AN IMPROVED BODY FOR ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC SWITCH

The invention relates to an improved body for electrical/electronic switch more particular the invention relates to an improved body for electrical/electronic switch with a view to give different colour combination of flap as well as to conceal the
fastening screw.

The conventional installation of electrical switch, fuse and indicator are individually

installed with a very little chance to match with the panel. Today's interior decorations
has changed the concept all together and wants to change frequently the door
pannel thereby there is need to develop electrical Switch, Sockets, Fuses and Indicators
which will conceal those visualable screw and to make the product more attractive by
i: means of colourful flap to match with the pannel. The conceal varing system which
advent the box type body structure to fitt into the grooves in the pannel and fixed
by screwing means thereby only the front surface of the body with switched
sockets as visionable on the pannel.
The type of switches with flaps of any colour is available in the market wherein the body of the switches are of the box type structure having one side open with
plurality of grooves for accomdating the brass part switch part contianing in a
box type moulded back piece which will be fixed the said body having a raised
platform sorrourding the body and a raised platform on the surface with plurality
of grooves. A flap member of any colour is pressed fit inside the periferial
projections which is pressed fit by inter locking means. The present invention differs
from the aforesaid product wherein a moulded front piece with flat face side having
box type grooVe with plurality to hole to accomdate the brass parts of the switch
inserted from the; face side and rectangular flat piece with plurality of matching groove
are placed from the back side. A flap member of any colour is press fit on the outer
prefarry of the flat front surface by means of interlocking means.
The primary object of the invention is to provide a decorative sets of inter changeable
flap of any color to suit the panel for inter decoration.

The another object of the invention is to conceal the fixing screw at the 4 corners of the body to give a better asthetic look of the body.
Accordingly there is provided an improved body for electrical/electronic switch (1)
comprising a front flat surface (2) with or without flanges from moulded plastic
material having plurality of grooves (3) on its outer edges for fitting the body on
the board pannel by screwing and fixing a coloured flap member (4) having
projections (5) oh the inner part of the flap member for fixing the flap member
in the corresponding holes (6) provided in the body in push fit manner; the said
body comprising a projected central portion (7) having matching grooves (8) for
the switch (9) to be inserted from the front side, the brass part are assembled

from the back of the said body; charecterised in that the said flap member is
held in the body in the grooves provided between the flunges & the projected

central portion of the body in push fit manner for concealing the screwing and for the better asthetic look.
, An improved body for electrical/electronic switch wherein the body switches, fuse are
made of electrically insulated moulded materials preferably made from urea formaldehide (thermoset plastic) and polycarbonate.
An improved body for electrical/electronic switch wherein the body is box type
structure of any colour having a single central groove having opening at back with
outwardly projected flunge.

the said flap provided in the
An improved body for electrical/electronic switch wherein the flap member are provided with at least one projection on the back side of the flag member so as to fixed
member in a push fit manner in the correponding grooves/ holes body portion.

The invention will now be clear from the following description in the figure 1 to 3 in the accompanying drawing.
Fiqure 1 : is a front view of the an improved body for electrical/electronic switch without flap.
Figure 2 : is a front view of the an improved body for electrical/electronic switch with flap.
Figure 3 : is a back view of the flap member for electrical/electronic switch.
Referring to figure 1 to 3 an improved body for electrical/electronic switch (1) comprising a front flat surface (2) with or without flanges from moulded plastic
material having [plurality of grooves (3) on its outer edges for fitting the body on

the board pannel by screwing and fixing a coloured flap member (4) having
projections (5) on the inner part of the flap member for fixing the flap member
in the corresponding holes (6) provided in the body in push fit manner; the said
body comprising a projected central portion (7) having matching grooves (8) for
the switch (9) to be inserted from the front side, the brass part are assembled
from the back 'of the said body; charecterised in that the said flap member is
held in the body in the grooves provided between the flunges & the projected
central portion 'of the body in push fit manner for concealing the screwing and
for the better asthetic look.

This is an embodiment of the invention. Several modifications are possible may be considered within the ambit and spirit of this invention. Since many modifications,
variations and changes in detail may be made to the above described embodiments, it
is intended that all matters described in the foregoing description as shown in the
accompanying drawings be interpreted as illustrated and not in a limiting sense.

WE CLAIM :-
1. An improved body for electrical/electronic switch (1) comprising a front
flat surface (2) with or without flanges from moulded plastic material
having plurality of grooves (3) on its outer edges for fitting the body
on the board pannel by screwing and fixing a coloured flap member
(4) having projections (5) on the inner part of the flap member for
fixing the flap member in the body having a projected central
' portion (7) with matching grooves (8) for the switch (9) to be inserted
from the front side, and the brass part are assembled from the
back of the said body; charecterised in that the said flap member is
held in the body in the grooves provided between the flunges &
the projected central portion of the body in push fit manner for
concealing the screwing and for the better asthetic look.

2. An improved body for electrical / electronic switch as claimed in claim
1 wherein the flap may be of any colour or any combination as per
requirement of the user.
