socket

Abstract

The socket comprises a supporting body (10), a plug sleeve unit composed of a plug sleeve (20), a power connection unit composed of a power connection member (30), a movable contact unit (40), a first elastic member (50) and a rotating member (60). The plug sleeve unit and the power connection unit are fixed to the supporting body. The movable contact unit is movably arranged along a movement track on the supporting body to connect and disconnect the electrical connection between the plug sleeve unit and the power connection unit. The first elastic member can drive the movable contact unit to move in a forward direction along the movement track. The rotating member is rotatably connected to the supporting body around a first axis (L1) and has a cam surface (621). The cam surface gradually approaches the first axis along a circumferential direction perpendicular to the first axis. The rotating member rotating in a first clockwise direction (S1) can push the movable contact unit through the cam surface to move the movable contact unit in a reverse direction along the movement track. Thus, the power of the electrical appliance can be cut off without pulling out the plug from the socket.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electrical engineering, and more particularly to a socket. Background Technology

[0002] Track sockets are sockets that can be added, removed, or repositioned at any time within the length of the track. Their advantage lies in the ease with which the position and number of sockets can be adjusted according to the location and quantity of appliances. However, with existing track sockets, power to appliances can only be cut off by unplugging them. Frequent plugging and unplugging can easily cause deformation of contact parts, affecting product performance. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a socket that can disconnect power to electrical appliances without unplugging them.

[0004] This invention provides a socket comprising a support body, a socket unit consisting of several sockets, a power connection unit consisting of several power connectors, a moving contact unit, a first elastic member, and a rotating member. The socket unit and the power connection unit are both fixedly mounted on the support body. The moving contact unit is movably mounted on the support body along a motion trajectory to connect and disconnect the electrical connection between the socket unit and the power connection unit. The first elastic member can apply an elastic force to the moving contact unit to cause the moving contact unit to move in the forward direction along the motion trajectory. The rotating member is rotatably connected to the support body about a first axis. The rotating member has a cam surface. The cam surface gradually approaches the first axis in a circumferential direction perpendicular to the first axis. The rotating member, rotating in a first clockwise direction, can push the moving contact unit through the cam surface, causing the moving contact unit to overcome the elastic force of the first elastic member and move in the opposite direction along the motion trajectory.

[0005] This socket allows users to switch the on / off state between the plug and the power connector by rotating a rotating component. Thus, with an appliance plugged into the socket, rotating the component switches the appliance between being powered on and off. Furthermore, the socket achieves the switching function through the cooperation of a rotating component with a cam surface and a first elastic element; this structure is simple and offers good stability.

[0006] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the movement trajectory is a straight line perpendicular to the first axis. This helps to improve stability during use.

[0007] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, a first elastic member can drive the moving contact unit to move forward along a motion trajectory to a first position. A rotating member can push the moving contact unit to move in the opposite direction along the motion trajectory to a second position via a cam surface. One of the first and second positions is a position where the moving contact unit establishes an electrical connection between the socket unit and the power connection unit, and the other is a position where the moving contact unit disconnects the electrical connection between the socket unit and the power connection unit. The rotating member also has a holding surface. The holding surface extends circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis and is located behind the cam surface in a first clockwise direction. The holding surface is used to abut against the moving contact unit to hold the moving contact unit in the second position. This structure is simple and conveniently holds the moving contact unit in the second position.

[0008] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the rotating member further includes a protrusion. The protrusion is disposed circumferentially between the cam surface and the holding surface, perpendicular to the first axis. The rotating member, when rotated, can push the moving contact unit from a second position to a third position along the opposite direction of the movement trajectory via the protrusion. By providing the protrusion, a tactile feedback is generated during rotation, making it easier for the user to determine the rotation position. In addition, the protrusion can increase the resistance to rotating the member to move the moving contact unit from the holding surface to the cam surface, thus preventing switching caused by accidental rotation of the member.

