  • Adaptor for feeding current to electrical contact rails
    Patent number: 3933403
    Abstract: An adaptor, for insertion into a power distribution rail to feed current to the rail, comprises a housing which is shaped and dimensioned to permit the adaptor to be inserted into the open bottom of the rail in a predetermined orientation relative to the rail and thereafter to be rotated through a limited angle between laterally spaced facing edges of opposing webs in the rail to turn supporting clips extending from the adaptor into support channels in the rail and to effect electrical contact between the adaptor and conductors carried by the rail. The adaptor housing comprises a pair of diametrically opposed cylindrical quadrants spaced from one another by a diametrical distance less than the distance between the laterally spaced facing edges of the rail web.
