Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of plug and socket equipment, and in particular to a socket and an electrical connector. Background Art

[0002] Sockets are widely used in all aspects of people's lives. In the related art, sockets usually have a protective door. When a plug is inserted into the socket of the socket, the plug needs to push the protective door open first, and then be electrically connected to the socket. When the plug is pulled out of the socket, the protective door will reset itself and cover the socket to prevent dust and other foreign matter from falling into the socket and causing short circuits, and to prevent electric shock accidents caused by people accidentally touching the socket. The current protective door usually slides directly onto the panel of the socket, which may cause the protective door to get stuck during the sliding process, which is not conducive to the daily use of the socket. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present application aims to provide a socket and an electrical connector, by constructing a guide member on a bracket and making the connecting member of a protective door slidably connected to the guide member. Since the guide member and the elastic member are respectively located on opposite sides of the protective door, the force applied to the protective door during the sliding process can be more stable, thereby preventing the protective door from sliding jams due to one side being tilted.

[0004] An embodiment of the present application provides a socket, comprising:

[0005] panel;

[0010] In some embodiments, one of the guide member and the connecting member is a connecting shaft, and the other is a guiding groove, wherein the connecting shaft is slidably installed in the guiding groove.

[0011] In some embodiments, the connecting member includes a first connecting shaft constructed on the three-pole socket protection door, and the guide member includes a first guide groove constructed on the bracket, and the first connecting shaft is slidably installed in the first guide groove, wherein the three-pole socket protection door is provided with a first connecting portion on the side away from the first connecting shaft, and the first connecting portion is connected to the elastic member.

[0012] In some embodiments, a reinforcing column is constructed inside the three-pole jack protection door, and a reinforcing column is constructed inside the three-pole jack protection door. The reinforcing column extends along a direction from the first connecting axis to the first connecting portion, and the reinforcing column is configured to slide and fit the panel.

[0013] In some embodiments, the thickness of the three-pole socket protection door increases along the direction from both sides of the three-pole socket protection door to the reinforcement column.

[0014] In some embodiments, the length of the reinforcing column is L, satisfying: 7mm≤L≤8mm, and the width of the reinforcing column is D, satisfying: 1.2mm<D≤2mm.

[0015] In some embodiments, the protection door also includes a two-pole socket protection door, the protection door also includes a two-pole socket protection door, the connecting member also includes a second connecting shaft constructed on the two-pole socket protection door, the guide member also includes a second guide groove constructed on the bracket, the second connecting shaft is slidably installed in the second guide groove, wherein the two-pole socket protection door is constructed with a second connecting part on the side away from the second connecting shaft, and the second connecting part is connected to the elastic member.

[0016] In some embodiments, the thickness of the two-pole socket protection door increases along the direction from both sides to the middle of the two-pole socket protection door, and the two-pole socket protection door forms an abutment surface at the maximum thickness, and the abutment surface is configured to slide and fit the panel.

[0017] In some embodiments, the abutting surface is arc-shaped, or the abutting surface has at least a planar section, and the planar section is slidably fitted to the panel.

[0018] An embodiment of the present application also provides an electrical connector, including the socket as described above.

[0019] The socket and electrical connector provided in the embodiment of the present application are provided by installing a bracket set at an angle on a panel, and constructing a guide on the bracket to slide and connect the connector of the protective door. Since the protective door is connected to the elastic member on the other side of the guide, the opposite sides of the protective door can bear the force during the sliding process through the connector and the elastic member respectively, and limit the sliding path of the protective door.

[0036] For details, please refer to Figures 1 to 8 , an embodiment of the present application provides a socket. The socket includes a panel 10, a bracket 20, a protection door and an elastic member 30. The bracket 20 is connected to the panel 10 at an angle, and the bracket 20 is configured with a guide member. The protection door is slidably connected to the panel 10, and the protection door is configured with a connector, and the connector is slidably connected to the guide member. The elastic member 30 is connected to a side of the protection door away from the connector, and the elastic member 30 is configured to drive the protection door to reset. The protection door includes a three-pole socket protection door 40, and a groove 440 is configured on a side of the three-pole socket protection door 40 away from the connector.

