Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim 179 words
An electrical connection system comprising a first housing part provided with an electrically-operated device with terminals for supplying electrical power to said device, a second housing part adapted to be releasably connected to the first housing part, the second housing part including a connector for electrically connecting said terminals of said device to an electrical supply, the connector including electrical contacts for receiving said terminals and connections for leads from said supply, wherein said connector has a pivotal mounting on supports in said second housing part for selective pivotal movement of the connector between first and second pivotal positions respectively facilitating attachment of the terminals to said contacts and attachment of the leads to said connections, a third housing part in the form of a cover and adapted to be releasably connected to said first and second housing parts over the first housing part, so that the third housing part acts as a shield for at least the first housing part and the electrically-operated device, and fastener means for releasably connecting said first, second and third housing parts together.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 179 words
An electrical connection system comprising a first housing part provided with an electrically-operated device with terminals for supplying electrical power to said device, a second housing part adapted to be releasably connected to the first housing part, the second housing part including a connector for electrically connecting said terminals of said device to an electrical supply, the connector including electrical contacts for receiving said terminals and connections for leads from said supply, wherein said connector has a pivotal mounting on supports in said second housing part for selective pivotal movement of the connector between first and second pivotal positions respectively facilitating attachment of the terminals to said contacts and attachment of the leads to said connections, a third housing part in the form of a cover and adapted to be releasably connected to said first and second housing parts over the first housing part, so that the third housing part acts as a shield for at least the first housing part and the electrically-operated device, and fastener means for releasably connecting said first, second and third housing parts together.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 15 words
The invention defined in claim 1 wherein said pivotal positions are separated by 90 degrees.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 17 words
