Abstract

The present disclosure provides a socket, belonging to the technical field of electrical equipment. The socket is used for being mounted on a mounting plate, and comprises a socket body, one or more clamps and a locking member. The clamp is fixedly connected with a first side wall of the socket body. The locking member is located on the first side wall and can extend out and retract relative to the first side wall. In the process of mounting the socket, the clamp is first extended into a mounting hole of the mounting plate, and then the clamp is clamped with the wall of the mounting hole, and then the locking member is extended out of the first side wall, so that the locking member cooperates with the mounting plate to prevent the clamp from being separated from the mounting plate, and the mounting of the socket is completed. In the process of dismounting the socket, the locking member is first retracted into the first side wall, and then the clamp is separated from the mounting plate, and then the clamp is pulled out of the mounting hole, and the dismounting of the socket is completed. It can be seen that the mounting and dismounting of the socket are very simple.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of electrical equipment technology, and specifically to a socket. Background Technology

[0002] While ordinary extension cord sockets can provide convenient power access, they are not easy to secure on a desktop, so they can easily fall off and cause safety hazards.

[0003] One related technology provides an embedded socket that can be fixed to a table via a mounting plate. Specifically, the mounting plate is suspended from the underside of the table, and the socket is mounted on the mounting plate with multiple screws. Furthermore, an opening is provided on the tabletop corresponding to the socket for cable routing.

[0004] However, the method of mounting the socket on the mounting plate with screws makes the installation and removal of the socket quite cumbersome. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This disclosure provides a socket that solves the technical problems existing in the related art. The technical solution of the socket is as follows:

[0006] This disclosure provides a socket for mounting on a mounting plate, the socket including a socket body, one or more clips and a locking element;

[0007] The clip is fixedly connected to the first side wall of the socket body, and the clip is configured to extend into the mounting hole of the mounting plate and engage with the plate wall on one side of the mounting hole;

[0008] The locking member is located on the first sidewall and can extend and retract relative to the first sidewall. The locking member is configured to cooperate with the mounting plate in the locked state to prevent the clip from disengaging from the mounting plate, and to separate from the mounting plate in the unlocked state.

[0016] The cam is rotatably connected to the socket body, and the axis of rotation is parallel to the first side wall;

[0017] One end of the second elastic member abuts against the inner wall of the socket body, and the other end abuts against the cam. The second elastic member is configured to push the cam out of the first side wall.

[0018] In one possible implementation, the card holder includes a first card holder;

[0019] The locking member is located on the second side of the first clip, the second side being opposite to the first side of the first clip, and the first side of the first clip being used to engage with the mounting plate;

[0020] The locking member is configured such that, in the locked state, it extends into the same mounting hole as the first clip.

[0021] In one possible implementation, the socket body includes a main body and a plate body;

[0022] The plate portion is confined within the main body portion, and the locking member is movably connected to the plate portion;

[0023] The first clip is located outside the main body and is fixedly connected to the plate.

[0024] In one possible implementation, the card holder further includes a second card holder;

[0025] The second clip is configured to extend into a different mounting hole than the locking member.

[0026] In one possible implementation, the first clip and the second clip are located on opposite sides of the socket body along its length.

[0027] In one possible implementation, the locking element and the clip are arranged at intervals;

[0028] The locking element is configured to extend into the locking hole of the mounting plate in the locked state.

[0029] In one possible implementation, the first sidewall is the sidewall of the socket facing away from the socket.

[0030] The technical solution provided in this disclosure includes at least the following beneficial effects:

[0031] This disclosure provides a socket, which includes a socket body, a clip, and a locking member. The clip is fixedly connected to a first side wall of the socket body, and the locking member is located on the first side wall of the socket body and is capable of extending and retracting relative to the first side wall.

[0032] To install the socket, first insert the clip into the mounting hole of the mounting plate and engage it with the side wall of the mounting hole. Then, extend the locking element from the first side wall; the locking element will then engage with the mounting plate, preventing the clip from disengaging. The socket installation is now complete. To remove the socket, first retract the locking element to the first side wall, then disengage the clip from the mounting plate and pull the clip out of the mounting hole. The socket removal is now complete. As you can see, both installation and removal of the socket are very simple.

