Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of track socket technology, and more particularly to an electric track adapter. Background Technology
[0002] A track socket is a portable socket consisting of a power track and an adapter. The adapter can be fitted into different positions on the power track to draw power. The power track includes a main body and conductive copper strips located inside the main body. These conductive copper strips connect to an external power source. The adapter includes a socket body and conductive connecting pieces. When using the track socket, the adapter is placed in the power track, and the conductive connecting pieces contact the conductive copper strips in the track, allowing the adapter to draw power from the power track.
[0003] At this point, you only need to insert the appliance plug into the socket on the socket body to use it. Therefore, to further improve safety, some adapters are also equipped with a switch device to control the connection between the external power supply and the conductive connecting piece. Generally, the switch device is located on the upper surface of the socket body, and the circuit is switched on and off by the up-and-down swinging switch plate. Such a switch device occupies part of the upper surface area of the socket body, affecting the normal insertion and use of the appliance plug, or it is necessary to increase the area on the upper surface of the socket body, thereby increasing the overall size of the adapter. Moreover, the socket body is relatively small. In order to ensure the reliability of the switch device in switching the circuit, the switch plate needs to have a large swing angle, which is not only unsightly, but also affects the operation feel and ease of use.
[0004] In addition, during the movement of the adapter, the conductive connecting piece of the adapter and the conductive copper strip of the track will slide and rub against each other. As the usage time increases, wear will occur between the conductive connecting piece and the conductive copper strip, which may lead to poor contact. Summary of the Invention

To this end, this invention proposes a power rail adapter in which the switch plate is located on the side wall of the socket body, which does not affect the normal plugging and use of electrical appliances. The switch plate is easy to operate, does not increase the overall size of the adapter, and is aesthetically pleasing.
[0006] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a power rail adapter includes: a socket body, wherein the socket body is provided with a first contact piece, a second contact piece, a third contact piece, an L-pole conductive component, and an N-pole conductive component, one of the L-pole conductive component and the N-pole conductive component is connected to the first contact piece, and the other is connected to the second contact piece or the third contact piece, the third contact piece is provided with a stationary contact conductive component, a conductive plate is movably disposed within the socket body, the second contact piece is provided with a supporting conductive portion abutting against the conductive plate, the conductive plate is provided with a movable contact conductive component cooperating with the stationary contact conductive component, a switch plate is slidably disposed on the side wall of the socket body, the switch plate is provided with a pusher that elastically abuts against the conductive plate, and when the switch plate slides, it can drive the pusher to move along the extension direction of the conductive plate to drive the conductive plate to rotate around the supporting conductive portion, thereby driving the movable contact conductive component to engage or disengage from the stationary contact conductive component.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0032] See Figures 1 to 3 An electric track adapter of the present invention includes: a socket body 100, wherein the socket body 100 is provided with a first contact piece 210, a second contact piece 220, a third contact piece 230, an L-pole conductive component 240, and an N-pole conductive component 250; one of the L-pole conductive component 240 and the N-pole conductive component 250 is connected to the first contact piece 210, and the other is connected to the second contact piece 220 or the third contact piece 230; the third contact piece 230 is provided with a stationary contact conductive element 231; a conductive plate 260 is movably disposed within the socket body 100; and the second contact piece 220 is provided with abutment... The conductive plate 260 is supported by a conductive part 221. The conductive plate 260 is provided with a movable conductive part 261 that cooperates with the stationary conductive part 231. A switch plate 300 is slidably disposed on the side wall of the socket body 100. The switch plate 300 is provided with a pusher 310 that elastically abuts against the conductive plate 260. When the switch plate 300 slides, it can drive the pusher 310 to move along the extension direction of the conductive plate 260 to drive the conductive plate 260 to rotate around the conductive part 221, thereby driving the movable conductive part 261 to engage or disengage from the stationary conductive part 231.
[0033] The power rail adapter with the above structure has a switch plate 300 slidably mounted on the side wall of the socket body 100. When the switch plate 300 slides, it drives the pusher 310 to move along the extension direction of the conductive plate 260, causing the conductive plate 260 to rotate. This drives the moving contact conductive element 261 to combine with the stationary contact conductive element 231 to achieve circuit conduction. Since it does not occupy the area of the upper surface of the socket body 100, it does not affect the normal plugging and use of electrical appliances. The operation is convenient by pushing the switch plate 300 to slide, and it does not require increasing the overall size of the adapter, and it is also aesthetically pleasing. In addition, compared with the traditional switch plate 300, which requires a large angle of swing to link the moving contact conductive element 261 and the stationary contact conductive element 231 to combine and separate, the switch plate 300 of this embodiment has a larger stroke, which is conducive to the conductive plate 260 to rotate at a larger angle, thereby making the circuit connection and disconnection more reliable.
