[0023] Specifically, the switch assembly 2 includes a button 21, a replacement assembly 22, a snap ring 23, a connecting block 24, a through groove 25, a first spring 26 and a block 27. A through groove 25 is arranged on the inner top of the fixed outer shell 1, a first spring 26 is embedded in the through groove 25, a connecting block 24 is connected to the side of the first spring 26, a button 21 is connected to the side of the connecting block 24, a block 27 is arranged below the button 21, a replacement assembly 22 is embedded in the limit sliding block 5, a snap ring 23 is connected to the top of the shielding member 6, and the block 27 and the snap ring 23 are in a plug-in structure.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solutions, under the elastic action of the first spring 26 in the through groove 25, the block 27 and the snap ring 23 are plugged to implement closing and positioning of the shielding member 6. Press the button 21 to drive the block 27 to move through the connecting block 24. After the block 27 is separated from the snap ring 23, the shielding member 6 will automatically fall and open under the action of gravity. The opening and closing operation of the shielding member 6 is simple and the use effect is better.

[0025] Specifically, the surface of the connecting block 24 is closely attached to the inner wall of the through groove 25, and the side end of the block 27 is in an inclined surface structure.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution, when the upper push shielding member 6 abuts against the side inclined surface of the clamping block 27, the clamping block 27 can be automatically retracted, which is convenient for closing the shielding member 6, and the operation is simple and more convenient to use.

[0027] Specifically, the replacement component 22 includes a bolt 221, a positioning block 222 and a threaded groove 223. The positioning block 222 is embedded inside the limit slider 5, the bolt 221 is embedded inside the positioning block 222, threaded grooves 223 are formed on both sides of the shielding member 6, and the positioning block 222 is in an annular structure.

[0028] By adopting the above technical solution, when the bolt 221 is rotated and engaged with the threaded groove 223, the bolt 221 can drive the limit slider 5 to separate from the shielding member 6 through the positioning block 222, which is convenient for replacing the damaged shielding member 6 and thus improving the protection effect on the socket.

[0029] When this embodiment is in use, the fixed housing 1 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the socket panel 3. The shielding member 6 is installed on the surface of the socket panel 3 through the sliding connection structure between the limit slider 5 and the limit chute 4.

Under the elastic force of the spring 26 inside the through groove 25, the clamping block 27 is inserted into the snap ring 23 to implement closing and positioning of the shielding member 6. Pressing the button 21 drives the clamping block 27 to move through the connecting block 24. After the clamping block 27 is separated from the snap ring 23, the shielding member 6 will automatically fall and open under the action of gravity. Pushing up the shielding member 6 against the side inclined surface of the clamping block 27 can make the clamping block 27 automatically retract to facilitate closing the shielding member 6. The opening and closing operation of the shielding member 6 is simple and has a better use effect. When the bolt 221 is rotated and engaged with the threaded groove 223, the bolt 221 can drive the limit slider 5 to separate from the shielding member 6 through the positioning block 222, which is convenient for replacing the damaged shielding member 6 and thus improving the protection effect on the socket.

[0030] Embodiment 2

[0031] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the anti-touch component 7 includes an anti-touch shell 71, a plug block 73, a spring 74, a frame 75 and a jack 76. The anti-touch shell 71 is arranged on the surface of the socket panel 3. An insertion hole 76 is formed inside the anti-touch shell 71. A frame 75 is installed on the side of the insertion hole 76. Two springs 74 are embedded inside the frame 75, and a plug block 73 is connected to the side of the spring 74.

[0032] Specifically, the frame 75 is in a U-shaped structure. The surface of the plug block 73 is attached to the inner wall of the frame 75. A baffle 72 is installed on the surface of the anti-touch shell 71 at the side end of the plug block 73.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-touch shell 71 is installed and fixed on the outer side of the socket panel 3. Under the elastic force of the second spring 74 inside the frame 75, the blocking block 73 can block the jack 76, preventing electric shock caused by children playing, thereby improving the safety of using the socket. The frame 75 and the baffle 72 cooperate with the inclined plane of the blocking block 73, and the blocking block 73 will automatically open when the plug is inserted for easy use of the socket.

[0034] When this embodiment is in use, the anti-touch shell 71 is installed and fixed on the outer side of the socket panel 3. Under the elastic force of the second spring 74 inside the frame 75, the blocking block 73 can block the jack 76, preventing electric shock caused by children playing, thereby improving the safety of using the socket. The frame 75 and the baffle 72 cooperate with the inclined plane of the blocking block 73, and the blocking block 73 will automatically open when the plug is inserted for easy use of the socket.

[0035] The structures and working principles of the fixed shell 1, the socket panel 3, the limit sliding groove 4, the limit sliding block 5, and the shielding member 6 in the present utility model have been disclosed in a socket protection device with Chinese patent application number 201821530306.8. Its working principle is that the fixed shell 1 is installed and fixed on the outer surface of the socket panel 3, and the shielding member 6 is installed inside the fixed shell 1 through the limit sliding connection structure between the limit sliding block 5 and the limit sliding groove 4. The shielding member 6 and the fixed shell 1 cooperate to shield and protect the socket panel 3.

[0036] The working principle and usage process of the present utility model: When the present utility model is in use, the fixed shell 1 is installed and fixed on the outer surface of the socket panel 3, and the shielding member 6 is installed on the surface of the socket panel 3 through the sliding connection structure between the limit sliding block 5 and the limit sliding groove 4. The shielding member 6 and the fixed shell 1 cooperate to shield and protect the socket panel 3. Under the elastic force of the first spring 26 inside the through groove 25, the clamping block 27 is inserted into the clamping ring 23 to close and position the shielding member 6. Pressing the button 21 drives the clamping block 27 to move through the connecting block 24. After the clamping block 27 is separated from the clamping ring 23, the shielding member 6 will automatically fall and open under the action of gravity. Pushing up the shielding member 6 to abut against the side inclined plane of the clamping block 27 can cause the clamping block 27 to automatically retract to facilitate closing the shielding member 6. The opening and closing operation of the shielding member 6 is simple and the usage effect is better. Rotating the bolt 221, under the meshing connection between the bolt 221 and the threaded groove 223, the bolt 221 can drive the limit sliding block 5 to separate from the shielding member 6 through the positioning block 222, facilitating the replacement of the damaged shielding member 6, thereby making the protection effect on the socket better. The anti-touch shell 71 is installed and fixed on the outer side of the socket panel 3. Under the elastic force of the second spring 74 inside the frame 75, the blocking block 73 can block the jack 76, preventing electric shock caused by children playing, thereby improving the safety of using the socket. The frame 75 and the baffle 72 cooperate with the inclined plane of the blocking block 73, and the blocking block 73 will automatically open when the plug is inserted for easy use of the socket.
