20140332355 | Childproof electric switch enclosure - The present invention is a childproof electrical switch cover that prevents children from operating the enclosed toggle or rocker electrical switch but allows adults to do so. The childproof cover is placed over the existing electrical switch to be protected and is held firmly in place against the existing electrical switch using the same hardware previously used to hold the existing electrical switch firmly against its support structure: the childproof electric switch cover and the wall switch that it is placed upon forming a protected volume that is not accessible to children attempting to actuate the electrical switch. Access by adults to the existing switch is provided thru removable childproof caps located on the childproof cover. When the childproof cap of the present invention is removed by an adult, the cover remains childproof. Additional childproofing is achieved by restricting the dimensions of the opening that is revealed when the cap is removed to those smaller then the width of a child's hand and by making the vertical height from the opening to the existing switch longer than a child's finger so the child can not reach the actuator of the switch. | 11-13-2014 |
