[0026] The realization of the purpose, functional features and advantages of the utility model will be further explained in conjunction with embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the scheme 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 of 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.

[0028] It should be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, top, bottom, side...) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0029] It should also be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed on" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time.

[0030] In addition, the descriptions involving "first", "second", etc. in the embodiments of the present invention are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or suggesting their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features.

[0031] In view of the technical defects existing in the related art, this embodiment provides a socket. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the socket of this embodiment includes a shell and a telescopic sleeve 200 .

[0032] The housing includes two oppositely disposed panels 110 and a plurality of side walls 120 surrounding the panels 110. The housing of this embodiment may have different shapes according to the specific shape of the panels 110. For example, when the panel 110 is circular, the side surface surrounding the panel 110 is a curved surface, so that the shape of the entire housing is cylindrical. For another example, when the panel 110 is square or rectangular, there are four side walls 120, so that the shape of the entire housing is a cube or a cuboid.

[0033] One of the two panels 110 is provided with a socket 111 for inserting an external plug. Of course, if there are enough powered components in the housing, then both panels 110 can be provided with sockets 111 to form a double-sided socket. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the telescopic sleeve 200 of this embodiment is sleeved on a plurality of side walls 120, and the telescopic sleeve 200 can be telescoped along the side walls 120 to cover the socket 111. Preferably, the telescopic sleeve 200 of this embodiment is in the form of an accordion cover, so that after being stretched along the side walls 120 of the housing, it can also bend in other directions.

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, during the use of the socket of this embodiment, if waterproof measures need to be taken for the socket, the entire shell is directly covered by stretching the telescopic sleeve 200, and the telescopic sleeve 200 can also be stretched along the direction of the external plug connected to the shell, thereby covering the shell and the external plug connected to the shell together, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the socket.

[0035] The telescopic cover 200 of this embodiment can be made of flexible or elastic materials. For example, a thin plastic film or a silicone film can be used to make the telescopic cover 200 of this embodiment. However, when an elastic material is used to make the telescopic cover 200, the telescopic cover 200 will automatically stretch under the action of its own elastic restoring force, which may hinder the normal use of the socket. Figure 4 As shown, the socket of this embodiment further includes a baffle 300, which is disposed on the panel 110 and movably connected to the panel 110. When the baffle 300 and the panel 110 move relative to each other, the baffle 300 protrudes from the side wall 120, thereby abutting against one end of the telescopic sleeve 200 in the contracted state, thereby limiting the telescopic sleeve 200 from automatically stretching due to its own elastic restoring force.

[0036] Exemplarily, the baffle 300 can be rotatably connected to the panel 110. According to different rotatable connection modes of the baffle 300, when the baffle 300 and the panel 110 rotate relative to each other, one or more sides of the baffle 300 can protrude from the side wall 120 and abut against one end of the telescopic sleeve 200. For example: one end of the baffle 300 is rotatably connected to the edge of the panel 110. At this time, as the baffle 300 and the panel 110 rotate relative to each other, only one end of the baffle 300 can protrude from the side wall 120, thereby limiting the extension of the telescopic sleeve 200. Another example: a through hole is provided on the baffle 300, and the through hole is connected to the socket 111 so that an external plug can be normally connected to the socket 111. Among them, the baffle 300 moves relative to the panel 110 along the circumference of the socket 111. At this time, according to the shape of the baffle 300, there can be multiple ends of the baffle 300 protruding from the side wall 120.

[0037] In order to realize the rotational connection between the panel 110 and the baffle 300, an annular groove is provided on the side of the panel 110 facing the baffle 300, and a protrusion that is adapted to and can be inserted into the annular groove is provided on the side of the baffle 300 facing the panel 110. Of course, according to actual needs, the annular groove can also be provided on the baffle 300, and the protrusion can be provided on the panel 110, which is not limited here. When the annular groove is formed, it can be a single annular groove formed continuously, or it can be a plurality of annular grooves arranged at intervals, as long as the baffle 300 can rotate along the circumference of the socket 111.

[0038] The panel 110 of this embodiment may be a regular polygon, with a socket 111 disposed in the middle thereof. An annular groove is disposed around the socket 111 and is formed along the circumference of the socket 111. The baffle 300 is consistent in shape and size with the panel 110, so that when the baffle 300 is rotated to be located within the edge of the panel 110, the telescopic sleeve 200 can be telescoped.

[0039] For example, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the baffle 300 and the panel 110 are both square. A through hole is provided in the center of the baffle 300, and the through hole is connected to the socket 111 so that an external plug can be connected to the socket 111 through the through hole. Figure 1 As shown, when there is no need to limit the position of the telescopic sleeve 200, the baffle 300 has the same shape and size as the panel 110 and is completely aligned, which improves the appearance of the socket. When the telescopic sleeve 200 needs to be limited, the baffle 300 and the panel 110 rotate relative to each other, so that the four end corners of the baffle 300 protrude from the side wall 120, which can be used to position the telescopic sleeve 200.

