Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket technology, specifically to a power socket designed to prevent mis-insertion. Background Technology
[0002] A power socket is a socket installed on a wall or on a wooden board. It connects electrical appliances to provide power to devices such as televisions and computers. Power sockets are usually equipped with safety shutters to prevent children from accidentally inserting their fingers or other sharp objects into the socket, thus avoiding accidents caused by electric shock. When a plug is inserted, the safety shutter is pushed open. After the plug is removed, the safety shutter automatically returns to its original position by an internal spring, resealing the socket.
[0003] When plugs are inserted into existing power sockets, they cannot be inserted completely vertically. As a result, when the plug is pressed against the safety door, the safety door may deflect, causing it to jam and become stuck. This makes it difficult to insert the plug into the power socket, which greatly affects the user experience. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a power socket that prevents mis-insertion, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a power socket designed to prevent mis-insertion, comprising a mounting bracket, a pressure cover installed inside the mounting bracket, and a panel disposed on one side of the mounting bracket. A conductive component is installed inside the mounting bracket, and a terminal block is provided on one side of the conductive component. A safety door is movably installed between the mounting bracket and the pressure cover, and a vertical rod is installed on the safety door. Through holes are provided on the panel, mounting bracket, and pressure cover, and the vertical rod is slidably installed within the through holes. A threaded post is integrally formed on the inner sidewall of the pressure cover, and an adjusting disc is threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded post. A limiting groove is provided inside the safety door, and a limiting post is provided inside the limiting groove. A spring is sleeved on the outer side of the limiting post and the threaded post.
[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the outer ring wall of the adjusting disc is provided with grooves evenly distributed circumferentially, the pressure cover is provided with adjusting holes corresponding to the adjusting disc, and the safety door is provided with inclined surfaces symmetrically on the side near the pressure cover.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 8 This utility model provides a technical solution: a power socket designed to prevent mis-insertion, comprising a mounting bracket 1, a pressure cover 2 installed inside the mounting bracket 1, and a panel 3 disposed on one side of the mounting bracket 1. A conductive element 9 is installed inside the mounting bracket 1, and a terminal block 10 is provided on one side of the conductive element 9. A safety door 7 is movably installed between the mounting bracket 1 and the pressure cover 2. A vertical rod 6 is installed on the safety door 7, and the vertical rod 6 is threadedly connected to the safety door 7, making the vertical rod 6 detachable for easy installation. The vertical rod 6 guides the safety door 7, preventing it from deflecting during movement and becoming stuck. Even if the safety door 7 is stuck, the vertical rod 6 can drive the safety door 7 to move smoothly, preventing the plug from being difficult to insert. Through holes 5 are provided on the panel 3, mounting bracket 1, and pressure cover 2, and the vertical rod 6 is slidably installed within the through holes 5. The device has an integrally formed threaded post 14, with an adjusting disc 15 threadedly connected to the outer side of the threaded post 14. Since the adjusting disc 15 is threadedly connected to the threaded post 14, rotating the adjusting disc 15 will cause the adjusting disc 15 to move and compress the spring 8. Adjusting the position of the adjusting disc 15 can change the degree of compression of the spring 8, thereby adjusting the force required for the plug prongs to press against the safety door 7 to make it move. This can be flexibly adjusted according to usage requirements, improving practicality. The safety door 7 has a limit groove 18 inside, and a limit post 17 is provided inside the limit groove 18. The threaded post 14 and the limit post 17 are used to limit the spring 8 and prevent the spring 8 from shifting during extension and retraction. The spring 8 is sleeved on the outer side of the limit post 17 and the threaded post 14. The spring 8 is used to apply a pushing force to the safety door 7 so that when no plug is inserted, the safety door 7 is always in a position that can block the socket hole 4.
[0024] The outer ring wall of the adjusting disc 15 is provided with grooves 16 evenly distributed around the circumference. The grooves 16 prevent slippage when the adjusting disc 15 is rotated. The pressure cover 2 is provided with an adjusting hole 21 corresponding to the adjusting disc 15. The adjusting hole 21 makes it convenient for the user to rotate the adjusting disc 15. The safety door 7 is provided with symmetrical inclined surfaces 19 on the side near the pressure cover 2. When the plug prongs pass through the socket hole 4, they will contact the inclined surfaces 19. The prongs press against the inclined surfaces 19, thereby causing the safety door 7 to move.
[0025] The mounting bracket 1 has a guide block 22 inside, and a slide groove 13 is provided on one side of the safety door 7. The guide block 22 is slidably connected to the slide groove 13. The guide block 22 and the slide groove 13 work together to guide the safety door 7 and prevent the safety door 7 from deviating during movement.
[0026] The pressure cap 2 has a buckle 20 on one side, and the mounting bracket 1 has an inclined block 23 that cooperates with the buckle 20 inside. The buckle 20 and the inclined block 23 cooperate to fix the pressure cap 2 on the mounting bracket 1.
[0027] The inner wall of the panel 3 is provided with a locking block 12, and the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a locking groove 11 that cooperates with the locking block 12. The locking groove 11 and the locking block 12 cooperate to fix the panel 3 on the mounting bracket 1.
[0028] Both panel 3 and cover 2 have socket holes 4. When the plug prongs pass through the socket holes 4, they will squeeze the safety door 7 to move and eventually come into contact with the conductive component 9 to conduct electricity.
[0029] The mounting bracket 1 is a solid structure and is thickened to improve its structural strength.
[0030] Specifically, during installation, the user can rotate the adjustment disc 15 through the adjustment hole 21. The movement of the adjustment disc 15 compresses the spring 8. Adjusting the position of the adjustment disc 15 changes the degree of compression of the spring 8, thereby adjusting the force required for the plug prongs to press against the safety door 7 and move it. This can be adjusted according to usage requirements. When the prongs on the plug pass through the socket hole 4, they will contact the inclined surface 19. The prongs press against the inclined surface 19, thereby moving the safety door 7. After passing through the safety door 7, the prongs contact the conductive part 9 to conduct electricity. If the safety door 7 is stuck, the user can push the vertical rod 6 to move the safety door 7 to avoid the safety door 7 getting stuck and making it difficult to insert the plug.
