Description

Technical Field

[0001] Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to the technical field of electrical equipment, and more particularly, to a moving contact driving assembly for an adapter, an adapter, and a track socket. Background Art

[0002] A track socket includes a power track and an adapter. The power track is installed on components such as walls and tables. The adapter can cooperate with the power track to draw power from the power track. The adapter can move along the power track to charge devices to be charged at different positions.

[0003] When the device to be charged does not need to be charged, the adapter needs to be rotated to disconnect the adapter from the power track. However, during the rotation of a conventional adapter, the resultant force of the internal stress of the adapter is not zero, which requires a higher strength for the adapter and affects the reliability of the adapter. Summary of the Invention

[0004] An object of the present disclosure is to provide a moving contact driving assembly for an adapter, an adapter, and a track socket to at least partially solve the above problems.

[0005] In a first aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a moving contact driving assembly for an adapter. The moving contact driving assembly includes a rotating member disposed on a base of the adapter, and the rotating member is capable of rotating around a first rotation hole of the base. The rotating member includes a pair of actuating portions symmetrically disposed about the center axis of the first rotation hole; and a pair of elastic members symmetrically disposed about the center axis of the first rotation hole. One end of each elastic member in the pair of elastic members cooperates with a corresponding moving contact in a pair of moving contacts of the adapter, and the other end of each elastic member in the pair of elastic members cooperates with a corresponding actuating portion in the pair of actuating portions. And each elastic member in the pair of elastic members is located between the corresponding moving contact and the corresponding actuating portion.

[0006] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, on the one hand, since the rotating member includes a pair of actuating portions symmetrically disposed about the center axis of the first rotation hole, and one end of each elastic member cooperates with a corresponding moving contact in the pair of moving contacts, and the other end of each elastic member cooperates with a corresponding actuating portion in the pair of actuating portions. Therefore, when the pair of actuating portions of the rotating member rotates, each actuating portion can act on the corresponding elastic member and deform the elastic member, and then each elastic member can drive the corresponding moving contact to rotate, thereby realizing the operations of closing and opening.

[0007] On the other hand, because the paired actuating portions and the paired elastic members are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the first rotating hole, and each elastic member is located between the corresponding moving contact and the corresponding actuating portion, if the adapter needs to be rotated to achieve closing and opening operations, the forces acting on the paired elastic members in the adapter during the rotation process are in opposite directions, that is, the resultant force in the adapter is zero, which reduces the strength requirements of the adapter and improves the reliability of the adapter.

[0008] In some embodiments, the rotating member further includes a rotating disk and a first connecting portion arranged on the inner side of the rotating disk, the rotating disk is arranged on the base, and the actuating portion is arranged on the inner side of the rotating disk and connected to the first connecting portion.

[0009] In some embodiments, the actuating portion is arranged to be farther away from the first rotating hole than the corresponding moving contact, and wherein the end of the elastic member adjacent to the first rotating hole wraps around the corresponding first mating portion in the pair of moving contacts, the end of the elastic member facing away from the first rotating hole is connected to the base, and the actuating portion wraps around the end of the elastic member facing away from the first rotating hole.

[0010] In some embodiments, the actuating portion includes a main body portion and a pair of limiting portions arranged on the main body portion, the pair of limiting portions are spaced apart from each other and constitute a limiting space, and the end of the elastic member facing away from the first rotating hole is located in the limiting space.

[0011] In some embodiments, the rotating member also includes a rotating disk and a second connecting portion, the rotating disk is arranged on the base, the second connecting portion extends along the radial direction of the rotating disk, and the two ends of the second connecting portion are respectively connected to the inner side surface of the rotating disk, and the actuating portion is arranged on the outer side surface of the second connecting portion.

[0012] In some embodiments, the actuating portion is arranged closer to the first rotating hole than the corresponding moving contact, and wherein one end of the elastic member adjacent to the first rotating hole wraps the actuating portion, and one end of the elastic member facing away from the first rotating hole wraps the corresponding second mating portion in the pair of moving contacts.

