It is explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.

[0036] The present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0037] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 ,in, Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the overall structure of a detachable power strip provided in one embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of two adjacent power strip modules after being disassembled is provided in one embodiment of the present application; in this embodiment, a detachable power strip 10 is provided, and the detachable power strip 10 may include a plurality of power strip modules 11 that are detachably connected in sequence, so that the detachable power strip 10 has a variety of different functions.

[0038] Among them, by setting a plurality of socket modules 11 in a detachable connection mode, compared with the solution in the prior art that the socket strip cannot be detached, the detachable socket strip 10 can not only choose to purchase a socket strip module 11 with specific functions according to customer needs, for example, if the user needs to use the detachable socket strip 10 for charging, establishing a wireless network and Bluetooth connection, etc., then the user can choose to purchase only a DC module, an AC module and a Wi-Fi module, without purchasing other modules such as an infrared control module, a HUB module, etc.; or according to actual needs, the existing socket strip modules 11 plugged in on the detachable socket strip 10 can be replaced with socket strip modules 11 with other functions, thereby not only reducing the purchase cost, but also avoiding the problem of some socket strip modules 11 on the detachable socket strip 10 being idle, thereby effectively reducing resource waste and improving the utilization rate of the detachable socket strip 10; at the same time, since the detachable socket strip 10 can be detached, the detachable socket strip 10 can be disassembled and stored during storage to save space and facilitate storage.

[0039] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3A simplified structural diagram of a detachable power strip provided in one embodiment of the present application; one of the power strip modules 11 among the plurality of power strip modules 11, preferably, may be an end power strip module 11 having metal sheets respectively connected to the live wire, the neutral wire and the ground wire, so as to be connected to the power supply and supply power to other power strip modules 11; specifically, the end power strip module 11 may be an AC power module, and the power strip module 11 connected to the AC power module may be a DC power module, so as to convert AC power into DC power through the DC power module, so as to supply power to other subsequently connected power strip modules 11; specifically, other power strip modules 11 may be Wi-Fi modules, Wi-Fi + night light modules, Bluetooth speaker modules, smart sensing modules, infrared control modules, smart sensing modules, air purification modules, HUB modules, wireless charging modules or LED light modules.

[0040] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 A schematic structural diagram of the connection position of two adjacent socket modules provided in one embodiment of the present application; one of the two adjacent socket modules 11 includes a main body 111 and at least a first connecting portion 112 arranged on the main body 111, and the other socket module 11 includes a main body 111 and at least a second connecting portion 113 arranged on the main body 111. The two adjacent socket modules 11 are electrically connected to each other through the cooperation of the first connecting portion 112 and the second connecting portion 113 to supply power to the other socket module 11 and realize the plug-in connection of the two adjacent socket modules 11.

[0041] Among them, see Figure 3 and Figure 4 The first connection portion 112 includes a plug-in slot 1121 and a first conductive member 1122 disposed in the plug-in slot 1121; the second connection portion 113 includes a connector 1131 and a second conductive member 1132 disposed on the connector 1131; in a specific embodiment, the connector 1131 of the strip module 11 is inserted into the plug-in slot 1121 of the adjacent strip module 11 to achieve a plug-in connection between two adjacent strip modules 11; and after the connector 1131 is inserted into the plug-in slot 1121, the first conductive member 1122 contacts the second conductive member 1132 and achieves electrical connection.

[0042] Among them, see Figure 2 The notch of the plug slot 1121 may be oriented perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the plurality of socket modules 11; Figure 2 Taking the direction as an example, the notch of the plug-in slot 1121 can be specifically facing downward; in this way, the side wall of the plug-in slot 1121 (i.e., the engaging wall 1121a involved below) can be used to limit the plug-in module 11 in the arrangement direction of the plug-in module 11 to prevent the plug-in module 11 from falling off along its arrangement direction.

[0043] See also Figure 2, the plug connector 1131 includes a first portion 1131a and a second portion 1132b; wherein the first portion 1131a of the plug connector 1131 is connected to the body 111 and is parallel to the arrangement direction of the plurality of plug strip modules 11; the second portion 1132b of the plug connector 1131 is arranged at an end of the first portion 1131a away from the body 111 and is perpendicular to the first portion 1131a and is arranged opposite to the body 111; in the specific plug-in process, the second portion 1132b of the plug connector 1131 is inserted into the plug-in slot 1121 along a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the plurality of plug strip modules 11 to achieve plug-in connection of two adjacent plug strip modules 11. wherein the plug connector 1131 can be integrally formed with the body 111.