[0009] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the rotating member includes a rotating ring and a linkage. The rotating ring is rotatably disposed around a first axis within the support body. The linkage is rotatably disposed within the support body about the first axis. A cam surface is disposed on the linkage. The rotating ring and the linkage are interlocked in a direction parallel to the first axis, so that rotating the rotating ring drives the linkage to rotate relative to the support body. This facilitates manual operation.

[0010] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the support body includes several limiting plates. The limiting plates are arranged circumferentially perpendicular to a first axis. Each limiting plate has a limiting surface extending circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis and facing away from the first axis. The limiting surfaces of the limiting plates are equidistant from the first axis. A linkage is rotatably disposed around the limiting plates about the first axis. The space surrounding the limiting plates is used to accommodate the socket unit. This allows for a more compact structure.

[0011] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the socket further includes a second elastic member. The second elastic member can apply an elastic force to the rotating member to drive it to rotate in the opposite direction to the first clockwise direction. This achieves a labor-saving effect and facilitates automatic reset.

[0012] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the support body has an arc-shaped groove. The arc-shaped groove extends circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis. The rotating member has a stop portion. The stop portion is inserted into the arc-shaped groove. The second elastic member is a compression spring and is disposed within the arc-shaped groove along its extension direction. One end of the second elastic member abuts against the stop portion, and the other end abuts against the groove wall of the arc-shaped groove. This structure is simple and has good stability.

[0013] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the moving contact unit includes a slider and a conductive element. The slider is movably connected to the support body along a first direction and the opposite direction. The first direction is the same as the positive direction of the movement trajectory. The front end of the slider along the first direction is used to abut against a cam surface. The rear end of the slider along the first direction has a mounting groove recessed along the first direction. The conductive element can be inserted into the mounting groove along the first direction to achieve assembly with the slider. The first elastic element is a compression spring and can abut against the conductive element along the first direction, causing the conductive element to move along the first direction until it abuts against the socket unit and the power connection unit, thereby connecting the electrical connection between the socket unit and the power connection unit. During the movement of the conductive element along the first direction, it can push the slider to move synchronously along the first direction by abutting against the groove wall of the mounting groove. This facilitates assembly.

[0014] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the mounting groove extends through both sides along a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. A conductive element extends from both sides of the mounting groove along the second direction, passing through a slider. A first elastic element abuts against the portion of the conductive element located within the mounting groove. The two ends of the conductive element extending through the slider along the second direction are respectively used to abut against the socket unit and the power connection unit. This structure provides a more balanced force distribution, which helps improve the reliability of the socket.

[0015] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, a moving contact unit and a first elastic member constitute a conductive component of the socket. The socket is provided with several conductive components. A rotating member is correspondingly provided with several cam surfaces, one of which drives the moving contact unit of one conductive component. The rotating member can simultaneously drive the moving contact units of several conductive components through the several cam surfaces to simultaneously connect or disconnect the electrical connection between the socket unit and the power connection unit.

[0016] In another illustrative embodiment of the socket, the socket is a track socket. The socket also includes a guide slider. The guide slider is rotatably disposed on the support body about a first axis and is used to slide with the track. Attached Figure Description

[0059] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of the invention, specific embodiments of the invention are now described with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, the same reference numerals indicate components with the same or similar structures but the same function.

[0060] In this document, “illustrative” means “serving as an example, illustration or description”, and any illustration or implementation described herein as “illustrative” should not be construed as a more preferred or advantageous technical solution.

[0061] In this document, terms such as "first" and "second" do not indicate their importance or order, but are only used to distinguish them to facilitate the description of the document.

[0062] To keep the drawings simple, each drawing only schematically shows the parts related to the present invention, and they do not represent the actual structure of the product.

[0063] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating one possible implementation of a socket. Figure 2 for Figure 1 The diagram shows an exploded view of a portion of the socket's structure. The socket is, for example, a track socket, but is not limited to this. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the socket includes a support body 10, a socket unit consisting of several sockets 20, a power connection unit consisting of several power connectors 30, a moving contact unit 40, a first elastic member 50, and a rotating member 60. The rotating member 60 is rotatably connected to the support body 10 about a first axis L1.