[0013] In a second aspect of the present disclosure, an adapter is provided. The adapter includes: any one of the movable contact drive assemblies according to the first aspect of the present disclosure; a base; and a pair of movable contacts.

[0014] In some embodiments, the adapter further includes a first conductive member and a second conductive member. The first conductive member and the second conductive member are located on opposite sides of the first rotation hole. When the moving contact is closer to the first rotation hole than the corresponding actuating portion, the first conductive member abuts against one side of the first rotation portion of the pair of moving contacts adjacent to the first rotation hole, and the second conductive member abuts against the other side of the first rotation portion of the pair of moving contacts adjacent to the first rotation hole.

[0015] In a third aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a track socket, which includes: any one of the adapters according to the second aspect of the present disclosure; and a power track.

[0044] The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the present disclosure more thorough and complete, and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. [[ID=???]] [[ID=???]]

The term "based on" means "at least partially based on". The term "an exemplary embodiment" and "an embodiment" mean "at least one exemplary embodiment".

[0046] As described above, the adapter can be switched between the closed position and the open position. When the device to be charged does not need to be charged, the adapter needs to be rotated to switch the adapter to the open state, so that the adapter is disconnected from the power rail. And when the device to be charged needs to be charged, the adapter needs to be rotated to switch the adapter to the closed state, so that the adapter is electrically connected to the power rail. However, during the rotation of the conventional adapter, the resultant force of the internal stress of the adapter is not zero, which requires a higher strength for the adapter and affects the reliability of the adapter. The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a moving contact assembly for the adapter 100 to at least partially solve the above problems. In the following, the principle of the present disclosure will be described in combination with [[ID=???]] Figures 1 to 18 the present disclosure. [[ID=???]] [[ID=???]]

[0047] [[ID=???]] Figure 1 Shows a cross-sectional view of the adapter 100 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As [[ID=???]] Figure 1As shown, the adapter 100 described herein generally includes a base 1, a pair of moving contacts 2, a moving contact driving assembly, a cover plate 5, a ground electrode member 63, a grounding member 7, and a bracket 8. The moving contact driving assembly is mainly used to drive the pair of moving contacts 2. Specifically, continuing to refer to Figure 1 , the moving contact driving assembly may include a rotating member 3 and a pair of elastic members 4. The rotating member 3 is disposed on the base 1, and the rotating member 3 can rotate relative to the base 1. The cover plate 5 is disposed on the rotating member 3, and the cover plate 5, the rotating member 3, and the base 1 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The grounding member 7 can sequentially pass through the ground electrode member 63, the bracket 8, the rotating member 3, and the base 1, and one end of the grounding member 7 passing through the base 1 can be grounded. The pair of moving contacts 2 are disposed in the base 1, and the pair of moving contacts 2 can rotate relative to the base 1. Obviously, when the adapter 100 is in the open state, the pair of moving contacts 2 can rotate to a position disconnected from the power rail (not shown in the figure), and when the adapter 100 is in the closed state, the pair of moving contacts 2 can rotate to a position conducting with the power rail.

[0048] Figure 2 shows Figure 1 a schematic structural view of the base 1 shown along one perspective. Figure 3 shows Figure 2 a schematic structural view of the base 1 shown along another perspective. As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in some embodiments, the base 1 includes a first rotation hole 11 and a pair of second rotation holes 12. Obviously, the first rotation hole 11 is located at the central position of the base 1. The pair of second rotation holes 12 can be symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotation hole 11. The grounding member 7 can sequentially pass through the ground electrode member 63, the bracket 8, the rotating member 3, and the first rotation hole 11 of the base 1, and the grounding member 7 is adapted to the first rotation hole 11 so that the rotating member 3 can rotate around the grounding member 7.