[0059] The accompanying drawings have illustrated specific embodiments of this disclosure, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the concept in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of this disclosure to those skilled in the art through reference to particular embodiments. Detailed Implementation

[0060] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this disclosure clearer, the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0061] The terminology used in the embodiments of this disclosure is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the disclosure. Unless otherwise defined, the technical or scientific terms used in the embodiments of this disclosure should have the ordinary meaning understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure pertains. The terms "first," "second," and similar terms used in this specification and claims do not indicate any order, quantity, or importance, but are merely used to distinguish different components. Similarly, "a" or "one," and similar terms do not indicate a quantity limitation, but rather indicate the presence of at least one. The terms "comprising," "including," and similar terms mean that the elements or objects preceding "comprising" encompass the elements or objects listed following "comprising" or "including," and their equivalents, but do not exclude other elements or objects. "Upper," "lower," "left," "right," etc., are used only to indicate relative positional relationships; when the absolute position of the described object changes, the relative positional relationship may also change accordingly. "A plurality" refers to two or more, unless otherwise expressly defined.

[0062] As living standards rise and the variety of electrical appliances increases, the need for electricity in daily life becomes more frequent and its application scenarios become more widespread. While ordinary extension cord sockets can provide convenient access to electricity, their lack of secure fixing makes them prone to slipping off tabletops, posing a safety hazard.

[0063] Some embedded sockets exist in related technologies. One type uses double-sided tape to stick to the edge of the table, which is not easily removable, inconvenient to use, and has poor stability. Another type involves mounting a plate on the underside of the table, with the socket attached to the plate using multiple screws. However, mounting the socket to the plate with screws makes installation and removal cumbersome and inconvenient to use.

[0064] In view of the above-mentioned technical problems, this disclosure provides a novel socket 1, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the socket 1 can be conveniently, reliably and safely installed on the mounting plate 2, providing users with a safer and more reliable power supply environment.

[0065] This disclosure provides a socket 1, such as Figure 2 As shown, the socket 1 includes a socket body 11, one or more clips 12, and a locking member 13. The clips 12 are fixedly connected to a first sidewall 111 of the socket body 11. The clips 12 are configured to extend into a mounting hole 20 of the mounting plate 2 and engage with one side wall of the mounting hole 20. The locking member 13 is located on the first sidewall 111 and can extend and retract relative to the first sidewall 111. The locking member 13 is configured to, in the locked state, cooperate with the mounting plate 2 to prevent the clips 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2, and in the unlocked state, separate from the mounting plate 2.

[0066] In this embodiment, the specific form of the socket 1 is not limited. In some examples, the socket 1 can be a common extension cord, and in other examples, the socket 1 can be a cube socket.

[0067] The socket body 11 is the main part of the socket 1, used to realize the basic power supply and absorption functions of the socket 1. In some examples, the socket body 11 includes a housing, a socket sleeve, an extension cord, and a safety shutter assembly, etc.

[0068] The first sidewall 111 can be any sidewall different from the sidewall where the socket is located. In some examples, the first sidewall 111 can be a sidewall that extends along the length direction of the socket body 11. For example, the first sidewall 111 is the sidewall of the socket 1 facing away from the socket.

[0069] The clip 12 is used to engage with the mounting plate 2. First, the clip 12 extends into the mounting hole 20, and then moves to one side to engage with the plate wall on one side of the mounting hole 20. Without the locking element 13 obstructing it, the clip 12 can move freely within the mounting hole 20 and can disengage from the mounting plate 2. The clip 12 limits the position of the socket 1 in the direction perpendicular to the mounting plate 2.

[0070] The locking element 13 is used to prevent the clip 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2, thereby limiting the position of the socket 1 in a direction parallel to the mounting plate 2. Thus, the clip 12 and the locking element 13 cooperate to stably fix the socket 1 on the mounting plate 2.

[0071] The locking member 13 can extend and retract relative to the first sidewall 111. In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the locking member 13 can retract relative to the first sidewall 111, which can be either fully retracted or partially retracted. That is, the retracted state of the locking member 13 is sufficient to retract relative to the extended state.