[0034] In this embodiment, the N-pole conductive component 250 is connected to the first contact piece 210, the L-pole conductive component 240 is connected to the second contact piece 220, the live wire end of the appliance socket is directly connected to the third contact piece 230 when inserted, and the neutral wire end of the appliance socket is directly connected to the first contact piece 210 when inserted. The appliance can be powered on when the switch board 300 drives the moving contact conductive component 261 and the stationary contact conductive component 231 to combine.
[0035] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the side wall of the socket body 100 is provided with a through-hole guide groove 110 extending along the sliding direction of the switch plate 300, and the switch plate 300 has a side push block 320 that can reciprocate within the through-hole guide groove 110. It is understood that when the user applies force to the side push block 320, the side push block 320 slides within the through-hole guide groove 110, thereby causing the push member 310 to produce a corresponding displacement. When the push member 310 moves from one side of the conductive plate 260 located on the supporting conductive part 221 to the other side, the guide plate is subjected to force to swing around the supporting conductive part 221.
[0036] See Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments of the present invention, the outer contour of the socket body 100 is cylindrical, the outer peripheral wall of the socket body 100 is a cylindrical surface, the through-hole guide groove 110 is an arc groove formed on the cylindrical surface around the axial direction of the socket body 100, and the switch plate 300 slides along an arc path around the axial direction of the socket body 100 to drive the conductive plate 260 to swing. It can be understood that by using the above structure to achieve the arc reciprocating motion of the switch plate 300 around the axial direction of the socket body 100, the radial displacement of the push member 310 along the socket body 100 is smaller on the moving trajectory of the switch plate 300. This helps to ensure that the force of the push member 310 elastically abutting against the conductive plate 260 is more uniform, and avoids the situation where the push member 310 cannot contact the conductive plate 260 at certain positions due to the long moving stroke of the switch plate 300. Ultimately, this ensures that the moving contact conductive member 261 and the stationary contact conductive member 231 can make better contact or separate. The socket body 100 is provided with an arc guide groove 170, and the switch plate 300 is provided with a guide post 340 that can reciprocate within the arc guide groove 170.
[0037] Of course, in other embodiments, the outer contour of the socket body 100 may also be a quadrangular prism or other shapes, and the switch plate 300 may slide linearly along one side of the outer wall of the socket body 100, which can also drive the conductive plate 260 to rotate.
[0038] See Figure 2 and Figure 3In some embodiments of the present invention, the supporting conductive portion 221 is a protruding ridge extending along the height direction of the socket body 100. One side surface of the conductive plate 260 is bent toward the switch plate 300 so that the other side surface of the conductive plate 260 forms line contact with the protruding ridge. The abutting member 310 is connected to the switch plate 300 by a first spring member 330 arranged radially along the socket body 100. The first spring member 330 drives the abutting member 310 to elastically abut against the side surface of the conductive plate 260 away from the protruding ridge. Under the action of the first spring member 330, the abutting member abuts the arched side surface of the conductive plate 260 against the protruding ridge, making it less likely for interference to occur when the conductive plate 260 swings around the protruding ridge.
[0039] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the side push block 320 has an arcuate sidewall that protrudes radially from the cylindrical surface of the socket body 100, the arcuate sidewall protruding from the cylindrical surface by a uniform radial distance, and the arcuate sidewall is provided with an anti-slip texture. It is understood that most of the side push block 320 is located within the through-hole guide groove 110, avoiding a significant increase in the size of the socket body 100. The slight protrusion of the arcuate sidewall of the side push block 320 from the cylindrical surface and the provision of an anti-slip texture on the arcuate sidewall both facilitate the user's use of their fingers to push the switch plate 300 to move.