[0037] In some embodiments, a bracket 20 arranged at an angle is installed on the panel 10, and a guide is constructed on the bracket 20 to slide and connect the connector of the protective door. Since the protective door is connected to the elastic member 30 on the other side of the guide, the opposite sides of the protective door can bear the forces during the sliding process through the connector and the elastic member 30 respectively, and define the sliding path of the protective door. In this way, it can be ensured that the protective door slides smoothly, and the protective door is prevented from sliding and jamming due to one side being tilted. Among them, based on the design of the groove 440, the three-pole jack protective door 40 can be quickly demolded after injection molding, so that the three-pole jack protective door 40 after molding can be quickly removed from the mold.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, the bracket 20 is vertically connected to the panel 10, and the bracket 20 is in a closed shape. The bracket 20 can enclose the upper surface of the panel 10 to form an installation area, and the protective door is slidably arranged in the installation area. Among them, a plug hole is configured on the panel 10, and the plug hole is located in the installation area, so that the protective door can cover the plug hole or expose the plug hole.

[0039] It is understandable that, based on the configuration of the jack on the panel 10, the protective door is slidably mounted on the panel 10. The protective door will have a first position that shields the jack and a second position that exposes the jack. When the plug is inserted into the jack, the protective door can slide from the first position to the second position under the action of the plug, so that the plug can be inserted into the jack after the jack is exposed. When the plug is pulled out of the jack, the protective door can slide from the second position to the first position under the action of the elastic member 30 to close the jack, thereby preventing dust and other foreign matter from falling into the jack and causing short circuits, etc., and can also prevent electric shock accidents caused by people accidentally touching the jack.

[0040] The groove 440 can be set as a U-shaped groove, a V-shaped groove, a semicircular groove, etc., to ensure that the groove 440 can facilitate the demoulding of the three-pole jack protection door 40.

[0041] In some embodiments, one of the guide member and the connecting member is a connecting shaft, and the other is a guiding groove. The connecting shaft is slidably installed in the guiding groove. It can be understood that by slidably installing the connecting shaft in the guiding groove, the guiding groove can be used to guide and limit the sliding of the connecting shaft. In this way, the protective door can be guided and limited, thereby preventing the protective door from tilting during the sliding process.

[0042] like Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting member includes a first connecting shaft 410 constructed on the three-pole socket protection door 40, and the guide member includes a first guide groove 210 constructed on the bracket 20, and the first connecting shaft 410 is slidably installed in the first guide groove 210, wherein a first connecting portion 420 is constructed on the side of the three-pole socket protection door 40 away from the first connecting shaft 410, and the first connecting portion 420 is connected to the elastic member 30.

[0043] It can be understood that the first connecting shaft 410 is inserted into the first guide groove 210, and the first connecting portion 420 is connected to the elastic member 30. Then the opposite sides of the three-pole jack protection door 40 can balance the force through the first connecting shaft 410 and the first connecting portion 420 respectively, so as to prevent one side of the three-pole jack protection door 40 from tilting up. And based on the two, the sliding direction of the three-pole jack protection door 40 is limited, so as to prevent the three-pole jack protection door 40 from sliding and jamming. At the same time, when assembling the three-pole jack protection door 40, the forces on both sides of the three-pole jack protection door 40 can also be balanced, which is beneficial to the installation of the three-pole jack protection door 40 and prevents one side of the three-pole jack protection door 40 from tilting up during the installation process or the sliding process.

[0044] like Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the first connecting shaft 410 may be a semi-cylindrical shaft, and the first guide groove 210 may be a guide notch constructed on the bracket 20. The bracket 20 may be integrally formed with the panel 10, and to facilitate demoulding during the molding process, the first guide groove 210 may extend to the bracket 20. The first guide groove 210 is arranged along the length direction of the bracket 20 so that the three-pole socket protection door 40 can slide horizontally.