[0064] The supporting body 10 is composed of, for example, multiple components that are fixedly connected, such as... Figure 2 As shown in this illustrative embodiment, the support body 10 is formed by a panel 11, a base 12, and an internal support member 14 fixedly connected together, but is not limited thereto. The panel 11 is provided with a socket for inserting a plug. The base 12 is used to fix the socket 20 and the power connector 30. Figure 2 Only one socket 20 and one power connector 30 are schematically shown in the diagram.

[0065] The socket 20 is used for conductively engaging with a plug inserted into the socket. The power connector 30 is used for connecting to a power source. In an illustrative embodiment, the number of sockets 20 and power connectors 30 is, for example, two (corresponding to a two-prong socket) or three (corresponding to a three-prong socket), with one socket 20 corresponding to one power connector 30.

[0066] The moving contact unit 40 is movably disposed on the support body 10 along a motion trajectory to connect and disconnect the electrical connection between the socket unit and the power connection unit. In this illustrative embodiment, the motion trajectory of the moving contact unit 40 is a straight line trajectory perpendicular to the first axis L1, but it is not limited thereto. In other illustrative embodiments, the motion trajectory of the moving contact unit 40 may also be, for example, an arc trajectory.

[0067] Specifically, in this illustrative embodiment, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the moving contact unit 40 includes a slider 41 and a conductive element 42. The conductive element 42 has two moving contact heads 421 for making conductive contact. Figure 3 As shown, the moving contact unit 40 is movably connected to the support body 10 along a first direction D1 and the opposite direction of the first direction D1. For ease of explanation, the first direction D1 is interpreted as the positive direction of the movement trajectory of the moving contact unit 40, and the opposite direction of the first direction D1 is interpreted as the reverse direction of the movement trajectory of the moving contact unit 40.

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, the first elastic member 50 can apply an elastic force to the moving contact unit 40 to make the moving contact unit 40 move along the first direction D1 until it abuts against the socket 20 and the power connector 30 (i.e., Figure 3(as shown in the diagram), thereby establishing an electrical connection between the socket 20 and the power connector 30. The first elastic element 50 is, for example, a compression spring, with one end abutting against the support body 10 and the other end abutting against the moving contact unit 40, but is not limited thereto. Figure 3 As shown, in the illustrative embodiment, the socket also includes, for example, a stationary contact 81 fixed to the socket 20 and the power connector 30. The moving contact unit 40 indirectly abuts against the socket 20 and the power connector 30 through the moving contact 421 abutting against the stationary contact 81, thereby connecting the electrical connection between the socket 20 and the power connector 30.

[0069] The rotating component 60 is composed of, for example, multiple parts, such as Figure 2 As shown, in this illustrative embodiment, the rotating member 60 includes a rotating ring 61 and a linkage member 62. For example... Figure 1 As shown, a rotating ring 61 is rotatably mounted around a first axis L1 on the support body 10, and the rotating ring 61 is rotatably connected to an internal support member 14, for example. A linkage member 62 is rotatably mounted within the support body 10 around the first axis L1. Figure 2 As shown, the linkage 62 is provided with a plug-in portion 625. The linkage 62 is plugged into the rotating ring 61 along a direction parallel to the first axis L1 via the plug-in portion 625, so that rotating the rotating ring 61 drives the linkage 62 to rotate synchronously relative to the support body 10. This structure of the rotating member facilitates manual operation, but is not limited to this. In other illustrative embodiments, the rotating member 60 may also be configured with other structures.

