[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, multiple power transmission components and a drive assembly are disposed within the socket body. When the drive assembly is driven by a plug, the connecting component and the transmission component drive the multiple power transmission components to abut and electrically connect with the corresponding conductive components, thereby energizing the multiple conductive components. When the socket is removed from the socket body, the reset component drives the transmission component to move the multiple power transmission components away from the corresponding conductive components, thereby de-energizing the multiple conductive components. Compared to the prior art, the socket is de-energized when no plug is inserted, thereby preventing children from being electrocuted by inserting metal objects into the socket body, thereby improving the safety of the socket.

[0009] Preferably, the driving assembly also includes a stop member and a limit member, the side wall of the socket body is provided with a first accommodating groove, the stop member is pivotally mounted on the first accommodating groove and is suitable for abutting against the plug, and the stop member is suitable for extending into or moving out of the first accommodating groove, the limit member is provided in the socket body and is connected and cooperated with the stop member, and the stop member is suitable for driving the limit member to rotate around the pivot axis of the stop member, the limit member is connected between the connecting member and the reset member; and the reset member can be elastically deformed and connected between the limit member and the socket body.

[0010] When the stop member is driven by the plug, the stop member extends into the first accommodating groove, and the stop member drives the limiting member to drive the connecting member to move, so that the connecting member drives the transmission member to drive the multiple power transmission members to move close to the corresponding conductive member. The reset member is used to drive the limiting member to drive the stop member to move out of the first accommodating groove, and the reset member drives the limiting member to drive the connecting member to move, so that the connecting member drives the transmission member to drive the multiple power transmission members to move away from the corresponding conductive member.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the plug drives the free end of the stop member to extend into the first accommodating groove, the stop member drives the limiting member to rotate counterclockwise around the pivot axis between the stop member and the first accommodating groove, the limiting member drives the connecting member to move close to the rear end wall of the socket body, and the limit member drives the reset member to stretch and deform, the connecting member drives the transmission member to rotate counterclockwise around the pivot axis between the transmission member and the socket body, and the transmission member drives multiple power transmission members to move close to the corresponding conductive members, thereby achieving the technical effect of multiple power transmission members being stopped and electrically connected to the corresponding conductive members. In addition, the reset member drives the limit member to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the stop member and the first accommodating groove, and the limit member drives the stop member to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the stop member and the first accommodating groove, so that the free end of the stop member moves out of the first accommodating groove, and the limit member drives the connecting member to move away from the rear end wall of the socket body, and the connecting member drives the transmission member to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the transmission member and the socket body, and the transmission member drives multiple power transmission members to move away from the corresponding conductive members, thereby achieving the technical effect of separating multiple power transmission members from the corresponding conductive members.

[0012] Preferably, the socket body is provided with a first stop portion and a second stop portion spaced apart, the pivot axis of the limit member is located between the first stop portion and the second stop portion, and the limit member is suitable for abutting against the first stop portion or the second stop portion to limit the rotation angle of the stop member.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the rear end wall of the stopper abuts against the first anti-rotation portion, thereby preventing the free end of the stopper from excessively extending into the first receiving groove. This prevents the stopper from excessively stretching the reset member, which may result in the reset member being unable to retract and deform, thereby improving the operating reliability of the socket. Furthermore, the rear end wall of the stopper abuts against the second anti-rotation portion, thereby preventing the reset member from causing the stopper to rotate excessively. This prevents the angle between the stopper and the front end wall of the socket body from being greater than or equal to 90°, thereby minimizing interference between the plug and the free end of the stopper, which may make it difficult to insert the plug into the socket, thereby improving the user experience of the socket.

[0014] Preferably, the socket body is provided with a guide portion, the connecting piece is provided with a waist-shaped hole, and the guide portion is guided and matched with the waist-shaped hole.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the guiding part and the waist-shaped hole cooperate with each other to prevent the connecting part from deviating from the preset movement trajectory during the process of the limiting part driving the connecting part to move, and the connecting part from being unable to drive the transmission part to drive multiple power transmission parts to move close to the corresponding conductive parts, thereby improving the working reliability of the socket.

