Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of connecting devices, in particular to a one-piece installation frame for a socket and a socket. Background Art

[0002] Currently, more and more users like to install multiple switches and sockets side by side, and improve the decorative aesthetics by installing one-piece frames; there are many kinds of one-piece frames on the market, many of which are equipped with side walls around them. After the electrical products are installed, the side walls of the one-piece frames can wrap the products, which is very beautiful; but this setting also has obvious shortcomings. The side walls of the existing frames are thin, the structural strength is insufficient, and it is impossible to design ribs to enhance the strength. As a result, after the electrician installs the product, the middle part of the side wall is deformed and concave, which reduces the aesthetics after installation. At the same time, the concave side wall will squeeze the product, resulting in the panel being unable to be removed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to provide a one-piece installation frame for a socket and a socket, so as to improve the problem that the side wall of the one-piece frame is prone to deformation.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: a one-piece installation frame and a socket for a socket, comprising a frame body, the frame body comprising a base plate and a first side wall and a second side wall relatively arranged on the base plate, the base plate is provided with a plurality of installation openings for installing single functional products, the installation openings are located between the first side wall and the second side wall, a first partition groove is provided between the first side wall and the installation opening, a second partition groove is provided between the second side wall and the installation opening, and the first partition groove and the second partition groove pass through the base plate.

[0005] After adopting the above technical scheme, the utility model has the following advantages: after the installation of the single functional product, the downward pressure of the single functional product on the bottom plate will drive the first side wall and the second side wall to concave inward and deform, by setting a first partition groove penetrating the bottom plate between the first side wall and the installation opening, and setting a second partition groove penetrating the bottom plate between the second side wall and the installation opening, a deformation space is provided for the bottom plate between the installation opening and the first side wall and the second side wall, and the deformation of the first side wall and the second side wall caused by the pressure on the bottom plate is reduced, so as to prevent the first side wall and the second side wall from being excessively concave and squeezing the single functional product, resulting in the single functional product being unable to be disassembled; in addition, the possibility of deformation of the first side wall and the second side wall is reduced, so that the single functional product can be adapted to the frame body, and the connection between the single functional product and the frame body is tighter and smoother, which helps to improve the aesthetics of the single functional product after installation.

[0006] Further, the first side wall and the second side wall are oppositely arranged on the long sides of the frame body. Both the first partition slot and the second partition slot are strip-shaped, and fillet transitions are adopted between the two long sides of the first partition slot and the second partition slot.

[0007] With the foregoing technical solution, the first partition slot and the second partition slot with fillet transitions can effectively avoid stress concentration, effectively improve the strength of the first partition slot and the second partition slot, and reduce the possibility of fracture of the first partition slot and the second partition slot.

[0008] Further, the horizontal distance between the first partition slot and the installation opening is L1, and the horizontal distance between the first partition slot and the first side wall is L2, where L1 > L2.

[0009] With the foregoing technical solution, L1 > L2 makes the first partition slot far from the installation opening, and the pressure generated by the installation of the single-function product is transmitted to the first partition slot less, and it is easier to reduce the deformation of the first side wall through the first partition slot.

[0010] Further, the widths of the first partition slot and the second partition slot are K, where K ≥ 2 mm.

[0011] With the foregoing technical solution, the widths of the first partition slot and the second partition slot being greater than or equal to 2 mm can provide sufficient deformation space for the deformation of the bottom plate under pressure, reducing the pulling force on the first side wall and the second side wall; if K is less than 2 mm, it will result in insufficient deformation space when the bottom plate is under pressure, and excessive pulling of the first side wall and the second side wall will cause concavity.

[0012] Further, at least two positioning posts are provided at the position of the bottom plate corresponding to the installation opening, and the positioning posts pass through the positioning holes on the single-function product.

[0013] With the foregoing technical solution, the design of the positioning posts can enable the user to position the single-function product during installation and assist the user in installing the single-function product into the installation opening.

[0014] Further, the positioning posts are deformation positioning posts, and the diameter of the deformation positioning posts is greater than the diameter of the positioning holes.

[0015] With the foregoing technical solution, due to the deformation ability of the deformation positioning posts, when the user needs to position, positioning can be achieved only through the interference fit with the positioning holes. It is convenient for installation and disassembly. At the same time, the diameter of the deformation positioning posts being greater than the diameter of the positioning holes can ensure that the deformation positioning posts can achieve interference fit with the positioning holes during installation.

[0016] Furthermore, a groove is provided at the bottom of the deformable positioning column to provide a deformation space for the deformable positioning column. With the above technical solution, when the product is installed, the deformable positioning column is squeezed and deformed, and the deformed part moves downward into the groove, solving the problem of uneven bottom surface caused by deformation.

[0017] Furthermore, an avoidance groove is provided on the first side wall, and the avoidance groove is arranged corresponding to the position of the first partition groove, and the length of the avoidance groove is greater than the length of the first partition groove.

