    摘要: A filler element or insert for installation in a decorator-type wall plate when the latter are used to cover mounting boxes containing standard electrical controls, the insert being a substantially rectangular element dimensioned to fit within the central opening in the wall plate. The insert in turn includes an aperture usually centrally disposed therein, the latter aperture being shaped and dimensioned to accommodate the extending or projecting portion of a desired electrical control. The insert also includes means disposed on its edge portion for providing a luminance mask or visual discontinuity between the front surface of the decorator plate and the front surface of the insert. Means are provided for securing the insert in the aperture in the wall plate.

    摘要: A cover and support plate arrangement for a wall mounted device, such as a wall switch, display, dimmer, etc., for mounting to a wall box embedded in the wall and having overall surface dimensions greater than that of the wall box. The cover plate is juxtaposed over the front surface of the support plate and is spaced therefrom to provide an air gap between the cover plate and the support plate creating a chimney through which air currents may flow. The device includes an electric circuit having a heat generating device, such as a triac, which is thermally connected to the support plate and in series electrically with a controlled load. The cover plate casts a shadow along vertical sides of the support plate such that the vertical sides of the support plate are visible only when viewed at extreme angles with respect to an imaginary line perpendicular to the plane of the support plate or the wall in which the device is mounted. The cover plate appears to float from the wall while proper thermal dissipation is achieved through the chimney between the cover and support plate. Means are disclosed for constructing a low profile, conventionally sized family of wall mounted dimmer switches that meet Underwriters Laboratories operating temperature standards.

    摘要: Directional indicators on the control buttons of an electrical control for a light dimmer or a motor controller are formed by triangular lines with vertices pointing away from one another and in a direction related to the change initiated by pressing the related button. The indicia are formed by narrow lines of length less than about one hundred thousands of an inch, and tend to disappear from view as an observer is farther away from the control buttons. The buttons are formed of right triangles with adjacent spaced hypotenuses and fit into a rectangular area. On/off rectangular buttons of the same color as the control buttons are atop and below the rectangular area.