[0045] Among them, the width of the first connecting shaft 410 matches the width of the first guide groove 210, so that the first connecting shaft 410 can be clamped in the first guide groove 210, and there is no gap between the first connecting shaft 410 and the groove wall of the first guide groove 210 to cause the three-pole jack protection door 40 to tilt up.

[0046] like Figure 6 As shown, the first connection part 420 includes a first connection plate 4210, and the first clamping part 4220 and the first sleeve part 4230 are respectively configured on opposite sides of the first connection plate 4210. The elastic member 30 is a spring, and one end of the spring is sleeved on the first sleeve part 4230. A first locking hole 230 is also configured on the bracket 20, and the first clamping part 4220 can be slidably clamped in the first locking hole 230. When the three-pole socket protection door 40 is located at a position to cover the socket, the first clamping part 4220 is clamped in the first locking hole 230; when the three-pole socket protection door 40 is located at a position to expose the socket, the first clamping part 4220 is away from the first locking hole 230.

[0047] Since the protection door is a three-pole socket protection door 40, a three-pole socket 110 is correspondingly provided on the panel 10. When the three-pole socket protection door 40 is located at its first position, the three-pole socket protection door 40 shields the three-pole socket 110. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the three-pole plug is inserted into the three-pole socket 110, the three-pole socket protection door 40 can slide from the first position to the second position under the action of the three-pole plug. In the sliding process, based on the cooperation between the first connecting shaft 410 and the first guide groove 210 and the cooperation between the first connecting member and the elastic member 30, the three-pole socket protection door 40 slides smoothly without tilting or jamming. When the three-pole socket protection door 40 is in the second position, the three-pole socket 110 is exposed, so that the three-pole plug can be inserted into the three-pole socket 110.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, in order to ensure that the three-pole socket protection door 40 can slide under the action of the three-pole plug, two inclined first drive surfaces 450 are constructed on the three-pole socket protection door 40, and the two first drive surfaces 450 have the same inclination direction, and the extension direction of the two first drive surfaces 450 is the same as the arrangement direction of the live wire plug and the neutral wire plug in the three-pole plug. Among them, only the live wire socket and the neutral wire socket of the three-pole socket 110 are shielded by the three-pole socket protection door 40, and the ground wire socket does not need to be protected. The panel 10 can be provided with a socket 130 at the ground wire socket, and the socket 130 is used to plug the ground wire plug in the three-pole plug.

[0049] The bracket 20 is provided with a stopper 140 adapted to the three-pole socket protection door 40 , and the stopper 140 is used to abut against the three-pole socket protection door 40 so that the three-pole socket protection door 40 can shield the three-pole socket 110 under the action of the elastic member 30 .

[0050] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a reinforcing column 430 is configured in the three-pole socket protection door 40, and the reinforcing column 430 extends in a direction from the first connecting axis 410 to the first connecting portion 420, and the reinforcing column 430 is configured to be slidably attached to the panel 10. In the direction from the two sides of the three-pole socket protection door 40 to the reinforcing column 430, the thickness of the three-pole socket protection door 40 increases gradually.

[0051] It can be understood that the reinforcing column 430 contacts the panel 10, and the three-pole socket protection door 40 slides to the panel 10 through the reinforcing column 430 during the left-right sliding process. As a result, a larger sliding contact area is provided between the three-pole socket protection door 40 and the panel 10, which reduces the wear of the three-pole socket protection door 40 during the sliding process, and reduces the possibility of deformation of the three-pole socket protection door 40 after long-term use.

[0052] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the reinforcing column 430 is a long strip structure, and the thickness of the three-pole socket protection door 40 increases from both sides of the three-pole socket protection door 40 to the reinforcing column 430, so that the reinforcing column 430 is the maximum thickness of the three-pole socket protection door 40. Therefore, the reinforcing column 430 with the maximum thickness can further extend the service life of the three-pole socket protection door 40.

