Abstract
702,635. Number plates. EQUIPMENT & ENGINEERING CO., Ltd. Oct. 20, 1952 [Feb. 25, 1952], No. 4896/52. Class 3(2) [Also in Group XXXV] A holder for a detachable vehicle number plate comprises a rectangular support 1 having retaining means 4, 6 for a number plate 2 such that the number plate can be inserted into and removed from the support by movement in a direction which is mainly normal to the plane of the number plate, that is to say, movement in a direction parallel to the length of the vehicle, and switch apparatus secured to the support and arranged to control the circuit of one or more rear lights on the vehicle and comprising a switch 15 having a spring-pressed operated member 13 which member is normally maintained by its spring 17 in a position in which the switch is open, the arrangement being 'such that when the number plate is in position in the holder it maintains the operating member in its switch closing position, whereas when the number plate is removed from the holder, the spring acting on the operating member maintains the switch open. The retaining means consist of channels 4, 6 on the bottom and top edges respectively of the supporting plate 1. The lower channel is shallower than the upper channel and its front wall is cut away centrally to enable the number plate to be removed. The upper channel is provided with a spring 8 which bears on the flanged top edge 10 of the number plate to keep it in the lower channel and the plate is removed by moving it upwardly against the spring until it clears the lower channel when it can be drawn forwardly. The ends of the channels are closed by tabs 7 so that the plate cannot be moved laterally. The switch 15 of the push button type is mounted on the rear of the plate 1 in a cylindrical housing 11 and its button 16 is connected to the operating member 13 by the helical compression spring 17. The operating member 13 extends through the plate 1 and is slidably mounted on a guide 12. When the number plate 2 is in position, the member 13 is pressed into its guide and closes the switch 15 so that the rear lights of the vehicle can be controlled by the normal switch. When the number plate is removed the circuit of the rear lights is broken by the switch 15. Registering holes are provided in the number plate and support plate so that padlock may be used to lock the number plate in position.
