Technical Field

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

[0002] As we all know, most electrical equipment is equipped with a plug that needs to be plugged into an outlet when in use. Electrical equipment is generally used indoors, but there are also cases where it needs to be used outdoors. For example, electrical equipment at construction sites almost always needs to be used outdoors. When holding banquets, concerts, and other various events outdoors, the electrical equipment also generally needs to be used outdoors.

[0003] However, the sealing performance of the socket in the prior art is poor. If it is used outdoors for a long time, water may easily enter, thereby affecting the safety during use. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the technical problems existing in the background technology, the utility model proposes a waterproof socket panel.

[0005] The technical solutions adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problems are as follows:

[0006] A waterproof socket panel includes a housing and a rotating cover mounted on the housing, wherein a connection socket for connecting a plug is disposed within the housing, a first sealing block is embedded in the housing, and a plurality of placement grooves for receiving power cords are formed on the first sealing block; a second sealing block is embedded in the rotating cover, and the second sealing block has a first elastic waterproof protrusion extending downward, and the first sealing block has a waterproof groove for receiving the first elastic waterproof protrusion;

[0007] When the shell and the rotating cover are closed, the first elastic waterproof protrusion abuts the upper surface of the power cord and is deformed and placed in the waterproof groove, and the shell is provided with a second elastic waterproof protrusion extending upward, the second elastic waterproof protrusion abuts the lower surface of the power cord and is staggered with the first elastic waterproof protrusion.

[0008] Preferably, a first fixing block is embedded in the shell, and a first clamping groove for clamping and fixing the power cord is formed on the first fixing block, and a mounting seat is provided on the rotating cover, and a second fixing block is slidably provided on the mounting seat, and a second fixing block is formed on the second fixing block. When the shell and the rotating cover are closed, the power cord is placed in the first clamping groove and the second clamping groove, and the first fixing block and the second fixing block are staggered and fitted. Through the above improvements, when the plug of the electrical appliance is inserted into the connection socket, the power cord part of the plug can be clamped into the first clamping groove of the first fixing block, and then the rotating cover can be closed so that the power cord is simultaneously clamped into the second clamping groove, and the first fixing block and the second fixing block are staggered and fitted, which greatly ensures the reliability of fixing the power cord, and the first clamping groove and the second clamping groove are simultaneously pressed against the power cord to prevent water from entering the interior of the shell, thereby greatly improving the waterproof performance.

[0009] Preferably, the second fixing block has sliding protrusions formed on both sides, the mounting seat has a sliding groove formed therein for the sliding protrusions to be inserted into, and the mounting seat is provided with an elastic element, one end of which abuts the second fixing block and the other end abuts the mounting seat, so that the second fixing block always has a downward movement tendency. With this improvement, the elastic element exerts downward pressure on the second fixing block, thereby improving the reliability of the second fixing block in securing the power cord.

[0010] Preferably, the sliding groove is arranged at an angle. Through the above improvement, since the sliding groove is arranged at an angle, when the second fixing block slides downward along the sliding groove, it will tilt, thereby increasing the tightness of the second fixing block and the first fixing block, preventing water from flowing into the housing through the gap between the second fixing block and the first fixing block, and further improving the waterproofness and sealing performance.

[0011] Preferably, the outer periphery of the housing is provided with a sealing groove, the first sealing block is partially inserted into the sealing groove, and the rotating cover is formed with a pressing protrusion, which abuts the first sealing block. With the above improvement, when the rotating cover is fitted onto the housing, the pressing protrusion on the rotating cover is inserted into the sealing groove and presses the first sealing block, thereby enhancing the waterproofness of the outer contour of the housing and the rotating cover.

[0012] Preferably, a connecting groove is formed on the rotating cover, and a connecting protrusion is formed on the housing. A sealing ring is disposed in the connecting groove, and when the housing and the rotating cover are closed, the connecting protrusion is inserted into the connecting groove and abuts the sealing ring. With the above improvement, when the rotating cover and the housing are closed, the connecting protrusion on the housing is inserted into the connecting groove, pressing the sealing ring and cooperating with the sealing groove to achieve a double waterproof seal, significantly improving the sealing performance.

[0013] Preferably, the rotating cover is provided with a plurality of engaging hooks, and the housing is formed with engaging protrusions, the engaging hooks engaging with the engaging protrusions to enable the housing and the rotating cover to be covered. With the above improvement, after the rotating cover and the housing are covered, the engaging hooks can be rotated to engage with the engaging protrusions, thereby ensuring the reliable covering of the rotating cover and the housing. The rotating cover is opened under the influence of external force, causing water to enter the interior.

[0014] Preferably, an arc-shaped positioning groove is formed on the second sealing block, and when the housing and the rotating cover are covered, the arc-shaped positioning groove fits in with the top of the power cord. Through the above improvement, the arc-shaped positioning groove fits in with the top of the power cord, further improving the stability of the power cord fixation.

