[0019] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 An exemplary working process for closing the object, as shown in the diagram, is as follows:

[0020] A portable power strip includes a locking pin 09 slidably connected to a locking block 08, a sliding pin 12 fixedly connected to the other side of the locking block 08, one end of each connecting rod 10 fixedly connected to a locking block 08, an end cap 02 slidably connected to six connecting rods 10, the end cap 02 having six sliding tracks 11 inside, a rotating cylinder 34 fixedly connected to the other ends of the six connecting rods 10, a retaining ring 13 slidably connected inside the rotating cylinder 34, and a knob 01 fixedly connected to the retaining ring 13. When the portable power strip is installed, pressing down on the knob 01 causes the protrusion on the retaining ring 13 fixedly connected to the knob 01 to engage with the groove inside the rotating cylinder 34 slidably connected to the retaining ring 13, thus fixing the retaining ring 13 to the rotating cylinder 34. Then, press the knob 01 downwards to cause the connecting rod 10, which is fixedly connected to the rotating cylinder 34, to slide downwards along the slide rail 11 inside the end cover 02. At this time, turn the knob 01 clockwise to drive the rotating cylinder 34 to rotate clockwise, which in turn drives the connecting rod 10, which is sliding in the slide rail 11, to rotate clockwise. This causes the connecting rod 10 to engage with the other end of the slide rail 11. As the connecting rod 10 moves downwards, it causes the locking block 08, which is slidably connected to the connecting rod 10, to move downwards. When the connecting rod 10 is engaged with the other end of the slide rail 11, the locking pin 09, which is fixedly connected to the connecting rod 10, slides outwards from the locking block 08. As the locking block 08 moves downwards, the sliding pin 12, which is fixedly connected to one side of it, also descends, thus achieving the closing effect.

[0021] Through observation Figures 1 to 10An exemplary working process of the fixing device can be obtained from the content shown in the figure:

[0022] A knob 01 is rotatably connected to the end cap 02. Six locking blocks 08 are slidably connected to the lower end of the end cap 02. Each locking pin 09 is slidably connected to a locking block 08. The lead screw 06 is threadedly connected to the middle of the lower end of the end cap 02. After the portable power strip is installed, the knob 01 is rotated counterclockwise, causing the locking pin 09 connected inside to rotate, so that the locking pin 09 slides into the locking block 08. Then the locking block 08 will move upward, causing the locking device to reverse, so that the locking effect of the device is released. Then the knob 01 is rotated, causing the lead screw 06 fixedly connected to its lower end to rotate, so that the lead screw 06 will move downward, thereby causing the end cap 02 to move downward. When the lead screw 06 is fully inserted into the internal threaded rotating cylinder 15, the dual-purpose power strip 03 that spreads to both ends is completely dispersed. The end cap 02 moves down to the middle plate 07, fixing the dual-purpose power strip 03, thereby achieving the effect of fixing the device.

[0023] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 An exemplary working process for expansion, based on the content shown in the figure, is as follows:

[0024] It also includes six trapezoidal support columns 05 slidably connected to the base plate 17. One end of each connecting bridge 14 is slidably connected to a trapezoidal support column 05, and each internal toothed cylinder 16 is fixedly connected to the other end of a connecting bridge 14. The internal threaded cylinder 15 is internally meshed with the internal toothed cylinder 16. After the portable power strip is installed, when the upper screw 06 rotates to the lower end along the internal thread in the internal threaded cylinder 15, the internal toothed cylinder 16, which is meshed with its outer end, will be driven by the internal threaded cylinder 15. This causes the connecting bridge 14, which is fixedly connected to the outer end of the internal toothed cylinder 16, to move outward, and the trapezoidal support column 05, which is slidably connected to the outer end of the connecting bridge 14, to move outward along the base plate 17, thereby expanding the device.

[0025] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 An exemplary working process that can be derived from the content shown in the figure is as follows:

[0026] The rectangular connecting door 18 is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal support column 05, and the connecting bridge 14 is slidably connected to the outer end of the rectangular connecting door 18. The rectangular connecting door 18 meshes with the gear column 21. One side of the transmission belt 20 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the gear column 21, and the transmission gear shaft 19 is rotatably connected to the other side of the transmission belt 20. After the portable power strip is installed, when the lead screw 06 drives the internal threaded drum 15, the internal threaded drum 15 drives the internal gear drum 16 meshing at the outer end to rotate, which in turn drives the meshing transmission gear shaft 19 to rotate. This causes the transmission gear shaft 19 to drive the transmission belt 20 rotatably connected to it to rotate, which in turn causes the gear column 21 rotatably connected to the other end of the transmission belt 20 to rotate. When the gear column 21 rotates, it will drive the rectangular connecting door 18 meshing on it to move, causing the rectangular connecting door 18 to move outward. Since the rectangular connecting door 18 is fixedly connected to the trapezoidal support column 05, the trapezoidal support column 05 moves outward, thereby achieving the pushing effect.