[0016] Preferably, a limiting portion is provided at the end of the guide portion, and the limiting portion is suitable for abutting against the connecting member, so that the connecting member is limited to the guide portion by the limiting portion.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a limiting portion is provided at the right end of the guide portion, thereby preventing the connector from separating from the guide portion, and preventing the guide portion from failing to cooperate with the waist-shaped hole guide, causing the connector to deviate from the preset motion trajectory, thereby further improving the working reliability of the socket.

[0018] Preferably, the socket further includes: a plug detection assembly, the socket body is provided with a plurality of avoidance holes connected to the installation space, the plurality of avoidance holes are spaced apart along the radial direction of the socket body, and the plurality of avoidance holes correspond one to one with the plurality of conductive parts and are arranged relative to each other, and the plurality of avoidance holes are suitable for simultaneously inserting the corresponding plugs, the plug detection assembly is arranged in the socket body and corresponds to one of the plurality of avoidance holes, the plug detection assembly includes a first coil and a second coil that are relative and spaced apart, the avoidance hole is located between the first coil and the second coil, the first coil is used to transmit an induction signal, and the second coil is used to receive the induction signal.

[0019] Multiple stop assemblies, the inner walls of multiple avoidance holes are provided with second accommodating grooves, and the second accommodating grooves of the avoidance holes corresponding to the insert detection assemblies are located between the insert detection assemblies and the conductive member, each of the second accommodating grooves is provided with the stop assembly, and the stop assembly includes a driving member and a blocking member, the driving member and the blocking member are connected and cooperated, the driving member is used to drive the blocking member to extend into or move out of the avoidance hole, and the blocking member is used to block the avoidance hole.

[0020] The second coil and the plurality of driving members are all in communication connection with the controller, and the controller is used to control the plurality of driving members to operate according to the detection signal of the second coil.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, an induction signal is emitted through the first coil. When the induction signal passes through metal parts of different materials, the metal parts of different materials have different degrees of blocking effect on the induction signal. The second coil receives the induction signal passing through the metal parts and generates a detection signal. The controller stores a standard detection signal generated by the second coil when the plug of a plug is inserted between the first coil and the second coil. The controller compares the detection signal generated by the second coil with the standard detection signal so that the controller can identify whether the plug inserted between the first coil and the second coil is a plug. When a metal part other than a plug is inserted between the first coil and the second coil, the controller controls multiple driving parts to drive corresponding blocking parts to extend into corresponding avoidance holes, thereby preventing the metal part other than the plug from passing through the avoidance holes and contacting the conductive parts. This arrangement can prevent children from inserting metal parts other than plugs into the avoidance holes and contacting the conductive parts, thereby reducing the occurrence of electric shock accidents for children and further improving the safety of the socket.

[0022] Preferably, the driving member includes a driving part and a reset part, the driving part is arranged on the bottom wall of the second accommodating groove, the reset part is connected between the driving part and the blocking member, the driving part is used to drive the blocking member to move out of the avoidance hole, and the reset part is used to drive the blocking member to extend into the avoidance hole, the driving part is communicatively connected to the controller, and the controller is used to control the driving part to work according to the detection signal of the second coil.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, when the plug blade is inserted between the first coil and the second coil, the controller controls the driving unit to start operation based on the detection signal of the second coil. The driving unit drives the blocking member to move out of the avoidance hole, thereby achieving the technical effect of the plug blade passing through the avoidance hole and abutting against the corresponding conductive member and electrically connecting. When a metal part other than the plug blade is inserted into the avoidance hole, the controller controls the driving unit to stop operation based on the detection signal of the second coil, and the reset unit drives the blocking member to extend into the avoidance hole, thereby achieving the technical effect of the blocking member blocking the metal part of the non-plug plug.

Compared with the first coil continuously emitting an induction signal, such a setting can reduce the energy consumption of the socket, thereby improving the environmental friendliness of the socket.

[0030] 1. By disposing multiple power transmission components and drive assemblies within the socket body, when the drive assembly is driven by a plug, the connecting component and the transmission component drive the multiple power transmission components to abut and electrically connect with the corresponding conductive components, so that the multiple conductive components are all energized. When the socket is removed from the socket body, the reset component drives the transmission component to move the multiple power transmission components away from the corresponding conductive components, so that the multiple conductive components are in a de-energized state. Compared with the prior art, when no plug is inserted into the socket, the socket is in a de-energized state, thereby preventing children from being electrocuted when inserting metal objects into the socket body, thereby improving the safety of the socket.

