[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions 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 in 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] like Figure 1-Figure 6As shown, the utility model discloses a rotatable socket, which consists of a base 1, a switch 5, a wiring 4 and a plurality of mounting positions 21. The base 1 is arranged in a cylindrical shape extending axially up and down, and each mounting position 21 is arranged on the base 1 at intervals along the circumferential direction. The wiring 4 is connected to an external power supply, and also includes a mounting seat 2 rotatably mounted on the base 1. Each mounting position 21 is located on the mounting seat 2. When a user inserts a plug of an electrical appliance into the corresponding mounting position 21 and the power switch 5 is in an on state, a path is formed between the live wire and the neutral wire, and current begins to flow to supply the electrical appliance for use. The motor, heating element or other working parts inside the electrical appliance thereby obtain power and start working (the specific mechanism in the base 1 is the prior art, which is not specifically drawn in the accompanying drawings and will not be specifically described herein). The mounting seat 2 includes a mounting disk 22 with a disc-shaped top. The base 1 includes a mounting groove 11 for the mounting disk 22 to be installed. The base 1 is provided with a mounting plug 12 protruding from the mounting groove 11. The mounting disk 22 corresponds to the mounting The mounting block 12 is provided with a plurality of mounting slots 23, and each of the mounting slots 23 is arranged at intervals along the circumference of the mounting disk 22. 1. After the mounting seat 2 is installed in the base 1, the mounting seat 2 can be rotated in the base 1, and because the mounting disk 22 will be located in the mounting groove 11, the mounting disk 22 cannot continue to move downward, so the mounting seat 2 can be stably located in the base 1; 2. Since the base 1 is located in the mounting groove 11 to set the mounting block 12 and the mounting disk 22 is provided with a plurality of mounting slots 23 corresponding to the mounting block 12, after the mounting disk 22 is moved upward by applying force, the mounting disk 22 is rotated at this time to make the mounting block 12 cooperate with the mounting slots 23 at different positions on the mounting disk 22, so that when the user inserts the plug but encounters the problem of incompatible direction, there is no need to laboriously find the correct angle or adjust the position of the electrical appliance, and only needs to simply rotate the mounting disk 22 to drive the mounting seat 2 to rotate so that the position of the mounting position 21 is rotated to achieve easy access to the plug, which greatly improves the convenience of use.

[0029] Preferably, the mounting block 12 is arranged in a stepped shape that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and each of the mounting slots 23 is arranged in a cubic shape with a length extending up and down. Since the mounting block 12 is arranged in a stepped shape and is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, when the mounting seat 2 and the base 1 need to be relatively fixed in position after the mounting seat 2 is rotated, the mounting block 12 can be inserted into the mounting slot 23 located above the mounting block 12. The mounting block 12 whose upper end surface has a width smaller than the bottom surface width can more smoothly enter the required mounting slot 23 to thereby determine the relative position of the mounting plate 22 and the base 1.

[0030] Among them, the mounting disk 22 is provided with a plurality of disassembly and assembly parts 24 at intervals along the circumferential direction, and each disassembly and assembly part 24 is provided with a contact groove 241. Since each disassembly and assembly part 24 is located on the mounting disk 22 and each disassembly and assembly part 24 is provided with a contact groove 241, when it is necessary to apply an upward force to the mounting disk 22 so as to rotate the mounting seat 2 relative to the base 1, the user can extend his hand into the contact groove 241 to apply force to the disassembly and assembly part 24 to drive the mounting disk 22 to move upward. At this time, the positioning block is separated from the corresponding positioning slot. When the mounting disk 22 is rotated and then moved downward, different positioning slots can cooperate with the positioning block, thereby realizing the rotation of the mounting seat 2 and causing each mounting position 21 to rotate and cooperate with plugs in different directions that need to be installed.