[0049] Figure 4 shows Figure 1 a schematic installation view of the elastic member 4 and the moving contact 2 shown. As Figures 2 to 4 shown, in some embodiments, the pair of moving contacts 2 are symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotation hole 11. Each moving contact 2 can be disposed in a corresponding second rotation hole 12 of the pair of second rotation holes 12 so that each moving contact 2 can rotate in the corresponding second rotation hole 12. Since the pair of second rotation holes 12 can be symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotation hole 11, along the axial direction of the center axis of the first rotation hole 11, the projection of the rotation center of the pair of moving contacts 2 and the projection of the first rotation hole 11 are located on the same straight line. The moving contact 2 is closer to the first rotation hole 11 than the corresponding elastic member 4. One end of each elastic member 4 adjacent to the first rotation hole 11 cooperates with the corresponding moving contact 2, and one end of each elastic member 4 facing away from the first rotation hole 11 is connected to the base 1.

[0050] The elastic member 4 according to the embodiments of the present disclosure may be various types of elastic members known currently or available in the future, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this. For example, in some embodiments, the elastic member 4 may be a spring.

[0051] Figure 5 shows Figure 1 a schematic structural view of the moving contact 2 shown. Figure 6 shows Figure 1 a schematic structural view of the adapter 100 shown along a certain perspective, where the adapter 100 is in the closed state. Figure 7 shows Figure 1 a schematic structural view of the adapter 100 shown along another perspective, where the adapter 100 is in the closed state. Figure 8 shows Figure 1 a schematic structural view of the adapter 100 shown along another perspective, where the adapter 100 is in the open state. Figures 6 to 8 The adapters 100 in Figure 5 both show a cover plate 5, a grounding member 7, and a bracket 8. In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 8 shown, each of the pair of moving contacts 2 includes a first rotating portion 21, a contact portion 22, and a first engaging portion 2३. Combining Figures 2 to 8 shown, a part of the first rotating portion 21 is located in the second rotating hole 12, so that the first rotating portion 21 can rotate in the corresponding second rotating hole 12. The contact portion 22 and the first engaging portion 23 are provided on a side of the first rotating portion 21 away from the first rotating hole 11, and the contact portion 22 and the first engaging portion 23 are adjacent to opposite ends of the first rotating portion 21. A first moving contact 221 is also provided on the contact portion 22.

[0052] Continuing to refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , further, the first engaging portion 23 is not located in the second rotating hole 12. When the adapter 100 is in the open state, the contact portion 22 may be located in the second rotating hole 12, and during the process of the adapter 100 switching from the open state to the closed state, the contact portion 22 may rotate out of the second rotating hole 12.

[0053] Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8The cooperation relationship among the paired moving contacts 2, the rotating member 3, and the paired elastic members 4 is shown. Specifically, the rotating member 3 can rotate around the first rotating hole 11, where the rotating member 3 includes paired actuating portions 34, and the paired actuating portions 34 can be symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11. The moving contact 2 is closer to the first rotating hole 11 than the corresponding actuating portion 34. One end of each elastic member 4 can cooperate with the corresponding first cooperation portion 23 in the paired moving contacts 2, and the other end of each elastic member 4 can cooperate with the corresponding actuating portion 34 in the paired actuating portions 34. Each elastic member 4 in the paired elastic members 4 is located between the corresponding moving contact 2 and the corresponding actuating portion 34.

[0054] Obviously, with the above configuration, on the one hand, first, since the rotating member 3 includes paired actuating portions 34 that are symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11, and one end of each elastic member 4 cooperates with the corresponding moving contact 2 in the paired moving contacts 2, and the other end of each elastic member 4 cooperates with the corresponding actuating portion 34 in the paired actuating portions 34. Therefore, when the paired actuating portions 34 in the rotating member 3 rotate, each actuating portion 34 can act on the corresponding elastic member 4 and deform the elastic member 4, and then each elastic member 4 can drive the corresponding moving contact 2 to rotate, thereby realizing the closing operation and the opening operation. Second, the driving structure of the adapter 100 according to the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a total of five parts, namely the paired moving contacts 2, the rotating member 3, and the paired elastic members 4, which can realize the closing and opening operations. The number of parts is small, which is beneficial to cost reduction, and there is no need to rotate the whole adapter 100, thereby improving the convenience of operation. Finally, if the rotating member 3 directly drives the moving contact 2 to rotate, then in the case of accidental contact with the rotating member 3 or asymmetry after long-term wear of the moving contact 2, the contact performance between the paired moving contacts 2 and the power rail will decrease. In the present disclosure, the rotating member 3 and each moving contact 2 are cooperated through an elastic member 4. Since the elastic member 4 has the performance of self-adjustment, each moving contact 2 can rotate to the position where it is in conduction with the power rail, avoiding the problem of interference, thereby improving the contact performance between the paired moving contacts 2 and the power rail and enhancing the stability of the adapter 100.

