Abstract
A conduit access includes a base plate, a sensor, a motor, and a pivoting door plate. The base plate includes a pivot joint, a pass-through, and a stop. The pivot joint is at an edge of the base plate and extends toward a backside of the base plate. The pass-through is in a center of the base plate. The stop is on a rim of the base plate. The stop has a raised thickness on a frontside of the base plate. The sensor is in the pivot joint to detect motion. The motor is coupled to the pivot joint on the backside of the base plate. The motor activates on detection at the sensor. The pivoting door plate is parallel to the base plate. The pivoting door plate is coupled to the motor through the pivot joint to pivot across the frontside of the base plate to cover the pass-through.
Claims7
A conduit access comprising:
- a base plate comprising:
- a pivot joint disposed at an edge of the base plate and extending toward a backside of the base plate;
- a pass-through disposed in a center of the base plate;
- and
- a stop disposed on a rim of the base plate alongside the pass-though, the stop having a thickness raised from a frontside of the base plate;
- a sensor disposed in the pivot joint to detect motion on the frontside of the base plate;
- a motor coupled to the pivot joint on the backside of the base plate, the motor to activate in response to a detection at the sensor;
- a pivoting door plate positioned parallel to the base plate, the pivoting door plate being coupled to the motor through the pivot joint to pivot the pivoting door plate about the pivot joint and across the frontside of the base plate to cover the pass-through of the base plate.