[0072] When installing socket 1, as follows Figure 3 As shown, first insert the clip 12 into the mounting hole 20 of the mounting plate 2. Then, engage the clip 12 with the plate wall on one side of the mounting hole 20. Finally, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, when the locking member 13 extends out of the first side wall 111, the locking member 13 engages with the mounting plate 2, the blocking clip 12 disengages from the mounting plate 2, and the installation of the socket 1 is completed.

[0073] When disassembling socket 1, first retract the locking member 13 into the first side wall 111, so that the clip 12 is no longer obstructed. Then, disengage the clip 12 from the mounting plate 2 and pull the clip 12 out of the mounting hole 20. The disassembly of socket 1 is then complete.

[0074] As can be seen, the socket 1 provided in this embodiment can be reliably and safely installed on the mounting plate 2, and the installation and removal of the socket 1 are very simple. Furthermore, the socket 1 will not damage furniture or other carriers during the installation and removal process, and can be installed without damage to furniture or other carriers.

[0075] The following is a more detailed illustrative description of the various components involved in socket 1:

[0076] In some examples, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the clip 12 includes a connecting portion 121 and a protrusion 122. One end of the connecting portion 121 is fixedly connected to the first side wall 111. The protrusion 122 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting portion 121, and a space for engaging with the mounting plate 2 is formed between the protrusion 122 and the first side wall 111.

[0077] The card holder 12 can be a plastic card holder or a metal card holder; this embodiment does not limit the type of card holder.

[0078] The present invention does not limit the number of clips 12. In some examples, in order to improve the stability of the socket 1 on the mounting plate 2, there are at least two clips 12, and the at least two clips 12 are respectively distributed on both sides of the socket body 11 in the length direction.

[0079] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are three clips 12, with two clips 12 located on one side of the socket body 11 in the length direction and the other clip 12 located on the other side of the socket body 11 in the length direction.

[0080] The connection between the connecting part 121 and the first sidewall 111 can be an integral molding connection, such as integral injection molding, but is not limited thereto. For example, the connecting part 121 can also be fixed to the first sidewall 111 by screws.

[0081] The present disclosure does not limit the implementation of the locking member 13 extending and retracting relative to the first sidewall 111. Several possible implementations are provided below:

[0082] (1) As Figure 7As shown, the locking member 13 includes a locking strip 131 and a first elastic member 132. The locking strip 131 is slidably connected to the socket body 11, and the sliding direction intersects with the first sidewall 111. One end of the first elastic member 132 abuts against the inner wall of the socket body 11, and the other end abuts against the locking strip 131. The first elastic member 132 is configured to push the locking strip 131 out of the first sidewall 111.

[0083] The first elastic element 132 can be a compression spring and is in a compressed state.

[0084] The sliding direction of the locking bar 131 can be perpendicular to the first sidewall 111.

[0085] When no external force is applied, the locking strip 131 remains extended from the first sidewall 111 under the push of the first elastic member 132. Thus, after the socket 1 and the mounting plate 2 are installed, the locking strip 131 remains in the extended state and cooperates with the mounting plate 2 to prevent the clip 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2.

[0086] When it is necessary to remove the socket 1, the user first drives the locking bar 131 to retract against the thrust of the first elastic element 132, and then removes the socket 1 from the mounting plate 2.

[0087] like Figure 8 As shown, the locking bar 131 includes a locking bar body 1311, two limiting blocks 1312, and a mounting post 1313. The two limiting blocks 1312 are located on both sides of the locking bar body 1311 and are used to mate with the inner wall of the socket body 11 (e.g., Figure 9 (As shown), to prevent the locking strip 131 from fully extending out of the socket body 11. The mounting post 1313 is located at the end of the locking strip body 1311 located inside the socket body 11, and the mounting post 1313 is used for the first elastic member 132 to be looped.

