Abstract
An electrical connector for facilitating disconnection from an electrical device by an operator includes an electrical cord and an electrical plug device attached to an end of the electrical cord and having a planar surface. The electrical plug device includes an electrical connector perpendicular to the planar surface of the electrical plug device and a disengagement member. The electrical cord is electrically connected to the electrical connector through the electrical plug device.
Claims15
An electrical connection device for providing electrical power to an electrical device, consisting essentially of:
- an electrical cord having a centerline;
- and
- an electrical plug device attached to an end of said electrical cord and having a first planar surface and a second planar surface;
- said electrical plug device including,
- an electrical connector, located on said first planar surface of said electrical plug device and being perpendicular to said first planar surface of said electrical plug device, for physically and electrically connecting said electrical plug device to the electrical device, and
- a disengagement member located on said centerline of said single electrical cord;
- said disengagement member having a first surface, said first surface of said disengagement member being a portion of said first planar surface of said electrical plug device;
- said disengagement member having a second surface, said second surface of said disengagement member being a portion of said second planar surface of said electrical plug device;