[0047] The following is combined with Figures 1-6 This application is described in further detail.

[0048] The embodiment of the present application discloses a socket 100 .

[0049] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4According to the embodiment of the present application, the socket 100 includes: a socket body 10, a power supply assembly 20 and a drive assembly 30. The socket body 10 defines an installation space 101, and the socket body 10 is suitable for simultaneously inserting multiple plugs of the plug into the installation space 101. Specifically, along the first direction of the socket 100, the first direction of the socket 100 can refer to Figure 2 In the front-to-back direction, the rear end wall of the socket 100 is suitable for installation on the installation plane, and the front end wall of the socket 100 is suitable for allowing multiple plugs of the plug to be inserted simultaneously. In some specific embodiments, the installation plane can be a wall, but the present application is not limited to this. The installation plane can also be a desktop.

[0050] The power supply assembly 20 is arranged in the socket body 10. The power supply assembly 20 includes multiple conductive members 201 and multiple power transmission members 202. The multiple conductive members 201 and the multiple power transmission members 202 are arranged spaced apart along the radial direction of the socket body 10, and the multiple conductive members 201 and the multiple power transmission members 202 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The conductive members 201 are suitable for being electrically connected to the corresponding plug-ins. The multiple power transmission members 202 are all movably arranged in the socket body 10 and opposite to the corresponding conductive members 201. The power transmission members 202 are suitable for abutting and electrically connecting with the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0051] Specifically, multiple power transmission elements 202 are all electrically connected to the mains. When the power transmission elements 202 are driven, the power transmission elements 202 move closer to or away from the corresponding conductive elements 201. When the power transmission elements 202 abut against and are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive elements 201, the power transmission elements 202 transmit current to the corresponding conductive elements 201. In other words, the corresponding conductive elements 201 are in an energized state. When the power transmission elements 202 are separated from the corresponding conductive elements 201, the power transmission elements 202 stop transmitting current to the corresponding conductive elements 201. In other words, the corresponding conductive elements 201 are in an de-energized state. When the plug blades of the plug are inserted into the socket body 10, multiple blades abut against and are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive elements 201. The power transmission elements 202 transmit current to the blades through the conductive elements 201.

[0052] In some specific embodiments, when there are two conductive members 201 and two power transmission members 202, the socket 100 is suitable for inserting a two-prong plug. In other specific embodiments, when there are three conductive members 201 and three power transmission members 202, the socket 100 is suitable for inserting a three-prong plug. In other specific embodiments, when there are five conductive members 201 and five power transmission members 202, the socket 100 is suitable for inserting a three-prong plug and / or a two-prong plug. It should be noted that the multiple power transmission members 202 are all electrically connected to the mains power supply, and at least one of the multiple power transmission members 202 is connected to the live wire, and at least one power transmission member 202 is connected to the neutral wire. When the socket 100 is suitable for inserting a three-prong plug, at least one power transmission member 202 is connected to the ground wire.

[0053] Furthermore, the conductive member 201 can be constructed in a clip shape, and the conductive member 201 is suitable for elastic deformation to clamp the plug. When the plug is inserted into the conductive member 201, the plug is clamped by the conductive member 201, thereby minimizing the separation of the plug and the conductive member 201.

[0054] The driving assembly 30 includes a connecting member 301, a transmission member 302 and a reset member 303. The connecting member 301 is movably arranged in the socket body 10, and the transmission member 302 is pivotally installed in the socket body 10. The transmission member 302 is connected and cooperated with the connecting member 301 and multiple power transmission members 202. Specifically, the connecting member 301 is arranged near the front end of the socket body 10, and the transmission member 302 is arranged near the rear end of the socket body 10.

[0055] exist Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the plurality of conductive members 201 may be located in front of the plurality of power transmission members 202, the transmission member 302 may be located behind the plurality of power transmission members 202, the upper end portion of the transmission member 302 may be connected and cooperated with the plurality of power transmission members 202, the lower end portion of the transmission member 302 may be connected and cooperated with the connecting member 301, and the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10 may be located between the plurality of power transmission members 202 and the connecting member 301.