[0088] (2) Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, the locking member 13 includes a cam 133 and a second elastic member 134. The cam 133 is rotatably connected to the socket body 11, and the axis of rotation is parallel to the first sidewall 111. One end of the second elastic member 134 abuts against the inner wall of the socket body 11, and the other end abuts against the cam 133. The second elastic member 134 is configured to push the cam 133 out of the first sidewall 111.

[0089] The second elastic element 134 can be a torsion spring. The rotation axis of the cam 133 can be parallel to the length direction of the socket body 11.

[0090] like Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown in the upper part, the cam 133 remains extended from the first sidewall 111 under the push of the second elastic member 134 when no other external force is applied. Thus, after the socket 1 and the mounting plate 2 are installed, the cam 133 remains in the extended state and cooperates with the mounting plate 2 to prevent the clip 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2.

[0091] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown in the lower part, when it is necessary to remove the socket 1, the user drives the cam 133 to rotate into the interior of the first sidewall 111 against the thrust of the second elastic element 134, the clip 12 loses its obstruction, and then the socket 1 is removed from the mounting plate 2.

[0092] In some examples, the socket body 11 has a baffle 115 inside, one end of the second elastic member 134 can abut against the baffle 115, and the other end abuts against the cam 133.

[0093] The present disclosure does not limit the implementation method of the locking member 13 extending out of the first sidewall 111 to cooperate with the mounting plate 2 to prevent the clip 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2. In some examples, the locking member 13 may extend into the mounting plate 2 to prevent the clip 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2.

[0094] For example, in some examples, the locking element 13 extends into the mounting hole 20 of the mounting plate 2. In other examples, the locking element 13 extends into the locking hole 21 of the mounting plate 2. The locking hole 21 and the mounting hole 20 are different.

[0095] The following provides more detailed examples of these two scenarios:

[0096] (1) As Figure 12 As shown, the clip 12 includes a first clip 12a. A locking member 13 is located on a second side of the first clip 12a, opposite to the first side of the first clip 12a, the first side of which is used to engage with the mounting plate 2. The locking member 13 is configured to extend into the same mounting hole 20 as the first clip 12a.

[0097] After the locking member 13 and the first clip 12a are inserted into the same mounting hole 20, the width of the portion of the locking member 13 and the first clip 12a located in the mounting hole 20 is the same as the width of the mounting hole 20, or slightly smaller than the width of the mounting hole 20.

[0098] In this way, when the first clip 12a moves toward the second side (i.e., the direction of separation from the mounting plate 2), the locking member 13 will touch the wall of the mounting hole 20, thereby preventing the first clip 12a from separating from the mounting plate 2, thus fixing the socket 1 and the mounting plate 2 together.

[0099] When you want to remove the socket 1, control the locking member 13 to retract so that the locking member 13 no longer blocks the first clip 12a. Then the first clip 12a can be properly disengaged from the mounting plate 2 and pulled out from the mounting hole 20.

[0100] To facilitate the insertion of the locking element 13 into the mounting hole 20, in some examples, such as Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the locking bar 131 has a guide surface 1310 on the side away from the first clip 12a. The guide surface 1310 is inclined to the sliding direction of the locking bar 131 and faces away from the first sidewall 111. The presence of the guide surface 1310 makes it easier for the locking member 13 to extend into the interior of the mounting hole 20.

[0101] The first clip 12a corresponds one-to-one with the locking member 13. This embodiment does not limit the number of first clips 12a; in some examples, such as... Figure 12 As shown, there is only one first clip 12a and one locking element 13. This allows the user to easily control the retraction of the locking element 13.

[0102] The following is an exemplary description of how the first clip 12a is connected to the socket body 11:

[0103] In some examples, such as Figure 13 As shown, the socket body 11 includes a main body portion 112 and a plate portion 113. The plate portion 113 is located inside the main body portion 112, and the locking member 13 is movably connected to the plate portion 113. The first clip 12a is located outside the main body portion 112 and is fixedly connected to the plate portion 113.

[0104] The movable connection between the locking member 13 and the plate body 113 can be a sliding connection or a rotating connection.

[0105] In some examples, such as Figure 14 As shown, the plate body 113 and the first clip 12a can be integrally formed, for example, integrally injection molded.

