Description

[0001] SOCKET ALIGNMENT APPARATUS

[0002] Technical Field:

[0003] The invention relates to the alignment of sockets placed in walls in the electrical and construction industry.

[0004] The invention relates to an alignment apparatus for easy and practical alignment of sockets on the wall of a newly constructed building or an area in which painting, maintenance or renovation is carried out.

[0005] State of the Art:

[0006] Electronic products require electrical energy. The plug, one of the most important parts of electrical equipment, is produced in a variety of types that fit perfectly into the holes of the electrical socket. A plug is a small plastic object with metal inlets at the end, which connects electricity to the main source. When the plugs are connected to the sockets, the connection with electricity is ensured.

[0007] In order to ensure a proper fit between plug and socket, the sockets must be properly aligned in their housings in the wall. In the state of the art, electronic equipment and spirit levels are used for this. A spirit level, level, or simply a balance is an instrument for determining the horizontality of planes or lines, consisting of a glass cylinder filled with water with air bubbles and a wooden bearing. However, even in this way the sockets can be incorrectly positioned. This is because there is no fit between the spirit level and the socket.

[0008] In the state of the art, the electronic equipment used as alignment elements are costly products. It is therefore not accessible to everyone.

[0009] As a result, there is a need for a new socket alignment apparatus that overcomes the state of the art and eliminates its disadvantages.

[0010] Summary of the Invention: The invention is a socket alignment apparatus which exceeds the state of the art, overcomes its disadvantages and has additional advantages.

[0011] The object of the invention is to provide a socket alignment apparatus that is compatible with the socket thanks to its plug-shaped body and aligns the sockets thanks to the spirit level thereon.

[0012] Another object of the invention is to provide a socket alignment apparatus for properly aligning a socket on the wall, which is removed and inserted during renovation or which is newly inserted in the wall.

[0013] Another object of the invention is to provide a socket alignment apparatus for aligning sockets, which is easy to use, low cost and accessible to everyone.

[0014] The invention is a socket alignment apparatus for aligning the sockets inserted in the housing on the surface to be applied. It comprises at least one body, socket inlets on one surface of said body, which are located in the electrical connection holes in the sockets, and a spirit level in any part of the body, used as a measuring instrument during alignment.

[0015] Description of the Drawings:

[0016] The invention will be described with reference to the accompanying figures, so that the features of the invention will be more clearly understood. However, this is not intended to limit the invention to these specific embodiments. On the contrary, it is also intended to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalents that may be included within the field of the invention defined by the appended claims. It is to be understood that the details shown are shown solely for the purpose of describing the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are presented for the purpose of providing the most useful and easily understood description of both the embodiment of the methods and the rules and conceptual features of the invention. In the drawings,

[0018] Description of the Reference Numbers:

[0019] 1. Socket alignment apparatus

[0020] 10. Body

[0021] 11. Spirit level housing

[0022] 12. Socket inlet

[0023] Description of the Invention:

[0024] In this detailed description, the socket alignment apparatus (1 ) according to the invention is only described with the examples without any limiting effect for a better understanding of the subject.

[0025] Fig. 1 shows the perspective view of the socket alignment apparatus (1 ) according to the invention. Accordingly, the socket alignment apparatus (1) comprises a body (10) in the form of a plug which is inserted into the sockets, and socket inlets (12) which fit into the electrical connection holes in the socket. In this way, the socket and the socket alignment apparatus (1) are connected to each other and the alignment process can be carried out in an error-free manner. The spirit level and electronic equipment used in the state of the art are not in connection with the sockets. As a result, users or craftsmen may make mistakes when aligning the socket. The advantage of the invention is that the socket alignment apparatus (1), which fits into the holes in the socket, forms a whole structure with the socket.

[0026] In the invention, a spirit level is used to perform the alignment process. Said spirit level is placed in the spirit level housing (11) on the body (10).

[0027] The invention is very easy to use. For this purpose, the socket inlets (12) of the socket alignment apparatus (1) are inserted into the electrical connection holes in the socket. Afterwards, the socket alignment apparatus (1 ) is rotated to the right or left by measuring with the spirit level on the body (10). At this time, the socket can rotate in its housing in the wall as it is connected to the socket alignment apparatus (1 ). When the spirit level is parallel to the floor, the adjustment is terminated, the socket alignment device (1 ) is removed from the socket and the aligned socket is mounted on the wall.
