The vertical distance between the center position of the two-prong socket 4 and the top center position of the three-prong socket 5 is 23.5mm±3mm. Specifically, in this design, by setting the vertical distance between the center position of the two-prong socket 4 on the socket panel 2 and the top center position of the three-prong socket 5 to H, and H being set to 23.5mm±3mm, it can effectively avoid the problem of one socket being blocked when a plug is inserted into the other socket due to the excessive size of the two-prong plug or the three-prong plug, thereby improving the use efficiency of the socket.

[0028] Furthermore, an installation cavity is formed in the adapter body 1, and a conductive copper sheet 6 and a power connection sheet 7 are arranged in the installation cavity. One end of the power connection sheet 7 is connected to the conductive copper sheet 6, and the other end of the power connection sheet 7 extends out of the installation cavity and is connected to the rotating seat 3. The conductive copper sheet 6 includes a live copper sheet 8, a neutral copper sheet 9 and a ground copper sheet 10. The live copper sheet 8 and the neutral copper sheet 9 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the ground copper sheet 10. The live copper sheet 8 and the neutral copper sheet 9 are respectively provided with a live two-plug connection terminal 11 and a neutral two-plug connection terminal 12 corresponding to the two-plug jack 4 and a live three-plug connection terminal 13 and a neutral three-plug connection terminal 14 corresponding to the three-plug jack 5. The ground copper sheet 10 has a ground plug terminal 15, and the vertical distance from the center point between the live two-plug connection terminal 11 and the neutral two-plug connection terminal 12 to the center position of the ground plug terminal 15 is 23.5 mm ± 3 mm. Specifically, in this embodiment, by precisely controlling the vertical distances between the live copper sheet 8 and the ground copper sheet 10, as well as the vertical distances between the neutral copper sheet 9 and the ground copper sheet 10, the correct and secure electrical connections between the two-prong jack 4 and the three-prong jack 5 on the socket panel 2 are ensured. Furthermore, the layout design of the conductive copper sheet 6 takes current-carrying capacity into consideration, ensuring that it will not be damaged by overheating when high current flows through it, thereby ensuring the long-term stable operation of the socket.

[0029] Furthermore, the power connection plate 7 includes a live wire power connection plate 35 and a neutral wire power connection plate 36 corresponding to the live wire copper plate 8 and the neutral wire copper plate 9. The live wire copper plate 8 and the neutral wire copper plate 9 are both provided with power connection terminals 16. The power connection terminals 16 are respectively arranged on the side of the live wire copper plate 8 and the neutral wire copper plate 9 away from the center direction of the ground wire copper plate 10. The power connection terminal 16 is provided with an opening facing the slot 17 of the rotating seat 3. The live wire power connection plate 35 and the neutral wire power connection plate 36 extend into the corresponding slot 17 to connect the live wire copper plate 8 and the neutral wire copper plate 9 respectively. The rotating seat 3 is provided with a live wire positioning groove 18 and a neutral wire positioning groove 19. After the live wire power connection plate 35 and the neutral wire power connection plate 36 extend out of the mounting cavity, they extend into the live wire positioning groove 18 and the neutral wire positioning groove 19 respectively. Specifically, in this embodiment, the provision of the connection plate 7 can prevent bending or deformation of the conductive copper sheet 6 due to its excessive length, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the conductive copper sheet 6 within the socket panel 2. In addition, by precisely controlling the connection position between the connection plate 7 and the conductive copper sheet 6, the electrical performance and safety of the socket can be further improved.

[0030] Furthermore, a conductive spring (not shown) is provided on the side of the ground copper sheet 10 close to the rotating seat 3.

One end of the conductive spring is connected to the ground copper sheet 10, and the other end of the conductive spring extends into the ground wire expansion hole 21 and connects to the ground wire contact end 22. Specifically, in this embodiment, the conductive spring is designed to ensure good electrical contact between the ground copper sheet 10 and the ground wire contact end 22, ensuring the reliability of grounding even when the socket is subjected to external force or vibration. The elastic force of the conductive spring enables the contact pressure between the ground copper sheet 10 and the ground wire contact end 22 to be automatically adjusted, thereby avoiding safety hazards caused by poor contact.

