Night light with wall outlet shield

A night light adapted to be connected to a first set of outlet openings of a wall outlet, comprising:

• a body having a front portion with a receptacle formed thereon, the receptacle having a predetermined depth defined by a circumferential side wall, and a rear portion with a frame section formed thereon, the receptacle having a base section formed oil a rear end side of the receptacle with a pair of pads mounted therein, each associated with a blade opening formed through the base section, the frame section having a passage formed thereon adapted to align with a second set of outlet openings provided on the wall outlet, the frame section comprising at least one retaining hole formed on a front end side thereof and at least one pivotal connector having a pivot on a rear end side thereof;
• a pair of conductor blades adapted to be inserted into the first set of outlet openings of the wall outlet to establish electrical connection therewith, each having a bent extension and being receivable within each of the blade openings of the base section of the receptacle to have the bent extension substantially corresponding to and positionable against the respective one of the pads on the base section of the receptacle;
• an electro-luminescent light source of a flat configuration, disposed in the predetermined depth of the receptacle, having a contact plate extending therefrom to support a pair of electrical contact members which are positionable over and in electrical engagement with the bent extensions of the conductor blades to receive electricity therefrom for actuating the light source to generate light;
• a flat light-transmitting member, sized to be receivable within the depth of the receptacle and to overlap the light source to allow the light generated by the light source to transmit therethrough and emit outward;
• a cover having an opening corresponding to the light-transmitting member to allow the light that transmits through the light-transmitting member to project therethrough and to secure the cover to the front portion of the body;
• and
• a shield comprising at least one connection element corresponding to and rotatably engageable with the at least one pivot of the frame section to render the shield rotatable relative to the frame section between an open position where the shield is angularly away from the frame section to expose the passage of the frame section and a closed position where the shield substantially covers the frame section and thus shields the passage of the frame section, the shield comprising at least one hook releasably engageable with the at least one of the retaining hole of the frame section to releasably secure the shield in the closed position.
