DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects achieved by the present invention easy to understand, the present invention is further described below in conjunction with specific implementation methods.

[0023] like Figure 1 , 2As shown, an intelligent socket with arc protection function described in an embodiment of the utility model comprises a socket body 1; a pair of mounting blocks 11 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the socket body 1; the mounting blocks 11 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the socket body 1 and have the same structure; a guide rail 12 is provided on the side wall of the socket body 1; a pair of fixing rods 13 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the guide rail 12; the fixing rods 13 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide rail 12 and have the same structure; a rubber sleeve 14 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the fixing rod 13; a slider 15 is slidably connected to the inner side wall of the guide rail 12; an insulating plate 16 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the slider 15; a clearance hole 17 is opened on the side wall of the insulating plate 16; when in use, the fixing rod 13 is aligned with the hole on the side wall of the mounting block 11 by holding the guide rail 12, and then the fixing rod 13 is inserted into the mounting block 11, at this time, the rubber sleeve 14 will generate a certain friction force when in contact with the mounting block 11, thereby fixing the guide rail 12. Later, when it is necessary to insert the plug into the socket body 1, the slider 15 is pulled to slide on the inner wall of the guide rail 12. When the clearance hole 17 is moved to the corresponding position, the plug can be inserted into the socket body 1 through the clearance hole 17. At this time, the arc generated during insertion will be blocked by the insulating plate 16, so that the creepage distance of the arc is increased and the contact with external flammable materials is reduced. In this process, the arc generated when the plug is inserted into the socket body 1 can be reduced, resulting in a large amount of heat released by the arc that can easily ignite the surrounding flammable materials, causing certain safety hazards. At this time, the creepage distance of the arc is increased by the insulating plate 16, thereby reducing the generation of the arc when the plug is inserted, thereby improving the safety of the socket body 1 when in use.

[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, the side wall of the insulating plate 16 is evenly fixed with a plurality of cleaning brushes 2; the side wall of the cleaning brush 2 is fixed with a connecting rod 21; the connecting rod 21 penetrates the wall of the cleaning brush 2 and is fixed thereto; the side wall of the guide rail 12 is provided with a collecting box 22; when in use, the cleaning brush 2 will contact the side wall of the socket body 1 during the process of moving the insulating plate 16, and at this time, the side wall of the socket body 1 can be cleaned by the cleaning brush 2, and the dust and impurities attached to the side wall of the socket body 1 can be swept away, and then swept into the collecting box 22, and the dust and impurities can be collected by the collecting box 22 , and when the cleaning brush 2 is cleaning, multiple cleaning brushes 2 can be fixedly connected through the connecting rod 21 to be concentrated together. In this process, the socket body 1 can be reduced after long-term use, causing external dust and impurities to easily adhere to the side wall of the socket body 1, making it inconvenient to clean them, and easily corroding the socket body 1 over time. At this time, the cleaning brush 2 and the collection box 22 are set, thereby playing a role in cleaning and collecting the dust and impurities attached to the side wall of the socket body 1. At the same time, the cleaning effect of the cleaning brush 2 during cleaning can be improved by the connecting rod 21.

[0025] like Figure 1, 3 As shown, the side wall of the guide rail 12 is fixedly connected to a mounting plate 3; the side wall of the mounting plate 3 is provided with a through hole 31; the side wall of the mounting plate 3 is fixedly connected to a support plate 32; the side wall of the support plate 32 is fixedly connected to a spring 33; the end of the spring 33 is fixedly connected to a plug rod 34; the side wall of the plug rod 34 is fixedly connected to a pull plate 35; the pull plate 35 passes through the wall of the support plate 32 and is slidably connected thereto; the side wall of the collection box 22 is fixedly connected to a fixing block 36; the side wall of the fixing block 36 is provided with a groove 37; when in use, the staff puts their fingers on the side wall of the pull plate 35 and pulls it, and when the plug rod 34 is pulled to a suitable position, the collection box 22 is held, and the fixing block 36 is inserted into the through hole 31 When the fixing block 36 is passed through the through hole 31, the groove 37 will correspond to the position of the insertion rod 34. At this time, by loosening the pull plate 35, under the elastic force of the spring 33, a certain reverse thrust will be applied to the insertion rod 34, and the insertion rod 34 will be pushed into the groove 37 to make it stuck, so that the collection box 22 can be fixed. In this process, the collection box 22 can be reduced to collect a lot of dust and impurities, which makes it inconvenient to clean it and difficult to disassemble the collection box 22. At this time, the fixing block 36 is inserted into the through hole 31 for fixing, thereby facilitating the disassembly and installation of the collection box 22, thereby improving the convenience of handling dust and impurities in the collection box 22.

