[0037] In order to further explain the technical means and effects adopted by the present invention to achieve the predetermined purpose of the utility model, the specific implementation method, structure, characteristics and effects of the present invention are described in detail below in combination with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0038] like Figure 1-4As shown, the following embodiment discloses an outdoor socket with a rainproof cover.

[0039] An outdoor socket with a rainproof cover, comprising:

[0040] The socket body 200 has at least two adjacent first plug-in surfaces 210 and second plug-in surfaces 220 with plug holes; the back of the socket body 200 is provided with a power cord 300 for drawing power from an external mains;

[0041] The rain cover 100 at least comprises a top cover 110, and a first side portion of the top cover 110 is hinged on the socket body 200;

[0042] The rainproof cover 100 has a closed state and an open state relative to the socket body 200;

[0043] When the rainproof cover 100 is in the closed state, a plug space a is reserved between the top cover 110 and the first plug-in surface 210 .

[0044] The above is the basic solution of this embodiment.

[0045] Specific reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the upward end face of the socket body 200 is set as the first plugging surface 210, the end face adjacent to the first plugging surface 210 and facing the front is set as the second plugging surface 220, and the side opposite to the second plugging surface 220 is the back, and the power cord 300 extends from the back to connect to the external AC power supply.

[0046] When the rain cover 100 is in the closed state, the top cover 110 is located above the first plug-in surface 210, and a plug space a is left between the top cover 110 and the first plug-in surface 210. The plug space a can accommodate at least the thickness of a plug. Figure 1 As shown;

[0047] When the rain cover 100 is in the open state, there is a larger space between the top cover 110 and the first plugging surface 210, which makes it easier for the plug to be plugged into the first plugging surface 210. However, in this state, the top cover 110 cannot provide waterproofing for the first plugging surface 210. Figure 2 shown.

[0048] In this embodiment, the specific structure of the rain cover 100 is set as follows: the rain cover 100 also includes side walls 120 formed on both sides of the top cover 110, and the side walls 120 are spliced ​​with two side portions of the socket body 200.

[0049] Specific reference Figure 3As shown, notches that can be spliced ​​with the side walls 120 are formed on the outer walls of the upper ends of the two side parts of the socket body 200. The side walls 120 are inserted into the notches to form a complete plane between the outer surface and the outer surface of the socket body 200.

[0050] In this embodiment, the socket body 200 includes a base, which includes a back panel 250 and a protective plate 240 connected to both sides of the back panel 250 and extending toward the same side, and the side wall 120 of the rain cover 100 is spliced ​​with the upper end of the protective plate 240.

[0051] The lower ends of the back plate 250 and the protection plate 240 are connected through the bottom plate 230, so that the base forms a shell with a receiving groove on the upper side and an opening at the front end.

[0052] In this embodiment, in order to connect the protective plate 240 and the rain cover 100 , a positioning piece 241 is extended from the upper end of the protective plate 240 , and the rain cover 100 and the base are directly positioned by the positioning piece 241 .

[0053] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the positioning piece 241 is extended and arranged at the upper end of the protective plate 240, and is formed with the inner wall of the protective plate 240, that is, the outer wall of the positioning piece 241 and the outer wall of the protective plate 240 are not on the same plane, and a gap is formed just to be consistent with the thickness of the side wall 120 of the rain cover 100;

[0054] When the rain cover 100 is covered with the socket body 200 , the side wall 120 fills the gap and forms a positioning connection with the inner protective plate 240 .

[0055] In this embodiment, a positioning groove 241.1 is provided on the positioning piece 241, and a positioning protrusion 121.1 cooperating with the positioning groove 241.1 is provided on the inner surface of the side wall 120 of the rainproof cover 100.

[0056] Preferably, in order to facilitate the opening and closing of the rain cover 100, in this embodiment, the positioning protrusion 121.1 is set as a protrusion on the arc surface, and the positioning groove 241.1 is also an arc-shaped concave part that matches the arc surface;

[0057] When the rain cover 100 is covered with the socket body 200, the positioning protrusion 121.1 is inserted into the positioning groove 241.1. In the absence of external force, the rain cover 100 will not open automatically. When the rain cover 100 needs to be opened, it is only necessary to apply upward force to the rain cover 100 to make the positioning protrusion 121.1 slide out of the positioning groove 241.1.

[0058] In still other embodiments, the positions of the positioning protrusion 121.1 and the positioning groove 241.1 may also be reversed.

[0059] In this embodiment, in order to ensure the rainproof effect, the first plug-in surface 210 and the second plug-in surface 220 are combined with the base to form a housing with a module cavity;

[0060] The upper end of the back plate 250 is higher than the first plug-in surface 210;

[0064] Based on the above arrangement, the two plug-in surfaces are completely protected inside the rainproof cover 100. When the socket is used outdoors, the first plug-in surface 210 is protected by the cover plate, and at the same time, the second plug-in surface 220 is protected by the cover plate and the protective plates 240 on both sides. When it rains, raindrops form a rain curtain at the front end of the cover plate without getting the plug inside the rain curtain wet.

[0065] In this embodiment, in order to ensure stable installation of the socket body 200, both sides of the first plug-in surface 210 are provided with mounting recesses 211 capable of accommodating the positioning piece 241, and the mounting recesses 211 are provided with buckle grooves 211.1;

[0066] The inner wall of the positioning piece 241 is provided with a buckle portion 241.2 which cooperates with the buckle groove 211.1.
