Pop-up cover and box kit for floors and countertops

Abstract

A pop-up cover with a front insertable outlet. The pop-up cover includes sidewalls, a front panel, an outlet bracket, a lid defining a cavity within the cover, and an opening into the cavity. An outlet bracket enables straight-in insertion and securement of an electrical outlet within the cavity. A cover biasing and latching arrangement enables movement of the pop-up cover from a closed position to an open position. A recessed wall with an aperture on the cover enables easy replacement of the electrical outlet when needed. The cover biasing arrangement includes a pivot pin and a spring on the pivot pin biasing the cover to the open position. A thumb slide enables releasing the cover from the closed position to the open position. An alignment tab on the recessed wall enables rapid alignment and fitting of the outlet bracket to the pop-up cover.
