  • Publication number: 20040006910
    Abstract: A cockroach-preventing seat comprises a seat body and a cover. A bottom of the seat has a plurality of legs. The periphery of each leg is formed with a plurality of stepped surfaces around the leg. A plurality of conductive pieces are installed around each legs. The conductive pieces are locked to the stepped surfaces. At least one selected leg of the legs is hollowed and internal thereof has a plunge. When an electric device is placed upon the cover; a power wire of the electric device passes through the cover and through a central hole of the plug so as to be clamped therein. Then the plug is inserted into the selected leg so that the power wire is out of the bottom of the selected leg. Thereby, by the design of the leg and the plug, cockroaches will not enter into the seat body along the electric wire.
