These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure in any way, but to illustrate the concepts of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0065] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0066] It should be noted that, unless otherwise defined, the technical terms or scientific terms used herein should have the common meanings understood by persons having ordinary skills in the field to which the present disclosure belongs.

[0067] In the description of the present disclosure, some directional terms are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present disclosure and simplifying the description. They do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the present disclosure. In the embodiments of the present disclosure, such as "upper", "lower", "side", etc., generally, Figure 1 The relative relationship of the orientation shown in the figure is used as the basis, and these orientation terms are used only to more clearly describe the relationship between structures, not to describe absolute orientation. When the product is placed in different postures, the orientation may change, for example, "up" and "down" may be interchangeable.

[0068] In order to make the technical solutions and advantages of the present disclosure more clear, the embodiments of the present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0069] Figure 1 The diagram is a schematic diagram of the structure of an adapter provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein the left diagram is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the adapter, and the right diagram is a schematic diagram of the split structure of the adapter. Figure 1 The adapter 1 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a first shell 11, a snap-action mechanism 12, a socket assembly 13 and an electrode contact 14, wherein the snap-action mechanism 12 and the socket assembly 13 are installed in the first shell 11; the first shell 11 includes a base 111 and a cover 112, the cover 112 is rotatably arranged on the base 111, the panel 1121 of the cover 112 has a latch hole 113, and the side wall of the base 111 has an opening 114; the electrode contact 14 is electrically connected to the socket assembly 13, and the electrode contact 14 and the cover 112 are respectively connected to the snap-action mechanism 12.

[0070] When the cover 112 is rotated to make the instantaneous mechanism 12 in the instantaneous state, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 ,in Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a partial structure of an adapter provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure when the electrode contact piece is extended.

[0071] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the partial structure of an adapter provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure when the electrode contact is retracted. The instantaneous mechanism 12 drives the electrode contact 14 to extend or retract from the opening 114, thereby realizing the instantaneous extension or retraction of the electrode contact 14.

[0072] It is understandable that the electrode contact 14 needs to contact the corresponding N-pole conductive strip and L-pole conductive strip on the power rail to obtain power. There are two electrode contact members 14, and the two electrode contact members 14 are arranged opposite to each other. Figure 1As shown, the two electrode contacts 14 may be a first electrode contact 1401 and a second electrode contact 1402 , respectively.

[0073] Therefore, the adapter 1 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure utilizes the instantaneous mechanism 12 to replace the rudder assembly in the related art. When the adapter 1 is matched with the power rail, since the electrode contact 14 can be extended instantaneously, the electrode contact 14 can be instantly abutted against the conductive strip on the power rail, thereby realizing instantaneous contact power supply, avoiding current arcing, ensuring safe use by users, and increasing the service life of the adapter 1.

[0074] The structure of the adapter 1 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is further described below:

[0075] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first housing 11 provides support and protection for the instantaneous mechanism 12 and the socket assembly 13. Figure 1 The first housing 11 is composed of a base 111 and a cover 112 , so that the base 111 and the cover 112 together form a receiving space, which is convenient for installing components such as the instantaneous action mechanism 12 and the socket assembly 13 .

[0076] In some embodiments, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 ,in Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of a cover body provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. Figure 6 This is a disassembled diagram of a cover provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, where the cover 112 includes a panel 1121 and a rotating ring 1122, which are independently arranged, wherein the panel 1121 is fixed in the base 111, and the rotating ring 1122 is rotatably arranged on the base 111. Thus, by rotating the rotating ring 1122, the cover 112 can be rotated relative to the base 111.

[0077] See also Figure 6 The hole type of the pin hole 113 can be a national standard five-hole. Of course, the hole type of the pin hole 113 can also be an independently set two-hole pin hole or an independently set three-hole pin hole, which is not specifically limited here.

[0078] In some embodiments, see Figure 6 The inner wall of the rotating ring 1122 has an extension portion 1123, and the side of the extension portion 1123 facing the rotating arm 121 has a slot 1124, and the slot 1124 is used to accommodate the rotating shaft 122, so that when the rotating ring 1122 rotates, the extension portion 1123 rotates accordingly and drives the rotating shaft 122 located in the slot 1124 to rotate.

[0079] For example, see Figure 6In order to cooperate with the first electrode contact 1401 and the second electrode contact 1402 , the number of the extension parts 1123 is also two, and the two extension parts 1123 are arranged opposite to each other and the corresponding notches 1124 are opposite to each other.

