[0001] This invention relates to the field of power distribution equipment technology, specifically to an embedded socket and a home panel. Background Technology

[0002] Current socket products are mainly fixed sockets, where the socket type is determined during the socket design phase. When the demand for socket type changes later, the socket needs to be redesigned, the molds reprocessed, and the production line readjusted. Alternatively, due to market demand for different types of sockets, manufacturers may need to set up multiple different production lines to produce different types of sockets. Current fixed sockets are insufficient to meet the dynamic demand for sockets. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This invention provides an embedded socket to solve the problem of high costs associated with producing different types of fixed sockets.

[0004] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an embedded socket, comprising: A universal base has a receiving cavity, including a first surface and a second surface disposed opposite to each other. The first surface has a plurality of mounting positions with the same structure and communicating with the receiving cavity. The mounting positions have a first positioning structure.

[0005] Beneficial effects: In the production process, by producing a universal matrix and various functional components with the same positioning elements, the functional components are installed with the universal matrix. With the cooperation of the first positioning structure and the second positioning structure, multiple functional components can be installed with the universal matrix in the same way, reducing the adjustment cost of the production line.

[0006] In one optional embodiment, the functional component includes an electrical interface component, which is any one of a USB-A interface component, a USB-C interface component, a three-pole socket component, and a two-pole socket component; Correspondingly, the first end of the positioning member is flush with the first surface of the general matrix and is formed with a panel structure corresponding to the functional member; The second end of the positioning member is formed with a cover, and the electrical interface member is placed inside the cover.

[0007] Beneficial effects: Functional components can be selected and configured with USB interface components, three-pole socket components, and two-pole socket components according to production needs. One or more of the different functional components can be combined. Different functional components can be installed in the universal base according to actual needs without changing the structure of the universal base. Sockets with multiple interface types can be manufactured without adjusting the production line of the universal base, thus saving production costs.

[0008] In one optional embodiment, the functional component further includes an electrical control component for controlling the on / off state of the electrical interface component; Correspondingly, the positioning element includes: The base and sidewalls fit into the mounting position; A control block is connected to the base and moves relative to the first surface. When the control block moves to a first position, the electrical interface is turned on; when the control block moves to a second position, the electrical interface is turned off.

[0009] Beneficial effects: The electrical control unit is set up to control the on and off of multiple functional components, which can realize power supply management of functional modules, supply power on demand, control the electrical control unit according to the usage requirements, and thus control whether the socket is powered on, which is convenient to operate. In addition, the side wall of the base of the electrical control unit fits into the mounting position to install the electrical control unit in the mounting position, which is compatible with the universal motherboard.

[0010] In one alternative implementation, the functional component further includes a non-electrical component; Correspondingly, the panel structure of the positioning component is a closed structure, used to seal the mounting position.

[0011] Beneficial effects: By using a flat panel structure for non-electrical components, the installation position can be sealed off when the demand for functional components is low. This prevents foreign objects from entering the socket and posing safety hazards, thus improving socket safety. Furthermore, it enhances the socket's aesthetics, avoiding empty spaces and improving visual appeal. By sealing the installation position with non-electrical components, no adjustments to the universal base material are needed to meet usage requirements, reducing the cost of changing the universal base material production line.

[0012] In one optional embodiment, the first surface has a mounting groove, and a panel layer is disposed in the mounting groove.

[0013] Beneficial effects: A panel layer is set on the first surface of the universal base, and the seams are covered around the perimeter. The panel layer can be made of safe materials with flame-retardant, waterproof and non-conductive functions. The panel layer can make the recessed socket flush with the panel on which the recessed socket is set, and can better set the appearance of the socket, improve aesthetics. The appearance of the panel layer can be flexibly adjusted according to the surrounding environment to meet the user's needs and improve the user experience. The mounting groove is set on the first surface of the universal base to facilitate the fixing of the panel layer.

[0014] In one alternative embodiment, the universal matrix includes a protrusion and a base portion, the protrusion being connected to one surface of the base portion and protruding relative to the base portion, and the mounting position being disposed on the surface of the protrusion facing away from the base portion.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The universal base is provided with a protrusion and a base, with the protrusion protruding from the surface of the base. When the recessed socket is installed in the panel opening, the base abuts against the inner surface of the panel, while the protrusion is flush with the outer surface of the panel, ensuring aesthetics and facilitating installation and fixation. The abutment of the base can provide a positioning signal.

