Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a socket, belonging to a connector. Background Art

[0002] A socket refers to a seat into which one or more circuit connections can be inserted. Various connections can be inserted into it. It is usually divided into power sockets, information sockets, etc. An information socket refers to a socket that can be connected to network equipment. It is usually used to connect computers, routers, televisions and other devices for data transmission and network connection, such as RJ45 sockets, RJ11 sockets, etc. Information sockets are generally used to connect to plugs (such as crystal heads) to achieve data transmission.

[0003] In order to simplify the installation process, especially to facilitate the installation of sockets in a small space, a 180-degree module is usually used. There are sockets for plugs on both sides of the module. The plug-in and pull-out directions of the plugs into the two sockets are 180 degrees symmetrical. Currently, the common 180-degree modules are usually installed in the socket. The socket of one module is flush with the installation port of the shell, but the other socket is located inside the shell. The plug needs to be inserted into the shell first and then into the socket. Especially when a crystal head needs to be installed, a person's fingers need to press the pressure piece to insert it into the socket. However, since the socket is inside the shell, it is easy to make it inconvenient to plug and unplug the plug. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to improve the problem of inconvenience in plugging and unplugging a plug, the utility model provides a socket.

[0005] The utility model provides a socket adopting the following technical solution:

[0006] A socket comprises a base and a cover plate, wherein a cavity is provided between the base and the cover plate, wherein one or more modules are provided in the cavity, wherein both ends of the modules have sockets, and the sockets are located at the cavity opening.

[0007] When installing the plug, a person holds the plug with fingers. Since the socket is located at the cavity mouth, when the plug is inserted into the socket, the person's hand can hold the plug on the outside of the base. This provides space for the person's fingers to grasp the plug and insert it into the socket, which makes it easier to plug and unplug the plug.

[0008] At least one of the upper and lower top surfaces of the module is provided with a protrusion, and the bottom plate and cover plate of the base are provided with grooves matching the protrusion, and the side walls of the protrusion are in contact with the groove walls of the groove to limit the movement of the module.

[0009] By inserting the protrusion into the groove, when plugging and unplugging the socket, the module is prevented from moving with the socket as much as possible, which is beneficial to improving the installation stability of the module in the base.

[0010] A positioning plate is provided on the side wall of the cavity, and a positioning arc plate is provided on the side wall of the cavity. The positioning arc plate is arranged near the cavity opening, and the positioning arc plate is fitted with the module side wall near the cavity opening, and the end of the positioning arc plate is connected to the root of the positioning plate.

[0011] A limit plate is provided on the side wall of the module, and the limit plate and the positioning plate are staggered, and the limit plate is inclined to one side of the positioning arc plate, and the limit plate is located between the positioning plate and the positioning arc plate. The positioning arc plate is used to limit the limit plate. When the module is moved by a pulling force in one direction, the end of the limit plate contacts the positioning plate, and when the module is moved by a pulling force in another direction, the limit plate fits with the positioning arc plate.

[0012] Since there are two plugging and unplugging methods in opposite directions, when the limit plate moves toward the side of the positioning plate, the inclined limit plate contacts the positioning plate to avoid the module falling off when plugging and unplugging the plug; in addition, the root of the positioning plate at the end of the limit plate contacts the root of the positioning plate, instead of the surface-to-surface contact between the limit plate and the positioning plate, which is beneficial to avoid the positioning plate squeezing the limit plate and causing deformation of the limit plate or the positioning plate.

[0013] When the limit plate moves toward the positioning arc plate, on the one hand, the positioning arc plate supports the limit plate to limit the movement of the module, and on the other hand, the positioning arc plate fits the module, and the positioning arc plate has friction on the module to prevent the module from moving.

[0014] Moreover, as the module moves further outward, the limit plate is squeezed by the positioning arc plate and shrinks and deforms toward the side wall of the module. However, at the same time, since the positioning arc plate fits the module close to the cavity opening, there is no gap between the positioning arc plate and the module for the positioning arc plate to squeeze into, so the positioning arc plate can limit the module.