[0080] In some embodiments, see Fig.11 ,in Fig.11 A schematic diagram of the structure of a base provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown, wherein the outer wall of the base 111 has a guide groove 1112, and the opening 114 is located in the guide groove 1112. By providing the guide groove 1112 on the outer wall of the base 111, it is convenient for the adapter 1 to be plugged into the power rail, and it is convenient for the adapter 1 to be installed.

[0081] Exemplarily, in order to correspond to the first electrode contact piece 1401 and the second electrode contact piece 1402 , the number of the guide grooves 1112 is also two, and the two guide grooves 1112 are arranged on two sides of the base 111 opposite to each other.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the instantaneous mechanism 12 is used to assist the electrode connector 14 to achieve instantaneous extension and retraction. Figure 4 ,in Figure 4 This is a schematic structural diagram of a snap-action mechanism and an electrode contact provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. The snap-action mechanism 12 is connected to both the first electrode contact 1401 and the second electrode contact 1402 .

[0083] In some embodiments, see Figure 4 and Figure 7 ,in Figure 7 This is a disassembled diagram of a snap-action mechanism provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. The snap-action mechanism 12 includes a rotating arm 121 , a rotating shaft 122 , a connecting member 123 and an elastic member 124 .

[0084] Among them, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The rotating arm 121 is rotatably arranged on the base 111, and the rotating shaft 122 is rotatably connected to the cover body 112; one end of the elastic member 124 is fixed on the rotating shaft 122, and the other end is fixed on the rotating arm 121, and the elastic member 124 can be extended and retracted in the length direction and can be twisted instantly; one end of the connecting member 123 is rotatably connected to the rotating arm 121, and the other end is rotatably connected to the electrode contact member 14.

[0085] For example, in order to achieve connection with both the first electrode contact 1401 and the second electrode contact 1402, see Figure 4 , the number of the rotating arm 121 is one, and the number of the rotating shaft 122, the connecting member 123 and the elastic member 124 are two.

[0086] When the two rotating shafts 122 are driven to rotate, the two rotating shafts 122 respectively drive their respective elastic members 124 to stretch, contract and twist on one side. When the deformation of the elastic member 124 reaches the yield limit, the elastic member 124 can be instantly twisted and flipped to the other side. At this time, the rotating arm 121 rotates synchronously, and the two ends of the rotating arm 121 drive the two connecting members 123 to rotate. The two connecting members 123 then respectively drive the first electrode contact member 1401 and the second electrode contact member 1402 to extend or retract from the opening 114 of the base 111.

[0087] In some embodiments, see Fig.10 and Fig.11 ,in Fig.10 A cross-sectional view of another adapter provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure shows that the rotating arm 121 has a protrusion 1214 on the side facing away from the cover body 112, and the inner bottom surface of the base 111 has an arc-shaped sliding groove 1113. The protrusion 1214 is located in the arc-shaped sliding groove 1113 and can slide along the arc-shaped sliding groove 1113, so that the rotating arm 121 is limited by the arc-shaped sliding groove 1113.

[0088] For example, see Fig.11 There are two arc-shaped sliding grooves 1113 , which are arranged opposite to each other and correspondingly cooperate with the two protrusions 1213 on the rotating arm 121 .

[0089] In some embodiments, in order to realize the rotation connection between the rotating shaft 122 and the cover body 112, see Figure 7 The rotating shaft 122 has a first column 1221, wherein the axis of the first column 1221 is parallel to the height direction of the adapter 1. Figure 2 or Figure 3 The first column 1221 is rotatably disposed in the slot 1124 , so that the extension portion 1123 can drive the rotating shaft 122 to rotate.

[0090] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 In order to fix one end of the elastic member 124 on the rotating shaft 122 and the other end on the rotating arm 121, the rotating shaft 122 also has a second cylinder 1222, wherein the axis of the second cylinder 1222 is perpendicular to the axis of the first cylinder 1221, and one end of the elastic member 124 is sleeved on the second cylinder 1222; the side wall of the rotating arm 121 has two oppositely arranged third cylinders 1211, and the axis of the third cylinder 1211 is located in the same plane as the axis of the second cylinder 1222, so that the third cylinder 1211 and the second cylinder 1222 are located in the same plane, and the other end of the elastic member 124 is sleeved on the third cylinder 1211.

[0091] In some embodiments, see Figure 7In order to realize that one end of the connecting member 123 is rotatably connected to the rotating arm 121 and the other end is rotatably connected to the electrode contact member 14, in addition to the two oppositely arranged third cylinders 122, the rotating arm 121 has two fourth cylinders 1212 on the side facing the cover body 112; the electrode contact member 14 has a fifth cylinder 143 on the side facing the cover body 112; the two ends of the connecting member 123 respectively have a first connecting hole 1231 and a second connecting hole 1232, the fourth cylinder 1212 is rotatably arranged in the first connecting hole 1231, and the fifth cylinder 143 is rotatably arranged in the second connecting hole 1232.