[0016] In one optional embodiment, the first positioning structure is an annular groove, and the second positioning structure is a locking block adapted to fit into the annular groove. The second positioning structure further includes a guide portion located on the cover body. The guide portion is used to guide the cover body through the annular groove so that the cover body is placed in the receiving cavity.

[0017] Beneficial effects: The first positioning structure is set as an annular groove and the second positioning structure is set as a locking block. The functional components are fixed by the annular groove and the locking block, so that the functional components are stably fixed in the universal body, preventing the functional components from shifting or detaching from the universal body during the movement of the socket or during use.

[0018] During production, the design of the guide section allows the functional components to be pressed into the receiving cavity along the opening of the mounting position, and the cover can protect the internal functional components.

[0019] In one alternative implementation, the functional component includes a circuit board; The base plate is formed with support columns, which abut against the circuit board.

[0020] Beneficial effects: Setting support columns on both sides of the functional components can support and limit the circuit board, improving the stability of the fixation. By setting support ribs on the sides of the support columns, the rigidity and stability of the support columns can be improved, making the support columns less prone to deformation and bending. Setting the direction of the support ribs to extend along the insertion direction of the functional components, so that the extension direction of the support ribs is parallel to the main force direction of the support column, can transmit pressure to the base plate more efficiently and effectively prevent the support columns from bending.

[0021] In one alternative embodiment, the accommodating cavity has a wiring space; The universal motherboard has a connection hole that communicates with the wiring space, and the connection hole is used to connect wires or plugs.

[0022] Beneficial effects: Connection holes connected to the wiring space are opened on both sides of the universal motherboard along its length, allowing wires to be led out from either side or from both sides of the connection holes. The direction of the wires can be adjusted according to actual needs to meet the wiring requirements in different situations, improve the adaptability of the socket in different usage scenarios, and enable the universal motherboard to adapt to more usage situations, eliminating the need to produce universal motherboards with wiring holes on one or both sides separately.

[0023] Secondly, the present invention also provides a furniture panel having a panel opening thereon, wherein an embedded socket is embedded in the panel opening, and the surface of the embedded socket is flush with the surface of the furniture panel.

[0024] Beneficial effects: Furniture panels can include a variety of panel structures for furniture in various usage scenarios, such as bedside tables, wall panels, and display cabinets. Embedded sockets can be directly integrated into the furniture structure, flush with the furniture panel, to achieve a hidden and aesthetically pleasing effect. Attached Figure Description

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] The following is combined Figures 1 to 11 The following describes embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 11According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embedded socket is provided, comprising: a universal base 1, multiple functional components 2, and a base plate 3. The universal base 1 has a receiving cavity, including a first surface 11 and a second surface 13 disposed opposite to each other. The first surface 11 forms multiple mounting positions 12 with identical structures communicating with the receiving cavity. Each mounting position 12 forms a first positioning structure 121. The second surface 13 forms a mounting opening 17 communicating with the receiving cavity. The multiple functional components 2 include a positioning member 21 and a functional member 22. The positioning member 21 is fitted into the mounting position 12, and its first end is adapted to the first surface 11. The positioning member 21 is provided with a second positioning structure 212, which cooperates with and connects to the first positioning structure 121. The functional member 22 is disposed within the receiving cavity and connected to the positioning member 21. The base plate 3 is used to close the mounting opening 17.

[0031] In this embodiment, during the production process, by producing a general-purpose matrix 1 and various functional components 2 with the same positioning element 21, the functional components 2 are installed with the general-purpose matrix 1. With the cooperation of the first positioning structure 121 and the second positioning structure 212, multiple functional components 2 can cooperate with the general-purpose matrix 1 through the same installation method, thereby reducing the adjustment cost of the production line.

[0032] Specifically, by cooperating with multiple functional components 2 and multiple mounting positions 12, various types of recessed sockets can be assembled to meet usage requirements. During the installation of the recessed socket, the functional component 2 is passed through the mounting position 12, so that the positioning member 21 of the functional component 2 is fitted into the mounting position 12. At this time, the second positioning structure 212 of the positioning member 21 is connected to the first positioning structure 121 of the mounting position 12. According to this assembly method, the recessed socket completes the assembly of multiple functional components 2.

[0033] Furthermore, since the universal mother body 1 has mounting positions 12 and mounting openings 17 on two surfaces respectively, multiple functional components 2 can be selectively installed into the receiving cavity of the universal mother body 1 from either the mounting position 12 or the mounting opening 17 according to their own structure. Then, the base plate 3 is placed over the mounting opening 17. At this time, the base plate 3 not only closes the mounting opening 17, but also cooperates with the first positioning structure 121 to limit the multiple functional components 2, constraining them within the receiving cavity of the universal mother body 1 and preventing them from detaching from the cavity.