[0031] Furthermore, the adapter body 1 includes a panel connection seat 23 and a rotation connection seat 24, wherein the panel connection seat 23 and the rotation connection seat 24 are snap-connected, the panel connection seat 23 is connected to the socket panel 2, and the rotation connection seat 24 is rotationally connected to the rotation seat 3. An arc-shaped guide groove 25 is provided on the end surface of the rotation connection seat 24 near the rotation seat 3. The rotation seat 3 protrudes to form a guide connection end 26 corresponding to the arc-shaped guide groove 25. The guide connection end 26 extends into the arc-shaped guide groove 25 and snap-connected with the rotation connection seat 24. The rotation seat 3 rotates on the rotation connection seat 24 along the arc-shaped guide groove 25 via the guide connection end 26. Specifically, in this embodiment, the arc-shaped guide groove 25 of the rotation connection seat 24 is designed to have a certain curvature to ensure that the rotation seat 3 can move smoothly and stably along the guide groove when rotating. The matching design of the guide connection end 26 and the arc-shaped guide groove 25 ensures that the rotating seat 3 will not become loose or stuck during the rotation process, thereby improving the stability and safety of the entire socket. The guide connection end 26 has a protruding snap-fit ​​structure that can be snapped into the part of the rotating connection seat close to the arc-shaped guide groove 25 to prevent the rotating seat from falling off.

[0032] Furthermore, the inner wall of the panel connection base 23 protrudes into a plurality of panel snap-on ends 27. The outlet panel 2 is provided with panel snap-on slots 28 corresponding to the panel snap-on ends 27. The panel snap-on ends 27 extend into the corresponding panel snap-on slots 28 to snap-on connect with the outlet panel 2. Specifically, in this embodiment, the panel snap-on ends 27 are L-shaped to provide sufficient elasticity and stability when inserted into the panel snap-on slots 28. The interior of the panel snap-on slots 28 is designed to have a certain degree of elasticity, allowing the panel snap-on ends 27 to be slightly compressed during insertion, thereby firmly locking the outlet panel 2 and the panel connection base 23 after being snapped in.

[0033] Furthermore, a decorative ring 29 is provided on the edge of the panel connection base 23 near the socket panel 2. A plurality of fixing ends 30 are protruded from one side of the decorative ring 29 near the panel connection base 23. Fixing holes 31 are provided on the panel connection base 23 corresponding to the fixing ends 30. The fixing ends 30 extend into the corresponding fixing holes 31 to connect to the panel connection base 23. Specifically, in this embodiment, the provision of the fixing ends 30 and fixing holes 31 allows the decorative ring 29 to be detachably fixed to the panel connection base 23, facilitating assembly and disassembly of the decorative ring 29.

[0034] Furthermore, a child lock 32 is provided on the adapter body 1. A lock hole 33 is defined on the adapter body 1. The child lock 32 is movably disposed within the lock hole 33. When the child lock 32 is pressed, one end of the child lock 32 extends into the lock hole 33 and enters the mounting cavity to limit the rotation of the rotating seat 3. Specifically, in this embodiment, an elastic component, such as a spring, is provided at the other end of the child lock 32, so that the child lock 32 can automatically pop out of the lock hole 33 when not pressed, thereby maintaining the locked state of the rotating seat 3. When unlocking is required, the user only needs to press the child lock 32 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic component, causing the inserted end of the child lock 32 to exit the lock hole 33, thereby releasing the limit on the rotating seat 3 and allowing the rotating seat 3 to rotate freely.

[0035] Furthermore, a light ring 34 is disposed within the mounting cavity and is electrically connected to the conductive copper sheet 6. Specifically, in this embodiment, the light ring 34 is made of a transparent material and contains multiple light-emitting diodes (LEDs). When power is supplied to the adapter body 1, current flows through the conductive copper sheet 6 to the light ring 34, causing the LEDs to illuminate, thereby providing an indicator light function.

[0036] The rotating seat 3 has a protruding positioning end 37 on its end surface near the adapter body 1. The center of the positioning end 37 is recessed to form a positioning recess 38. The rotating connecting seat 24 is provided with a positioning portion 39, which has a positioning hole 40. A positioning spring 41 and a positioning pad 42 are disposed within the positioning hole 40. The ends of the positioning pad 42 are connected to the positioning spring 41 and the positioning recess 38, respectively. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the adapter is rotated, the positioning pad 42, under the elastic force of the positioning spring 41, can tightly engage with the positioning recess 38, ensuring a stable connection between the rotating seat 3 and the rotating connecting seat 24. In addition, the material selected for the positioning pad 42 has certain wear resistance and pressure resistance to ensure the reliability and durability of the positioning structure during long-term use. When the positioning pad 42 enters the positioning recess 38, it will make a collision sound to alert the user, thereby confirming that the rotation has reached the desired position. The positioning end and the positioning meter are both provided on the circumference of the opposite end surfaces of the rotating base and the rotating connecting base, so that the gear position can be adjusted to ensure a more stable and accurate connection between the rotating base 3 and the rotating connecting base 24. In actual application, the user can adjust the gear position as needed to adapt to different working environments and requirements.
