SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26)

Description:
A CEILING JUNCTION BOX

Technological Area:

The invention relates to a ceiling junction box that collects electrical cables by placing inside the ceiling structures in buildings, enabling the installation of chandeliers, fans and similar equipment to receive electrical energy.

State of the Art:

The apparatus used in houses, offices and similar buildings, where electrical cables and telephone cables are gathered together and connected, are called junction box. Junction boxes collect the cables in the installation and provide electrical connections to various equipment in a safe and orderly manner. The invention, which is the subject of the description, relates to the junction boxes mentioned here.

Junction boxes used in the known technique are placed in the building plaster. However, over time, they may lose the strength and separate from the plaster. Plastering is required again tto reposition the junction box, which was separated from the plaster. Also, when the junction box is separated from the plaster, accidents such as electricity leakage can be encountered.

Junction boxes used in the state of the art only allow chandeliers and similar elements to be connected. However, it does not contain additional ducts for mounting two separate products such as chandelier and fan at the same time.

When cables are supplied to the cable ducts of junction boxes in the state of the art, problems such as cables coming out of the duct are encountered. Cable i

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) ducts are in cylindrical form and no precautions have been taken to prevent the cable from withdrawal.

In the junction boxes of the state of the art, the cable supplied from the cable entry exits from the other cable entry located opposite it. However, it is desired that the cable remains within the junction box volume. There is no precaution to prevent this situation in junction boxes of state of the art.

In the utility model document no 2020/21637 encountered in the literature research, a junction box cover is mentioned. However, the invention subject of the description is related to the body of the junction box.

Consequently, there is a need for a ceiling junction box in which the state of the art is overcome and its disadvantages are eliminated.

Short Description of Invention:

The invention is a ceiling junction box in which the state of the art is overcome, the disadvantages are eliminated, and additionally includes extra advantages.

The aim of the invention is to present a ceiling junction box that can be fixed to structures more robustly due to its structure.

Another aim of the invention is to introduce a new ceiling junction box, in which two different elements such as chandelier and fan can be connected at the same time, by virtue of its additional cable ducts.

Another aim of the invention is to introduce a new ceiling junction box that prevents any intervention from external factors during construction from the duct where the electrical pipe enters, with the serrations placed in the pipe ducts, which prevents the pipe from withdrawal.

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) Another aim of the invention is to create a new ceiling junction box in which the cable entering from the cable duct is prevented from passing through the opposite duct by forming a bump with the obstacle located between the opposite cable ducts.

Another aim of the invention is to present a ceiling junction box that allows various apparatus to be installed without drilling and destroying the wall or plaster, with the additional mounting ducts formed on the side surfaces of the body.

Description of the Figures:

The present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying figures, so that the features of the invention will be more clearly understood. However, it is not intended to limit the invention to these particular embodiments. On the contrary, it is intended to cover all alternatives, modifications and equivalents that may be included within the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. It should be understood that the details shown are illustrated solely for the purpose of illustrating preferred embodiments of the present invention, and are presented to provide the most useful and easy to understand description of both the embodiment of the methods and the rules and conceptual features of the invention. In these drawings:

Description of the Invention:

In this detailed description, theceiling junction box (1 ) subject to the invention is explained only for a better understanding of the subject, with examples that do not create any limitation. In the description, a ceiling junction box (1 ) is described, which collects electrical cables by being placed inside the ceiling structures in buildings, and enables the installation of chandeliers, fans and similar equipment to receive electrical energy.

Ceiling junction (1 ) subject to the invention includes lower body (11 ) and upper body (10) having cylindrical form combined with tabs (18), cable ducts (12) and additional ducts (13) formed on all four sides of the cylindrical body (10, 11 ). The cable ducts (12) ensure that the cables in the installation are collected in

SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) the volume inside the body (10, 11 ) by introducing. In the invention, there are additional ducts (13) to enable the ceiling junction box (1 ) and two separate equipment (for example, chandelier and fan) to be mounted at the same time.

As seen in figure 2, the ceiling junction box (1 ) subject of the invention, includes a twisted iron fixing component (20) placed on its lower surface. The fixing component (20) stays in the building plaster during the assembly of the ceiling junction box (1 ) to the ceiling and strengthens the connection of the ceiling junction box (1 ) with the ceiling plaster. In Figure 3, the twisted iron inside the ceiling junction box (1 ) acts as a hook. It ensures that the chandelier, fan, and similar installations are solid and safe.

Inside the cable ducts (12) and additional ducts (13) of the ceiling junction box (1 ) subject of the invention, there are serrations (14) placed at an angle to prevent the incoming cable from withdrawal. Besides, a barrier (15) is formed by raising the middle part of the lower body (11 ). The barrier (15) mentioned forms an inclined bump (16) to prevent the cable entering from a cable duct (12) from exiting the cable duct (12) opposite. In this way, it is ensured that the cables are gathered in the center of the body (10, 11 ).

On the side surface of the upper body (10) of the ceiling junction box (1 ) subject of the invention, there are additional mounting ducts (21 ) that allow various apparatus to be installed without drilling or destroying the wall or plaster.
