[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] The utility model provides Figure 1-5 A compact socket is shown, comprising a socket terminal 1, a shell 2 for installing the socket terminal 1 is arranged on the outside of the socket terminal 1, a plug 4 for connecting to a power source is arranged on the back of the shell 2, and an anti-accidental touch mechanism for shielding the socket terminal 1 is arranged on the front of the shell 2. The anti-accidental touch mechanism comprises an anti-accidental touch component and a locking component. The anti-accidental touch component comprises a shielding member and an anti-touch member. The shielding member comprises a cover plate 6. The anti-touch member comprises an anti-touch layer 13. The anti-touch layer 13 is arranged on the front of the cover plate 6.

[0022] Specifically, a control switch 5 for controlling the power supply of the socket terminal 1 is disposed on the top of the housing 2 , and a connecting wire 3 for electrically connecting the housing 2 and the plug 4 is disposed on the back of the housing 2 .

[0023] Furthermore, the socket terminal 1, the housing 2, the connecting wire 3, the plug 4 and the control switch 5 constitute an existing compact socket. By electrically connecting the plug 4 to the power source, the socket terminal 1 is used to plug into the matching plug connector of the electrical device itself.

[0024] Specifically, the back of the anti-touch layer 13 is fixedly connected to the front of the cover plate 6, the top of the cover plate 6 is hinged to the front of the shell 2, a plurality of triangular pyramids are arranged on the surface of the anti-touch layer 13, and a groove for covering the socket terminal 1 is opened on the back of the cover plate 6.

[0025] Furthermore, the anti-touch layer 13 is composed of a plurality of triangular pyramids, the tips of which are facing the side away from the socket terminal 1. The tips of the triangular pyramids are polished to prevent the skin of a child from being pierced. When a child's hand accidentally touches the anti-touch layer 13, the polished tips of the triangular pyramids only cause stinging to the child's hand. The child's physiological reaction will prompt the child to retract his arm and no longer touch the anti-touch layer 13, thereby preventing the child from trying to open the cover 6.

[0026] Specifically, the locking assembly includes a locking piece and a plug-in piece for installing the locking piece, the plug-in piece is arranged at the bottom end of the cover plate 6, the top end of the socket terminal 1 is provided with an insertion groove 11 for inserting the plug-in piece, the plug-in piece includes an insertion block 7, the top end of the insertion block 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the cover plate 6, the interior of the insertion block 7 is provided with a cavity for installing the locking piece, the locking piece includes a locking block 8, the bottom end of the inner wall of the cavity is provided with an insertion hole, the locking block 8 is plugged with the insertion hole, the top end of the locking block 8 is fixedly connected with a baffle 9 for limiting the movement of the locking block 8, the top end of the baffle 9 is provided with an elastic block 10 for pushing the baffle 9 to move, and the bottom end of the insertion groove 11 is provided with a locking hole 12 for inserting the locking block 8.

[0027] Furthermore, the cover plate 6 is connected to the socket terminal 1 by a hinge, and an arc-shaped end is provided at one end of the plug block 7 away from the cover plate 6, so as to facilitate the insertion connection between the plug block 7 and the insertion groove 11, and the bottom end of the cover plate 6 and the top end of the plug block 7 are fixedly connected by hot melting, and the vertical dimension of the plug block 7 is 0.98 times the vertical dimension of the insertion groove 11, the dimension of the locking block 8 is 0.98 times the dimension of the insertion hole, the dimension of the insertion hole is the same as the dimension of the locking hole 12, the dimension of the baffle plate 9 is 1.3 times the dimension of the insertion hole, and the elastic block 10 is an elastic rubber block, and the elastic block 10 and the baffle plate 9 are both arranged in the cavity, and the elastic block 10 is always in a compressed state in the cavity. When the cover 6 is locked with the housing 2, the locking block 8 is first pressed to move toward the insertion block 7, and then the cover 6 is rotated. The cover 6 drives the insertion block 7 to be inserted into the insertion groove 11. Under the restoring force of the elastic block 10, the baffle 9 is pushed to drive the locking block 8 to be inserted into the locking hole 12, thereby limiting the movement of the insertion block 7 and realizing the function of the cover 6 covering the socket terminal 1. When the locking block 8 is inserted into the locking hole 12, the bottom end of the locking block 8 is 0.1 mm away from the bottom end of the locking hole 12. The locking block 8 and the locking hole 12 are both arranged at the bottom of the housing 2, which can prevent children from accidentally touching the locking block 8 and causing the cover 6 to rotate and open.
