamped between the upper ring and the lower ring. The flange member extends radially outward from the upper ring and lower ring and is configured to support the in-floor fitting on a surface.

Abstract: A portable charger tray includes an internal rechargeable power supply and a first wireless power transmitter connected to the internal rechargeable power supply for wirelessly charging a portable electronic device. A wireless power charging system includes the portable charger tray for wirelessly charging the portable electronic device and a dock for charging the internal rechargeable power supply of the portable charger tray.

Abstract: An electrical box includes a body, a cover that is movable relative to the body, and an electrical connection point that is mounted to the cover. The electrical connection point may be one or more of an electrical receptacle, a data jack, and/or the like. The cover may be attached to the body by a sliding hinge connection or a sliding pin connection that allows the cover to rotate relative to the body as well as translate relative to the body. An air pocket substantially filling a compartment in the cover is maintained during an opening or closing of the electrical box.

Abstract: An electrical pop out device has a shroud and an outlet housing. The outlet housing is sized to be placed inside the shroud. A guidance mechanism connects the outlet housing with the shroud. The guidance mechanism includes multiple rack gears and multiple pinion gears. The outlet housing is moveable with respect to the shroud along a direction defined by the rack gear. A spring connector electrically couples the shroud to the outlet housing.

Abstract: A customizable bus system includes a system module containing one or more accessory modules and is easily mounted along a surface in a workspace, such as the underside of a cabinet. The accessory modules provide conveniently located utility services and applications such as power, lighting or media connections, and may be interchanged within the bus system to provide particular services and applications where they are needed most. Additionally, the bus system may include a control center for controlling the operation of one or more of the accessory modules, such as manually or automatically. The bus system may also include multiple housings that are functionally linked, such as by a connector module having couplings for mechanically linking with housings and providing electrical or other connectivity between the housings.

Abstract: A floor box assembly includes a floor box, a mounting plate, a below-floor insulation kit, and an intumescent stem. When the floor box is installed on a floor deck having flutes and valleys, the mounting plate straddles one or more valleys and supports the floor box. The below-floor insulation kit closes off the flutes adjacent to the valley straddled by the mounting plate, and the intumescent stem penetrates the floor deck at the bottom of the valley. When installed, the floor box assembly is held together by attachment fasteners extending from the mounting plate through the floor deck and the below-floor insulation kit.