[0053] Based on the increasing thickness of the three-pole jack protection door 40, the bottom surface (the side facing the panel 10) and the top surface (the side away from the panel 10) of the three-pole jack protection door 40 are both two inclined surfaces, wherein the angle between the inclined surface and the horizontal plane can be 10°. Based on the design of the angle, the three-pole jack protection door 40 will slide left and right only when the two PINs of the three-pole plug are inserted at the same time. When the three-pole plug is inserted with a single PIN, the three-pole jack protection door 40 will first be driven to rotate with the first connecting shaft 410 as the rotation center, so that the three-pole jack protection door 40 is in a state where one side is pressed down and the other side is tilted. At this time, the three-pole jack protection door 40 may slide only when the driving force is greater than 75N, so that the three-pole jack protection door 40 meets the safety requirements.

[0054] It should be noted that the tilting direction of the three-pole socket protection door 40 in the state where one side is pressed down and the other side is tilted is the length direction of the three-pole socket protection door 40. The tilting direction in the aforementioned "preventing the protection door from sliding and jamming due to tilting of one side" is the width direction of the three-pole socket protection door 40.

[0055] like Figure 6 As shown, the aforementioned groove 440 is located on a side of the three-pole socket protection door 40 away from the first connection axis 410 , and the groove 440 is recessed toward the direction of the reinforcement column 430 .

[0056] like Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the length of the reinforcing column 430 is L, which satisfies: 7mm≤L≤8mm (millimeter). It can be understood that, based on the fact that the length of the reinforcing column 430 can reach 7mm to 8mm, the length of the reinforcing column 430 is relatively long, so that there is a larger sliding contact area between the three-pole jack protection door 40 and the panel 10, reducing the wear of the three-pole jack protection door 40 during the sliding process.

[0057] For example, the length L of the reinforcing column 430 can be set to 7 mm, 7.5 mm, 8 mm, or any value therebetween.

[0058] like Figure 7As shown, in some embodiments, the width of the reinforcing column 430 is D, which satisfies: 1.2 mm < D ≤ 2 mm. It can be understood that, based on the fact that the width of the reinforcing column 430 can reach 1.2 mm to 2 mm, the width of the reinforcing column 430 is relatively large, so that there is a larger sliding contact area between the three-pole jack protection door 40 and the panel 10, reducing the wear of the three-pole jack protection door 40 during the sliding process.

[0059] For example, the width D of the reinforcing column 430 may be set to 1.3 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.8 mm, 2 mm, or any value therebetween.

[0060] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the protection door also includes a two-pole socket protection door 50, the connecting member also includes a second connecting shaft 510 constructed on the two-pole socket protection door 50, and the guide member also includes a second guide groove 220 constructed on the bracket 20, and the second connecting shaft 510 is slidably installed in the second guide groove 220, wherein a second connecting portion 520 is constructed on the side of the two-pole socket protection door 50 away from the second connecting shaft 510, and the second connecting portion 520 is connected to the elastic member 30.

[0061] It can be understood that the second connecting shaft 510 is inserted into the second guide groove 220, and the second connecting portion 520 is connected to the elastic member 30. Then the opposite sides of the two-pole jack protection door 50 can balance the force through the second connecting shaft 510 and the second connecting portion 520 respectively, so as to prevent the two-pole jack protection door 50 from tilting on one side. And based on the two, the sliding direction of the two-pole jack protection door 50 is limited, so as to prevent the two-pole jack protection door 50 from sliding and getting stuck. At the same time, when assembling the two-pole jack protection door 50, the forces on both sides of the two-pole jack protection door 50 can also be balanced, which is beneficial to the installation of the two-pole jack protection door 50 and prevents the two-pole jack protection door 50 from tilting on one side during the installation process or the sliding process.