[0026] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 4 and 5, a pair of suction cups 4 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the guide rail 12; the suction cups 4 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide rail 12 and have the same structure; a plurality of first magnetic blocks 41 are evenly fixedly connected to the side walls of the suction cups 4; a plurality of second magnetic blocks 42 are evenly fixedly connected to the side walls of the suction cups 4; the first magnetic blocks 41 and the second magnetic blocks 42 are located correspondingly; when in use, after the guide rail 12 is installed, the suction cups 4 will fully contact the side walls of the socket body 1 and generate a certain adsorption force on the side walls of the socket body 1. At the same time, when the suction cups 4 are fully in contact with the side walls of the socket body 1, When the first magnetic block 41 is in contact with the second magnetic block 42, the second magnetic block 42 can exert a certain reaction force on the first magnetic block 41 under the effect of repulsion between the two, so as to push the suction cup 4 toward the side wall of the socket body 1, so that the suction cup 4 and the side wall of the socket body 1 are more closely fitted. In this process, the poor fixing effect of the guide rail 12 can be reduced, which may cause the fixing rod 13 to slip out of the mounting block 11 easily when the guide rail 12 is accidentally pulled. At this time, the suction cup 4 is provided to further increase the fixing effect of the guide rail 12 on the wall of the socket body 1.

[0027] like Figure 3As shown, a pair of spring rods 5 are fixedly connected to the side walls of the mounting plate 3; the spring rods 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the mounting plate 3 and have the same structure; the ends of the spring rods 5 are fixedly connected to the limit blocks 51; when in use, when the fixing block 36 is inserted into the side walls of the through hole 31, the fixing block 36 will contact and squeeze the limit blocks 51 on both sides, and the spring rod 5 can be extended and retracted by squeezing the limit blocks 51. At this time, under the elastic force of the spring rod 5, a certain reaction force will be applied to the limit blocks 51, pushing the fixing block 36 to the middle of the through hole 31. At the same time, the fixing block 36 will also slide toward the middle of the limit blocks 51 on both sides, and finally be inserted into the side walls of the through hole 31. In this process, it can reduce the difficulty in aligning the two when the fixing block 36 is inserted into the side walls of the through hole 31, making the insertion process more cumbersome. At this time, through the cooperation of the spring rod 5 and the limit blocks 51, the fixing block 36 can be inserted into the side walls of the through hole 31.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, a pair of elastic sheets 6 are symmetrically fixed to the side wall of the pull plate 35; the elastic sheets 6 are arranged in an arc shape; when in use, when the fingers are placed on the side wall of the pull plate 35, the fingers will exert a certain pressure on the elastic sheets 6, and the elastic sheets 6 will produce a certain deformation under the pressure. When the elastic sheets 6 are deformed to a certain extent, the elastic sheets 6 will separate from the fingers, thereby locking the fingers on the side wall of the pull plate 35 and preventing the fingers from slipping off the side wall of the pull plate 35. In this process, when the fingers are placed on the side wall of the pull plate 35 and pulled, the problem of slipping off the side wall of the pull plate 35 due to the relatively smooth side wall of the pull plate 35 can be reduced. At this time, the elastic sheets 6 are arranged to increase the firmness of the fingers on the side wall of the pull plate 35.

