Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] Sockets, also known as power sockets and switch sockets. Sockets refer to seats that can be inserted with one or more circuit wirings, through which various wirings can be inserted, so that it is convenient to connect with other circuits. The connection and disconnection between the circuit and the copper bar can ultimately achieve the connection and disconnection of this part of the circuit. In the prior art, the conductive parts in the socket are generally made of pure copper (also known as red copper), which has good conductivity, but due to its high price, the production cost is high when producing large quantities of sockets.
[0003] In order to reduce production costs, a Chinese patent with application number CN202021242354.4 discloses a current lead socket device, including a male socket and a female socket, the male socket is installed inside a magnet, and both the male socket and the female socket are made of beryllium bronze material.
[0004] However, the above-mentioned socket device is made of bronze, and the conductive part in the plug has a clip, which is conductive after the clip is clamped and abutted against the plug. Since the clip is made of bronze, it does not have the same mechanical strength as the copper used on the market, especially the resilience of the clip. After long-term use, the clamping tightness of the clip is poor, which leads to a decrease in the stability of the electrical connection between the plug and the clip. Furthermore, if the clip and the plug are not clamped and abutted, there will be arc sparks between the clip and the plug, which will cause safety risks.
[0005] Therefore, a socket is provided which has a higher clamping strength for the plug by the clip, can simultaneously solve the cost problem and can also improve the safety performance. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of the present disclosure is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and to provide a socket and a socket strip device that has a higher clamping strength for the plug, can simultaneously solve the cost problem and can also improve safety performance.
[0007] The purpose of this disclosure is achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0010] The socket further comprises a rebound compensation member, the conductive metal component comprises a bronze conductive strip and a bronze contact member, the bronze contact member comprises a bottom plate and two clips, the two clips are respectively fixedly connected to two ends of the bottom plate, the bottom plate is electrically connected to the bronze conductive strip, and the two clips are bent towards each other to form a ferrule area;
[0011] The rebound compensating member is sleeved outside the ferrule area and is respectively connected to the two clips, and the head and tail ends of the rebound compensating member are connected.
[0012] In one of the embodiments, a stamped limiting protrusion is provided on the outer side of each of the clips, and the stamped limiting protrusion is connected to the rebound compensation piece.
[0013] In one embodiment, the rebound compensation member is a spring coil.
[0014] In one of the embodiments, the thickness of the rebound compensation piece is 5 mm-10 mm.

When the plug passes through the plug hole and abuts against the two clips, the two clips are forced to expand outward, and the synchronous rebound compensating piece also expands outward, so that the plug abuts against the two clips; when the plug is pulled out of the two clips, the rebound compensating piece shrinks inward due to its elasticity, and the two clips also shrink inward synchronously.

[0032] In order to better understand the technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments:
[0033] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a socket 10 of an embodiment includes an injection molded lower shell 100, an injection molded upper shell 200 and a conductive metal component 300, wherein the injection molded upper shell 200 is provided with a plug hole 210, and the conductive metal component 300 is disposed between the injection molded lower shell 100 and the injection molded upper shell 200, and the injection molded lower shell 100 and the injection molded upper shell 200 are connected, and the socket 10 also includes a rebound compensation member 400, and the conductive metal component 300 includes a bronze conductive strip 310 and a bronze contact member 320, the bronze contact member 320 includes a bottom plate 322 and two clips 321, the two clips 321 are fixedly connected to the two ends of the bottom plate 322, the bottom plate 322 is electrically connected to the bronze conductive strip 310, the two clips 321 are bent toward each other to form a ring area 321a, the rebound compensation member 400 is sleeved outside the ring area 321a and is respectively connected to the two clips 321, and the rebound compensation member 400 is connected at both ends.
[0034] In this embodiment, the bronze conductive strip 310 and the bronze contact 320 are both made of bronze. Compared with the traditional technology using red copper, this application can effectively reduce costs. Further, the bronze conductive strip 310 is installed on the injection molded lower shell 100, the bottom sheet 322 is connected to the bronze conductive strip 310, and the two ends of the bottom sheet 322 are respectively connected to the two clips 321. There is a plug-in gap between the two clips 321. The plug passes through the plug hole 210 and enters the plug-in gap, and respectively contacts the two clips 321, so that the plug is connected to the conductive metal component 300. Furthermore, when the plug passes through the plug hole 210 and abuts against the two clips 321, the two clips 321 are forced to expand outward, and the synchronous rebound compensating member 400 also expands outward, so that the plug abuts against the two clips 321; when the plug is pulled out of the two clips 321, the rebound compensating member 400 shrinks inward due to elasticity, and the two clips 321 also shrink inward synchronously, so that the clamping strength of the two clips 321 on the plug is improved by the rebound compensating member 400. In this embodiment, the bronze conductive strip 310 and the bottom plate 322 can be connected by welding or riveting.