[0062] like Figure 4 and Figure 8 As shown, the second connecting shaft 510 may be a semi-cylindrical shaft, and the second guide groove 220 may be a guide notch constructed on the bracket 20. In particular, based on the integral molding of the bracket 20 and the panel 10, in order to facilitate demoulding during the molding process, the second guide groove 220 may extend to the bracket 20. In particular, the second guide groove 220 is arranged along the length direction of the bracket 20 so that the two-pole socket protection door 50 can slide horizontally.

[0063] The width of the second connecting shaft 510 matches the width of the second guide groove 220, so that the second connecting shaft 510 can be clamped in the second guide groove 220, and there is no gap between the second connecting shaft 510 and the groove wall of the second guide groove 220 to cause the two-pole socket protection door 50 to tilt up.

[0064] like Figure 8 As shown, the second connecting portion 520 includes a second connecting plate 5210, and the second connecting plate 5210 is respectively provided with a second clamping portion 5220 and a second sleeve portion 5230 on two opposite sides. Wherein, based on the elastic member 30 being a spring, the first end of the spring is sleeved on the first sleeve portion 4230, and the second end of the spring is sleeved on the second sleeve portion 5230. A second locking hole is also configured on the bracket 20, and the second clamping portion 5220 can be slidably clamped in the second locking hole. When the two-pole socket protection door 50 is located at a position shielding the socket, the second clamping portion 5220 is clamped in the second locking hole; when the two-pole socket protection door 50 is located at a position exposing the socket, the second clamping portion 5220 is away from the second locking hole.

[0065] The first connecting plate 4210 is arranged opposite to the second connecting plate 5210. The first sleeve portion 4230 and the second sleeve portion 5230 are respectively located on the side of the first connecting plate 4210 and the second connecting plate 5210 facing each other. The spring is sleeved between the first sleeve portion 4230 and the second sleeve portion 5230. The first clamping portion 4220 and the second clamping portion 5220 are respectively located on the side of the first connecting plate 4210 and the second connecting plate 5210 away from each other.

[0066] Since the protection door is a two-pole socket protection door 50, a two-pole socket 120 is correspondingly provided on the panel 10. When the two-pole socket protection door 50 is located at its first position, the two-pole socket protection door 50 shields the two-pole socket 120. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, when the two-pole plug is inserted into the two-pole socket 120, the two-pole socket protection door 50 can slide from the first position to the second position under the action of the two-pole plug. In the sliding process, based on the cooperation between the second connecting shaft 510 and the second guide groove 220 and the cooperation between the second connecting member and the elastic member 30, the two-pole socket protection door 50 slides smoothly without tilting or jamming. When the two-pole socket protection door 50 is in the second position, the two-pole socket 120 is exposed, so that the two-pole plug can be inserted into the two-pole socket 120.

[0067] like Figure 8 As shown, in order to ensure that the two-pole socket protection door 50 can slide under the action of the two-pole plug, two inclined second driving surfaces 540 are constructed on the two-pole socket protection door 50, and the inclination directions of the two second driving surfaces 540 are the same, and the extension directions of the two second driving surfaces 540 are the same as the arrangement directions of the live wire plug and the neutral wire plug in the two-pole plug.

[0068] The diode socket protection door 50 is also provided with an avoidance area 550 , which can be used to avoid the aforementioned socket 130 to prevent the socket 130 from hindering the sliding of the diode socket protection door 50 .

[0069] Based on the first connection part 420 and the second connection part 520 being respectively connected to the opposite ends of the elasticity, the spring can always be in a compressed state, so that the spring can apply force to the three-pole jack protection door 40 and the two-pole jack protection door 50 based on the first connection part 420 and the second connection part 520, so that the three-pole jack 110 and the two-pole jack 120 can be respectively shielded by the three-pole jack protection door 40 and the two-pole jack protection door 50.

