    摘要: The present disclosure envisages a mechanism (100) for indirect access to an actuator (210) on an apparatus (200) disposed within a housing (300). The mechanism (100) comprises a bushing (10), a spring-loaded shaft (20), an arm (30), a first stopper (40) and a pedestal (50). The spring-loaded shaft (20) passes through the bushing (10) and is configured to reciprocate through the annular passage (12). An arm (30) is disposed within the housing (300), and is coupled to the shaft (20). The first stopper (40) is received on the shaft (20) operatively below the arm (30). The pedestal (50) is disposed between the arm (30) and the first stopper (40). The pedestal (50) is configured to facilitate abutment of the arm (30) with the actuator (210). The arm (30) is configured to press the actuator (210) when the shaft (20) is linearly displaced.

    摘要: The present disclosure relates to the field of lighting systems. The collective dissipation of heat by various components of lighting systems, inside a conventional single compartment enclosure, raises the temperature of each of the components, resulting in damage and reduction in the life of the components. The present disclosure, therefore, envisages an enclosure for lighting systems which is compartmentalized, and prevents overheating of the components of the lighting systems. The enclosure includes a first compartment and a second compartment. At least one driver is receivable in the first compartment and at least one light emitting component is receivable in the second compartment. The first compartment is insulated from the second compartment. The enclosure is primarily used for lighting fixtures which require high efficiency operation from a compact package, or lighting fixtures which operate in rugged environments at high temperatures.

    摘要: The present disclosure discloses an electrical receptacle assembly. The electrical receptacle assembly comprises a housing with a first compartment and a second compartment with at least one third opening for receiving power supply cables. The first compartment has a second opening for receiving a switch knob, defined with central axis. A base of the second compartment fitted with a switch assembly in the housing. The switch assembly defines a spindle which is required to align axially with the central axis of the slot of the switch knob. A first and a second switch assembly mounting locations on the base mounts the switch assembly. The first mounting location is used when the power supply cables are positioned to enter the receptacle from operatively below the receptacle and the second mounting location is used when the power supply cables are positioned to enter the receptacle from operatively above the receptacle.

    摘要: A connector assembly includes a male connector element that is manually expandable to control tightness of fit in a and a female connector element. The male connector element is having a first and a second portion configured by longitudinally bi-furcating the male connector element and includes a chamfered portion, a radially adjusting mechanism and a screw. The chamfered portion is axially configured on male connector element and receives the radially adjusting mechanism that moves the first and second portions relative to each other. The screw axially passes through male connector element and radially moves the radially adjusting mechanism to adjust the gap between the first and second portions to adjust external dimension of male connector element. The female connector element is having a tubular configuration that receives male connector element and is having a plurality of longitudinal slits configured thereon, walls of the female connector element are urged radially inwards towards the male connector element to maintain contact there-between by a spring element.