[0056] When the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate counterclockwise about the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to move closer to the corresponding conductive members 201, so that the multiple power transmission members 202 abut and are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive members 201. When the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate clockwise about the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to move away from the corresponding conductive members 201, so that the multiple power transmission members 202 are separated from the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0057] In some specific embodiments, multiple conductive members 201 can be located behind multiple power transmission members 202, one end of the transmission member 302 is pivotally connected to the socket body 10, and the other end of the transmission member 302 is connected and cooperated with the connecting member 301 and the multiple power transmission members 202, and the connecting member 301 is located below the multiple power transmission members 202.

[0058] When the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate counterclockwise about the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to move closer to the corresponding conductive members 201, so that the multiple power transmission members 202 and the corresponding conductive members 201 abut and electrically connect the multiple power transmission members 202. When the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate clockwise about the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to move away from the corresponding conductive members 201, so that the multiple power transmission members 202 and the corresponding conductive members 201 are separated.

[0059] In addition, the driving component 30 is suitable for abutting against the plug. When the driving component 30 is driven by the plug, the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to drive the multiple power transmission members 202 to move closer to the corresponding conductive members 201. The reset member 303 is arranged in the socket body 10, and the reset member 303 is used to drive the transmission member 302 to drive the multiple power transmission members 202 to move away from the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0060] Specifically, in Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, when the plug blade is inserted into the socket body 10, the connector 301 is driven by the plug and moves toward the rear end wall of the socket body 10. The connector 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate counterclockwise around the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, so that the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to stop and electrically connect with the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0061] When the plug insert is removed from the socket body 10, the reset member 303 drives the transmission member 302 to move the multiple power transmission members 202 away from the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby de-energizing the multiple conductive members 201. In some specific embodiments, the reset member 303 is elastically deformably connected between the rear end wall of the socket body 10 and the rear end wall of the lower end of the transmission member 302. When the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to abut against the corresponding conductive members 201, the reset member 303 is in a compressed state. When the plug is removed from the socket body 10, the reset member 303 returns to a natural state from the compressed state, and the reset member 303 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate clockwise about the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, so that the transmission member 302 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to move away from the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0062] In some specific embodiments, the reset member 303 may be a spring, but the present application is not limited thereto. The reset member 303 may also be a tension spring or the like.

[0063] Thus, by disposing multiple power transmission members 202 and a drive assembly 30 within the socket body 10, when the drive assembly 30 is driven by a plug, the connecting member 301 and the transmission member 302 drive the multiple power transmission members 202 to abut and electrically connect with the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby energizing the multiple conductive members 201. When the socket 100 is removed from the socket body 10, the reset member 303 drives the transmission member 302 to move the multiple power transmission members 202 away from the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby de-energizing the multiple conductive members 201. Compared to the prior art, when no plug is inserted into the socket 100, the socket 100 is in the de-energized state, thereby preventing electric shock accidents caused by children inserting metal objects into the socket body 10, thereby improving the safety of the socket 100.

[0064] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present application, the drive assembly 30 further includes a stop member 304 and a limit member 305. The side wall of the socket body 10 is provided with a first accommodating groove 102. The stop member 304 is pivotally mounted on the first accommodating groove 102 and is suitable for abutting against the plug, and the stop member 304 is suitable for extending into or moving out of the first accommodating groove 102. Specifically, along the first direction of the socket body 10, the first accommodating groove 102 is located at the front end wall of the socket body 10. Along the height direction of the socket body 10, one end of the stop member 304 is pivotally connected to the upper end of the first accommodating groove 102, and the other end of the stop member 304 is a free end and is suitable for rotating around the pivot axis between the stop member 304 and the first accommodating groove 102, and the plug is suitable for abutting against the free end of the stop member 304. The height direction of the socket body 10 can refer to Figure 2 The up and down directions in .

[0065] In addition, the limit member 305 is arranged in the socket body 10 and is connected and cooperated with the stop member 304, and the stop member 304 is suitable for driving the limit member 305 to rotate around the pivot axis between the stop member 304 and the first accommodating groove 102, the limit member 305 is connected between the connecting member 301 and the reset member 303, and the reset member 303 can be elastically deformed and connected between the limit member 305 and the socket body 10.