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown, the frame is retracted inward at the position of the spring, that is, both sides of the frame at the position of the spring are recessed inward, and the recessed areas on both sides are respectively configured with the aforementioned first locking hole 230 and the second locking hole.

[0071] like Figure 5 As shown, the socket further includes a base 60, and the panel 10 is mounted on the base 60. A three-pole electrical connection portion 610 and a two-pole electrical connection portion 620 are configured on the base 60 to be electrically connected to a three-pole plug and a two-pole plug, respectively. The live wire connection portion of the three-pole electrical connection portion 610 can be connected to the live wire connection portion of the two-pole electrical connection portion 620, and the neutral wire connection portion of the three-pole electrical connection portion 610 can be connected to the neutral wire connection portion of the two-pole electrical connection portion 620.

[0072] In order to realize the connection between the base 60 and the panel 10, a first connection hole 630 may be constructed on the base 60, and a second connection hole 150 may be correspondingly constructed on the panel 10. When the panel 10 is covered on the base 60, the first connection hole 630 is aligned with the second connection hole 150, and the fastener is inserted into the first connection hole 630 and the second connection hole 150 to realize the detachable connection between the base 60 and the panel 10, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the internal electrical connection part.

[0073] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the thickness of the diode socket protection door 50 increases along the direction from both sides to the middle of the diode socket protection door 50, and the diode socket protection door 50 forms an abutment surface 530 at the maximum thickness, and the abutment surface 530 is configured to slide and fit the panel 10.

[0074] It is understandable that the contact surface 530 contacts the panel 10, and the diode socket protection door 50 slides left and right to fit the panel 10 through the contact surface 530. Since the contact surface 530 is located at the maximum thickness of the diode socket protection door 50, the contact surface 530 can be worn for a longer time, thereby extending the service life of the diode socket protection door 50.

[0075] Based on the increasing thickness of the two-pole jack protection door 50, the bottom surface (the side facing the panel 10) and the top surface (the side away from the panel 10) of the two-pole jack protection door 50 are both two inclined surfaces, wherein the angle between the inclined surface and the horizontal plane can be 10°. Based on the design of the angle, the two-pole jack protection door 50 will slide left and right only when the two PINs of the two-pole plug are inserted at the same time. When the two-pole plug is inserted with a single PIN, the two-pole jack protection door 50 will be driven to rotate with the second connecting shaft 510 as the rotation center, so that the two-pole jack protection door 50 is in a state where one side is pressed down and the other side is tilted. At this time, the two-pole jack protection door 50 may slide only when the driving force is greater than 75N, so that the two-pole jack protection door 50 meets the safety requirements.

[0076] It should be noted that the tilting direction of the diode socket protection door 50 in the state where one side is pressed down and the other side is tilted is the length direction of the diode socket protection door 50. The tilting direction in the aforementioned “preventing the protection door from sliding and jamming due to tilting of one side” is the width direction of the diode socket protection door 50.

[0077] like Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the abutting surface 530 is arc-shaped, or the abutting surface 530 has at least a planar section, and the planar section is slidably fitted to the panel 10.

[0078] Based on the design of the arc or plane segment, a larger sliding contact area can be provided between the abutting surface 530 and the panel 10, thereby reducing the wear of the diode socket protection door 50 during the sliding process and reducing the possibility of deformation of the diode socket protection door 50 after long-term use.

[0079] The embodiment of the present application further provides an electrical connector, which includes the socket in the above embodiment.

[0080] In some embodiments, a bracket 20 arranged at an angle is installed on the panel 10, and a guide is constructed on the bracket 20 to slide the connecting piece of the protection door. Since the protection door is connected to the elastic member 30 on the other side of the guide, the opposite sides of the protection door can bear the force during the sliding process through the connecting member and the elastic member 30 respectively, and define the sliding path of the protection door. In this way, the protection door can be ensured to slide smoothly, and the protection door can be prevented from sliding jamming due to one side being tilted.

[0081] The electrical connector includes plug and socket equipment, adapters, household appliances, etc.