[0015] In addition, when the end of the limiting plate squeezes the end of the positioning plate, since the positioning arc plate is connected to the end of the positioning plate, the strength of the positioning plate can be improved.

[0016] The base is provided with a positioning column, the cover is provided with a positioning hole for the positioning column to be inserted, the base is provided with a buckle, and the cover is provided with a hook plate buckled with the buckle.

[0017] During installation, the positioning column is inserted into the positioning hole, and the buckle is hooked with the hook plate, so that the base and the cover plate can be connected and installed.

[0018] The base and the cover plate are provided with a slot for inserting the folded edge of the guide rail, and the slot wall is provided with a limiter, which is used to limit the folded edge of the guide rail and prevent the folded edge of the guide rail from leaving the slot. An elastic clamping member is provided on the base and located on the inner side of the guide rail, and the elastic clamping member is used to squeeze the folded edge of the guide rail toward the side of the slot wall.

[0019] When installing the socket, the socket can be installed by inserting the guide rail into the slot, limiting the guide rail by the limiting member, and simultaneously tightening the guide rail by the elastic tightening member, thereby improving the convenience of installation.

[0020] The elastic clamping member includes an elastic plate arranged on the base, and the elastic plate presses the guide rail against the groove wall of the slot. The elastic plate includes a rebound part connected to the base and an extrusion head arranged on the rebound part. The extrusion head is arranged on the side of the rebound part close to the guide rail for extrusion with the guide rail; a support is provided on the base, and the elastic plate and the support are connected by an elastic rebound support plate.

[0021] When installing the socket, the guide rail is inserted into the slot by squeezing the inner wall of the guide rail with the extrusion head, and the guide rail pushes the elastic plate to deform, thereby forcing the guide rail to press against the slot wall of the slot, thereby improving the installation stability of the socket in the slot; after the guide rail is separated from the slot, the elastic plate can be reset, which is convenient for installing the socket again. The elastic plate is supported by the elastic back-supporting plate to reduce the plastic deformation of the elastic plate.

[0022] The limiting member comprises a limiting convex plate arranged on the base, and the base and the cover plate are provided with limiting protrusions; the limiting convex plate is provided with a guide arc surface for the guide rail to fold and extrude, and the limiting convex plate is provided with a hollow groove.

[0023] On the one hand, the guide rail is limited by the limiting protrusion and the limiting convex plate, reducing the possibility of the socket being separated from the guide rail. On the other hand, since the folding ear is first inserted under the limiting protrusion, and the socket is then rotated along the card slot on the lower side of the limiting protrusion, the limiting protrusion is provided on the base 2 and the cover plate to increase the contact area between the limiting protrusion and the folding ear, which can increase the stability of the installation of the guide rail; the guiding arc surface can facilitate the folded edge of the guide rail to slide into the card slot.

[0024] In order to improve the deformation ability of the limiting convex plate, a hollow groove is dug on the limiting convex plate, which can also save plastic usage and reduce costs.

[0025] Beneficial technical effects of the utility model:

[0026] 1. The socket of the module is close to the side of the cavity opening, so that people can move around when plugging and unplugging the plug, thereby improving the convenience of plugging and unplugging the plug;

[0027] 2. Since multiple modules can be installed in the base, plugs can be inserted into both ends of the module, that is, multiple plugs can be inserted per unit area, so the socket protected by the utility model is small in size and high in density;

[0028] 3. Insert the module into the cavity, insert the positioning column into the positioning hole, and buckle the buckle with the hook plate to connect the cover plate to the base. This can well fix the module firmly in the base to ensure the stability of the product's transmission signal;

[0029] 4. Use the card slot to clip the socket onto the guide rail, use the limit piece to limit the folded edge of the guide rail, and use the elastic fastening piece to press the folded edge of the guide rail against the wall of the card slot to prevent the socket from leaving the guide rail. This can achieve installation, which is conducive to improving the convenience of installation and thus improving construction efficiency. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