[0066] Specifically, along the second direction of the socket body 10, the second direction of the socket body 10 may refer to Figure 5 In the left and right directions, the left end of the limit member 305 is connected and cooperated with the stop member 304, and the right end of the limit member 305 is connected and cooperated with the connecting member 301 and the reset member 303. Along the height direction of the socket body 10, the reset member 303 is connected and cooperated with the upper end of the limit member 305, and the connecting member 301 is connected and cooperated with the lower end of the reset member 303. Along the first direction of the socket body 10, the connecting member 301 and the reset member 303 are both located behind the limit member 305.

[0067] When the stop member 304 is driven by the plug, the stop member 304 extends into the first accommodating groove 102, and the stop member 304 drives the limiting member 305 to drive the connecting member 301 to move, so that the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to drive the multiple power transmission members 202 to move close to the corresponding conductive member 201, and the reset member 303 is used to drive the limiting member 305 to drive the stop member 304 to move out of the first accommodating groove 102, and the reset member 303 drives the limiting member 305 to drive the connecting member 301 to move, so that the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to drive the multiple power transmission members 202 to move away from the corresponding conductive member 201.

[0068] Specifically, when the plug is inserted into the socket 100, the plug drives the free end of the stop member 304 to extend into the first accommodating groove 102, and the stop member 304 drives the limiting member 305 to rotate counterclockwise around the pivot axis between the stop member 304 and the first accommodating groove 102, and the limiting member 305 drives the connecting member 301 to move close to the rear end wall of the socket body 10, and the limiting member 305 drives the reset member 303 to stretch and deform, and the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate counterclockwise around the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, and the transmission member 302 drives multiple power transmission members 202 to move close to the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby achieving the technical effect of multiple power transmission members 202 being stopped and electrically connected to the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0069] When the plug is moved out of the socket 100, the reset member 303 shrinks and deforms, and the reset member 303 drives the limiting member 305 to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the stop member 304 and the first accommodating groove 102, and the limiting member 305 drives the stop member 304 to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the stop member 304 and the first accommodating groove 102, so that the free end of the stop member 304 moves out of the first accommodating groove 102, and the limiting member 305 drives the connecting member 301 to move away from the rear end wall of the socket body 10, and the connecting member 301 drives the transmission member 302 to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the transmission member 302 and the socket body 10, and the transmission member 302 drives multiple power transmission members 202 to move away from the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby achieving the technical effect of separating multiple power transmission members 202 from the corresponding conductive members 201.

[0070] It should be noted that the stop member 304 , the limiting member 305 , the connecting member 301 and the transmission member 302 are all constructed as insulating members.

[0071] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, a first anti-rotation portion 103 and a second anti-rotation portion 104 are provided in the socket body 10. Specifically, the first anti-rotation portion 103 and the second anti-rotation portion 104 are provided in a spaced relationship along the height direction of the socket body 10. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the first anti-rotation portion 103 is located below the second anti-rotation portion 104 .

[0072] In addition, the pivot axis between the limit member 305 and the first accommodating groove 102 is located between the first stop portion 103 and the second stop portion 104. Specifically, the first stop portion 103 is located below the pivot axis between the limit member 305 and the first accommodating groove 102, and the second stop portion 104 is located above the pivot axis between the limit member 305 and the first accommodating groove 102. In addition, along the first direction of the socket body 10, the first stop portion and the second stop portion are both located behind the limit member 305, and the rear end wall of the limit member 305 is suitable for abutting with the first stop portion 103 or the second stop portion 104 to limit the rotation angle of the stop member 304. It should be noted that the pivot axis between the limit member 305 and the first accommodating groove 102 and the pivot axis between the stop member 304 and the first accommodating groove 102 are coaxially arranged.

[0073] Specifically, when the plug is inserted into the socket 100, and the stop member 304 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to stop and electrically connect with the corresponding conductive members 201 through the limit member 305, the connecting member 301 and the transmission member 302, the rear end wall of the limit member 305 stops with the first stop portion 103, that is, when the front end face of the stop member 304 is flush with the front end wall of the socket body 10, the rear end wall of the limit member 305 stops with the first stop portion 103, thereby preventing the free end of the stop member 304 from excessively extending into the first accommodating groove 102, and preventing the limit member 305 from excessively stretching the reset member 303, causing the reset member 303 to be unable to shrink and deform, thereby improving the working reliability of the socket 100.

[0074] It should be noted that when the plug is inserted into the socket 100 , the free end of the abutment member 304 is flush with the front end wall of the socket body 10 .