[0027] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 An exemplary workflow that can be supported by the content shown in the figure is as follows:

[0028] The two internally threaded cylindrical columns 22 are fixedly connected to the side plates on both sides of the trapezoidal support column 05. Each threaded connecting column 24 is threadedly connected to an internally threaded cylindrical column 22. The gear column 23 is fixedly connected to two threaded connecting columns 24 at both ends. After the portable power strip is installed, when the trapezoidal support column 05 moves outward, the gear column 23 inside it rotates, thereby driving the threaded connecting columns 24 fixedly connected at both ends of the gear column 23 to rotate. Since the internally threaded cylindrical columns 22 are threadedly connected to the threaded connecting columns 24, and the internally threaded cylindrical columns 22 are fixedly connected to the triangular columns on both sides of the trapezoidal support column 05, when the threaded column 24 rotates, the internally threaded cylindrical columns 22 are driven to move outward through the threaded connection, thereby increasing the contact area between the trapezoidal support column 05 and the spread-out dual-purpose power strip 03, thereby increasing the support effect of the support column.

[0029] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 The exemplary process for reinforcement, as shown in the figure, is as follows:

[0030] The internal toothed belt 25 meshes with the gear post 23, and the bevel gear post 26 is rotatably connected to the other end of the internal toothed belt 25. The bevel gears at both ends of the bevel gear post 26 mesh with a half-bevel gear post 28. Each lifting belt 27 is rotatably connected to the other end of a half-bevel gear post 28, and the insertion plate 29 is fixedly connected to the other end of the lifting belt 27. When the portable power strip is installed, when the triangular posts at both ends of the trapezoidal support post 05 are pushed out, the internal toothed belt 25 rotatably connected to the gear post 23... Driven by the rotation, the other end of the internal gear belt 25 is rotatably connected to the bevel gear column 26, causing the bevel gear column 26 to rotate. The half bevel gear column 28 meshing with the outer end of the bevel gear column 26 rotates under its drive. When the half bevel gear column 28 rotates, the lifting belt 27 rotatably connected to its upper end also rotates, thereby driving the insertion plate 29 on the other side of the lifting belt 27 to rise, so that the protrusion at the upper end of the insertion plate 29 slides into the groove at the lower end of the upper open dual-purpose power strip 03, thereby fixing the dual-purpose power strip 03 and achieving the reinforcement effect.

[0031] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 An exemplary working process for connection can be derived from the content shown in the figure:

[0032] The plug 30 is slidably connected to the base plate 17, the push block 31 is slidably connected to the plug 30, one end of the wire 32 is fixedly connected to the plug 30, and the adapter post 33 is fixedly connected to the other end of the wire 32. After the portable power strip is installed and put into use, the plug 30 slidably connected to the base plate 17 is pulled outward. When the plug 30 is pulled outward, the wire 32 connected at the rear end will also slide outward. When the wire 32 slides to the end, the adapter post 33 fixedly connected to the wire 32 will stabilize and connect the wire 32. After the plug 30 is pulled out, the push block 31 is pushed to slide outward, thereby achieving the connection effect.

[0033] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 An exemplary working process that can be protected based on the content shown in the figure is as follows:

[0034] It also includes each rotating shaft 04 fixedly connected to a dual-purpose power strip 03, and each middle plate 07 rotatably connected to a rotating shaft 04; after the portable power strip is installed, the lower end of the dual-purpose power strip 03 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 04. When the dual-purpose power strip 03 rotates, it will drive the rotating shaft 04 to rotate. At the same time, the rotating shaft 04 is rotatably connected inside the middle plate 07. When the dual-purpose power strip 03 is folded up and closed, it will present a hexagonal prism. At the same time, each dual-purpose power strip 03 is sealed together, so that the internal environment is separated from the outside environment, which can isolate water splashed from the outside, thereby achieving a protective effect.

[0035] Through observation Figures 1 to 10 Based on the content shown in the figure, an exemplary working process that is easy to carry is as follows:

[0036] The six trapezoidal support columns 05 are fixedly connected to the lower end of the middle plate 07, and the bottom plate 17 is slidably connected to the six trapezoidal support columns 05. After the portable power strip is installed, the power strip is folded up and the whole power strip presents a cylindrical shape, so that the power strip can be carried with you without interfering with the movement of the person carrying it. The portable power strip can be carried into a backpack, thus achieving the effect of easy carrying.
