[0023] A positioning structure, which is arranged on the electronic timer body 1 and is used to position the plug 3;

[0024] Among them, the positioning structure includes a first slot 5, which is arranged on the back of the electronic timer body 1, and a fixed shaft 6 is installed inside the first slot 5. A clamping block 7 and a reset spring 8 are sleeved on the outer surface of the fixed shaft 6, and a connecting frame 9 is installed on the bottom surface of the clamping block 7. An extrusion piece 11 is sleeved inside the electronic timer body 1, and a pressure plate 12 is installed on one side of the extrusion piece 11.

[0025] Through the cooperation between the plug 3 and the electronic timer body 1, the plug 3 can be embedded in the back of the electronic timer body 1. In the process of the plug 3 being embedded in the back of the electronic timer body 1, the plug 3 will squeeze the chamfer of the block 7, so that the block 7 will move along the outer surface of the fixed axis 6. At this time, since the reset spring 8 is in a compressed state, an elastic force will be applied to the block 7, so that the plug 3 can be limited by the cooperation between the block 7 and the plug 3, and then the plug 3 and the electronic timer body 1 can be fixed when the height of the socket is high, and when it is connected to a higher socket, the electronic timer body 1 can be prevented from shaking due to the influence of the cable 2.

[0026] The return spring 8 is elastically supported between the first notch 5 and the clamping block 7 .

[0027] Through the design of the reset spring 8, the block 7 has good elastic reset performance. At this time, since the reset spring 8 is in a compressed state, an elastic force is applied to the block 7, so that the fit between the block 7 and the second notch 10 can be tighter.

[0028] The end of the clamping block 7 is provided with a chamfer, and the clamping block 7 is movably engaged with the second notch 10 .

[0029] Through the cooperation between the block 7 and the fixed shaft 6, the block 7 can move along the outer surface of the fixed shaft 6. At the same time, through the cooperation between the block 7 and the second slot 10, the plug 3 is limited and fixed on the back of the electronic timer body 1.

[0031] Through the cooperation between the extrusion piece 11 and the electronic timer body 1, when the extrusion piece 11 is pressed, the pressure plate 12 will squeeze the connecting frame 9, so that the block 7 can be driven by the connecting frame 9 to move along the outer surface of the fixed shaft 6 and separate from the second slot 10.

[0032] The end of the pressing plate 12 is provided with a chamfer, and the pressing plate 12 is in extrusion contact with the connecting frame 9 .

[0033] By setting the chamfer at the end of the pressing plate 12, when the pressing plate 12 presses the connecting frame 9, its inclined surface will press the connecting frame 9, so that the block 7 can be driven to separate from the second notch 10 through the connecting frame 9, thereby facilitating the release of the limit of the plug 3.

[0034] The working principle and use process of this utility model:

[0035] When the socket is at a higher position, the plug 3 can be embedded in the back of the electronic timer body 1 and pressed. In the process of the plug 3 being embedded in the back of the electronic timer body 1, the plug 3 will squeeze the chamfer of the block 7, so that the block 7 will move along the outer surface of the fixed axis 6. At this time, since the reset spring 8 is in a compressed state, an elastic force will be applied to the block 7, so that the plug 3 can be limited by the cooperation between the block 7 and the plug 3, and then the plug 3 and the electronic timer body 1 can be fixed when the height of the socket is high, and when it is connected to a higher socket, the cable 2 can be prevented from being affected by external force and causing the electronic timer body 1 to shake.