[0034] In some embodiments, the positioning member 21 is inserted into the universal motherboard 1 through a mounting position 12 formed as a hole or opening, and the functional member 22 is assembled below the corresponding positioning member 21 through a mounting opening 17. Alternatively, the functional member 22 is integrated with the positioning member 21 and then inserted into the universal motherboard 1 through the mounting position 12.

[0035] Specifically, when the functional component 22 in the functional component 2 is a three-pole socket component or a two-pole socket component, the outer shell of the functional component 2 is a positioning component 21. The functional component 22 can be disposed inside the outer shell through the opening of the outer shell. During installation, the positioning component 21 is installed on the general-purpose mother body 1 by the mounting position 12, and the functional component 22 is installed into the outer shell through the mounting opening 17. As a variation, the functional component 22 can also be integrated with the positioning component 21 which is formed as the outer shell and installed together through the mounting position 12.

[0036] The specific embodiments of each part of the embedded socket in this application are described separately below.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the functional component 22 includes an electrical interface component, which is any one of a USB-A interface component, a USB-C interface component, a three-pole socket component, and a two-pole socket component; correspondingly, the first end of the positioning component 21 is flush with the first surface 11 of the general-purpose matrix 1 and is formed with a panel structure 211 corresponding to the functional component 22; the second end of the positioning component 21 forms a cover, and the electrical interface component is placed inside the cover.

[0038] In this embodiment, the functional component 22 can be configured with USB interface component, three-pole socket component and two-pole socket component according to production needs. One or more of the different functional components 2 can be combined. Different functional components 2 can be selected and installed in the general matrix 1 according to actual needs. There is no need to change the structure of the general matrix 1. Sockets with multiple interface types can be manufactured. There is no need to adjust the production line of the general matrix 1, thus saving production costs.

[0039] Specifically, the surface of the panel structure 211 is provided with a socket structure for inserting a power socket or plug. Different functional components 22 correspond to different panel structures 211: USB interface components correspond to panel structures 211 with USB interfaces, three-pole socket components correspond to panel structures 211 with three-pole sockets, and two-pole socket components correspond to panel structures 211 with two-pole sockets. The USB interface components include USB-A and USB-C interfaces, corresponding to panel structures 211 with both USB-A and USB-C interfaces.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the functional component 2 further includes an electrical control component for controlling the on / off state of the electrical interface component; correspondingly, the positioning component 21 includes: a base 221 with its sidewall fitted into the mounting position 12; and a control block 222 connected to the base 221 and movable relative to the first surface 11. When the control block 222 moves to the first position, the electrical interface component is turned on; when the control block 222 moves to the second position, the electrical interface component is turned off.

[0041] In this embodiment, an electrical control component is provided to control the on / off state of multiple functional components 2. This allows for power supply management of the functional modules, providing power as needed, and controlling the electrical control component according to usage requirements. This controls whether the socket is powered on, making operation convenient. Furthermore, the side wall of the base 221 of the electrical control component is fitted into the mounting position 12 to adapt the electrical control component to the mounting position 12 and make it compatible with the universal motherboard 1.

[0042] Specifically, a switch is installed in the socket to control the power supply to and from the socket. Multiple switches are installed in the socket to control the power supply to and from each functional component 2. Alternatively, switches can be configured to control the power supply to and from one or more functional components 2, depending on actual needs.

[0043] Specifically, the control block 222 can be a push button switch, a toggle switch, a proximity switch, etc. The control block 222 can protrude from the general-purpose mother body 1 or not. When the control block 222 is set as a toggle switch, the first positioning structure 121 has a shaft hole that cooperates with the rotating shaft of the toggle switch.

[0044] In one embodiment, the functional component 22 further includes a non-electrical component; correspondingly, the panel structure 211 of the positioning component 21 is a closed structure used to seal the mounting position 12.

[0045] In this embodiment, the panel structure 211 is set as a non-electrical component with a flat structure. When the demand for the number of functional components 2 is small, the non-electrical component can be used to seal the mounting position 12. On the one hand, it can prevent foreign objects from entering the socket and causing safety hazards, thus improving the safety of the socket; on the other hand, it can improve the aesthetics of the socket and avoid empty spaces in the socket, which would affect the visual effect. By setting the mounting position 12 to seal it with a non-electrical component, it is possible to adapt to the usage requirements without adjusting the universal base 1, thus reducing the change costs of the universal base 1 production line.