[0106] In addition, such as Figure 12 As shown, in addition to the first clip 12a, the clip 12 also includes a second clip 12b. The second clip 12b is configured to extend into a different mounting hole 20 than the locking member 13.

[0107] The main difference between the second clip 12b and the first clip 12a is that the first clip 12a has a corresponding locking element 13, while the second clip 12b does not have a corresponding locking element 13. The second clip 12b and the locking element 13 extend into different mounting holes 20. The locking element 13 corresponding to the first clip 12a refers to the locking element 13 located on the second side of the first clip 12a.

[0108] The function of the second clip 12b is to enhance the limiting of the socket 1 in the direction perpendicular to the mounting plate 2, while the limiting in the horizontal direction is achieved by the first clip 12a and the locking member 13.

[0109] To ensure a more stable fixation of socket 1 on mounting plate 2, in some examples, such as... Figure 12 As shown, the first clip 12a and the second clip 12b are located on both sides of the socket body 1 in the length direction.

[0110] The number of the first card holder 12a and the second card holder 12b is not limited in the embodiments disclosed herein. In some examples, there is one first card holder 12a and two second card holders 12b.

[0111] Furthermore, the structures of the first card holder 12a and the second card holder 12b may be the same or different, and this disclosure does not limit this. In some examples, such as Figure 12 As shown, the length L1 of the first card holder 12a is greater than the length L2 of the second card holder 12b.

[0112] To simplify the manufacturing of socket 1, in some examples, such as Figure 15 As shown, the second clip 12b can be integrated with the end cap 114 of the socket body 11.

[0113] Below, in conjunction with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The installation process of socket 1 is illustrated by way of example, based on the above content:

[0114] First, align the clips 12 (first clip 12a and second clip 12b) of the socket 1 with the mounting holes 20 on the mounting plate 2.

[0115] The second step, as Figure 3 As shown, the clip 12 is pressed into the mounting hole 20. During this process, because the locking member 3 is blocked by the wall of the mounting plate 2, the locking member 3 will gradually retract, and the elastic element (first elastic element 132 or second elastic element 134) in the locking member 3 will store energy.

[0116] The third step, as Figure 4 As shown, pushing the socket 1 to one side a certain distance completes the engagement between the clip 12 and the mounting plate 2. Simultaneously, since the locking member 13 is no longer blocked by the wall of the mounting plate 2, under the action of the elastic member, the locking member 13 extends into the mounting hole 20, preventing the clip 12 from disengaging from the mounting plate 2, thus completing the installation process of the socket 1.

[0117] When it is necessary to disassemble socket 1, push the locking member 13 to retract, and the clip 12 will no longer be obstructed. Then, push socket 1 a distance to the other side, and the clip 12 will disengage from the mounting plate 2. Finally, pull the clip 12 out of the mounting hole 20, and the disassembly process of socket 1 is completed.

[0118] (2) The locking member 13 may also be inserted into the same mounting hole 20 without any clip 12. The mounting plate 2 may have a separate locking hole 21 for the locking member 13.

[0119] In some examples, such as Figure 16 As shown, the locking member 13 and the clip 12 are arranged at intervals. The locking member 13 is configured to extend into the locking hole 21 of the mounting plate 2 in the locked state.

[0120] The embodiments disclosed herein do not limit the position of the locking member 13. In some examples, such as Figure 16 As shown, the locking element 13 is located in the middle of the socket body 11. In other examples, the locking element 13 may also be located on one side of the socket body 11 in the longitudinal direction.

[0121] This disclosure also provides a mounting plate 2, such as... Figure 17 As shown, the mounting plate 2 has a groove-shaped structure and multiple mounting holes 20 on its bottom wall. The multiple mounting holes 20 can accommodate sockets 1 of different lengths, thereby improving the applicability of the mounting plate 2.

[0122] like Figure 18 As shown, another mounting plate 2 is shown, which has a groove-shaped structure and has a plurality of mounting holes 20 and a locking hole 21 on the bottom wall of the mounting plate 2.

[0123] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of this disclosure and is not intended to limit this disclosure. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the principles of this disclosure should be included within the protection scope of this disclosure.
