[0046] Combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention are clearly and completely described. Obviously, the following embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] Embodiment 1

[0048] A socket protection cover is used to be fixed to a socket or a strip, so as to protect the socket on the socket or strip, and prevent children from inserting their fingers or other conductive parts into the socket when playing, thereby causing electric shock accidents. The protection cover is composed of two parts, which are provided with corresponding sockets to form a two-hole socket, a three-hole socket or a five-hole socket. When the two parts are aligned, each socket is aligned to allow a plug to pass through and be inserted into the socket on the socket or strip. On the contrary, when the two parts are misaligned, the plug cannot be inserted into the socket or strip.

[0049] like Figure 1-4 As shown, in this embodiment, the jack protective cover is provided with jacks for both two-hole plugs and three-hole plugs to pass through, so as to form a five-hole jack protective cover, so that a two-hole plug or a three-hole plug can pass through the protective cover; that is, a two-hole jack group 13 and a three-hole jack group 14 are provided on the protective cover.

[0050] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the socket protective cover is a flat sheet structure as a whole, and is composed of a first cover member 11 and a second cover member 12. The back of the first cover member 11 is flat for bonding and fixing to the socket on the socket or the strip, that is, the fixing surface 102 is formed on the back of the first cover member 11. Preferably, a circle of 3M glue is pre-placed on the bottom surface of the first cover member 11 around its edge, and the user can tear off the 3M glue backing paper to bond the protective cover to the socket.

[0051] A housing cavity 101 is formed integrally with the first cover 11 in a concave manner on the front surface, and the second cover 12 is accommodated and assembled in the housing cavity 101, and the second cover 12 is movably arranged to slide left and right, so that each socket can be aligned or misaligned by sliding left and right of the second cover 12. The front surface refers to the side of the protective cover facing the user when in use, which can also be called the front surface, and the back surface refers to the side facing the socket or strip, which can also be called the back surface.

[0052] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the first cover member 11 is a rectangular sheet-shaped structure as a whole, and a first cover body 111 is provided around its edge, and a cavity wall 113 is formed on one side close to the bottom surface of the first cover body 111, and the first cover body 111 is flush with the bottom surface of the cavity wall 113, and the thickness of the first cover body 111 is greater than the thickness of the cavity wall 113 so that the cavity wall 113 is formed in a recessed manner relative to the first cover body 111, forming the shell cavity 101. The second cover member 12 is formed by a second cover body 121 of a sheet-shaped member corresponding to the shape of the shell cavity 101, and the length of the second cover body 121 in the left-right direction is less than the length of the shell cavity 101, so as to realize a movable arrangement that can slide left and right in the shell cavity 101.

[0053] A slide 124 is protruding from the back of the upper and lower sides of the second cover 12, and the slide 124 is also extended upward or downward to form a second step 104. A through-slot 116 is also provided at the upper and lower edges of the shell cavity 101, and the slide 116 is also extended upward or downward to form a first step 103 at the back of the first cover body 111. After assembly, the slide 124 is slidably arranged along the slide 116, and the second cover 12 is limited relative to the first cover 11 through the interference between the first step 103 and the second step 104, so that the second cover 12 is limited relative to the first cover 11 and will not fall off, and the second cover 12 forms an assembly relationship with the first cover 11 that can only slide and move.

[0054] Preferably, a guide is further provided on the back side of the slide 124 to facilitate the assembly of the second cover 12 into the first cover 11 .

[0055] In this embodiment, a first jack 114 and a third jack 115 are provided through the cavity wall 113, and a second jack 122 and a fourth jack 123 are provided through the second cover body 121. The two first jacks 114 and the two second jacks 122 are used for allowing a two-pin plug to pass through when aligned, and the three third jacks 115 and the three fourth jacks 123 are used for allowing a three-pin plug to pass through when aligned, thereby forming a two-hole jack group 13 and a three-hole jack group 14 respectively.

[0056] In this embodiment, the slide groove 116 is communicated with the first insertion hole 114 to facilitate the molding of the first cover 11 and simplify the mold structure.

[0057] A reset member is also provided between the first cover member 11 and the second cover member 12, so that the second cover member 12 is initially in a misaligned state, so that the first jack 114 and the second jack 122, the third jack 115 and the third and fourth jacks 123 are respectively completely misaligned and do not overlap, so that the jacks on the socket or strip are closed, which not only plays a protective role but also plays a role in dust and splash prevention.

[0058] A spring seat 117 is convexly provided on the cavity wall 113, and a spring cavity 118 for a spring (not shown) to be arranged therein is provided on the spring seat 117, and a sliding opening 119 for a spring stopper 125 to cooperate with. Correspondingly, a spring stopper 125 is convexly provided on the back of the second cover 12, and the two ends of the spring respectively contact the end wall of the spring cavity 118 and the end surface of the spring stopper 125, and the spring stopper 125 is assembled on the sliding opening 119.