[0075] When the plug is moved out of the socket 100, and the reset member 303 drives the multiple power transmission members 202 to separate from the corresponding conductive members 201 through the limit member 305, the connecting member 301 and the transmission member 302, and the reset member 303 drives the limit member 305 to rotate clockwise around the pivot axis between the limit member 305 and the first accommodating groove 102, the rear end wall of the limit member 305 abuts against the second anti-rotation portion 104, thereby preventing the reset member 303 from driving the limit member 305 to rotate excessively, and preventing the angle between the abutting member 304 and the front end wall of the socket body 10 from being greater than or equal to 90°, and preventing the plug from interfering with the free end of the abutting member 304, which makes it difficult for the plug to be inserted into the socket 100, thereby improving the user experience of the socket 100.

[0076] Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6In some embodiments of the present application, along the second direction of the socket body 10, a guide portion 105 is provided on the right side wall of the socket body 10 close to the first accommodating groove 102, and a waist-shaped hole 3011 is provided on the left side wall of the connecting piece 301. The waist-shaped hole 3011 extends along the height direction of the socket body 10, and the waist-shaped hole 3011 passes through the left side wall of the connecting piece 301. The guide portion 105 extends into the waist-shaped hole 3011, and the guide portion 105 is guided and matched with the waist-shaped hole 3011.

[0077] By the guiding cooperation between the guide portion 105 and the waist-shaped hole 3011, it is possible to prevent the connecting member 301 from deviating from the preset motion trajectory during the process of the limiting member 305 driving the connecting member 301 to move, and it is possible to prevent the connecting member 301 from being unable to drive the transmission member 302 to drive multiple power transmission members 202 to move close to the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby improving the working reliability of the socket 100.

[0078] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of the present application, a limiting portion 1051 is provided at the right end portion of the guide portion 105 along the second direction of the socket body 10, and the left side wall of the limiting portion 1051 is suitable for abutting against the right side wall of the connecting member 301, so that the connecting member 301 is limited to the guide portion 105 by the limiting portion 1051.

[0079] Specifically, in the process of the limiting member 305 driving the connecting member 301 to move, by setting a limiting portion 1051 at the right end of the guide portion 105, the connecting member 301 can be prevented from separating from the guide portion 105, and the guide portion 105 can be prevented from failing to cooperate with the waist-shaped hole 3011, causing the connecting member 301 to deviate from the preset motion trajectory, thereby further improving the working reliability of the socket 100.

[0080] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present application, the socket 100 may further include: a blade detection component 40, a plurality of stop components 50 and a controller.

[0081] The socket body 10 is provided with a plurality of avoidance holes 106 connected to the installation space 101. The plurality of avoidance holes 106 are spaced apart along the radial direction of the socket body 10, and the plurality of avoidance holes 106 correspond to the plurality of conductive members 201 one by one and are arranged relative to each other. The plurality of avoidance holes 106 are all suitable for simultaneously inserting the corresponding plugs. Specifically, along the first direction of the socket body 10, the plurality of avoidance holes 106 are all provided on the front end wall of the socket body 10. The plugs pass through the avoidance holes 106 and abut against and are electrically connected to the corresponding conductive members 201. It should be noted that the number of avoidance holes 106, the number of conductive members 201 and the number of power transmission members 202 are all equal.

[0082] The plug detection assembly 40 is disposed in the socket body 10 and is corresponding to one of the plurality of avoidance holes 106. Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, there are two avoidance holes 106. Along the second direction of the socket body 10, the blade detection assembly 40 is disposed correspondingly to one of the two avoidance holes 106 located near the right end of the socket body 10. In some specific embodiments, there are three avoidance holes 106, and the blade detection assembly 40 is disposed correspondingly to one of the three avoidance holes 106.

[0083] The plug detection assembly 40 includes a first coil 401 and a second coil 402 that are relative and spaced apart, and the avoidance hole 106 is located between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402. The first coil 401 is used to transmit an induction signal, and the second coil 402 is used to receive an induction signal. That is, when the plug of the plug is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the first coil 401 transmits an induction signal, and the induction signal passes through the plug and is received by the second coil 402.

