Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of sockets, and particularly relates to an improved structure of a socket. Background Art

[0002] For the existing socket, see the Chinese utility model patent number: 2016211724980, name: sliding cover socket, authorization announcement date: June 27, 2017. It includes a base, a peripheral frame and a sliding cover. The peripheral frame is fixedly arranged on the outer edge of the upper end surface of the base. Slideways are arranged on the opposite sides of the peripheral frame. The sliding cover can slide along the slideways. The left and right sides of the upper end surface of the base are a switch area and a socket area respectively. The switch area is provided with a sliding switch. The sliding direction of the sliding switch is consistent with the extending direction of the slideways. A switch groove extending along the slideway direction is arranged on the lower end surface of the sliding cover. The sliding switch is located in the switch groove. When the sliding cover slides to the switch area, the right side wall of the switch groove drives the sliding switch to move leftward, and the sliding switch is turned on; when the sliding cover slides to the socket area, the left side wall of the switch groove drives the sliding switch to move rightward, and the sliding switch is turned off. The function of the sliding cover of the utility model can not only cover the socket area, but also turn on and off the sliding switch through the drive of the switch groove during the sliding process, thereby making the socket area powered on or powered off. The linkage is strong and the safety is high.

[0003] However, the sliding cover socket with the above structure still has the following deficiencies: (1) The above sliding cover is installed on an external carrier (table or cabinet) through the connection holes on the connecting ears, and the external carrier (table or cabinet) needs to be provided with connection screw holes corresponding to the connection holes, or when installing, the screw is directly driven into the tabletop through the connection hole by an electric screw gun. The operation is relatively cumbersome and will damage the external carrier. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the deficiencies existing in the above prior art, and to provide an improved structure of a socket with elastic claws added, which is simple to install and operate and will not damage the tabletop.

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is achieved as follows:

[0006] An improved structure of a socket, comprising a socket body, on which a plurality of socket modules are provided. It is characterized in that it further includes elastic claws and a pushing member. An accommodation space is provided inside the socket body. The elastic claws are placed in the accommodation space in a retractable manner, and one end of the elastic claws extends outside the accommodation space. An operation end is provided on the pushing member. The pushing member is placed in the accommodation space in a movable manner, and the operation end extends outside the accommodation space. One end of the pushing member is close to the elastic claws. For this improved structure of the socket, by adding elastic claws, when in use, the user can control the movement of the pushing member through the operation end. Then, the moving pushing member can push one end of the elastic claws to extend out of the side wall of the socket body, so that there is a clamping gap between one end of the elastic claws and the side wall of the socket body. The socket can be installed on an external carrier through the clamping gap. Its installation operation is simple and will not damage the desktop. Moreover, the distance that one end of the elastic claws extends out of the side wall of the socket body can be adjusted through the operation end, that is, the clamping gap is adjustable. Therefore, the adjustable clamping gap can meet various installation requirements to meet more usage needs of users.

[0007] The object of the present utility model can also be solved by adopting the following technical measures:

[0008] Specifically further, a first inclined surface is provided at one end of the pushing member, and a second inclined surface is provided at one end of the elastic claws close to the pushing member. The first inclined surface and the second inclined surface are close to each other. Through the cooperation of the first inclined surface and the second inclined surface, the pushing member can stably push the elastic claws to move.

[0009] Specifically further, the elastic claws include an elastic member and a claw. An installation cavity is provided on the claw. A blocking wall is provided on the accommodation space. The claw is placed on the accommodation space and the blocking wall extends into the installation cavity. The elastic member is placed in the installation cavity, and both ends of the elastic member are respectively abutted against the side wall of the installation cavity and the blocking wall. One end of the claw extends outside the accommodation space, and the second inclined surface is provided at the other end of the claw. When using the claw, while the pushing member pushes the claw to move, the spring is compressed by the claw, so that one end of the claw extends outside the accommodation space. When storing the claw, the pushing member moves in the reverse direction, and the compressed spring pushes the claw to move in the reverse direction under the action of the elastic restoring force, so that the spring and the claw are reset, and the implementation effect is good.

[0010] Specifically further, a pushing screw is further included. One end of the pushing screw passes through the socket body and extends into the accommodation space to be threadedly connected with the pushing member. The screw head of the pushing screw constitutes the operation end. Through the threaded connection between the pushing screw and the pushing member, the user can rotate the pushing screw to realize the movement of the pushing member on the pushing screw, and then the pushing member can push the elastic claws to move, and its operation is simple.

[0011] Specifically further, it further includes a driving nut. A nut placement groove and a through groove are provided on the driving member. The driving nut is placed on the nut placement groove and the screw hole of the driving nut is aligned with the through groove. One end of the driving screw passing through the socket body is connected to the screw hole of the driving nut and then passes through the through groove. By rotating the driving screw, the movement of the driving nut on the driving screw can be realized. Furthermore, when the driving nut moves, the driving member is also driven to move, and the implementation effect is good.