[0055] On the other hand, since the paired actuating portions 34 and the paired elastic members 4 are symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11 respectively, and each elastic member 4 is located between the corresponding moving contact 2 and the corresponding actuating portion 34. Therefore, if it is necessary to rotate the adapter 100 to realize the closing operation and the opening operation, then during the rotation process, the acting force directions of the paired elastic members 4 in the adapter 100 are opposite, that is, the resultant force in the adapter 100 is zero, the strength requirement for the adapter 100 is lower, and the reliability of the adapter 100 is improved.

[0056] Furthermore, since the first rotating portion 21 can rotate in the corresponding second rotating hole 12, when the paired second rotating holes 12 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the first rotating hole 11, along the axial direction of the central axis of the first rotating hole 11, the projection of the rotation center of the paired moving contacts 2 and the projection of the first rotating hole 11 are located on the same straight line, so as to ensure that the directions of the forces acting on the paired elastic members 4 are opposite, thereby ensuring that the resultant force in the adapter 100 is zero.

[0057] It should be noted that, see Figure 3 and Figure 7 The end of the base 1 facing away from the cover plate 5 includes a reinforcement portion 14. Portions of the first rotation hole 11 and the second rotation hole 12 can be positioned on the reinforcement portion 14. Along the axial direction of the first rotation hole 11, the projections of the pair of actuating portions 34, the pair of elastic members 4, and the pair of movable contacts 2 overlap with the projections of the reinforcement portion 14. Because the reinforcement portion 14 can absorb the internal forces of the adapter 100, the strength and reliability of the adapter 100 are significantly improved.

[0058] Continue reading Figure 4 、 Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 In some embodiments, when the moving contact 2 is closer to the first rotation hole 11 than the corresponding actuating portion 34, the end of each elastic member 4 adjacent to the first rotation hole 11 wraps around the first mating portion 23, the end of the elastic member 4 facing away from the first rotation hole 11 is connected to the base 1, and the actuating portion 34 wraps around the end of the elastic member 4 facing away from the first rotation hole 11. As a result, when the actuating portion 34 is rotated, the actuating portion 34 can act on the elastic member 4 and deform one end of the elastic member 4, and then the other end of the elastic member 4 drives the corresponding moving contact 2 to rotate, thereby achieving the closing and opening operations.

[0059] Return to Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the base 1 may further include a pair of limiting members 13. The pair of limiting members 13 may be provided on the inner wall of the base 1, and the pair of limiting members 13 may be symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the first rotating hole 11. The portion of each elastic member 4 that faces away from the first rotating hole 11 may be located within the corresponding limiting member 13. A pair of inclined surfaces may be provided within each limiting member 13, and the distance between the pair of inclined surfaces gradually decreases along the direction of the first rotating hole 11 pointing to the corresponding limiting member 13. One end of the elastic member 4 may be located between the corresponding pair of inclined surfaces, and each of the pair of inclined surfaces may be located on the rotation path of the elastic member 4 to block and limit the elastic member 4.

[0060] Figure 9 Shown Figure 1 The structural diagram of the rotating member 3 is shown in FIG.Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the rotating member 3 may further include a rotating disk 31 and a first connecting portion 32. The rotating disk 31 is disposed on the base 1. The first connecting portion 32 is disposed on the inner side of the rotating disk 31, and the grounding member 7 can pass through the first connecting portion 32. Pairs of actuating portions 34 are symmetrically disposed on the inner side of the rotating disk 31, and each actuating portion 34 can be connected to the first connecting portion 32. Therefore, when the rotating disk 31 rotates, each actuating portion 34 can also rotate around the grounding member 7.

