Structure for fixing a device on a supporting channel bar

Claim 1

Structure for fixing a device on a supporting channel of symmetrical or assymmetrical type, said means comprising, in combination: a base of an insulating housing, said base comprising a rigid leg, said rigid leg being situated near one end of the base, forming part of said base and depending therefrom, a fixing component, a compression spring, said fixing component having an elongated narrow body, a first rigid hook and a second rigid hook integral with said body and projecting outwardly from said body at longitudinally spaced positions to the same side of said body, a rod integral with said body and extending from one end thereof and being narrower than the body, such that the rod and the body define shoulders therebetween at their juncture, the first hook being situated at the other end of the body furthest from the rod, the second hook being situated between the first hook and the rod, the base having a first recess and a second recess aligned therewith at its end nearest to the leg, said compression spring being installed in said first recess, the height of the first recess being equal to the height of the fixing component body, and its length being such that the compression spring is installed partially compressed thereon, the second recess following the first recess and having a height equal to the height of the rod, said base including a longitudinal guide slot provided internally thereof between two opposed side surfaces of the base and communicating with the first recess, and said fixing component slidably positioned within said slot with said rod projecting through said compression spring, and said rod being provided with a pin on the end thereof extending beyond the compression spring, and said rod being of a length such that said compression spring is installed partially compressed thereon with said spring compressed in the first recess in the case of assembly on a channel bar.