[0012] Specifically further, it further includes a mounting seat. The socket body includes a base and an upper cover. A plurality of the socket modules are provided on the upper cover. The upper cover is connected to the upper opening of the base. Side covers are also connected to the two side openings of the base. An accommodation recess is formed on the mounting seat. The elastic claw and the driving member are both placed on the accommodation recess. The mounting seat is connected to the side cover, and the accommodation recess and one side of the side cover enclose the accommodation space. The accommodation space formed by the mounting seat and the side cover provides a stable mounting carrier for the elastic claw and the driving member, which is beneficial to the stable operation of the elastic claw and the driving member.

[0013] Specifically further, it further includes a sliding cover and an elastic blocking member. The sliding cover is arranged on the upper cover in a slidable manner. An installation recess is provided on the mounting seat. The installation recess and one side of the side cover enclose an installation space. The elastic blocking member is arranged on the installation space in a telescopic manner and the upper part of the elastic blocking member extends upward out of the upper cover. The inner wall of the sliding cover is close to the upper surface of the elastic blocking member. First and second limit blocks are respectively arranged at both ends of the inner wall of the sliding cover. The sliding cover cooperates with the elastic blocking member on the socket body through the first and second limit blocks to respectively realize the limit of the sliding cover in the open state or the closed state. The implementation is simple and convenient. Moreover, when the sliding cover needs to be replaced, when the sliding cover is in the open state, just push the elastic blocking member to contract into the installation space with a tool, and then the sliding cover can be pushed away from the socket body, making the installation and disassembly operation of the sliding cover simple and convenient, which is beneficial to the maintenance or replacement of the sliding cover.

[0014] Specifically further, the elastic blocking member includes a spring and a blocking block. The spring and the blocking block are both placed in the installation space and the two ends of the spring respectively abut against the bottom wall of the installation space and the lower part of the blocking block. So that the spring can stably push the blocking block to extend upward out of the installation space, so that the blocking block can play a better blocking role to prevent the sliding cover from detaching from the socket body. When the sliding cover needs to be disassembled, push the blocking block to move with a tool, so that the blocking block compresses the spring, and thus the blocking block and the spring can contract into the installation space, which is convenient for taking out the sliding cover.

[0015] Specifically, further, a pushing inclined surface is provided on the elastic blocking member. There is a gap between the bottom surface of the first limiting block and the upper end surface of the socket body, and a guiding inclined surface is provided on the bottom surface of the first limiting block, and the guiding inclined surface corresponds to the position of the pushing inclined surface; the tool can pass through the guiding inclined surface and the gap and then abut against the pushing inclined surface of the elastic blocking block, and then the tool pushes the elastic blocking block to move and contract into the installation space through the pushing inclined surface.

[0016] Specifically, further, it further includes a connecting member. The connecting member includes a moving part and a connecting part. Clamping parts extend outwards from both sides of the upper cover. The moving part is movably connected to the outer end surface of the side cover. The connecting part is located below the clamping part and there is a clamping gap between the connecting part and the clamping part; the socket body can be installed on the external carrier through the clamping gap. At the same time, the user can adjust the position of the moving part on the outer end surface of the side cover, and then adjust the clamping gap to meet different installation requirements. Moreover, the connecting member and the elastic claw are respectively arranged at different positions of the socket body, and the user can select the connecting member or the elastic claw according to different installation scenarios to meet the usage requirements of different installation scenarios.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows:

[0018] (1) The structure of this socket is improved. By adding elastic claws, when in use, the user can control the movement of the pushing member through the operating end. Then, the moving pushing member can push one end of the elastic claw to extend out of the side wall of the socket body, so that there is a clamping gap between one end of the elastic claw and the side wall of the socket body. The socket can be installed on the external carrier through the clamping gap. Its installation operation is simple and will not damage the desktop. Moreover, the distance that one end of the elastic claw extends out of the side wall of the socket body can be adjusted through the operating end, that is, the clamping gap is adjustable. Therefore, the adjustable clamping gap can meet various installation requirements to meet more usage requirements of the user.

[0019] (2) By rotating the pushing screw, the movement of the pushing nut on the pushing screw can be realized. Then, while the pushing nut moves, it also drives the pushing member to move, and its implementation effect is good.

[0020] (3) The socket body can be installed on the external carrier through the clamping gap. At the same time, the user can adjust the position of the moving part on the outer end surface of the side cover, and then adjust the clamping gap to meet different installation requirements. Moreover, the connecting member and the elastic claw are respectively arranged at different positions of the socket body, and the user can select the connecting member or the elastic claw according to different installation scenarios to meet the usage requirements of different installation scenarios.
