"MOBILE INTERFACE PLUG-MULTI-FUNCTIONAL PLUG FOR

WALL BOX, CEILING, AND / OR OTHER POINT OF

CONVENTIONAL SUPPORT OR NOT "

FIELD OF INVENTION

The present invention relates to a new type of plug and socket capable of engaging and / or electrical connection between lighting fixtures and / or other types of devices and the ceiling, wall, and / or any junction box. another type of unconventional media.

Composed of mechanisms that perform manual coupling and disengagement, the invention consists of a new type of interface that promotes free mobility of the object to be installed, automatically activates and deactivates the clamping and electrical connection simultaneously to the coupling and disengagement, it supports the weight of an object, adapts to various models of equipment and features an ergonomic layout that is accessible to any user. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

In the not too distant past, the work routine of electrical installers was not much different from today. Fifty years ago, lighting equipment installation was done only by expert technicians in a thorough, detailed and very slow manner. It takes time to analyze under our current patterns of time, after all, with the development of areas such as informatics and electronics and, with the improvement and diffusion of the internet, the contemporary notions of time and space have changed drastically. Modern life has added a number of electro-electronic equipment to our daily lives that have become indispensable to our daily actions, which have definitely changed the way we think about the efficiency of commercial and residential services.

Despite all the technological developments we have been through over the past decades, no significant functional or ergonomic improvements have been developed for the installation operation of a lighting equipment to a ceiling and / or wall pass-through box, today the procedures for this service remain the same for 50 years. In the current operating arrangement, depending on the type of equipment, the installer will have at least three to four operations to perform; Attach one of the support tools to the crowbar lock, cross lock, nipple lock or the like to wait for the junction box, attach the ceiling light or the canopy to one of these tools, connect the equipment wires to the electrical terminals wiring, insulation and depending on the model, attach the luminaire and / or chandelier to the supporting instruments of the ceiling or canopy.

Although this provision has been successfully employed since the beginning of the last century, such operational provisions applied to the technological demands and daily life of modern life have some disadvantages. Among the disadvantages of the state of the art, one can cite the fact that precarious operating clamping tools, the absence of an electrical connection unit, the lack of functional resources to meet current service needs and the lack of a project ergonomic. In the ergonomic scope, the current state of the art does not favor the installer, the tools used are elementary instruments that in practice, instead of helping or protecting, make accessibility difficult, it requires the installer to do all the operation in unfavorable circumstances, such as carrying and manipulate, supplements and tools for a considerable time on a ladder. In addition to being unproductive, this provision does not protect the physical integrity of the installer, exposes you to the risk of electric shock and shock, or forces you to hire specialized services.

In the commercial sphere, the application of products specific to the lighting energy points or the like, such as data transmission, image capture, connectivity among others, are compromised by the lack of options for fixing, electrical connection, cable routing and the ergonomic conditions mentioned above. As the only support option available on the market, these instruments, rather than providing advantages and solutions, primary features make it difficult and therefore detract from the usability of any new product. The lack of a satisfactory device that offers up-to-date functional options and simplifies installation operation whether it is to exchange, relocate or maintain equipment is one of the disadvantages of the current state of the art which makes it commercially unviable on many occasions.

These limiting circumstances motivated the lighting industry to experiment with new fixation instruments, but the solutions found were either specific, targeted at specific products or just to correct technical barriers that surrounded the creation of more elaborate products. Although the lighting industry has taken a small step in this direction, the solution to this problem remains open, yet to be resolved.

The problem that has arisen so far is that there is no tool capable of facilitating operational action and expanding limited functional resources. The object of this invention created a platform that unites in one operational structure the two main points of interest, designed a new ergonomic order for a new kind of interface that works more simply than the installation of a lamp to a socket.

As a differential, it has developed two complementary modular structures that combined with electromechanical features perform the coupling and / or disengagement and support the weight of the installed equipment. Composed of the Socket Module (1) female upper part, housed the junction box and, by the Plug Module (36) male lower part, fixed to the equipment to be installed, the electromechanical design of this invention created a structure Functional design that promotes free mobility of the object when fixed activates, when released automatically deactivates the electric current, supports the object, adapts to various types of equipment and has an ergonomic layout accessible to any user.

The ergonomic, functional and aesthetic concept introduced in this invention suggests another practice for installing equipment. The consumer, whether private, company or government, when receiving the first or old property, whether for purchase or rent, finds the open boxes with exposed wires, precariously arranged to meet only the temporary lighting service. In this case, if we consider the services of this invention as indispensable utensils, the buildings of standard use such as switches and sockets incorporated into the real estate, the owner or tenant will have the box organized, sealed by Module Outlet (1), except any unwanted electrical shock or short circuit. With the Plug Module (36) coming from the shop previously installed to the equipment, the cumbersome installation task will become an extremely practical activity, without the need for additional tools or wires, lay people without electrical knowledge can do The operation in such a simple way as the appliance is to reach, plug in and use.

As ratified above, the present invention takes it a step further, promotes technological upgrading for power carriers, solves ergonomic problems that make it impossible for the user to install, upgrades the system by expanding possibilities for coupling, wiring and cabling, adds services and value to old and new products and opens up a work front for electrical professionals with the possible retrofit in lighting equipment in use in homes.

Including the following areas of services and products, but not Excluding others, the present invention is intended for construction, marine, automotive, aeronautics, building automation, and general utility products. Favored services include lighting, control, security, signaling, information and others. Cold light, led, incandescent among others such as chandeliers, lamps, sconces, light panels, indoor media, computer monitors, televisions, security cameras, standalone equipment (battery) can make use of this new tool. In addition to the functional peculiarities cited above, the electromechanical device of this invention may also be employed as a movable lock for various utensils requiring energized or non-energized movable support.

Industry, retail consumers, whether lay or professional such as designers from various fields, architects, decorators, light designers, electricians and / or maintenance and cleaning companies will benefit from this new functionality. Using this new tool will make the installation and / or maintenance task an extremely simple activity, the operation to remove and / or allocate the equipment for testing, changing, repositioning, restoring, cleaning will be done in a practical way, Safe and comfortable.