[0044] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the second part 1132b of the plug-in connector 1131 is spaced apart from the main body 111 of the plug-in module 11 where it is located. After two adjacent plug-in modules 11 are plugged in, the side wall of the plug-in slot 1121 close to the adjacent plug-in module 11 is specifically located between the second part 1132b of the plug-in connector 1131 and the main body 111. The side wall of the plug-in slot 1121 located between the second part 1132b of the plug-in connector 1131 and the main body 111 is defined as the fitting wall 1121a below; in order to make the two adjacent plug-in modules 11 fit closely after being plugged in, so as to improve the overall strength while avoiding the single The strip module 11 has a breakage problem at the first part 1131a of the plug-in component 1131. The spacing distance between the second part 1132b of the plug-in component 1131 and the main body 111 of the strip module 11 where it is located can be further made consistent with the wall thickness of the engaging wall 1121a. An interference fit can be achieved after the engaging wall 1121a is embedded between the second part 1132b of the plug-in component 1131 and the main body 111 of the strip module 11 where it is located. Of course, in other embodiments, the spacing distance between the second part 1132b of the plug-in component 1131 and the main body 111 of the strip module 11 where it is located can also be slightly smaller than the wall thickness of the engaging wall 1121a.

[0045] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 The first connecting portion 112 also has a first engaging member 114, and the second connecting portion 113 has a second engaging member 115; two adjacent socket modules 11 are engaged with each other through the first engaging member 114 and the second engaging member 115 to fix the relative positions of the two adjacent socket modules 11 along their plug-in direction to prevent the two adjacent socket modules 11 from falling off along their plug-in direction.

[0046] In order to prevent the two adjacent socket modules 11 from swinging along their arrangement direction after the connector 1131 is inserted into the socket slot 1121, resulting in the two protrusions being unable to engage with each other, the thickness of the connector 1131 can be made consistent with the slot width of the socket slot 1121; wherein the thickness of the connector 1131 and the slot width of the socket slot 1121 both refer to their respective dimensions along the arrangement direction of the plurality of socket modules 11.

[0047] In a specific embodiment, a first engaging member 114 is formed on a portion of the surface of the first conductive member 1122 facing the second conductive member 1132, and a second engaging member 115 is formed on a portion of the surface of the second conductive member 1132 facing the first conductive member 1122. The first engaging member 114 and the second engaging member 115 are engaged with each other during the process of inserting the connector 1131 into the plug-in slot 1121. Specifically, the first engaging member 114 and the second engaging member 115 may be protrusions staggered along their plug-in direction. After the connector 1131 is inserted into the plug-in slot 1121, the two protrusions engage with each other to prevent the connector 1131 from falling from the plug-in slot 1121. Of course, in other embodiments, the first engaging member 114 and the second engaging member 115 may also be structures independent of the first conductive member 1122 and the second conductive member 1132. The present application does not impose any restrictions on this, as long as it can prevent two adjacent socket modules 11 from falling along their plug-in direction.

[0048] In one embodiment, the first conductive member 1122 and / or the second conductive member 1132 may be specifically L-shaped, the plug-in slot 1121 has a bottom wall and a side wall, at least a portion of the first conductive member 1122 extends along the side wall of the plug-in slot 1121 and forms a first conductive portion, and the first engaging member 114 is specifically formed on the first conductive portion; at least a portion of the second conductive member 1132 extends along the second portion 1132b of the plug-in member 1131 and forms a second conductive portion, and the second engaging member 115 is specifically formed on the second conductive portion. In a specific embodiment, the first conductive portion and the second conductive portion are in contact and electrically connected.

[0049] For details, see Figure 5 , Figure 5A cross-sectional view of two adjacent socket modules after being plugged and fixed provided in an embodiment of the present application; a first groove 1121b is formed on the inner side wall of the plug slot 1121, and a portion of the first conductive member 1122 extending along the side wall of the plug slot 1121 is embedded in the first groove 1121b, and the first engaging member 114 protrudes from the opening of the first groove 1121b; a second groove 1131b is provided on the surface of the second portion 1132b of the plug connector 1131 facing the body portion 111 of the socket module 11 in which it is located, and a portion of the second conductive member 1132 located on the plug connector 1131 The first conductive member 1122 and the second conductive member 1132 are respectively embedded in the side wall of the plug-in slot 1121 and the plug-in member 1131 for contact engagement. In this way, the strength of the plug-in slot 1121 and the plug-in member 1131 themselves can be utilized to enable the first conductive member 1122 and the second conductive member 1132 to fit tightly together, thereby preventing elastic deformation of the two during the engagement process, which would lead to poor contact or failure to achieve good engagement and fixation.

[0050] In a specific embodiment, the first groove 1121b can be specifically formed on the inner wall of the engaging wall 1121a of the plug slot 1121, and the second groove 1131b can be formed on a side surface of the second portion 1132b of the connector 1131 facing the main body 111 of the socket module 11 where it is located.

