Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0048] Example:

[0049] like Figure 1-Figure 9 As shown, a power socket comprises:

[0050] Socket body 1, flip cover 2 and steering pin 3;

[0051] The positive and negative electrodes at the ends of the socket body 1 are connected to an external power supply device, and the socket body 1 is provided with a slot for accommodating the plug 13 to be inserted;

[0052] The flip cover 2 is rotatably mounted at the slot opening of the socket body 1, and the pivot hole 22 on the flip cover 2 and the shaft hole 111 of the socket body 1 are penetrated by the steering pin 3. The flip cover 2 rotates around the steering pin 3 to seal the slot opening of the socket body 1, and the pivot hole 22 and the shaft hole 111 are both provided with a square block 21;

[0053] The side wall of the steering pin 3 is provided with a tooth-shaped notch 31 along the length direction, and the tooth-shaped notch 31 is inserted and matched with the clamping block 21. When the flip cover 2 is flipped and opened, the steering pin 3 drives the flip cover 2 to flip and reset.

[0054] It should be noted that the socket body 1 is used to connect the flip cover 2, the steering pin 3 and other equipment; the flip cover 2 is used to insert the plug 13 when it is opened, and to seal the upper end of the socket body 1 when it is closed to prevent dust from entering; the steering pin 3 is used to connect the shaft hole 22 and the shaft hole 111, so that the flip cover 2 can be flipped and reset when necessary.

[0055] An elastic magnetic resistance unit 5 is installed on the flip cover 2. When the flip cover 2 is closed, the elastic magnetic resistance unit 5 is located on the end face of the flip cover 2 facing the slot of the socket body 1. The elastic magnetic resistance unit 5 includes a magnetic frame 51, an aluminum sheet 52 and a floating adjustment group 53. The magnetic frame 51 is fixedly installed on the flip cover 2 in an overhead manner. The magnetic frame 51 and the magnetic strip 6 fixedly installed on the socket body 1 are magnetically adsorbed and matched. The aluminum sheet 52 is slidably installed on the flip cover 2. The aluminum sheet 52 is located between the magnetic frame 51 and the steering pin 3. When the plug 13 is inserted into the slot, the protrusion 131 on the plug 13 squeezes the aluminum sheet 52, and the aluminum sheet 52 is inserted between the magnetic frame 51 and the magnetic strip 6. The floating adjustment group 53 is arranged at both ends of the aluminum sheet 52 in the length direction. The floating adjustment group 53 drives the aluminum sheet 52 to elastically reset.

[0056] It should be noted that when the aluminum sheet 52 is squeezed by the protrusion 131, the magnetic connection between the magnetic frame 51 and the magnetic strip 6 is disconnected, so that the flip cover 2 can be flipped over the plug 13. When the plug 13 is pulled out, the flip cover 2 automatically flips and resets, allowing the operator to operate with one hand, saving the operator's time.

[0057] The magnetic frame 51 includes a magnetic sheet 511 and a plurality of aluminum rods 512 . The magnetic sheet 511 is fixed to one end of the plurality of aluminum rods 512 , and the other ends of the plurality of aluminum rods 512 are fixedly disposed on the flip cover 2 .

[0058] It should be noted that the aluminum rod 512 is used to prevent the aluminum sheet 52 from being magnetically connected to the magnetic sheet 511 and the magnetic strip 6 when the aluminum sheet 52 is interposed between the magnetic sheet 511 and the magnetic strip 6 .

[0059] A rectangular notch 520 is provided in the middle of one side of the aluminum sheet 52 close to the plug 13 , and the rectangular notch is configured to conform to the shaft hole 111 . A mounting groove 521 for accommodating the floating adjustment group 53 is symmetrically provided on the aluminum sheet 52 .

[0060] It should be noted that the rectangular notch 520 is used to prevent the aluminum sheet 52 from colliding with the shaft hole 111 when elastically sliding.

[0061] The floating adjustment group 53 includes a fixed seat 531, a movable seat 532 and a spring 533. The fixed seat 531 is fixed on the end face of the flip cover 2 facing the slot of the socket body 1. The movable seat 532 is symmetrically arranged with the fixed seat 531, and the movable seat 532 is vertically arranged on the aluminum sheet 52. The two ends of the spring 533 are respectively mounted on the fixed seat 531 and the movable seat 532.

[0062] The length of the aluminum sheet 52 is smaller than the length of the magnetic frame 51 .

[0063] It should be noted that when the length of the aluminum sheet 52 is smaller than the magnetic frame 51 , it is convenient for the aluminum sheet 52 to slide elastically without hindrance.

[0064] The magnetic sheet 511 is arranged in a conformal manner to the magnetic strip 6 .

[0065] The width of the magnetic sheet 511 is smaller than the sliding distance of the aluminum sheet 52 after being squeezed by the protrusion 131 .

[0066] It should be noted that the sliding distance of the aluminum sheet 52 after being squeezed is greater than the width of the magnetic sheet 511 to prevent the magnetic resistance effect of the aluminum sheet 52 from being affected.

[0067] When the aluminum sheet 52 is not squeezed by the protrusion 131 , the magnetic sheet 511 maintains magnetic connection with the magnetic strip 6 ; when the aluminum sheet 52 is squeezed by the protrusion 131 and passes through the entire magnetic frame 51 , the magnetic connection between the magnetic sheet 511 and the magnetic strip 6 is disconnected.

[0068] The socket body 1 includes, from top to bottom, a mounting ring 14, an inner tube 4, a porcelain seat 8, a negative electrode plug 9, an insulating gasket 10, an elastic gasket 11 and a positive electrode plug 12;

[0069] The mounting ring 14 is rotatably mounted and connected to the flip cover 2;

[0070] The inner cylinder 4 is sleeve-connected with the mounting ring 14;

[0071] The ceramic seat 8 , the negative electrode plug 9 , the insulating gasket 10 , the elastic gasket 11 and the positive electrode plug 12 are connected and installed at the end of the inner tube 4 through rivets 7 .

[0072] Working process:

[0073] When the flip cover 2 is in the closed state, open the flip cover 2. In the absence of external force, the steering pin 3 can drive the flip cover 2 to flip and reset; when the flip cover 2 is opened to 180°, the magnetic piece 511 is magnetically connected to the magnetic strip 6, and the flip cover 2 cannot be flipped and reset; at this time, the plug 13 is inserted, and the protrusion 131 on the plug 13 squeezes the aluminum sheet 52, and the floating adjustment group 53 drives the aluminum sheet 52 to slide elastically, and the aluminum sheet 52 is inserted between the magnetic frame 51 and the magnetic strip 6, so that the magnetic connection between the magnetic piece 511 and the magnetic strip 6 is disconnected, and the flip cover 2 is flipped and reset to the top of the plug 13; after the plug 13 is used, the plug 13 is pulled out, and the flip cover 2 is flipped and reset, sealing the slot opening of the socket body 1 to prevent dust from entering.

[0074] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
