Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of track sockets, in particular to a rotary track socket adapter. Background Art

[0002] Track sockets usually include a track and multiple adapters slidably arranged on it. The track can be set on a wall or embedded in a table. Any number of adapters can be installed within the track, and each adapter can be moved along the track to change its position. Thus, the adapter can power electrical appliances in multiple locations.

[0003] The existing adapter structure still has shortcomings: for example, the technical solution disclosed in Chinese patent CN201921086035.6 (a quick wiring socket): the wiring plugs on the positioning column include a live wire plug, a neutral wire plug and a ground wire plug, wherein the live wire plug and the neutral wire plug are located on the same side, and the conductive component is arranged away from the live wire plug. The above technical solution has unreasonable structural design: (1) The live wire plug and the neutral wire plug are located on the same side, that is, the live wire plug is located directly above or directly below the neutral wire plug, which makes the entire adapter inserted into the track thicker, so the track must also be made thicker, resulting in more materials and high costs during manufacturing; (2) The adapter lacks a positioning function when it is rotated into place, and it is easy to make misjudgments based on personal experience; (3) When the adapter is installed on the power track, the live wire and the neutral wire are easily connected reversely. If the live wire and the neutral wire are connected reversely, the appliance may not work properly because the circuit cannot be closed and the appliance cannot operate; it will also cause a short circuit and cause safety hazards; for electrical appliances with triangular plugs, if the position of the live and neutral wires is wrong, the switch of the appliance cannot disconnect the live wire, resulting in voltage still existing inside the appliance when the appliance is not working. Once the metal shell leaks, there will be a risk of electric shock, which is poor in practicality. Utility Model Content