[0040] See Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments of the present invention, the lower part of the socket body 100 is fitted with a mounting shell 400. The socket body 100 can rotate relative to the mounting shell 400 about a vertical axis. The lower end of the mounting shell 400 is provided with a guide member 410 for sliding within a guide groove of the power track. The middle part of the guide member 410 is provided with a hollow receiving groove 420. The L-pole conductive component 240 and the N-pole conductive component 250 are both provided with elastic contact components. The elastic contact components can rotate with the socket body 100 relative to the mounting shell 400 to be received within the hollow receiving groove 420 or extend out of the hollow receiving groove 420. A portion of the elastic contact component extends outward along the middle part of the socket body 100. When the adapter of the present invention needs to be installed on an electric rail, the elastic contact component is housed within the hollow receiving groove 420 so that the L-pole conductive component 240 and the N-pole conductive component 250 do not protrude from the guide component 410. Then, the guide component 410 is placed into the guide groove of the electric rail. The whole assembly consisting of the guide component 410, the L-pole conductive component 240, and the N-pole conductive component 250 can slide freely along the guide groove. After the adapter slides to the preset position, the user drives the socket body 100 to rotate relative to the mounting shell 400. At this time, the elastic contact component rotates with the socket body 100 to extend out of the hollow receiving groove 420. The end of the elastic contact component extending out of the hollow receiving groove 420 can elastically contact the conductive copper strip in the guide groove. That is, the L-pole conductive component 240 maintains the connection to the live wire of the external power supply, and the N-pole conductive component 250 maintains the connection to the neutral wire of the external power supply.
[0041] Specifically, the guide component 410 is a flat slider with a thickness dimension matching the width dimension of the guide groove. The middle of the slider is hollowed out to form the hollow receiving groove 420. The L-polar conductive component 240 and the N-polar conductive component 250 have the same structure, both having a flat guide sleeve 510 for accommodating the components of the elastic contact component. In order to simplify the production and manufacturing process, the guide component 410 and the mounting shell 400 are formed by integral injection molding. In some embodiments, to improve safety and make the power rail adapter suitable for three-pronged electrical appliances, the socket body 100 is further provided with an E-pole conductive component 270. The E-pole conductive component 270 includes a conductive pin that passes through the socket body 100 in a vertical direction. A third spring is provided between the upper end of the conductive pin and the socket body 100. The third spring drives the lower end of the conductive pin to extend downward out of the guide member 410. Correspondingly, the guide member 410 has a through hole 411 to allow the conductive pin to pass through. The socket body 100 is also provided with a channel to allow the conductive pin to pass through. A grounded conductive copper strip is provided on the bottom wall of the guide groove of the power rail. Under the action of the third spring, the lower end of the conductive pin elastically abuts against the grounded conductive copper strip.
[0042] See Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present invention, the elastic contact assembly includes a guide sleeve 510 horizontally outwardly disposed along the middle of the socket body 100. The guide sleeve 510 contains a first connecting piece 520, a second connecting piece 530, and a second spring member 540. One end of the first connecting piece 520 extends into the socket body 100, and the second connecting piece 530 remains in contact with the first connecting piece 520. Both ends of the second spring member 540 abut against the first connecting piece 520 and the second connecting piece 530 respectively to drive one end of the second connecting piece 530 to remain protruding outside the guide sleeve 510. It should be noted that both the first connecting piece 520 and the second connecting piece 530 are made of conductive metal. The first connecting piece 520 and the guide sleeve 510 are fixed relative to the socket body 100. Under the action of the second spring member 540, the second connecting piece 530 extends outward along the internal channel of the guide sleeve 510. During the outward extension of the second connecting piece 530, the second connecting piece 530 always remains in contact with the first connecting piece 520 to ensure the stability of conductivity. When the second connecting piece 530 extends from one end of the guide sleeve 510 and abuts against the conductive copper strip inside the power rail, the second connecting piece 530 undergoes a certain displacement along the direction of compressing the second spring 540. This increases the elastic restoring force of the second spring 540 acting on the second connecting piece 530, which helps maintain the contact connection between the second connecting piece 530 and the conductive copper strip. Even if the surface of the conductive copper strip is uneven or the second connecting piece 530 experiences some wear, the second connecting piece 530 and the conductive copper strip can still maintain contact, extending the service life of the power rail adapter. To simplify the production and manufacturing process, the guide sleeve 510 and the socket body 100 are formed by integral injection molding.