[0040] Based on the above examples, in some optional examples, the baffle 300 and the panel 110 may be in the shape of a regular pentagon, a regular hexagon, an equilateral triangle or other different polygonal shapes.

[0041] In addition, since the baffle 300 is the same size as the panel 110, it can also prevent mistakes during assembly, thereby improving the assembly and debugging of the socket. Moreover, the baffle 300 and the panel 110 of the same shape and size have a tighter seal and airtightness, which is conducive to achieving dustproof and waterproof sealing effects.

[0042] In some embodiments, in order to adapt to multiple external plugs, the panel 110 can also be configured as a long strip. Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the panel 110 of this embodiment is rectangular, and a plurality of sockets 111 are arranged along the length direction of the panel 110. For multiple external plugs to connect. Among them, a sliding connection is formed between the baffle 300 and the panel 110 of this embodiment. When there is no need to limit the telescopic sleeve 200, the entire baffle 300 is located on the panel 110, so as not to hinder the free extension of the telescopic sleeve 200. When the telescopic sleeve 200 needs to be limited, the baffle 300 slides relative to the panel 110 in a direction away from the shell, so as to protrude from the side wall 120, so that a part of the baffle 300 is located on the telescopic path of the telescopic sleeve 200, so that the telescopic sleeve 200 can be positioned.

[0043] For example, in order to improve the flatness of the socket surface, a slide groove 112 is provided on one side of the panel 110, and the baffle 300 can be slidably installed in the slide groove 112, so as to protrude from the side or be received in the slide groove 112. Of course, in order to improve the positioning effect of the telescopic sleeve 200, the socket may include a plurality of baffles 300. Corresponding to the plurality of baffles 300, the slide groove 112 may be provided at each edge of the panel 110, so that when the telescopic sleeve 200 is positioned, the plurality of baffles 300 protrude from the side wall 120, so as to improve the positioning stability of the telescopic sleeve 200.

[0044] When a plurality of sockets 111 are provided on the panel 110, in addition to the sliding connection, a rotational connection can also be formed between the baffle 300 and the panel 110. In some optional examples, the panel 110 is rectangular, and a plurality of baffles 300 are provided. Corresponding to the rectangular panel 110, the socket has four baffles 300, and the four baffles 300 are respectively located at the four edges of the panel 110. Each baffle 300 is rotationally connected to the panel 110. When there is no need to limit the telescopic sleeve 200, the entire baffle 300 is located on the panel 110, so that the telescopic sleeve 200 can be freely stretched as needed. When the telescopic sleeve 200 needs to be limited, each baffle 300 is rotated so that a portion of the four baffles 300 protrudes from the side wall 120, so that the telescopic sleeve 200 can be positioned.

[0045] Furthermore, in order to improve the waterproof performance of the socket of this embodiment, a hydrophobic coating is applied to the outer side of the telescopic sleeve 200. Figure 6 As shown, when the telescopic cover 200 is stretched to block the socket 111 of the socket and the plug connected to the socket 111, since the outer side of the telescopic cover 200 is coated with a hydrophobic coating, the moisture in contact with the telescopic cover 200 can be quickly lost from the surface of the telescopic cover 200 without penetrating into the inside of the telescopic cover 200. The hydrophobic coating is a special surface treatment that makes it hydrophobic, and even if the liquid contacts the surface, it will quickly form water droplets and slide off. The hydrophobic coating is usually made of a high molecular melt polymer, such as polyolefin, polycarbonate, polyamide, polyacrylonitrile, polyester. In addition, fluorine-free acrylates, molten paraffin, etc. can also obtain super hydrophobicity in combination with certain process technologies.

[0046] The hydrophobic coating disposed on the outside of the telescopic sleeve 200 can effectively prevent moisture from penetrating into the inside of the socket, reduce the amount of moisture entering the socket 111, and thus prevent safety issues such as internal short circuits and leakage. Moreover, due to the presence of the hydrophobic coating, it is difficult for liquid to stay on the surface of the telescopic sleeve 200, so it can be easily wiped with a dry cloth or paper towel to remove dust and stains on the surface, keeping the telescopic sleeve 200 clean. In addition, the hydrophobic coating not only improves the waterproof performance and easy cleaning of the telescopic sleeve 200, but also enhances its durability, prolongs its service life, and reduces maintenance costs.

[0047] The above description is only a partial or preferred embodiment of the present invention. Neither the text nor the drawings can limit the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the overall concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