[0018] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the avoidance groove provides design space for the first partition groove. When replacing electrical products, the first side wall is usually wrapped too tightly and it is difficult to remove the panel. Elastic deformation is easily generated at the avoidance groove, which makes it easier to disassemble the single functional product.

[0019] Furthermore, a plurality of disassembly openings are provided at positions corresponding to the installation openings on the second side wall, and the disassembly openings penetrate the second side wall and extend to the bottom plate. An inclined surface is provided at the connection between at least one disassembly opening and the bottom plate, and a gap is formed between the inclined surface and the plane where the bottom plate is located, and the opening of the gap faces the disassembly opening.

[0020] By adopting the above-mentioned technical scheme, after the single functional product is installed on the base plate, it is surrounded by the first side wall and the second side wall, and the several disassembly openings on the second side wall can facilitate the user to remove the single functional product from the encirclement of the first side wall and the second side wall; in addition, when the single functional product is installed on the base plate 1, the single functional product and the base plate 1 remain in contact, and the design of the inclined surface 14 can form a gap between the single functional product and the inclined surface 14, so that the user can insert the tool into the gap, thereby prying the single functional product, making the disassembly of the single functional product more convenient and labor-saving.

[0021] A socket comprises a socket body, a panel covering the socket body, and also comprises any one of the above-mentioned one-piece mounting frames for the socket, wherein the socket body and the panel are fixedly mounted on the one-piece mounting frame for the socket.

[0022] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, after the socket body and the panel are installed on the one-piece mounting frame for the socket, the bottom plate will be subjected to the downward pressure of the socket body, which will drive the first side wall and the second side wall to be concave inward to produce a deformation. By setting a first partition groove passing through the bottom plate between the first side wall and the mounting opening, and setting a second partition groove passing through the bottom plate between the second side wall and the mounting opening, a deformation space is provided for the bottom plate between the mounting opening and the first side wall and the second side wall, thereby reducing the deformation of the first side wall and the second side wall caused by the pressure on the bottom plate, thereby preventing the first side wall and the second side wall from being excessively concave and squeezing the socket body, resulting in the socket body and the panel being unable to be disassembled.

[0031] The following specific embodiments are used to describe the technical solution of the utility model in detail. The following specific embodiments can be combined or replaced with each other according to actual conditions, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0032] Embodiment 1:

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a one-piece installation frame for a socket, including a frame body, the frame body including a base plate 1 and a first side wall 2 and a second side wall 3 relatively arranged on the base plate 1, a plurality of installation openings 4 for installing single functional products are opened on the base plate 1, the installation openings 4 are located between the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3, a first partition groove 5 is provided between the first side wall 2 and the installation opening 4, a second partition groove 6 is provided between the second side wall 3 and the installation opening 4, and the first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6 pass through the base plate 1.

[0034] After the installation of the single functional product, the bottom plate 1 will be deformed by the downward pressure of the single functional product, which will drive the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 to be concave inward. The utility model provides a deformation space for the bottom plate 1 between the installation port 4 and the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 by setting a first partition groove 5 penetrating the bottom plate 1 between the first side wall 2 and the installation port 4, and setting a second partition groove 6 penetrating the bottom plate 1 between the second side wall 3 and the installation port 4, thereby reducing the deformation of the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 caused by the pressure on the bottom plate 1 to be concave, so as to prevent the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 from being excessively concave and squeezing the single functional product, resulting in the single functional product being unable to be disassembled. In addition, reducing the possibility of deformation of the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 can enable the single functional product to be compatible with the frame body, make the connection between the single functional product and the frame body tighter and smoother, and help to improve the aesthetics of the single functional product after installation.

[0035] The above-mentioned single functional product may be a socket or a switch, or a plurality of the single functional products may be installed in parallel in the above-mentioned connected frame.

[0036] In the present embodiment, the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 are relatively arranged on the long side of the frame body, and a separate first partition groove 5 and a second partition groove 6 are respectively provided at the corresponding position of each mounting opening 4 relative to the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3. The first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6 are both in the shape of long strips, and rounded corners are used between the two long sides of the first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6. The first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6 with rounded corners can effectively avoid stress concentration, effectively improve the strength of the first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6, and reduce the possibility of fracture of the first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6.

[0037] In another embodiment, the bottom plate 1 is provided with a first partition groove 5 and a second partition groove 6 of sufficient length, and all the mounting openings 4 share the same first partition groove 5 and second partition groove 6.

[0038] Specifically, the horizontal distance between the first partition groove 5 and the mounting opening 4 is L1, and the horizontal distance between the first partition groove 5 and the first side wall 2 is L2, where L1 > L2, so that the first partition groove 5 is far from the mounting opening, and the pressure generated by the installation of the single-function product is transmitted to the first partition groove 5 less, and it is easier to reduce the deformation of the first side wall 2 through the first partition groove 5.

[0039] Among them, in this embodiment, the widths of the first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6 are K, and K = 2 mm; the widths of the first partition groove 5 and the second partition groove 6 being equal to 2 mm can provide sufficient deformation space when the bottom plate 1 is compressed and deformed, reducing the pulling force on the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3; if K is less than 2 mm, it will result in insufficient deformation space when the bottom plate 1 is compressed, and over-pulling the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 will cause concavity. Of course, in other embodiments, K can also be set to be greater than 2 mm, as long as it ensures that the bottom plate 1 has sufficient deformation space.