[0070] Figure 5 This is a sectional view of the linkage component. (For example...) Figure 5 As shown, the linkage 62 has a cam surface 621 (i.e., the surface located between the two dotted lines on the upper side). The cam surface 621 gradually approaches the first axis L1 along the first clockwise direction S1. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the linkage 62, which rotates in the first clockwise direction S1, can push the moving contact unit 40 through the cam surface 621, causing the moving contact unit 40 to overcome the elastic force of the first elastic member 50 and move in the opposite direction of the first direction D1. This separates the moving contact unit 40 from the stationary contact head 81 fixed to the socket 20 and the power connector 30, thereby disconnecting the electrical connection between the socket 20 and the power connector 30. Figure 6 The display shows the state before rotation in the first clockwise direction S1, at which point the moving contact unit 40 establishes an electrical connection between the socket 20 and the power connector 30. Figure 7 What is displayed is Figure 6 Based on the state after rotating along the first clockwise direction S1, the electrical connection between the socket 20 and the power connector 30 is disconnected. Figure 7 Based on this, rotate the linkage 62 in the opposite direction of the first clockwise direction S1 to Figure 6 At the position shown, the moving contact unit 40 can move along the first direction D1 under the action of the first elastic member 50. Figure 6 The position shown connects the socket 20 and the power connector 30 to the electrical connection. In use, the rotation of the rotating member 60 is achieved, for example, by manually driving the rotating ring 61.

[0071] The socket of this illustrative embodiment allows switching between the on / off states of the socket and the power connector by rotating a rotating member. Thus, with the appliance plugged into the socket, rotating the rotating member allows the appliance to be switched between being powered on and off. Furthermore, the socket of this illustrative embodiment achieves the switching function through the cooperation of a rotating member with a cam surface and a first elastic member; this structure is simple and has good stability.

[0072] For the sake of further explanation, this article will... Figure 6 The position of the moving contact unit 40 is defined as the first position. Figure 7 The position of the moving contact unit 40 is defined as the second position. For example... Figure 5 As shown in the schematic embodiment, the rotating member 60 also has a holding surface 622 (i.e., the surface located between the two dashed lines on the lower side). The holding surface 622 extends circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis L1 and is located on the rear side of the cam surface 621 in the first clockwise direction S1 (the rear side of the direction is the side opposite to the direction). The holding surface 622 is used to abut against the moving contact unit 40 to hold the moving contact unit 40 in the second position. Figure 9 The moving contact unit 40 is in the second position. This structure is simple and can easily maintain the moving contact unit in the second position.

[0073] like Figure 5 As shown, in the illustrative embodiment, the rotating member 60 further includes a protrusion 623. The protrusion 623 is disposed circumferentially between the cam surface 621 and the holding surface 622 along a direction perpendicular to the first axis L1. The rotating member 60, when rotating, can push the moving contact unit 40 from a second position to a third position along the opposite direction of its motion trajectory via the protrusion 623. Figure 8 The moving contact unit 40 is in the third position. Figure 6 Based on the first clockwise direction S1, when the linkage 62 is rotated, it will sequentially experience Figures 6 to 9 state, Figures 6 to 9 The moving contact unit 40 is sequentially located in the first position, second position, third position, and second position. The protrusions create a tactile feedback during rotation, allowing the user to determine the rotation position. Furthermore, the protrusions increase the resistance to the rotating component as it moves the moving contact unit from the holding surface to the cam surface, preventing accidental switching caused by unintended rotation of the rotating component.

[0074] Figure 10This is a top view of the base and linkage components. (Example) Figure 10 As shown, in the illustrative embodiment, the base 12 includes two limiting plates 13. The two limiting plates 13 are arranged circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis L1. Each limiting plate 13 has a limiting surface 131 extending circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis L1 and facing away from the first axis L1. The limiting surfaces 131 of the two limiting plates 13 are equidistant from the first axis L1. A linkage 62 is rotatably disposed around the two limiting plates 13 about the first axis L1. The space (i.e., the central portion) surrounded by the two limiting plates 13 is used to accommodate the insert unit. This allows for a more compact overall structure, saving space. In other illustrative embodiments, the number of limiting plates 13 can be adjusted as needed.