[0029] like Figure 3 As shown, a baffle 7 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the collection box 22; the baffle 7 is arranged in an arc shape; when in use, when dust and impurities fall into the collection box 22, the baffle 7 can block the dust and impurities under the arc action of the baffle 7, and reduce their spilling out from the collection box 22 to the outside. In this process, it can reduce the accidental collision with the collection box 22, which causes the dust and impurities in the collection box 22 to spill out easily, thereby making it inconvenient to clean them. At this time, the baffle 7 is set to prevent the dust and impurities in the collection box 22 from spilling out.

[0030] During operation, by holding the guide rail 12, the fixing rod 13 is aligned with the hole on the side wall of the mounting block 11, and then the fixing rod 13 is inserted into the mounting block 11. At this time, a certain friction force is generated by the contact between the rubber sleeve 14 and the mounting block 11, thereby fixing the guide rail 12. Later, when the plug needs to be inserted into the socket body 1, the slider 15 is pulled to slide on the inner wall of the guide rail 12. When the clearance hole 17 is moved to the corresponding position, the plug can be inserted into the socket body 1 through the clearance hole 17. At this time, the arc generated during insertion will be blocked by the insulating plate 16, so that the creepage distance of the arc is increased and the contact with external flammable materials is reduced. When in use, the cleaning brush 2 will contact the socket body through the process of moving the insulating plate 16. When the cleaning brush 2 is in contact with the side wall of the socket body 1, the cleaning brush 2 can be used to clean the side wall of the socket body 1, and the dust and impurities attached to the side wall of the socket body 1 can be swept away, and then swept into the collection box 22. The dust and impurities can be collected by the collection box 22, and when the cleaning brush 2 is cleaning, multiple cleaning brushes 2 can be fixedly connected by the connecting rod 21 to be concentrated together. When in use, the staff puts their fingers on the side wall of the pull plate 35 and pulls it. When the insertion rod 34 is pulled to a suitable position, the collection box 22 is held and the fixing block 36 is inserted into the through hole 31. After the fixing block 36 passes through the through hole 31, the groove 37 will correspond to the position of the insertion rod 34. At this time, by loosening the pull plate 35, the insertion rod 34 will be pulled under the elastic force of the spring 33. 4 applies a certain counter-thrust force to push the insertion rod 34 into the groove 37 to make it stuck, so that the collection box 22 can be fixed. When in use, after the guide rail 12 is installed, the suction cup 4 will fully contact the side wall of the socket body 1 and generate a certain adsorption force on the side wall of the socket body 1. At the same time, when the suction cup 4 is fully in contact with the side wall of the socket body 1, the first magnetic block 41 will move closer to the second magnetic block 42. Under the repulsive effect of the two, the second magnetic block 42 can apply a certain reaction force to the first magnetic block 41 to push the suction cup 4 toward the side wall of the socket body 1, so that the suction cup 4 and the side wall of the socket body 1 are more closely fitted. When in use, when the fixing block 36 is inserted into the side wall of the through hole 31, the fixing block 36 will contact and squeeze the limit blocks 51 on both sides. The spring rod 5 can be extended and retracted by squeezing the limit block 51. At this time, the elastic force of the spring rod 5 will exert a certain reaction force on the limit block 51, pushing the fixed block 36 to the middle of the through hole 31. At the same time, the fixed block 36 will also slide to the middle of the limit blocks 51 on both sides, and finally be inserted into the side wall of the through hole 31. When in use, when placing a finger on the side wall of the pull plate 35, the finger will exert a certain pressure on the elastic sheet 6, and the elastic sheet 6 will produce a certain deformation under the pressure. When the elastic sheet 6 is deformed to a certain extent, the elastic sheet 6 will separate from the finger, thereby buckling the finger on the side wall of the pull plate 35 to prevent the finger from slipping off the side wall of the pull plate 35. When in use, when dust and impurities fall into the collection box 22, under the arc action of the baffle 7,The baffle 7 can block dust and impurities, reducing their spillage from the collection box 22 to the outside.