[0092] In some embodiments, the elastic member 124 may be a spring.

[0093] In the disclosed embodiment, the electrode contact 14 is used to abut against the conductive strip on the corresponding power rail to achieve contact power collection of the adapter 1, and belongs to the power collection component of the adapter 1.

[0094] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 ,in Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the structure of an electrode contact provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, for the first electrode contact 1401 and the second electrode contact 1402, each electrode contact 14 includes a conductive portion 141 and a packaging portion 142, wherein the packaging portion 142 covers the conductive portion 141, and a portion of the conductive portion 141 is exposed on the side of the packaging portion 142 away from the fifth column 143, so that when the electrode contact 14 extends out of the base 111, the portion of the conductive portion 141 exposed from the packaging portion 142 abuts against the conductive strip on the power rail to draw electricity. Since the electrode contact 14 is electrically connected to the socket assembly 13, after the conductive portion 141 draws electricity, it can be conducted to the socket assembly 13.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the packaging part 142 is made of an insulating material and is used to cover and protect the conductive part 141. For example, the conductive part 141 may be a conductive sheet, and the packaging part 142 may be formed on the conductive sheet by a coating process.

[0096] In some embodiments, see Figure 8 and Fig. 9 ,in Fig. 9 A cross-sectional view of an adapter provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, each electrode contact 14 further includes an elastic connection portion 144, a through hole 1421 is provided on the side of the packaging portion 142 away from the cover body 112, one end of the elastic connection portion 144 is connected to the conductive portion 141 through the through hole 1421, and the other end is abutted against the socket assembly 13. In other words, the conductive portion 141 is electrically connected to the socket assembly 13 through the elastic connection portion 144.

[0097] Since the electrode contact 14 can extend or retract relative to the base 111, the electrode contact 14 can move relative to the socket assembly 14. By providing the elastic connecting portion 144, it can be ensured that the conductive portion 141 of the electrode contact 14 is always electrically connected to the socket assembly 13 during the movement.

[0098] In the disclosed embodiment, the socket assembly 13 is used to be plugged into and matched with a plug inserted into the adapter 1 to conduct electrical energy to the plug.

[0099] In some embodiments, see Fig.14 ,in Fig.14 The present invention provides a schematic diagram of the structure of a socket assembly and an electrode contact member provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The socket assembly 13 includes an L-pole socket 131, an N-pole socket 132, and an E-pole socket 133. The L-pole socket 131 is connected to the first electrode contact member 1401, and the N-pole socket 132 is connected to the second electrode contact member 1402; the rotating arm 121 and the base 111 respectively have a first through hole 1213 and a second through hole 1111, and the first through hole 1213 and the second through hole 1111 are correspondingly connected, and the E-pole socket 133 passes through the first through hole 1213 and the second through hole 1111, and is located outside the first shell 11.

[0100] In this way, the L-pole socket 131 can obtain electric energy from the first electrode contact 1401 , the N-pole socket 132 can obtain electric energy from the second electrode contact 1402 , and the E-pole socket 133 can be grounded.

[0101] Further, see Fig.14 In order to facilitate the electrical connection between the socket assembly 13 and the electrode contact 14, the L-pole socket 131 and the N-pole socket 132 are structurally configured as follows: the L-pole socket 131 includes a first sub-L-pole socket 1311 and a second sub-L-pole socket 1312 connected to each other, the first sub-L-pole socket 1311 is fixed on the partition 15, the second sub-L-pole socket 1312 is fixed on the base 111, and is connected to the first electrode contact 1401; the N-pole socket 132 includes a first sub-N-pole socket 1321 and a second sub-N-pole socket 1322 connected to each other, the first sub-N-pole socket 1321 is fixed on the partition 15, the second sub-N-pole socket 1322 is fixed on the base 111, and is connected to the second electrode contact 1402.

[0102] For example, see Fig.10 and Fig.14 The first electrode contact 1401 and the second electrode contact 1402 can slide on the second sub-L-pole socket 1312 and the second sub-N-pole socket 1322 respectively, and are always electrically connected to the second sub-L-pole socket 1312 and the second sub-N-pole socket 1322 respectively.