[0075] In the illustrative embodiment, the socket further includes a second elastic member 70. The second elastic member 70 is capable of applying an elastic force to the rotating member 60 to drive the rotating member 60 to rotate in the opposite direction to the first clockwise direction S1. Specifically, as... Figure 2 As shown, in this illustrative embodiment, the support body 10 has two arc-shaped grooves 15. Each arc-shaped groove 15 extends circumferentially perpendicular to the first axis L1. The rotating member 60 has two abutment portions 624. The abutment portions 624 are inserted into the arc-shaped grooves 15. Figure 11 As shown, the socket is provided with two second elastic elements 70, each of which is a compression spring and is disposed within an arc-shaped groove 15 along the extending direction of the arc-shaped groove 15. One end of each second elastic element 70 abuts against the abutment portion 624, and the other end abuts against the groove wall of the arc-shaped groove 15. This achieves a labor-saving effect, facilitating the realization of... Figure 7 The state shown Figure 6 Automatic reset of the indicated state. In other illustrative embodiments, the number of the second elastic element 70, the arcuate groove 15, and the abutment portion 624 can be adjusted accordingly as needed. In other illustrative embodiments, the second elastic element 70 may be omitted, and automatic reset can be achieved by the elastic force of the first elastic element 50.

[0076] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in the schematic embodiment, the slider 41 is movably connected to the support body 10 along a first direction D1 and the opposite direction of the first direction D1. The front end of the slider 41 along the first direction D1 (i.e., Figure 4 The upper end of the slider 41 is used to abut against the cam surface 621. The rear end of the slider 41 along the first direction D1 (i.e. Figure 4The lower end of the component has a recessed mounting groove 411 along the first direction D1. The conductive component 42 can be inserted into the mounting groove 411 along the first direction D1 to achieve assembly with the slider 41. The first elastic component 50 is a compression spring and can abut against the conductive component 42 along the first direction D1, causing the conductive component 42 to move along the first direction D1 until it abuts against the socket 20 and the power connector 30, thereby establishing an electrical connection between the socket 20 and the power connector 30. During the movement of the conductive component 42 along the first direction D1, it can push the slider 41 to move synchronously along the first direction D1 by abutting against the groove wall of the mounting groove 411. This structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0077] like Figure 4 As shown in the schematic embodiment, the assembly groove 411 extends through both sides along a second direction D2 perpendicular to the first direction D1. The conductive element 42 extends from the slider 41 through both sides of the assembly groove 411 along the second direction D2. The first elastic element 50 abuts against the portion of the conductive element 42 located within the assembly groove 411. The two ends of the conductive element 42 extending through the slider 41 along the second direction D2 are respectively used to abut against the socket 20 and the power connector 30. This structure provides a more balanced force distribution, which helps improve the reliability of the socket.

[0078] exist Figure 2 In the illustrative embodiment shown, only one pair of sockets 20 and power connectors 30 are electrically connected via the moving contact unit 40; the remaining sockets 20 and power connectors 30 are directly connected via conductive elements (e.g., wires), but are not limited to this. For ease of explanation, we refer to the structure consisting of one moving contact unit 40 and one first elastic element 50 as a conductive component 90 of the socket. In other illustrative embodiments, the number of conductive components 90 and cam surfaces 621 can be adjusted accordingly as needed. For example, in Figure 12 In the schematic embodiment shown, the socket is provided with two conductive components 90. The rotating member 60 is correspondingly provided with two cam surfaces 621, one of which drives the moving contact unit 40 of one conductive component 90. The rotating member 60 can simultaneously push the moving contact units 40 of both conductive components 90 through the two cam surfaces 621, thereby simultaneously connecting or disconnecting the electrical connection between the two pairs of sockets 20 and the power connector 30.

[0079] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this illustrative embodiment, the socket is a track socket. The socket also includes a guide slider 82. The guide slider 82 is rotatably disposed on the base 12 about a first axis L1 and is used to slide with a track, such as a trough-type electric track. However, it is not limited to this; in other illustrative embodiments, the socket is not limited to a track socket and can be other types of sockets.

[0080] It should be understood that although this specification is described according to various embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This way of describing the specification is only for clarity. Those skilled in the art should regard the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other implementation methods that can be understood by those skilled in the art.

[0081] The detailed descriptions listed above are merely specific illustrations of feasible embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent implementation schemes or modifications made without departing from the spirit of the present invention, such as combinations, divisions or repetitions of features, should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