[0040] In this embodiment, four positioning posts 7 are provided at the positions of the bottom plate 1 corresponding to the mounting openings 4, respectively arranged at the four corners of the mounting opening 4, and the positioning posts 7 pass through the positioning holes on the single-function product; the design of the positioning posts 7 can enable the user to position the single-function product during installation and assist the user in installing the single-function product into the mounting opening 4.

[0041] In another embodiment, two positioning posts 7 are provided at the positions of the bottom plate 1 corresponding to the mounting openings 4, and the two positioning posts 7 are arranged diagonally, which can also position the single-function product.

[0042] In this embodiment, two of the four positioning posts 7 are deformation positioning posts 8, and the diameter of the deformation positioning posts 8 is greater than the diameter of the positioning holes; due to its deformation ability, the deformation positioning posts 8 can achieve positioning only through interference fit with the positioning holes when the user needs to position, which is convenient for installation and disassembly. At the same time, the diameter of the deformation positioning posts 7 being greater than the diameter of the positioning holes can ensure that the deformation positioning posts 8 can achieve interference fit with the positioning holes when the user installs.

[0043] Specifically, the bottom of the deformation positioning post 8 is provided with a groove to provide deformation space for the deformation positioning post 8. When the product is installed, the deformation positioning post 8 is squeezed and deformed, and the deformed part moves downward into the groove, solving the problem of uneven bottom surface caused by deformation.

[0044] In another embodiment, all four positioning posts 7 are deformation positioning posts 8, and the diameter of each deformation positioning post 8 is greater than the diameter of the positioning holes, and interference fit with the positioning holes realizes the positioning function.

[0045] Among them, the deformation positioning column 8 in the above solution is a cross rib. Of course, the deformation positioning column 8 can also be a cross rib-like structure, such as an X shape or a three-line one-point, five-line one-point, etc.

[0046] It can be understood that an avoidance groove 9 is provided on the first side wall 2, and the avoidance groove 9 is arranged corresponding to the position of the first partition groove 5, and the length of the avoidance groove 9 is greater than the length of the first partition groove 5; the avoidance groove 9 provides a design space for the first partition groove 5. When replacing electrical products, the first side wall 2 is usually wrapped too tightly and it is difficult to disassemble the single functional product. Elastic deformation is easily generated at the avoidance groove 9, which makes it easier to disassemble the single functional product.

[0047] Specifically, in the present embodiment, there is a first disassembly opening 10 and two second disassembly openings 11 on the second side wall 3 corresponding to the position of each installation opening 4, the first disassembly opening 10 and the second disassembly opening 11 both penetrate the second side wall 3 and extend to the bottom plate 1, and an inclined surface 14 is provided at the connection between the two second disassembly openings 11 and the bottom plate 1, a gap is formed between the inclined surface 14 and the plane where the bottom plate 1 is located, and the opening of the gap faces the second disassembly opening 11, so that the user can pry out the single functional product, because the single functional product is surrounded by the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 after being installed on the bottom plate 1, and the several disassembly openings on the second side wall 3 can facilitate the user to remove the single functional product from the encirclement of the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3; in addition, when the single functional product is installed on the bottom plate 1, the single functional product keeps in contact with the bottom plate 1, and the design of the inclined surface 14 can form a gap between the single functional product and the inclined surface 14, so that the user can insert a tool into the gap, thereby prying the single functional product, making the disassembly of the single functional product more convenient and labor-saving.

[0048] Specifically, a downwardly inclined guide surface 12 is provided on the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 away from the bottom plate 1, i.e., on the top of the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3; the user can conveniently place the single functional product into the above-mentioned integrated frame through the guide surface 12 for subsequent installation.

[0049] Embodiment 2:

[0050] A socket comprises a socket body, a panel covering the socket body, and also comprises any one of the above-mentioned one-piece mounting frames for the socket, wherein the socket body and the panel are fixedly mounted on the one-piece mounting frame for the socket.

[0051] After the socket body and the panel are installed on the integral installation frame for the socket, the bottom plate is driven by the downward pressure of the socket body to drive the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 to be recessed inward to generate deformation. By providing a first partition groove 5 penetrating the bottom plate between the first side wall 2 and the installation opening 4, and a second partition groove 6 penetrating the bottom plate between the second side wall 3 and the installation opening 4, a deformation space is provided for the bottom plate 1 between the installation opening 4 and the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3, reducing the deformation of the bottom plate driving the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 to be recessed inward, so as to prevent the first side wall 2 and the second side wall 3 from being excessively recessed inward to squeeze the socket body, resulting in the situation that the socket body and the panel cannot be disassembled.

[0052] In addition to the above preferred embodiments, the present utility model has other implementation manners. Based on the embodiments in the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope claimed by the present utility model.
