| Zusammenfassung: | A tamper resistant receptacle having cooperating shutter mechanisms wherein each shutter member has a lead-in cam surface having a steep initial point of contact and a flatter sliding surface (tangent fillets) to provide both an advantageous point of contact while also providing sufficient lateral clearance to un-shutter a blade opening, or lead-in cam surface having a continuously convex radius thereby providing a curved surface for the entire length of the camming operation, or a lead-in surface comprising a roller disposed in a fillet of a slide block cam surface. |