[0035] In the above-mentioned socket 10, the conductive metal component 300 is arranged between the injection molded lower shell 100 and the injection molded upper shell 200, the bronze conductive strip 310 is connected to the bottom plate 322, the two clips 321 are respectively connected to the two ends of the bottom plate 322, the two clips 321 are bent toward each other to form a ring area 321a, and the rebound compensation member 400 is sleeved in the ring area 321a and is respectively connected to the two clips 321. When the plug passes through the plug hole 210 and abuts against the two clips 321, the two clips 321 are forced to expand outwards, and the synchronous rebound compensation member 400 also expands outwards, so that the plug abuts against the two clips 321; when the plug is pulled out of the two clips 321, the rebound compensation member 400 shrinks inwards due to its elasticity, and the two clips 321 also shrink inwards synchronously. The rebound compensating member 400 improves the clamping strength of the two clips 321 on the plug, and improves the safety performance of the socket 10 . Furthermore, since the clips 321 are made of bronze, the production cost of the socket 10 is reduced.
[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a stamping limit protrusion 321b is provided on the outer side of each of the clips 321, and the stamping limit protrusion 321b is connected to the rebound compensating member 400. It can be understood that the stamping limit protrusion 321b is provided on the outer side of the clip 321, and the stamping limit protrusion 321b is connected to the rebound compensating member 400, that is, the stamping limit protrusion 321b supports and drags the rebound compensating member 400, further strengthening the connection strength between the rebound compensating member 400 and the two clips 321.
[0037] In one embodiment, the rebound compensating member 400 is a spring coil. It is understood that the spring coil has elastic properties. When the plug enters the insertion gap between the two clips 321, the plug exerts an outward force on the two clips 321 to expand the two clips 321 outward. Since the spring coil is sleeved between the two clips 321, the spring coil also expands outward synchronously. Similarly, when the plug is pulled out of the two clips 321, the spring coil rebounds and resets to restore the two clips 321 to their original positions.
[0038] In one embodiment, the thickness of the rebound compensating member 400 is 5 mm to 10 mm. In this embodiment, the thickness of the rebound compensating member 400 is 10 mm.
[0039] In one embodiment, the springback compensating member 400 is welded to the two clips respectively. In this embodiment, the springback compensating member 400 is welded to the two clips so that the springback compensating member 400 is sleeved in the ferrule area 321a and fixed to the two clips without affecting the conductive properties of the two clips.
[0040] In one embodiment, the socket 10 further includes a first screw connection member, the injection molded lower shell 100 is provided with a first screw connection hole, the injection molded upper shell 200 is provided with a second screw connection hole, and the first screw connection member is sequentially inserted into the first screw connection hole and the second screw connection hole to screw the injection molded upper shell 200 and the injection molded lower shell 100. In this embodiment, the first screw connection member is a screw, and the injection molded upper shell 200 and the injection molded lower shell 100 are fixed by the screw.
[0041] In one embodiment, the two clips 321 and the bottom sheet 322 are integrally stamped and formed. In this embodiment, the two clips 321 and the bottom sheet 322 are integrally stamped and formed, so that the structural strength between the two clips 321 and the bottom sheet 322 is higher.
[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the number of the bronze contact pieces 320 is multiple, and the multiple bronze contact pieces 320 are arranged at intervals on the bronze conductive strip 310. It can be understood that the plug has a two-pin plug and a triangular plug, and by providing multiple bronze contact pieces 320 on the bronze conductive strip 310, and the multiple bronze contact pieces 320 are arranged at intervals, it is suitable for different types of plugs.
[0043] In one embodiment, the socket 10 further includes a second screw connection member, the bronze conductive strip 310 is provided with a first connection hole, the injection molded lower shell 100 is provided with a second connection hole, and the second screw connection member is sequentially passed through the first connection hole and the second connection hole to screw the bronze conductive strip 310 to the injection molded lower shell 100. In this embodiment, the second screw connection member is a screw, and the injection molded lower shell 100 and the bronze conductive strip 310 are fixed by the screw.
[0044] The present application also provides a power strip device, comprising the socket 10 described in any of the above embodiments.
[0045] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:
[0046] In the above-mentioned socket 10, the conductive metal component 300 is arranged between the injection molded lower shell 100 and the injection molded upper shell 200, the bronze conductive strip 310 is connected to the bottom plate 322, the two clips 321 are respectively connected to the two ends of the bottom plate 322, the two clips 321 are bent toward each other to form a ring area 321a, and the rebound compensation member 400 is sleeved in the ring area 321a and is respectively connected to the two clips 321. When the plug passes through the plug hole 210 and abuts against the two clips 321, the two clips 321 are forced to expand outwards, and the synchronous rebound compensation member 400 also expands outwards, so that the plug abuts against the two clips 321; when the plug is pulled out of the two clips 321, the rebound compensation member 400 shrinks inwards due to its elasticity, and the two clips 321 also shrink inwards synchronously. The rebound compensating member 400 improves the clamping strength of the two clips 321 on the plug, and improves the safety performance of the socket 10 . Furthermore, since the clips 321 are made of bronze, the production cost of the socket 10 is reduced.
