<p>An electric appliance system comprising a hand-held appliance, a power input for receiving electric current, a two-pole switch for enabling the appliance, a power cord connecting the appliance with the switch and a pair of manually operable control elements operatively coupled to the two-pole switch for controlling its position. A hanger box encloses the switch and control elements, except for protruding portions of the control elements, and is adapted to receive the appliance. When the appliance is removed from the hanger box, the protruding portion of one of the control elements can be pressed manually, until latched on the other control element, thereby closing the switch and activating the appliance. When the appliance is hung on the hanger box, the protruding portion of the other control element is pressed down, thereby releasing the first control element, opening the switch, and disconnecting the appliance.</p> |
