When in use, the protective cover can be lifted up to insert the plug of the smart home appliance into the smart socket for use. After searching, the Chinese patent authorization number CN218548892U discloses a waterproof socket for smart home, including a base box, a flip cover is provided on one side of the base box, and a socket block is provided on the inner surface of the flip cover. The utility model is provided with a rebound flap assembly on the inner side of the socket hole. When the plug is pulled out of the socket hole, the flap block will rebound under the action of the rebound spring, close the socket hole from the inside, and prevent the entry of water vapor.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model. Example
[0022] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a smart socket for smart home includes a smart socket body 1 for smart home, and a plug hole 5 is opened at the center position of the front side of the outer surface of the smart socket body 1. An automatic rotation mechanism 2 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the smart socket body 1, and a protective cover 3 matched with the smart socket body 1 is fixedly connected to the movable end of the automatic rotation mechanism 2. The automatic rotation mechanism 2 includes a connecting plate 21 symmetrically fixedly installed on both sides of the outer surface of the smart socket body 1, and a motor 22 is fixedly installed on one side of the outer surface of a single connecting plate 21. The output shaft of the motor 22 is fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 23, and the rotating shaft 23 passes through the protective cover 3 and is fixedly connected to the protective cover 3. A mounting hole is opened on one side of the outer surface of the smart socket body 1, and a controller 24 is embedded and fixedly installed inside the mounting hole. The controller 24 is connected to the motor 22 through a wire. The rotation of the motor 22 drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate, thereby driving the protective cover 3 to rotate, so that the protective cover 3 can be automatically opened and closed, and the operation of the motor 22 can be easily controlled by the provided controller 24, so as to facilitate operation, thereby solving the problem that the flip cover of the existing smart socket needs to be manually operated, and is prone to wear and looseness after long-term use, and cannot be sealed. Example
[0023] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, a sealing protection mechanism 4 is installed between the outer surface of the protective cover 3 and the smart socket body 1, and the sealing protection mechanism 4 includes an opening 41 opened at the bottom of the protective cover 3, and a first semi-annular sealing gasket 42 is fixedly connected inside the opening 41. A mounting seat 43 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer surface of the smart socket body 1 and near the bottom, and a second semi-annular sealing gasket 44 matched with the first semi-annular sealing gasket 42 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the mounting seat 43. When in use, the wire of the plug is placed between the first semi-annular sealing gasket 42 and the second semi-annular sealing gasket 44. When the protective cover 3 is closed, the first semi-annular sealing gasket 42 and the second semi-annular sealing gasket 44 are combined into a complete sealing ring and surround the wire of the plug, so that water vapor can be prevented from entering the smart socket when it is used, and a protective effect is played, thereby solving the problem that although the existing smart socket can protect the smart socket from water vapor when not in use, the flip cover needs to be opened when in use, and water vapor protection cannot be performed.
[0024] The sealing protection mechanism 4 also includes a mounting frame 45 fixedly connected to the inner bottom of the protection cover 3, a spring 46 is fixedly connected to the interior of the mounting frame 45, and the other end of the spring 46 is fixedly connected to a sealing plate 47 slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting frame 45. One side and the bottom of the mounting frame 45 are both open, and the sealing plate 47 is slidably connected to the inner bottom of the protection cover 3. When the smart socket is not in use, the protection cover 3 is closed. At this time, the spring 46 will automatically drive the sealing plate 47 to reset, so that the opening 41 can be blocked to prevent water vapor from entering the smart socket, thereby further improving safety.
[0025] Working principle: When in use, the motor 22 is controlled to rotate by the controller 24, and the rotation of the motor 22 drives the rotating shaft 23 to rotate, thereby driving the protective cover 3 to rotate, so that the protective cover 3 can be automatically opened and closed, and the operation of the motor 22 can be easily controlled by the set controller 24, so as to facilitate operation, thereby solving the problem that the flip cover of the existing smart socket needs to be operated manually, and it is easy to wear and loosen after long-term use, and cannot be sealed. In addition, when in use, the wire of the plug is placed between the first semi-annular sealing gasket 42 and the second semi-annular sealing gasket 44. When the protective cover 3 is closed, the first semi-annular sealing gasket 42 and the second semi-annular sealing gasket 44 are combined into a complete sealing ring and surround the wire of the plug, so that water vapor can be prevented from entering the smart socket when it is used, thereby playing a protective role, thereby solving the problem that although the existing smart socket can protect the smart socket from water vapor when not in use, the flip cover needs to be opened when in use, and water vapor protection cannot be performed.
[0026] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the utility model and the advantages of the utility model. For those skilled in the art, it is obvious that the utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments, and can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or basic features of the utility model. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the utility model is defined by the attached claims rather than the above description, and it is intended to include all changes within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims. Any figure mark in the claims should not be regarded as limiting the claims involved.
