Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to an electric connector, in particular to a socket adapter for a track socket. Background Art

[0002] The track socket mainly consists of a power track and a socket adapter. The socket adapter is plugged into the power track and can be moved left and right along the power track. The number of socket adapters can also be increased or decreased according to user needs.

[0003] Patent document CN221102655U discloses a rotating socket adapter and a track socket. The technical solution employed is as follows: the adapter body comprises a housing, a panel, and a base plate. The housing includes a mounting plate, which is rotatably connected to the base plate. The mounting plate includes a fixed block for embedding and mounting the live and ground wire pins. The base plate has limit blocks on the bottom surface, located on either side of the fixed block. The limit blocks also include limit slots for retaining the live and component pins. Rotating the base plate allows the ground and live wire pins to be accommodated in the limit slots. This limit structure is relatively complex, and when rotating the adapter, the user can only rely on the rotation angle to confirm whether the adapter is electrically connected to the power track. Excessive rotation angles can easily damage the adapter, while too small rotation angles prevent electrical conduction, making it inconvenient for the user. Utility Model Content

It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein can be combined with each other unless there is any conflict.

[0025] It should be understood that these descriptions are only exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0026] Some embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 8A track socket adapter includes a fixed member and a rotating member. The rotating member includes a housing 1, within which an inner core 2 is mounted. The fixed member includes a conductive base 3, which comprises a base plate 31 and a conductive portion 32 located below the base plate 31 and adapted to extend into the interior of a power rail 14. The outer edge of the base plate 31 is provided with a plurality of continuously arranged tooth grooves 34, with positioning grooves 35 located at both ends of the tooth grooves 34. A spring piece 16 is mounted on the inner bottom of the housing 1, slidably connected to the tooth grooves 34. After assembly, the spring piece 16 is seated in the positioning grooves 35. The tooth grooves 34 and spring piece 16 are arranged between the rotating member and the fixed member. This design produces a click and a tactile sensation during rotation, enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, positioning grooves 35 are provided at both ends of the tooth grooves 34. When the spring piece 16 slides from one of the tooth grooves 34 to a positioning groove 35, a noticeable resistance is felt. This allows the user to sense the rotation limit, effectively preventing damage to the device caused by excessive rotation. This design facilitates user convenience.

[0028] The shell 1 is composed of a face cover 11 and a lower shell 12. The face cover 11 is provided with a socket opening 13; the lower shell 12 is provided with a rotating opening 15. The outer edge of the bottom plate 31 is provided with an annular skirt 33. The tooth groove 34 and the positioning groove 35 are located on the outer edge of the annular skirt 33. The diameter of the annular skirt 33 is larger than the diameter of the rotating opening 15. After assembly, the lower end of the annular skirt 33 abuts against the inner side of the bottom of the lower shell 12, so that the shell 1 is rotatably connected to the conductive seat 3.

[0029] In the present invention, the inner core 2 includes a connecting seat 21, and a rotating part 4 is installed on the lower side of the connecting seat 21. The rotating part 4 includes a rotating disk 41, a rotating shaft 42 extending downward from the center of the rotating disk 41, and a live wire fixing part 43 and a neutral wire fixing part 44 protruding to both sides from the lower side of the rotating shaft 42. A receiving groove 36 is provided in the conductive part 32. After assembly, the rotating disk 41 is located on the bottom plate 31, and the rotating shaft 42, the live wire fixing part 43 and the neutral wire fixing part 44 are located in the receiving groove 36, which facilitates the conductive part 32 to extend into the interior of the power rail 14.

[0030] As a further improvement of the present invention, the socket port 13 is a five-hole socket that complies with national standards. The upper side of the connecting seat 21 is provided with a live wire spring clip position 22, a neutral wire spring clip position 23 and a ground wire spring clip position 24 corresponding to the socket port 13. The live wire spring clip position 22, the neutral wire spring clip position 23 and the ground wire spring clip position 24 are respectively installed with a live wire spring clip 221, a neutral wire spring clip 231 and a ground wire spring clip 241; the live wire spring clip 221 is electrically connected to the live wire contact piece 25, and the neutral wire spring clip 231 is electrically connected to the neutral wire contact piece 26. The live wire contact piece 25 and the neutral wire contact piece 26 are respectively embedded in the rotating part 4 and extend to the outside of the live wire fixing part 43 and the neutral wire fixing part 44, respectively, to facilitate internal electrical connection with the power track.

[0031] In the present invention, a valve assembly 6 is installed on the live wire spring piece position 22, the neutral wire spring piece position 23 and the ground wire spring piece position 24. The valve assembly 6 is used for anti-electric shock protection and belongs to common technology.

[0032] As a further improvement to the present invention, ground contact portions 37 are installed at both ends of the conductive portion 32. The ground contact portions 37 extend upward and protrude from the base plate 31. An annular ground connection piece 38 is installed on the base plate 31. The two ends of the ground connection piece 28 extend inward and downward, electrically connecting to the two ground contact portions 37. The lower end of the ground spring piece 241 is provided with an outwardly extending extension portion 242. During the rotation of the rotating member, the extension portion 242 of the ground spring piece 241 makes sliding electrical contact with the ground connection piece 38. In addition, in this embodiment, two ground contact portions 37 are provided, and are located at both ends of the live contact piece 25 and the neutral contact piece 26. In this way, the distance between the ground contact portion 37 and the live contact piece 25 and the neutral contact piece 26 is greater, which is safer than when the ground contact portion is located between the live contact piece and the neutral contact piece.

[0033] In this embodiment, the rotating disk 41 is provided with a mirror-symmetrical sliding groove 45, with limiters 46 at each end of the sliding groove 45. Upon rotation, the two ends of the grounding connection plate 28 contact the limiters 46. During rotation, the rotating disk 41 rotates relative to the conductive base 3, and the grounding contact portion 37 on the base plate 31 slides on the sliding groove 45. The limiters 46 effectively prevent the user from damaging the device by excessive rotation.

[0034] In this embodiment, the cover 11 is provided with a first light-transmitting portion 17 and a second light-transmitting portion 18. The connecting base 21 is mounted with an LED light board 5 corresponding to the first and second light-transmitting portions 17, 18. The first light-transmitting portion 17 is shaped like an identification mark, while the second light-transmitting portion 18 is shaped like two mirror-symmetrical annular frames, enhancing the aesthetics.
