Abstract: An electrical apparatus that can be fixed to a supporting frame having a mounting window to receive the electrical apparatus includes a main body having a substantially box-like shape and first fixing elements provided on first and second opposite sides of the body to engage with corresponding second fixing elements the frame and facing the mounting window. The first fixing elements include guiding fixing elements to permit axial and guided sliding of electrical apparatus with respect to the frame in inserting the apparatus into the mounting window. The first fixing elements further include snap-in fixing elements to block axial sliding of the electrical apparatus with respect to the frame once a predetermined snap-in position has been reached.

Abstract: The present invention refers to a support frame (2) for wall-mounting at least one electrical apparatus, the frame (2) comprising:—a frame body (7) fixable to the wall and developing about a window (9) defining a mounting seat adapted for receiving and holding said at least one electrical apparatus; and—fixing means (12) for removably fixing a cover plate (3) to the support frame (2). The support frame (2) is characterised in that the fixing means includes at least one fixing channel (12) exhibiting an end jointed to an opening (13) obtained in the frame body (7), the fixing channel (12) being such as to be capable of receiving, through the opening (13), a corresponding fixing tongue (4), provided in the cover plate (3), the fixing channel (12) including therein relief means (14) that can face a surface (31) of the tongue (4) and pushing means (20, 21) adapted for acting on the fixing tongue (4) for engaging pressure-wise said surface (31) of the tongue against said relief means (14) of the channel (12).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a push-button switch comprising: a box-like supporting structure (2) defining an inner chamber (8), the box-like structure (2) having at least one opening (9) communicating with the inner room (8) and having an opening axis (Z-Z); a push-button (21) to be matched with the supporting structure (2) at said opening (9); mechanical coupling means (22) for coupling the push-button (21) to said structure (2) such that the push-button (21) is allowed to be fastened to the supporting structure (2) while being movable relative thereto in a direction substantially parallel to the opening axis (Z-Z). The push-button switch is characterized in that the mechanical coupling means include a holding and guide frame (22) for the push-button (21), which can be fixed to the supporting structure (2) and can be interposed between the push-button (21) and the structure (2).

Abstract: Electrical apparatus (1) that can be fixed to a supporting frame (2) provided with a mounting window (22) suitable to receive said electrical apparatus (1), the electrical apparatus (1) comprising: —a main body having a substantially box-like shape; and—first fixing elements (8,9,10) provided on a first (3) and a second (4) opposite side of said box-like body to engage with corresponding second fixing elements (27, 28, 29) provided on said frame (2) and facing said mounting window (22). The first fixing elements (8, 9, 10) of the electrical apparatus (1) include: —guiding fixing elements (8,9) such as to permit axial and guided sliding of said electrical apparatus (1) respect to said frame (2) in inserting said apparatus (1) into said mounting window (22); —snap-in fixing elements (10) suitable to block said axial sliding of said electrical apparatus (1) respect to said frame (2) once a predetermined snap-in position has been reached.

Abstract: Shutter device for closing off the compartments of a power socket that has a live aperture and a neutral aperture in a front plate. The shutter device comprises a shutter piece that moves translationally between a rest position, in which the live and neutral apertures are closed, and an operational position in which they are not closed. The shutter piece comprises two arms positioned against the live and neutral apertures in the rest position and inclined at an angle to the direction of translation of the shutter piece.

Abstract: A safety device for shielding off the receptacles of an electric current tap or socket comprises a shutter member guided for sliding movement inside a body against the bias of a spring. The shutter member is disposed between tap holes in a forward cover intended for receiving pins of an electric plug and the tap receptacles. The shutter member is accommodated within the body in tilting support relationship with a back wall of said body which has two oppositely pitched surfaces set at a slight inclination angle which are adapted for blocking the shutter member against sliding movement when a portion thereof is thrust against one of the surfaces.

Abstract: An apparatus with remote control features for tripping off magnetothermal switches comprises at least one switch having a central core supporting trip-off linkages wherein a voltmeter coil is housed with each switch being connected to a respective one, e.g. a lamp, of user electric appliances.The apparatus also comprises a pushbutton control connected to each voltmeter coil in each magnetothermal switch for remotely and simultaneously operating the trip-off linkages to thus turn off simultaneously each electric appliance, while enabling function regaining by operating the corresponding switch locally.