[0061] Continue reading Figures 7 to 9 In some embodiments, each actuator 34 may further include a main body 341 and a pair of limiting portions 342. The main body 341 is disposed on the inner side of the rotating disk 31. The pair of limiting portions 342 are disposed on the main body 341 and are spaced apart from each other to form a limiting space 101. Because the end of the elastic member 4 facing away from the first rotating hole 11 is located within the limiting space 101, the actuator 34 can cause the elastic member 4 to deform when the actuator 34 rotates.

[0062] Return to Reference Figure 2 、 Figure 7 as well as Figure 8 In some embodiments, the adapter 100 further includes a first conductive member 61 and a second conductive member 62. The first conductive member 61 and the second conductive member 62 are located on opposite sides of the first rotation hole 11, respectively, and the ground pole member 63 is located between the first conductive member 61 and the second conductive member 62. When the movable contact 2 is closer to the first rotation hole 11 than the corresponding actuating portion 34, the first conductive member 61 abuts against one of the first rotation portions 21 of the pair of movable contacts 2, and abuts against the side of this first rotation portion 21 adjacent to the first rotation hole 11. The second conductive member 62 abuts against the other first rotation portion 21 of the pair of movable contacts 2, and abuts against the side of this first rotation portion 21 adjacent to the first rotation hole 11.

[0063] With the above configuration, on the one hand, because the movable contact 2 is adjacent to the first rotating hole 11, and one movable contact 2 directly abuts the first conductive member 61, while the other movable contact 2 directly abuts the second conductive member 62, there is no need for a connector to connect the movable contact 2 to the first conductive member 61 or the second conductive member 62, which can significantly reduce costs. On the other hand, because the portion where the first conductive member 61 abuts the first rotating portion 21 and the portion where the second conductive member 62 abuts the first rotating portion 21 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the first rotating hole 11, and because the paired movable contacts 2 are symmetrically arranged about the central axis of the first rotating hole 11, the abutment force between the movable contact 2 and the first conductive member 61 and the abutment force between the movable contact 2 and the second conductive member 62 are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, and the net force is also zero.

[0064] Figure 10 A cross-sectional view of the adapter 100 according to some other embodiments of the present disclosure is shown. Figure 10 The illustrated adapter 100 is similar to Figure 1 the illustrated adapter 100 in structure, with the main difference being that Figure 10 the illustrated actuating part 34 is closer to the first rotating hole 11 than the corresponding moving contact 2. In the following, the differences between the two will be mainly described, and for the same parts, they will not be elaborated again.

[0065] As Figure 10 shown, the adapter 100 described herein generally includes a base 1, a pair of moving contacts 2, a moving contact driving assembly, a cover plate 5, a first conductive member 61, a second conductive member 62, a ground pole member 63, a grounding member 7, and a bracket 8. The moving contact driving assembly is mainly used to drive the pair of moving contacts 2, and it may include a rotating member 3 and a pair of elastic members 4. The pair of elastic members 4, the cover plate 5, the ground pole member 63, the grounding member 7, and the bracket 8 are similar to the structures described in conjunction with Figures 1 to 9 above, and will not be elaborated herein, while there are differences in the structures of the base 1, the pair of moving contacts 2, the rotating member 3, the first conductive member 61, and the second conductive member 62 compared with those described in conjunction with Figures 1 to 9 above.

[0066] Figure 11 A schematic structural view of the Figure 10 illustrated base 1 along a perspective is shown. Figure 12 A schematic structural view of the Figure 11 illustrated base 1 along another perspective is shown. As Figures 11 to 12 shown, in some embodiments, the base 1 includes a first rotating hole 11 and a pair of second rotating holes 12. Obviously, the first rotating hole 11 is located at the central position of the base 1. The pair of second rotating holes 12 can be symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11. Due to the different structures and positions of the pair of moving contacts 2, the Figures 11 to 12 pair of second rotating holes 12 in Figures 2 to 3 are different in shape from the pair of second rotating holes 12 in

