Abstract: The invention provides an electrical power outlet, especially for connecting, to the electrical circuit of a motor vehicle, an appliance or an accessory comprising a male plug which is the complement of the outlet, of the type comprising a body made of an insulating material which comprises a cylindrical container of vertical axis capable of accommodating the body which is the complement of the male plug, and which bears means for electrically connecting the outlet to an electrical power circuit of the vehicle, wherein the insulating body comprises a cavity for an illumination lamp, and bears means for electrically connecting the lamp to an electrical circuit of the vehicle.

Abstract: A motor vehicle cigar lighter of the luminous type comprises a lighter body which is a receptacle for a luminous and removable heating plug which consists of a fixed part and a moving part. The moving part is displaceable axially in the fixed part. The moving part includes a push button and a light guide for propagating light received by it from an external light source when the plug is in position in the body. The light guide is an element of the fixed part of the heating plug, and surrounds the push button.

Abstract: The invention provides an electrical power outlet (30), especially for connecting, to the electrical circuit of a motor vehicle, an appliance or an accessory comprising a male plug which is the complement of the outlet, of the type comprising a body (32) made of an insulating material which comprises a cylindrical container (44) of vertical axis (A1) capable of accommodating the body which is the complement of the male plug, and which bears means (92, P2, L2, L1) for electrically connecting the outlet to an electrical power circuit of the vehicle, characterized in that the insulating body (32) comprises a cavity (46) for an illumination lamp (52), and bears means (P1, L1, P3, L3) for electrically connecting the lamp (52) to an electrical circuit of the vehicle.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cigar lighter, especially for a motor vehicle, comprising a heating body and a knob intended to be engaged in the heating body, this knob including a heating resistance element located in a cup and able to be supplied with electricity via a supply bimetallic strip in contact with the cup when the knob is pushed in into a heating position, and a safety device maintaining electrical contact with the cup, whatever the shape of the supply bimetallic strip, in order to continue to supply the heating resistance element as long as the knob is pushed in into the heating body in heating position, in which the electrical contact between the safety device and the cup is formed on the flank of the outer face of the cup.

Abstract: A control device with several stable positions, has a cam and a finger, the finger traveling along a cam track around the cam, when the finger and the cam are moved with respect to one another in translation. The cam track has curvature about an axis of rotation parallel to the axis of the translation to move the finger and the cam in rotation with respect to one another. The finger and the cam each are a cylindrical ring, these two rings being coaxial and capable of a rotational movement with respect to one another, along the axis of rotation.