[0043] See Figure 4In some embodiments of the present invention, the elastic contact assembly further includes a third connecting piece 550 disposed within the guide sleeve 510. One end of the third connecting piece 550 is provided with a first stop portion 551 that abuts against the end of the first connecting piece 520 away from the socket body 100. The other end of the third connecting piece 550 is provided with a limiting guide groove 552. The second connecting piece 530 passes through the limiting guide groove 552 and remains abutting against the third connecting piece 550. One end of the second connecting piece 530 extending into the guide sleeve 510 is provided with a second stop portion 531. The guide sleeve 510 is provided with a limiting portion 511 that abuts against the second stop portion 531. The two ends of the second spring member 540 abut against the first stop portion 551 and the second stop portion 531, respectively. It should be noted that the third connecting piece 550 is fixedly disposed within the guide sleeve 510. The third connecting piece 550 is electrically connected by abutting against the end of the first connecting piece 520 using the first stop portion 551. The second connecting piece 530 abuts against the upper surface of the third connecting piece 550 to achieve electrical connection. When the second spring 540 drives the second connecting piece 530 to extend outward from the guide sleeve 510, the second connecting piece 530 slides along the upper surface of the third connecting piece 550, and the end of the second connecting piece 530 extends out from the limiting guide groove 552. It can be understood that the limiting guide groove 552 restricts the up-and-down movement of the second connecting piece 530 to ensure that the second connecting piece 530 and the third connecting piece 550 remain in contact. Specifically, the end of the third connecting piece 550 away from the first connecting piece 520 forms a horizontal U-shaped bend, and the middle position of this U-shaped bend constitutes the limiting guide groove 552. After the second connecting piece 530 moves outward a certain distance, the second stop piece 531 abuts against the limiting piece 511 to prevent the second connecting piece 530 from continuing to move outward, thus preventing the second connecting piece 530 from disengaging from the guide sleeve 510.
[0044] In other embodiments, the first connecting piece 520 and the third connecting piece 550 can also be configured as an integral structure. However, it is easier to manufacture the first connecting piece 520 and the third connecting piece 550 separately and then assemble them together, and the dimensional accuracy is easier to control.
[0045] See Figure 2 and Figure 5In some embodiments of the present invention, the socket body 100 is provided with a two-hole slot 120 and / or a three-hole slot 130. A protective door 600 is slidably disposed within the socket body 100 to block the two-hole slot 120 or the three-hole slot 130. A guide protrusion 140 is provided within the socket body 100 for the protective door 600 to slide. The protective door 600 can tilt left and right relative to the guide protrusion 140. A tilt detection unit is provided between the protective door 600 and the socket body 100. The tilt detection unit is electrically connected to a control module and a light-emitting component 700. The control module can control the light-emitting component 700 to switch between a first working state and a second working state. It should be noted that when the plug of an electrical appliance is not inserted into the socket body 100, the protective door 600, under the action of an elastic element, blocks the corresponding two-hole slot 120 or three-hole slot 130, thereby preventing dust and misinsertion. When both the live and neutral wires of the plug are inserted simultaneously, the safety door 600 can slide along the length of the guide strip 140. When an infant or child inserts an object into a single socket, the safety door 600 tilts to the left or right relative to the guide strip 140. This movement of the safety door 600 triggers the tilt detection unit, which transmits a signal to the control module. The control module then controls the light-emitting component 700 to switch to a second operating state. In this embodiment, when the tilt detection unit is not triggered, the light-emitting component 700 is in a first operating state, which can be either off or constantly lit. When the tilt detection unit is not triggered, the light-emitting component 700 switches to a second operating state, which is set to a flashing state to alert the user.
[0046] See Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present invention, the tilt detection unit includes lower protrusions 610 formed on the lower ends of both sides of the protective door 600 in the sliding direction. The socket body 100 is provided with blocking portions 150 corresponding to the two lower protrusions 610. A tactile switch 160 is provided on the end face of the blocking portion 150 facing the lower protrusion 610. The tactile switch 160 is connected to the control module. When the protective door 600 is tilted and slides under pressure, the lower protrusions 610 can abut against the tactile switch 160. When the protective door 600 slides horizontally, the lower protrusions 610 can pass over the blocking portion 150. Specifically, when the protective door 600 tilts to the left or right relative to the guide protrusion 140, one of the lower protrusions 610 swings to face one of the blocking portions 150. When the protective door 600 tilts to one side and the lower protrusion 610 moves to abut against the tactile switch 160.