[0067] Figure 13 A schematic structural view of the Figure 10 illustrated moving contact 2 is shown. Figure 14 A schematic structural view of the Figure 10 illustrated adapter 100 along a perspective is shown, where the adapter 100 is in the closed state. Figure 15 A schematic structural view of the Figure 10 illustrated elastic member 4, moving contact 2, and rotating member 3 is shown. In some embodiments, as Figures 13 to 15As shown, each of the paired moving contacts 2 includes a second rotating portion 24, an insulating portion 25, a second engaging portion 26, and a conductive portion 27. The insulating portion 25 and the second engaging portion 26 are provided on one side of the second rotating portion 24, and the insulating portion 25 and the second engaging portion 26 are located on the side of the second rotating portion 24 adjacent to the first rotating hole 11. The insulating portion 25 and the second engaging portion 26 are adjacent to opposite ends of the second rotating portion 24. The conductive portion 27 is wrapped by the insulating portion 25 and the second rotating portion 24, and both ends of the conductive portion 27 are respectively exposed from the insulating portion 25 and the second rotating portion 24. A second moving contact 271 is provided at the end of the conductive portion 27 that is exposed from the insulating portion 25.

[0068] Continue to refer to Figures 11 to 15 , further, the second rotating portion 24 can be located within the second rotating hole 12 so that the second rotating portion 24 can rotate within the corresponding second rotating hole 12. The second engaging portion 26 is not located within the second rotating hole 12. The end of the conductive portion that is exposed from the second rotating portion is not located within the second rotating hole 12. When the adapter 100 is in the open state, the end of the conductive portion 27 that is exposed from the insulating portion 25 and the insulating portion 25 can be located within the second rotating hole 12, and during the process of the adapter 100 switching from the open state to the closed state, the end of the conductive portion 27 that is exposed from the insulating portion 25 and the insulating portion 25 can rotate out of the second rotating hole 12.

[0069] Figure 16 Shows Figure 14 A schematic structural view of the adapter shown along another perspective, where the adapter is in the closed state. Figure 17 Shows Figure 14 A schematic structural view of the adapter shown along another perspective, where the adapter is in the open state. Figures 15 to 17 Shows the cooperation relationship between the paired moving contacts 2, the rotating member 3, and the paired elastic members 4. Specifically, the rotating member 3 can rotate around the first rotating hole 11, where the rotating member 3 includes paired actuating portions 34, and the paired actuating portions 34 can be symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11. The moving contact 2 is farther from the first rotating hole 11 than the corresponding actuating portion 34. One end of each elastic member 4 can cooperate with the corresponding second engaging portion 26 in the paired moving contacts 2, and the other end of each elastic member 4 can cooperate with the corresponding actuating portion 34 in the paired actuating portions 34. Each elastic member 4 in the paired elastic members 4 is located between the corresponding moving contact 2 and the corresponding actuating portion 34.

[0070] Obviously, with the above configuration, on the one hand, first, since the rotating member 3 includes a pair of actuating portions 34 symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11, and one end of each elastic member 4 cooperates with the corresponding moving contact 2 in the pair of moving contacts 2, and the other end of each elastic member 4 cooperates with the corresponding actuating portion 34 in the pair of actuating portions 34. Therefore, when the pair of actuating portions 34 of the rotating member 3 rotates, each actuating portion 34 can act on the corresponding elastic member 4 and deform the elastic member 4, and then each elastic member 4 can drive the corresponding moving contact 2 to rotate, thereby realizing the closing operation and the opening operation. Second, according to the driving structure of the adapter 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the closing and opening operations can be realized by including a total of five parts: a pair of moving contacts 2, a rotating member 3, and a pair of elastic members 4. The number of parts is small, which is beneficial to reducing costs, and there is no need to rotate the whole adapter 100, improving the convenience of operation. Finally, if the rotating member 3 directly drives the moving contact 2 to rotate, then in the case of accidental contact with the rotating member 3 or asymmetry after long-term wear of the moving contact 2, the contact performance between the pair of moving contacts 2 and the power rail will decrease. In the present disclosure, the rotating member 3 and each moving contact 2 are cooperated through an elastic member 4. Since the elastic member 4 has the performance of self-adjustment, each moving contact 2 can be rotated to a position where it is electrically connected to the power rail, avoiding the problem of interference, thereby improving the contact performance between the pair of moving contacts 2 and the power rail and improving the stability of the adapter 100.