[0103] Based on the above structure, see Figure 1 and Fig.12 ,in Fig.12 It is a schematic diagram of the partial structure of an adapter provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. The adapter 1 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure also includes a partition 15, wherein the partition 15 is installed in the first shell 11 and is located between the instant action mechanism 12 and the cover body 112.

[0104] By setting the partition 15, the instantaneous mechanism 12 is clamped between the partition 15 and the inner bottom surface of the base 111, ensuring that the position of the instantaneous mechanism 12 along the height direction of the adapter 1 is fixed, ensuring effective transmission of the instantaneous mechanism 12, and further ensuring that the instantaneous mechanism 12 can be in the instantaneous state.

[0105] It can be understood that the extension portion 1123 of the cover body 112 is located on the side of the partition 15 away from the instantaneous mechanism 12. Fig.12 It can be seen that the partition 15 separates the extension portion 1123 from the instant action mechanism 12 .

[0106] See also Fig.12 and Fig.13 ,in Fig.13 The schematic diagram of the structure of a partition provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is that the partition 15 has an arc-shaped channel 151, and the first columns 1221 are located in the arc-shaped channel 151 in a one-to-one correspondence and can slide along the arc-shaped channel 151. That is, the first columns 1221 pass through the arc-shaped channel 151 and are located in the notch 1124.

[0107] By opening the arc-shaped channel 151 on the partition plate 15 , the first column 1221 is limited by the arc-shaped channel 151 , thereby ensuring that the instantaneous action mechanism 12 can be in the instantaneous action state.

[0108] In some embodiments, see Figure 7 and Fig.13 The partition 15 has a fixing hole 152, and the rotating shaft 122 also has a sixth column 1223, wherein the axis of the sixth column 1223 is parallel to the axis of the first column 1221, and the sixth column 1223 is fixed in the fixing hole 152, so that the rotating shaft 122 can be rotatably connected to the partition 15 by using the sixth column 1223.

[0109] In the disclosed embodiment, the first sub-L-pole socket 1311 and the first sub-N-pole socket 1321 are fixed on the side of the partition 15 away from the instantaneous action mechanism 12, and are respectively connected to the second sub-L-pole socket 1312 and the second sub-N-pole socket 1322 through the through holes on the partition 15.

[0110] In some embodiments, see Figure 1The adapter 1 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure also includes a protective door assembly 16 and a positioning member 17, wherein the protective door assembly 16 is located between the panel 1121 and the socket assembly 13, and is used to prevent the socket assembly 13 from being accidentally touched to avoid accidental electric shock; the positioning member 17 is arranged on the partition 15, and is used to locate the position of the panel 1121 when installing the panel 1121.

[0111] The present disclosure also provides a track socket, see Fig.15 , Fig.15 It is a schematic structural diagram of a track socket provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, wherein the track socket comprises at least one adapter 1 and a power track 2 as described in the above embodiment, and at least one adapter 1 and a power track 2 are pluggable and connected.

[0112] By adopting the adapter 1, instantaneous contact power supply is achieved, current arcing is avoided, the user's safe use is ensured, and the service life of the track socket is prolonged.

[0113] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of adapters 1 may be one or more, and each adapter 1 may be pluggable and connected to the power rail 2. For example, Fig.15 Only the case where the number of adapters 1 is one is shown.

[0114] In some embodiments, see Fig.16 and Fig.17 ,in Fig.16 A schematic diagram of the structure of a power socket provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown in FIG. Fig.17 for Fig.15 The cross-sectional view of the track socket shown in FIG. 2 is cut along the AA line, and the power track 2 includes a second shell 21 and a conductive strip 22. The second shell 21 has a slot 211, and the adapter 1 is pluggable in the slot 211; the conductive strip 22 is installed in the second shell 21, and the side slot wall of the slot 211 has a connecting slot 212, and the electrode contact 14 of the adapter 1 can enter from the connecting slot 212 and abut against the conductive strip 22. It can be understood that a certain contact pressure will be generated between the electrode contact 14 and the conductive strip 22 to ensure the reliability of the connection.

[0115] Exemplarily, the power rail 2 is a busbar device, and an L-pole conductive bar and an N-pole conductive bar are respectively provided on both sides of the slot 211 , and the L-pole conductive bar and the N-pole conductive bar are connected to the power connection line.

[0116] In addition, since the slot opening of the slot 211 is opened larger and the conductive strip 22 is arranged on the side of the slot 211, when the adapter 1 is installed in the power track 2, part of the base 111 is located in the slot 211. Compared with the related art in which the thickness of the track socket is equal to the sum of the thickness of the adapter and the thickness of the power track, the track socket provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is lighter and thinner.
