"Lock-a-Plug" Child Safety Plug Lock:

"Lock-a-Plug" attaches to the prongs of an appliance when the appliance is not in use. Once "Lock-a-Plug" is attached, the plug cannot be plugged into any outlet. This safety plug is secured to the prongs by the familiar "push down and turn" child safety bottle cap procedure. As the knob is turned, compressive force is applied to the prongs thus retaining them in the block. A market study reveals overwhelming acceptance by parents of young children for a product that will prevent a child from plugging in an appliance or electric tool. It is estimated that per unit manufacturing cost will be $0.25 with a retail price of approximately $2.00. Prototypes have been extensively tested with excellent results.