[0071] On the other hand, since the pair of actuating portions 34 and the pair of elastic members 4 are symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11 respectively, and each elastic member 4 is located between the corresponding moving contact 2 and the corresponding actuating portion 34. Therefore, if it is necessary to rotate the adapter 100 to realize the closing operation and the opening operation, then during the rotation process, the acting force directions of the pair of elastic members 4 in the adapter 100 are opposite, that is, the resultant force in the adapter 100 is zero, the strength requirement for the adapter 100 is lower, and the reliability of the adapter 100 can be improved.

[0072] Furthermore, since the first rotating portion 21 can rotate in the corresponding second rotating hole 12, therefore, in the case where the pair of second rotating holes 12 are symmetrically arranged about the center axis of the first rotating hole 11, along the axial direction of the center axis of the first rotating hole 11, the projection of the rotation center of the pair of moving contacts 2 and the projection of the first rotating hole 11 are located on the same straight line to ensure that the acting force directions of the pair of elastic members 4 are opposite, and further ensure that the resultant force in the adapter 100 is zero.

[0073] Return to refer Figure 15, when the actuating part 34 is closer to the first rotation hole 11 than the corresponding moving contact 2, one end of the elastic member 4 adjacent to the first rotation hole 11 can wrap the actuating part 34, and the end of the elastic member 4 away from the first rotation hole 11 can wrap the second engaging part 26. Thus, when the actuating part 34 is rotated, the actuating part 34 can act on the elastic member 4 and deform one end of the elastic member 4, and then the other end of the elastic member 4 drives the corresponding moving contact 2 to rotate, thereby realizing the closing and opening operations.

[0074] Figure 18 shows Figure 10 a schematic structural view of the rotating member 3 shown. As Figure 18 shown, in some embodiments, the rotating member 3 may further include a rotating disk 31 and a second connecting part 33. The rotating disk 31 is arranged on the base 1. The second connecting part 33 can extend along the radial direction of the rotating disk 31, and both ends of the second connecting part 33 are respectively connected to the inner side surface of the rotating disk 31. Each actuating part 34 is arranged on the outer side surface of the second connecting part 33, and the paired actuating parts 34 are symmetrically arranged. Since the second connecting part 33 extends along the radial direction of the rotating disk 31, and the paired actuating parts 34 are symmetrically arranged on the second connecting part 33, the second connecting part 33 has a certain thickness, resulting in an increase in the thickness of the rotating member 3, thereby increasing the thickness of the adapter 100.

[0075] Referring back to Figure 13 and Figure 16 , in some embodiments, the adapter 100 may further include a first conductive member 61 and a second conductive member 62. The first conductive member 61 and the second conductive member 62 are respectively located on opposite sides of the first rotation hole 11, and the ground electrode member 63 is located between the first conductive member 61 and the second conductive member 62. When the moving contact 2 is farther from the first rotation hole 11 than the corresponding actuating part 34, the first conductive member 61 can extend away from the first rotation hole 11 and wrap the corresponding moving contact 2, and the first conductive member 61 wraps the end of the conductive part 27 exposed from the second rotating part 24. The second conductive member 62 can extend away from the first rotation hole 11 and wrap the corresponding moving contact 2, and the second conductive member 62 wraps the end of the conductive part 27 exposed from the second rotating part 24. Obviously, since the moving contact 2 is away from the first rotation hole 11, the first conductive member 61 needs to extend away from the first rotation hole 11 and wrap the corresponding moving contact 2, and the second conductive member 62 needs to extend away from the first rotation hole 11 and wrap the corresponding moving contact 2. Therefore, Figure 10 the cost of the adapter 100 Figure 1 is higher than the cost of the adapter 100.
