Safety Plug Concept Keeps Away Curious Kiddies' Fingers

Childproofing is a pretty good idea for most new families. Children (and probably some adults) like to stick things in places they shouldn't go. This safety plug concept should eliminate that (for outlets at least).

umm... how would that concept safety proof anything? seeing as the power point is the place where electricity comes from and not the power plug :/

looks cute though!

Ehhhh, I'm pretty sure that wouldn't stop a kid from playing with it.

cooperlife said...

that is brilliant!
I've been zapped a view times and I think this could have helped.

Looks like a solution to the wrong problem.

If your hand slips or something and you touch the rods, that sucks. This would help, haha.

its like foreskin on a usb jack

SaviorSelf said...

might actually encourage kids to play with it. it looks cool.

but i understand the reasoning. i wonder if it really works..

Donkote said...

very smart invention, i bet a lot of parents will get this

Unknown said...

I'm not quite seeing how it's childproof, but maybe I just need to see it being tried to be pulled out.

Nice :D

Gurney said...

ooo thats cool

Tsipise said...

again cool invention.

not good for keeping kids from sticking stuff in the socket, but I can see it keeping people like me from getting shocked unplugging stuff (it happens all the time).

Anonymous said...

I think this a good idea! Less kids will be shocked!

Ishu said...

Doesn't seem like it would help at all... :/

Cant see how this protects children

What are you doing here. said...

that looks safe i must get it

zon said...

how are we supposed to learn not to do it then

Styron said...

ah comon :((

Ratch said...

great idea, in some countries there are 3 holes in the sockets so if you want to put anything into the live ones you have to first push in a blocker in the neutral pin hole, unless you do this nothing can get into the live holes. this prevents children from sticking their fingers in.

Doesn't seem like such a great concept to me.

Saving the gene pool from cleaning once again I see

Joe said...

Cool gadget

iammyself said...

kind of like this idea

SoreLosersGaming said...

I'm not sure what kind of protection that actually offers. After all, the electricity is in the wall! I suppose it keeps the prongs behind the rubber whilst the plug is being pulled out, though, which could be helpful?

In England, we have three pronged plugs with the longest prong being "earthed", so this wouldn't be much helped over here (or less help, anyway).

While I like the idea of Darwinism... I still think this is pretty nifty. hah

Kids will always find ways to electrocute themselves!

Robobrain said...

It's comforting to assume that a lot of time and money went into this pointless endeavor.

Cowbellrocker said...

I remember when I first electrocuted myself with an outlet. Although I could have died, I never did it again.
