Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of adapters, and more specifically to a plug structure. Background Art

[0002] The housing of the British standard adapter is provided with three pins. Due to the spatial position and length of the pins, the space required for the adapter to be stored is relatively large. In the existing design, two designs that can better solve this problem are adopted: 1. Chinese patent application number CN202023318208.8, a plug structure, which links the three pins by means of a connecting rod to achieve a synchronous folding and storage effect; 2. Chinese patent application number CN202120803158.8, a plug module and a power adapter, which link the three pins by means of a gear and a rack to achieve a synchronous folding and storage effect;

[0003] However, these two structures still have defects. In the first connecting rod structure, due to the instability of the connecting rod transmission (a movable gap must be left at the movable parts of the connecting rod at both ends, which will make the overall structure unstable and the accuracy relatively poor), the reliability of the entire structure during operation will become relatively poor. In the second gear structure, although the stability of the linkage can be guaranteed, the gear design needs to consider the direction conversion problem (the second document uses a double rack design facing up and down to solve this problem), the structure will become more complicated and the volume will be larger; a plug structure that can combine the advantages of both is needed.