[0051] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 6 A schematic diagram of connectors of two adjacent socket strip modules provided in an embodiment of the present application before being inserted into sockets and fixed; Figure 7 Schematic diagram of the plug-in components of two adjacent socket modules provided in an embodiment of the present application after being inserted into the sockets and fixed; in the specific plug-in process, when the plug-in component 1131 is just inserted into the socket 1121, the first conductive component 1122 and the second conductive component 1132 are misaligned, and the two are not relatively fixed and electrically connected (see Figure 6 ); then the connector 1131 continues to move toward the bottom wall of the insertion slot 1121, so that the first conductive member 1122 and the second conductive member 1132 contact each other and the protrusions on the first conductive member 1122 and the protrusions on the second conductive member 1132 engage with each other (see Figure 7) to fix the connector 1131 in the plug-in slot 1121 while achieving electrical connection, thereby preventing two adjacent connectors 1131 from falling off each other; by inserting the adjacent socket modules 11 into the socket slots 1121, further pushing the connector 1131 forward to achieve snap-in fixation, thereby effectively increasing contact security and reducing the risk of falling; specifically, the snap-in positions of the two protrusions on the first conductive member 1122 and the second conductive member 1132 can be based on the fact that the bottoms of the two socket modules 11 remain flush after being plugged in.

[0052] In one embodiment, see Figure 8 , Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of a socket module provided for an embodiment of the present application having a first connecting portion; when the number of socket modules 11 is two, only the first connecting portion 112 may be provided on one of the socket modules 11, and only the second connecting portion 113 may be provided on the other socket module 11, so as to reduce costs while achieving detachable connection between the two socket modules 11; it can be understood that, in this embodiment, one connecting portion is provided for each socket module 11; of course, in a specific embodiment, each socket module 11 may also be provided with the first connecting portion 112 and the second connecting portion 113, so as to facilitate the addition of socket modules 11 with other functions on the detachable socket 10 according to the actual needs of the customer in the later stage, thereby increasing the function of the detachable socket 10 and expanding the scope of application.

[0053] In another embodiment, see Fig. 9 , Fig. 9 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of a socket module provided for an embodiment of the present application, wherein the socket module has a first connection portion and a second connection portion; the number of the socket modules 11 is at least three, and each of the at least three socket modules 11 except the end socket module 11 includes a first connection portion 112 and a second connection portion 113, and the first connection portion 112 and the second connection portion 113 can be arranged relative to each other, so that both ends of each socket module 11 can be plugged into socket modules 11 with other functions, and multiple socket modules 11 can be arranged in a straight line after being plugged in; of course, in a specific embodiment, the end socket module 11 may also include a first connection portion 112 and a second connection portion 113 arranged relative to each other, and the present application does not limit this.

[0054] See also Figure 5 and Fig.10 , Fig.10 A schematic diagram of the position of a protective door when a connector is not inserted into a socket according to an embodiment of the present application; in one embodiment, in order to protect the first conductive member 1122 of the socket module 11, the socket module 11 may further include a protective door 16.

[0055] The protection door 16 is slidably connected in the plug slot 1121 to cover the plug slot 1121 when the plug connector 1131 is not inserted into the plug slot 1121. For the specific structure, see Fig.10 , to protect the first conductive member 1122 in the plug slot 1121; when the plug connector 1131 of the adjacent plug strip module 11 is inserted into the plug slot 1121, it can move toward the bottom wall of the plug slot 1121 under the pressure of the plug connector 1131 to expose the first conductive member 1122. For the specific structure, see Figure 5 , so that the second conductive member 1132 on the connector 1131 contacts the first conductive member 1122 and realizes electrical connection and detachable connection.

[0056] Specifically, the size of the protective door 16 can be consistent with the size of the plug-in slot 1121, so as to completely cover the plug-in slot 1121 when the connector 1131 is not inserted into the plug-in slot 1121, thereby preventing dust, liquid, etc. from entering the plug-in slot 1121 and affecting the conductivity and other properties of the first conductive component 1122.

[0057] In one embodiment, see Fig.11 , Fig.11 Schematic diagram of the internal structure of a socket module provided in another embodiment of the present application; the socket module 11 may also include an elastic member 17, which is specifically arranged between the protective door 16 and the bottom wall of the plug slot 1121 to drive the protective door 16 to move toward the notch of the plug slot 1121; specifically, when the elastic member 17 is in Figure 5 and Fig.10 In the state shown, both are in elastic compression state, and the elastic member 17 is in Fig.10 The elastic force in the state shown is less than Figure 5 The elastic force of the elastic member 17 in the state shown, so that after the plug-in component 1131 of the adjacent socket module 11 is pulled out of the socket 1121, the protective door 16 can automatically return to the position where the notch of the socket 1121 is located under the elastic force of the elastic member 17 to cover the notch of the socket 1121; of course, when the elastic member 17 is in Fig.10 In the state, the elastic member 17 can also be in a natural extension state.
