发明名称 Electrical box with recessed faceplate
摘要 An electrical box with recessed faceplate having a one-piece recessed faceplate (2) and adapted to accommodate a two-piece recessed faceplate (25). A rear portion (8) contains channels (9) on the top (5), bottom (6), and sides (7). A connecting wall (1503) attaches the rear portion (8) to the front portion (11). The connecting wall (1503) extends beyond the rear portion (8) and preferably contains one or more apertures (19, 20) to accommodate releasable fasteners such as screws (10). These apertures (19, 20) and the channels (9) assure that no screws (10) or analogous components or another type or releasable fastener are exposed within the box (1). The two-piece recessed faceplate (25) has an inner portion (45) and an outer portion (24) which slide along each other in order to enable the box (1) to be mounted at different distances from the mounting surface. Optionally, a removable cover (39) extends across the mouth (3) of the faceplate (2, 25). An extender (47) is also available for converting traditional electrical boxes (46) into a box that can accommodate a recessed faceplate (2, 25). And an alternative electrical box (600) holds switches (619) and is L-shaped.
