Latest Patents

Elliot Isban's latest patents include the Quick Connect Power Tap System. This invention is a coupling device that allows for quickly changing electrical fixtures without the need for rewiring. The quick change mounting fixture consists of a combined electrical and mechanical two-piece male and female fastening device. It enables both consumer and professional installation and detachment of fixtures by providing an easy and safe method. All wires and contacts are self-contained and shielded from accidental contact. The invention features a female receptacle plate for mounting to a standard ceiling or wall-mounted electrical junction box, along with a male tap support plate that also functions as a fixture support. Additionally, it includes a block terminal support where contacts and wire routes are located, as well as a shield cover.

Another aspect of the Quick Connect Power Tap System provides an improvement to the coupling device. This version allows for quickly changing electrical fixtures without rewiring as well. The quick change mounting fixture comprises a combined electrical and mechanical two-piece male and female fastening device. The female receptacle plate is mounted to a standard ceiling or wall-mounted electrical junction box, while the male tap support plate can be selectively rotatably mounted to the female receptacle plate. The rotation of the male tap support plate through a predetermined angle aligns the respective live and neutral electrical contacts supported on the plates. An improvement includes a ground spring electrical contact mounted to the male plate, which engages the suitably grounded female plate before the male and female electrical contacts become electrically engaged. The resilient force of the spring contact helps ensure snug electrical connections between the respective live and neutral electrical contacts after alignment.