[0046] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 11 As shown, in one embodiment, the first surface 11 has a mounting groove 4, and a panel layer 5 is disposed in the mounting groove 4.

[0047] In this embodiment, a panel layer 5 is provided on the first surface 11 of the universal base 1, and the seams are covered around it. The panel layer 5 can be made of a safe material with flame-retardant, waterproof and non-conductive functions. The panel layer 5 can make the embedded socket flush with the panel on which the embedded socket is set, and can better set the appearance of the socket and improve aesthetics. The appearance of the panel layer 5 can be flexibly adjusted according to the surrounding environment to meet the user's needs and improve the user experience. The mounting groove 4 is provided on the first surface 11 of the universal base 1 to facilitate the fixing of the panel layer 5.

[0048] Specifically, the outer surface of panel layer 5 is flush with the outer surface of the panel on which the recessed socket is installed. The perimeter seams of panel layer 5 have flame-retardant and waterproof properties. Panel layer 5 is replaceable. Depending on the surrounding environment, the pattern of panel layer 5 can be set to be the same as or different from the pattern of the panel on which the recessed socket is installed. Panel layer 5 has sockets for different functional components 22.

[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 As shown, in one embodiment, the universal base 1 includes a protrusion 14 and a base 15. The protrusion 14 is connected to one surface of the base 15 and protrudes relative to the base 15. The mounting position 12 is disposed on the surface of the protrusion 14 facing away from the base 15.

[0050] In this embodiment, a protrusion 14 and a base 15 are provided on the general body 1, so that the protrusion 14 protrudes from the surface of the base 15. When the embedded socket is installed in the panel opening, the base 15 abuts against the inner surface of the panel, while the protrusion 14 is flush with the outer surface of the panel, ensuring aesthetics and facilitating installation and fixation. The abutment of the base 15 can provide a positioning signal.

[0051] Specifically, when the universal base 1 is embedded inside the panel on which the recessed socket is installed, the protrusion 14 is adapted to pass through the panel opening and engage with the panel opening, so that the upper surface of the protrusion 14 is flush with the outer surface of the panel, and the base 15 abuts against the inner surface of the panel.

[0052] Specifically, by fitting the protrusion 14 into the panel opening and making the upper surface of the protrusion 14 flush with the outer surface of the panel, the flatness and stability after embedding and installation can be ensured, thus guaranteeing aesthetics. By having the base 15 abut against the inner surface of the panel, it can play a positioning role, eliminating the need to repeatedly adjust the installation depth of the socket to make the exposed surface of the socket flush with the plane where the socket is installed.

[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the first positioning structure 121 is an annular slot, and the second positioning structure 212 is a block adapted to fit into the annular slot; the second positioning structure 212 also includes a guide portion 2121, which is located on the cover and is used to guide the cover through the annular slot so that the cover is placed in the receiving cavity.

[0054] Specifically, the annular slot is provided with a bayonet 1211.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first positioning structure 121 is set as an annular slot and the second positioning structure 212 is set as a locking block. The functional component 2 is fixed by the annular slot and the locking block, so that the functional component 2 is stably fixed in the universal mother body 1, preventing the functional component 2 from shifting or detaching from the universal mother body 1 during the movement of the socket or during use.

[0056] During production, through the design of the guide section 2121, the functional component 2 can press the cover into the receiving cavity along the opening of the mounting position 12, and the cover can protect the internal functional component 22.

[0057] Specifically, the second positioning structure 212 is a plastic part with a certain elasticity. During the engagement of the guide part 2121 and the annular groove, the second positioning structure 212 is compressed. When installed in the predetermined position, the second positioning structure 212 restores its deformation, thus achieving a limiting effect. The first positioning structure 121 is a non-elastic structure.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the functional component 22 includes a circuit board; the base plate 3 is formed with a support post 31, which abuts against the circuit board.

[0059] In this embodiment, support columns 31 are provided on both sides of the functional component 2 to support and limit the circuit board, thereby improving the stability of the fixation. By providing support ribs 313 on the side of the support columns 31, the rigidity and stability of the support columns 31 can be improved, making the support columns 31 less prone to deformation and bending. The direction of the support ribs 313 is set to extend along the insertion direction of the functional component 2, so that the extension direction of the support ribs 313 is parallel to the main force direction of the support columns 31, which can more efficiently transmit the pressure to the base plate 3 and effectively prevent the support columns 31 from bending.

[0060] Specifically, the support column 31 includes a first support column 311 and a second support column 312.