[0031] In addition, it also includes a protective cover 3, and the upward projection of each installation position 21 falls on the protective cover 3. The protective cover 3 is detachably connected to the base 1 by bolts, snaps, etc. Since the upward projection of each installation position 21 falls on the protective cover 3, therefore: 1. When not in use, the protective cover 3 can cover and shield each installation position 21 so that external dust will not accumulate on the installation position 21; 2. When not in use, since the protective cover 3 is detachably connected to the base 1, unrelated personnel, especially children, will not touch the installation position 21, thereby improving the safety of the socket and reducing the possibility of accidental touch.

[0032] Among them, the protective cover 3 is provided with a positioning portion 31 protruding downward, and the mounting seat 2 is provided with a positioning groove 25 for inserting the positioning portion 31 above each mounting position 21. When the protective cover 3 is installed on the base 1, the positioning portion 31 of the protective cover 3 can fall into the positioning groove 25 of the mounting seat 2. Therefore, the positioning portion 31 cannot continue to move downward in the mounting seat 2, thereby realizing the position determination of the protective cover 3 on the base 1, thereby providing convenience for fixing the position of the protective cover 3 on the base 1.

[0033] It is worth noting that the lower end surface of the protective cover 3 will abut against the upper end of the wiring 4, thereby facilitating the positioning of the protective cover 3 and the base 1.

[0034] Among them, the protective cover 3 is provided with a limited insertion block 32 inwardly, and the base 1 is provided with a limited slot 13 corresponding to the limited insertion block 32. The base 1 includes an upper limit segment 14 located above the limited slot 13 and a lower limit segment 15 located below the limited slot 13. After the protective cover 3 is installed on the base 1, the protective cover 3 needs to be applied with an outward force so that the limited insertion block 32 can fall into the limited slot 13 of the base 1. Because the base 1 includes an upper limit segment 14 located above the limited slot 13 and a lower limit segment 15 located below the limited slot 13, Segment 15, therefore, after the limit plug 32 enters the limit slot 13, the upper limit segment 14 abuts against the upper end of the limit plug 32 and the lower limit segment 15 abuts against the lower end of the limit plug 32, so that in the absence of external force, the protective cover 3 cannot move up and down relative to the base 1 to achieve a stable connection between the protective cover 3 and the base 1. When the protective cover 3 needs to be removed from the base 1, an outward force is applied to the protective cover 3 so that the limit plug 32 of the protective cover 3 can move outward and separate from the limit slot 13.

[0035] Preferably, the protective cover 3 is provided with a contact section 33 located below the limiting plug 32, and a matching groove 331 is provided on the inner side of the contact section 33. Since the matching groove 331 is provided on the inner side of the contact section 33 located below the limiting plug 32, after an outward force is applied to the protective cover 3 to cause it to deform and thus the limiting plug 32 is inserted into the limiting slot 13, when it is necessary to remove the limiting plug 32 from the limiting slot 13, the user's hand can penetrate into the matching groove 331 of the contact section 33 and then contact the contact section 33, and transmit the force to the protective cover 3 through the contact section 33, so that the circumference of the protective cover 3 is deformed outward, so that the limiting plug 32 is separated from the limiting slot 13. Therefore, the setting of the matching groove 331 can facilitate the separation of the protective cover 3 and the base 1.

[0036] Among them, the protective cover 3 is provided with a matching plug-in block 34 corresponding to each mounting position 21, and the upward projection of each mounting position 21 falls on the corresponding matching plug-in block 34 respectively. Each matching plug-in block 34 is detachably connected to the protective cover 3 by means of snaps, magnetic attraction, etc. Since each matching plug-in block 34 is detachably connected to the protective cover 3, and the upward projection of each mounting position 21 falls on the corresponding matching plug-in block 34 respectively, when it is necessary to activate some mounting positions 21 but still hope that other mounting positions 21 are not activated, the mounting position 21 at the corresponding position can be activated by removing the matching plug-in block 34 above the required mounting position 21 from the protective cover 3, and the upward projection of other mounting positions 21 falls on the corresponding matching plug-in block 34, so unrelated personnel will not touch other mounting positions 21 and dust still cannot pass over the corresponding matching plug-in block 34 and fall onto the mounting position 21.

[0037] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to implement or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention will not be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but will conform to the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