[0059] Optimally, a spring cavity 151 is recessed on the back of the second cover 12, the spring stop 125 is disposed in the spring cavity 151, and the spring seat 117 is located in the spring cavity 151 after the first cover and the second cover are assembled, thereby reducing the thickness of the protective cover.

[0060] The installation and use process of the protective cover of this embodiment is as follows:

[0061] First, the protective cover is installed on the socket of the socket or the strip, and it is ensured that the two covers are aligned to allow the plug to pass through the two-hole socket group 13 or the three-hole socket group 14 and be inserted into the socket to obtain electricity. The protective cover is preferably fixed to the socket or the strip by gluing. To improve the convenience of installation, the second cover 12 can be pushed to the aligned state and then the plug can be inserted into the protective cover, and finally the plug and the protective cover can be inserted into the socket together, so as to conveniently complete the alignment installation of the protective cover.

[0062] Secondly, in the initial state, due to the action of the elastic member, the second cover member 12 is in a misaligned state. The user can manually push the second cover member 12 to slide so that the sockets of the two cover members are connected, and then insert the plug at one time to complete the power supply. Alternatively, the user can first insert the plug into the socket of the second cover member 12, and then apply force to the plug to push the second cover member 12 to slide to the alignment position, and finally fully insert the plug to complete the power supply.

[0063] Compared with the known protective cover, the assembly structure of the two cover parts of the protective cover is obviously different, and the user experience also allows the plug to be pre-inserted and the second cover part to slide to the opposite position, so as to complete the full insertion of the plug to draw power, thus simplifying the operation. In addition, the appearance of this product is more beautiful, and the overall thickness of the protective cover is also thinner.

[0064] Embodiment 2

[0065] A jack protection cover, whose main structure is the same as that of the first embodiment, except that the protection cover in this embodiment is formed as a two-hole jack protection cover, that is, it only has a two-hole jack group 13.

[0066] like Figure 5-6 As shown, in this embodiment, the first cover member 11 and the second cover member 12 are smaller in size and are shaped to fit a two-pin plug. The rest is the same as in the first embodiment and will not be described in detail.

[0067] Embodiment 3

[0068] A socket protective cover, whose main structure is the same as that of the first embodiment, except that, in this embodiment, the shell cavity 101 is formed at the back of the first cover member 11 and the second cover member 12 is completely contained by the first cover member 11 after installation.

[0069] Therefore, in this embodiment, the second cover member 12 is fixed to the socket or the socket strip, and the first cover member 11 slides to align the sockets for the plugs to pass through.

[0070] like Figure 7-11 As shown, in this embodiment, the main structures of the first cover member 11 and the second cover member 12 are similar, and the differences include:

[0071] The fixing surface 102 is formed on the bottom surface of the second cover member 12 so that the second cover member 12 is fixed to the socket or the strip after installation.

[0072] A cavity 110 is recessedly formed on the cavity wall 113 of the first cover member 11. The cavity 110 is non-throughly arranged to form a thinned wall 112 at the front surface of the first cover member 11, so that the first cover member 11 is complete except for the insertion hole at the front surface, and a slide groove 116 is formed at the cavity 110 so that the slide member 124 can be assembled therein.

[0073] The slide grooves 116 disposed at the upper and lower edges of the shell cavity 101 also extend upward and downward respectively into the first cover body 111 to form a first step 103 therein, and the first step 103 is disposed toward the front surface in the direction; correspondingly, the slide member 124 located at the front surface of the second cover member 12 forms a second step 104 on the side thereof facing the bottom surface. Therefore, in this embodiment, due to the change in the front and rear positions of the two cover members, the first step 103 and the second step 104 are also changed accordingly.

[0074] Of course, in other embodiments, the concave cavity 110 may not be provided, but the slide groove 116 may be directly provided on the first cover member 11, and the slide member 124 may be slidably fitted therein. Figure 2 The back structure of the first embodiment shown enables the front side of the protective cover to be configured as a structure similar to the back side of the first embodiment, or it is considered that the protective cover of the first embodiment is used by flipping it front and back.

[0075] Embodiment 4

[0076] A socket protection cover, whose main structure is the same as that of the first embodiment, except that in this embodiment, the second cover member 12 and the first cover member 11 are reset by an S-shaped elastic member 15 instead of a spring.

[0077] like Figure 12-15 As shown, a spring cavity 151 is recessed on the bottom surface of the second cover member 12, and the spring cavity 151 allows the S-shaped spring member 15 to be arranged therein to reduce the thickness of the protective cover after assembly, and a side wall of the spring cavity 151 is formed as a first abutment 152; correspondingly, a second abutment 153 is provided on the first cover member 11, and after assembly, the S-shaped spring member 15 is located in the spring cavity 151 and abuts against the first abutment 152 and the second abutment 153.

[0078] In other embodiments, the reset member may also be replaced by a pair of magnets, or a combination of a magnet and a magnetic attraction member, so that the second cover member 12 is initially in a misaligned state through magnetic attraction or magnetic repulsion.