[0061] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figures 8 to 10 As shown, in one embodiment, the accommodating cavity has a wiring space; the general-purpose mother body 1 has a connection hole 16 communicating with the wiring space, and the connection hole 16 is used to connect the wire 6 or the plug 7.

[0062] In some embodiments, the plug 7 can be bonded to the general-purpose mother body 1 or be integrally molded and detachable, allowing the plug 7 structure on one or both sides to be disassembled as needed.

[0063] In some embodiments, the sidewall of the connection hole 16 near the accommodating cavity is provided with an inwardly protruding snap-fit ​​portion 161, which snaps into the outer shell of the wire 6 to achieve axial fixation of the wire 6.

[0064] In this embodiment, connection holes 16 communicating with the wiring space are opened on both sides of the universal mother body 1 along its length, so that the wire 6 can be led out from either side or from both sides of the connection holes 16. The direction of the wire 6 can be adjusted according to actual needs to meet the wiring requirements of the wire 6 in different situations, improve the adaptability of the socket in different usage scenarios, and enable the universal mother body 1 to adapt to more usage situations, without the need to produce universal mother bodies 1 with wiring holes on one or both sides separately.

[0065] In one specific embodiment, the general-purpose main body 1 has connection holes 16 on both sides along its length. The base plate 3 has a support 32 at the position corresponding to the connection hole 16. The wire 6 is led out from the connection hole 16 on one side, and the connection hole 16 on the other side where the wire 6 is not led out is sealed with a plug 7. Alternatively, the general-purpose main body 1 may have a connection hole 16 communicating with the wiring space on one side along its length.

[0066] In another specific embodiment, the general-purpose mother body 1 has connection holes 16 on both sides in its length direction, and the base plate 3 has a support 32 at the position corresponding to the connection hole 16. The wire 6 is led out from the connection holes 16 on both sides.

[0067] The following uses multiple functional components 2, including a USB interface, an electrical control component, and two sockets, as an example to illustrate the overall solution of the embedded socket of this application.

[0068] First, the USB interface, electrical control components, and two sockets are all provided with positioning components 21 and functional components 22. The positioning component 21 of the socket covers the top of the functional component 22 of the socket. During the installation of the embedded socket, the socket is installed from the mounting position 12 of the universal mother 1 to the receiving cavity of the universal mother 1. The positioning component 21 of the socket is provided with a guide part 2121, which can guide the socket during the installation process.

[0069] Then, the positioning member 21 of the USB interface device covers the top of the functional member 22 of the USB interface device, and the functional member 22 of the USB interface device includes a USB circuit board. Since the size of the USB circuit board is larger than the size of the mounting position 12 of the universal motherboard 1, the functional member 22 of the USB interface device is installed from the mounting opening 17 of the universal motherboard 1 into the receiving cavity of the universal motherboard 1, and the positioning member 21 of the USB interface device is installed from the mounting position 12 of the universal motherboard 1 into the receiving cavity of the universal motherboard 1. Then, the positioning member 21 and the functional member 22 of the USB interface device are fixed in the receiving cavity of the universal motherboard 1.

[0070] Furthermore, the positioning member 21 of the electrical control component covers the top of the functional member 22 of the electrical control component, and the functional member 22 of the electrical control component includes a control circuit board. Since the size of the control circuit board is larger than the size of the mounting position 12 of the universal mother 1, the functional member 22 of the electrical control component is installed from the mounting opening 17 of the universal mother 1 into the receiving cavity of the universal mother 1, and the positioning member 21 of the electrical control component is installed from the mounting position 12 of the universal mother 1 into the receiving cavity of the universal mother 1. Then, the positioning member 21 and the functional member 22 of the electrical control component are fixed in the receiving cavity of the universal mother 1.

[0071] Finally, the base plate 3 is placed over the installation opening 17. At this time, the base plate 3 can not only close the installation opening 17, but also cooperate with the first positioning structure 121 to limit the multiple functional components 2, constrain the multiple functional components 2 in the accommodating cavity of the general mother body 1, and prevent the multiple functional components 2 from coming out of the accommodating cavity of the general mother body 1.

[0072] According to an embodiment of the present invention, another aspect provides a home panel having a panel opening thereon, wherein an embedded socket is embedded in the panel opening, and the surface of the embedded socket is flush with the surface of the home panel.

[0073] Specifically, furniture panels can be applied to bedside tables, desks, TV stands, display cabinets, and other furniture.

[0074] Although embodiments of the invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention, and such modifications and variations all fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