[0084] In addition, the inner walls of the multiple avoidance holes 106 are each provided with a second accommodating groove 1061, and the second accommodating groove 1061 of the avoidance hole 106 corresponding to the insert detection component 40 is located between the insert detection component 40 and the conductive member 201, and each second accommodating groove 1061 is provided with a stop assembly 50, and the stop assembly 50 includes a driving member 501 and a blocking member 502. In some specific embodiments, the driving member 501 can be provided on the bottom wall of the second accommodating groove 1061, and the blocking member 502 can be provided on the side of the driving member 501 close to the avoidance hole 106, the driving member 501 and the blocking member 502 are connected and cooperated, and the driving member 501 is used to drive the blocking member 502 to extend into or move out of the avoidance hole 106, and the blocking member 502 is used to block the avoidance hole 106.

[0085] Specifically, when the driving member 501 drives the blocking member 502 to extend into the avoidance hole 106, the blocking member 502 blocks the avoidance hole 106, and the metal member cannot pass through the avoidance hole 106 to contact the conductive member 201. When the driving member 501 drives the blocking member 502 to move out of the avoidance hole 106, the metal member can pass through the avoidance hole 106 and stop with the corresponding conductive member 201 and be electrically connected. It should be noted that the metal member can be a plug blade, or a sheet-shaped or rod-shaped metal object.

[0086] Furthermore, the second coil 402 and the plurality of driving elements 501 are all in communication connection with a controller, and the controller is used to control the plurality of driving elements 501 to operate according to a detection signal of the second coil 402 .

[0087] In some specific embodiments, the induction signal is an electromagnetic induction signal. Specifically, current flows through the first coil 401. When current flows through the first coil 401, the first coil 401 generates a magnetic field. The magnetic flux lines of the magnetic field pass through the avoidance hole 106 and are received by the second coil 402. The second coil 402 generates a first induced current. When a metal part is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the magnetic flux lines of the magnetic field are blocked by the metal part, the magnetic flux lines received by the second coil 402 are reduced, and the second coil 402 generates a second induced current. The first induced current is greater than the second induced current. That is, when a metal part is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the induced current of the second coil 402 changes from the first induced current to the second induced current.

[0088] It should be noted that the detection signal of the second coil 402 is the induced current value of the second coil 402, and when metal parts of different materials are inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the second induced current values ​​generated by the second coil 402 are all different and are all smaller than the first induced current.

[0089] Specifically, the controller stores a standard detection signal when the plug is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402. When the metal part is not inserted into the avoidance hole 106, the induction signal emitted by the first coil 401 passes through the avoidance hole 106 and is received by the second coil 402, and the second coil 402 generates a first detection signal. When the metal part is inserted into the avoidance hole 106, the induction signal emitted by the first coil 401 passes through the metal part and is received by the second coil 402, and the second coil 402 generates a second detection signal. When the second coil 402 generates the second detection signal, the second coil 402 sends the second detection signal to the controller, and the controller compares the second detection signal with the standard detection signal.

[0090] When the second detection signal is equal to the standard detection signal, that is, the plug of the plug extends between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the controller controls the multiple driving members 501 to drive the corresponding blocking members 502 to move out of the corresponding avoidance hole 106, so that the corresponding plug passes through the avoidance hole 106 and stops at the corresponding conductive member 201 and is electrically connected. When the second detection signal is greater than or less than the standard detection signal, that is, the metal member between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402 is not the plug of the plug, the controller controls the multiple driving members 501 to drive the corresponding blocking members 502 to extend into the corresponding avoidance hole 106, so that the blocking members 502 block the corresponding avoidance hole 106, thereby preventing the metal member from passing through the avoidance hole 106 and contacting the conductive member 201.

[0091] It should be noted that when the plug is removed from the socket 100 , the second coil 402 generates a first detection signal, and the controller controls the multiple driving members 501 to drive the corresponding blocking members 502 to extend into the corresponding avoidance holes 106 according to the first detection signal generated by the second coil 402 .

[0092] The first coil 401 transmits an induction signal. When the induction signal passes through metal parts of different materials, the metal parts of different materials have different degrees of blocking on the induction signal. The second coil 402 receives the induction signal passing through the metal parts and generates a detection signal. The controller stores a standard detection signal generated by the second coil 402 when the plug is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402. The controller compares the detection signal generated by the second coil 402 with the standard detection signal so that the controller can identify the plug inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402. Whether the space between the plug and the conductor is a plug, when the metal part other than the plug is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the controller controls the multiple driving parts 501 to drive the corresponding blocking parts 502 to extend into the corresponding avoidance holes 106, thereby preventing the metal part other than the plug from passing through the avoidance holes 106 and contacting the conductive part 201. This arrangement can prevent children from inserting the metal part other than the plug into the avoidance holes 106 and contacting the conductive part 201, thereby reducing the occurrence of electric shock accidents for children, and further improving the safety of the socket 100.

