Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of power sockets, and in particular to a double-sided power socket. Background Art

[0002] As the cornerstone of power transmission and distribution systems, the power socket's development has closely tracked the electrical age. With the rapid advancement and widespread application of power technology, the power socket has become deeply integrated into every corner of modern society, becoming an indispensable component in supporting the power needs of homes, offices, and industries. More than just a gateway for power flow, it continues to evolve with the wave of intelligent technology, bringing unprecedented convenience and safety to people's lives and work.

[0003] Among the many power socket designs, three-pin sockets are widely favored for their versatility and safety. A three-pin socket typically consists of a housing, a removable cover, and an electrical assembly within the housing. The electrical assembly includes a socket core and terminal blocks. The upper side of the cover is provided with a plurality of sockets facing the socket core. The terminal blocks connect the power cord to the socket core, transmitting power from the power cord to the socket core. A three-prong plug connects to the electrical device via a cable. The plug is inserted into the sockets on the cover to electrically connect to the socket core, thereby supplying power to the connected device.

[0004] In practical applications, it's common for power outlets to be placed on the floor or a table, with the sockets naturally facing upward. When a three-prong plug is inserted into one of these sockets to connect to an electrical device typically placed above the outlet, a significant technical issue arises: a significant bend often forms at the connection between the three-prong plug and the cable.

[0005] This cable bending, with frequent use and over time, can gradually increase stress concentration at the connection between the cable and the three-pin plug. Over time, the cable insulation can easily wear out or even break at this point, exposing the conductive components within. This not only affects the efficiency and stability of power transmission but, more critically, can lead to safety hazards such as short circuits and electric shock, posing a serious threat to user safety. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide a double-sided power socket to solve the problem in the above-mentioned related art that during the use of the power socket, the insulation of the cable connected to the corresponding plug may be damaged when it is plugged in.

The socket panel has a plurality of sockets, and the distance between the two socket panels decreases in the direction away from the base plate.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the socket is plugged into the power socket, due to the inclined setting of the socket panel, the plug is inserted into the socket on the inclined socket panel, thereby reducing the possibility of excessive bending of the cable connected to the plug, and further reducing the possibility of damage to the insulation skin at the connection between the cable and the plug.

[0014] Optionally, a plurality of positioning protrusions are fixedly provided on the inner wall of the shell cover facing the bottom plate, and a positioning notch for inserting the positioning protrusions is formed on the limit retaining ring.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, due to the matching setting of the positioning protrusion and the positioning notch, when the jack panel is installed, a part of the positioning protrusion is inserted into the corresponding positioning notch, thereby further improving the installation stability of the jack panel.

[0016] Optionally, a guiding slope is provided on the end edge of the limiting protrusion away from the bottom plate.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting protrusion can better abut against the side surface of the limiting retaining ring along the guiding inclined surface.

[0018] Optionally, a reinforcing rib is fixed on the side surface of the limiting protrusion, and the bottom side of the reinforcing rib is fixed on the bottom plate.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the installation stability of the limiting protrusion and the base plate is improved.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with all the accompanying drawings.

[0041] Example 1:

[0042] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A double-sided power socket includes a shell cover 1, an electrical component 3 located inside the shell cover 1, and a bottom plate 2 provided on the bottom side of the shell cover 1, wherein the bottom plate 2 and the shell cover 1 are fixedly connected by screws; the two opposite side surfaces of the shell cover 1 are inclined mounting surfaces 11;

[0043] A jack panel 4 is fixed on the inclined mounting surface 11, and three groups of jacks are provided on the jack panel 4. The distance between the two jack panels 4 decreases in the direction away from the base plate 2. When the socket is plugged into the power socket, the plug is inserted into the jack on the inclined jack panel 4.

[0044] Reference Figure 2 The electrical assembly 3 includes an overload protector, terminal blocks, and a corresponding plug for the socket. When the circuit connected to the power outlet is overloaded, or when the electrical load in the outlet exceeds its maximum capacity, the overload protector automatically detects this change and, if necessary, cuts off the power supply to prevent damage to the appliance and the outlet from overheating. This is a typical internal structure of an outlet and will not be described in detail here.

[0045] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 A limit retaining ring 41 is integrally formed on the outer periphery of the jack panel 4, and a mounting opening 12 for the jack panel 4 to be inserted and fixed is opened on the inclined mounting surface 11 of the shell cover 1; when the jack panel 4 is installed on the shell cover 1, one side of the limit retaining ring 41 on the jack panel 4 abuts against the inner edge of the mounting opening 12.

[0046] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A limit baffle 13 is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the shell cover 1 away from the bottom plate 2, and a limit slot 131 for inserting the limit retaining ring 41 is provided between the limit baffle 13 and the inner edge of the mounting opening 12; and a plurality of limit protrusions 21 are integrally formed on the side of the bottom plate 2 facing the shell cover 1, and one side of the limit protrusion 21 abuts against one side of the limit retaining ring 41;

[0047] When the jack panel 4 is installed on the shell cover 1, the upper limit ring 41 is inserted into the limit slot 131, and one side of the lower limit ring 41 abuts against one side of the limit protrusion 21, thereby achieving the installation and fixation of the jack panel 4.

[0048] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5 A guiding slope 211 is provided on the end edge of the limiting protrusion 21 away from the bottom plate 2, so that the limiting protrusion 21 can better abut the side of the limiting retaining ring 41 along the guiding slope 211; a reinforcing rib 22 is fixed on the side of the limiting protrusion 21, and the bottom side of the reinforcing rib 22 is fixed to the upper side of the bottom plate 2, thereby improving the installation stability of the limiting protrusion 21 and the bottom plate 2.

[0049] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 5A number of positioning protrusions 14 are fixed on the inner wall of the shell cover 1 facing the bottom plate 2, and a positioning notch 41 is opened on the lower part of the limit ring 41 for the positioning protrusion 14 to be inserted into. When the jack panel 4 is installed, a part of the positioning protrusion 14 is inserted into the corresponding positioning notch 411, thereby improving the installation stability of the jack panel 4.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A circuit board 5 for controlling the electrical components 3 is fixed inside the shell cover 1, and a control button 17 for controlling the circuit board 5 is provided on the outer surface of the shell cover 1; at the same time, a first interface 15 and a second interface 16 connected to the circuit board 5 are provided on the side of the shell cover 1 away from the bottom plate 2, wherein the first interface 15 is for a USB plug to be inserted and connected, and the second interface 16 is for a Type-C plug to be inserted and connected, thereby improving the practical performance of the power socket.

[0051] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 Two fixing holes 23 are provided on the outer surface of the bottom plate 2, and limiting notches 232 are provided on the inner walls of the fixing holes 23. A tightening ridge 231 is integrally formed on the inner edge of the limiting notch 232 away from the opening of the shell cover 1; due to the coordinated arrangement of the fixing holes 23 and the limiting notches 232, the power socket can be reversely fixed to the lower side of the desktop by screws. After the nut part of the screw is inserted into the fixing hole 23, the power socket is controlled to move as a whole so that the nut part of the screw is placed in the limiting notch 232. At the same time, due to the limitation of the tightening ridge 231, the possibility of the nut part coming out of the limiting notch 232 is reduced; in this way, the power socket is reversely fixed to the lower side of the desktop, saving application space.

[0052] The implementation principle of the embodiment of this application is:

[0053] Due to the inclined setting of the jack panel 4, when the socket is plugged into the power socket, the plug is inserted into the jack on the inclined jack panel 4, thereby reducing the possibility of excessive bending of the cable connected to the plug, and further reducing the possibility of damage to the insulation at the connection between the cable and the plug.