[0093] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present application, the driving member 501 includes a driving portion 5011 and a reset portion 5012. The driving portion 5011 is arranged on the bottom wall of the second accommodating groove 1061. The reset portion 5012 can be elastically deformed and connected between the driving portion 5011 and the blocking member 502. The driving portion 5011 is used to drive the blocking member 502 to move out of the avoidance hole 106, and the reset portion 5012 is used to drive the blocking member 502 to extend into the avoidance hole 106. The driving portion 5011 is communicatively connected to the controller, and the controller is used to control the driving portion 5011 to work according to the detection signal of the second coil 402. In some specific embodiments, the driving portion 5011 can be an electromagnet, and the reset portion 5012 can be a spring, etc.

[0094] Specifically, when the plug blade is inserted between the first coil 401 and the second coil 402, the controller controls the driver 5011 to start operation based on the detection signal from the second coil 402. The driver 5011 drives the blocking member 502 to move out of the avoidance hole 106, thereby achieving the technical effect of the plug blade passing through the avoidance hole 106 and abutting and electrically connecting with the corresponding conductive member 201. When a metal part other than the plug blade is inserted into the avoidance hole 106, the controller controls the driver 5011 to stop operation based on the detection signal from the second coil 402, and the reset unit 5012 drives the blocking member 502 to extend into the avoidance hole 106, thereby achieving the technical effect of the blocking member 502 blocking the metal part other than the plug blade.

[0095] Reference Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present application, the socket 100 may further include a switch element 60. A third receiving slot 1062 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the avoidance hole 106 in which the plug detection assembly 40 is provided. The third receiving slot 1062 is located on a side of the plug detection assembly 40 away from the conductive member 201. That is, along the first direction of the socket 100, the third receiving slot 1062 is located in front of the plug detection assembly 40, and the third receiving slot 1062 and the plug detection assembly 40 are spaced apart along the first direction of the socket 100. The switch element 60 is disposed in the third receiving slot 1062 and is adapted to abut against the plug. The switch element 60 is communicatively connected to a controller. When the switch element 60 is triggered, the controller controls the first coil 401 to emit an induction signal. In some specific embodiments, the switch element 60 may be a micro switch, but the present application is not limited thereto. The switch element 60 may also be a tactile switch, etc.

[0096] Specifically, when the plug of the plug is inserted into the avoidance hole 106 corresponding to the plug detection component 40, the side wall of the plug stops at the switch component 60, and the switch component 60 is triggered by the plug. The controller controls the first coil 401 to emit an induction signal. Compared with the first coil 401 continuously emitting an induction signal, such a setting can reduce the energy consumption of the socket 100, thereby improving the environmental protection of the socket 100.

[0097] When the plug moves out of the avoidance hole 106 , the switch member 60 returns to the initial state, and the controller controls the first coil 401 to stop transmitting the induction signal.

[0098] Based on this, the present application further discloses a power supply system. The power supply system according to the embodiment of the present application includes: a socket 100, and the socket 100 is the socket 100 described in the above embodiment.

[0099] According to the power supply system described in the embodiment of the present application, a socket 100 is disposed within the power supply system. Multiple power transmission members 202 and a drive assembly 30 are disposed within the socket body 10. When the drive assembly 30 is driven by a plug, the connecting member 301 and the transmission member 302 drive the multiple power transmission members 202 to abut and electrically connect with the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby energizing the multiple conductive members 201. When the socket 100 is removed from the socket body 10, the reset member 303 drives the transmission member 302 to move the multiple power transmission members 202 away from the corresponding conductive members 201, thereby de-energizing the multiple conductive members 201. Compared to the prior art, when no plug is inserted into the socket 100, the socket 100 is in the de-energized state, thereby preventing electric shock accidents caused by children inserting metal objects into the socket body 10, thereby improving the safety of the socket 100.

[0100] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, any equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