[0015] Preferably, a limiting protrusion is formed on the housing, and the limiting protrusion abuts against the second fixed block to limit the rotation of the second fixed block. Through the above improvement, since the sliding groove is arranged at an angle, when the second fixed block slides downward along the sliding groove, it will tilt. After the second fixed block slides to a certain position, the limiting protrusion abuts against the second fixed block. Under the action of the limiting protrusion, the lower half of the second fixed block is brought close to the squeezed first fixed block, further improving the tightness of the fit between the first and second fixed blocks.

[0016] Preferably, the snap hook fits the outer contour of the power cord, and a water-guiding arc surface is formed on the snap hook. Through the above improvements, the water-guiding arc surface can guide water to prevent water from entering the housing, thereby improving the waterproof performance.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0018] A first sealing block is embedded in the shell, and a placement groove for the power cord is provided on the first sealing block, and a second sealing block is embedded in the rotating cover. The second sealing block has a first elastic waterproof protrusion extending downward, and a waterproof groove for the first elastic waterproof protrusion to be placed is formed on the first sealing block. When the shell and the rotating cover are covered, the first elastic waterproof protrusion will squeeze the upper surface of the power cord, and as the first elastic waterproof protrusion is deformed, the first elastic waterproof protrusion will be partially placed in the waterproof groove. At the same time, the second elastic waterproof protrusion on the shell will squeeze the lower surface of the power cord, and the first elastic waterproof protrusion and the second elastic waterproof protrusion are staggered and fitted together, thereby avoiding water from flowing into the interior of the shell from the gap between the power cord, the shell and the cover, greatly improving the sealing, so as to improve the waterproof performance of the socket.

[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] It should be understood that although terms such as upper, middle, lower, top, end, etc. appear in this document to describe various elements, these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish elements from each other for ease of understanding, and are not used to define any direction or order limitation.

[0028] like Figure 1-6As shown, a waterproof socket panel includes a shell 1 and a rotating cover 2 on the rotating shell 1, a connecting socket 3 for connecting a plug is provided in the shell 1, a first sealing block 1.1 is embedded in the shell 1, and a plurality of placement grooves 1.2 for placing a power cord 4 are formed on the first sealing block 1.1, a second sealing block 1.3 is embedded in the rotating cover 2, and the second sealing block 1.3 has a first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 extending downward, and a waterproof groove 1.5 for placing the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 is formed on the first sealing block 1.1.

[0029] Specifically, when the shell 1 is covered with the rotating cover 2, the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 abuts the surface of the power cord 4 and is deformed and placed in the waterproof groove 1.5, and the shell 1 has a first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 extending upward, the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 abuts the surface of the power cord 4 and is staggered with the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4.

[0030] During the use of the socket panel, when the shell 1 and the rotating cover 2 are closed, the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 will squeeze the upper surface of the power cord 4, and as the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 deforms, the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 will be partially placed in the waterproof groove 1.5. At the same time, the second elastic waterproof protrusion 1.6 on the shell 1 will squeeze the lower surface of the power cord 4, and the first elastic waterproof protrusion 1.4 and the second elastic waterproof protrusion 1.6 are staggered and fitted together, thereby preventing water from flowing into the interior of the shell 1 from the gap between the power cord 4 and the shell 1 and the cover, greatly improving the sealing, so as to improve the waterproof performance of the socket.

[0031] like Figure 1-5 As shown, further explanation of how the shell 1 and the rotating cover 2 fix the power cord 4 is provided. A first fixing block 2.1 is embedded in the shell 1, and a first clamping groove 2.2 for clamping and fixing the power cord 4 is formed on the first fixing block 2.1. A mounting seat 2.3 is provided on the rotating cover 2, and a second fixing block 2.4 is slidably provided on the mounting seat 2.3. A second clamping groove 2.5 is formed on the second fixing block 2.4. When the shell 1 and the rotating cover 2 are closed, the power cord 4 is placed in the first clamping groove 2.2 and the second clamping groove 2.5, and the first fixing block 2.1 and the second fixing block 2.4 are staggered and fitted together.

[0032] When the plug of the electrical appliance is inserted into the connection socket 3, the power cord 4 of the plug can be partially inserted into the first clamping groove 2.2 of the first fixing block 2.1, and then the rotating cover 2 can be closed to make the power cord 4 synchronously inserted into the second clamping groove 2.5, and the first fixing block 2.1 and the second fixing block 2.4 are staggered and fitted together, which greatly ensures the reliability of fixing the power cord 4, and the first clamping groove 2.2 and the second clamping groove 2.5 are synchronously pressed against the power cord 4 to prevent water from entering the interior of the housing 1, thereby greatly improving the waterproof performance.

[0033] Specifically, sliding protrusions 3.1 are formed on both sides of the second fixing block 2.4, and a sliding groove 3.2 for the sliding protrusion 3.1 to be placed is formed on the mounting seat 2.3. An elastic element 3.3 is provided on the mounting seat 2.3. One end of the elastic element 3.3 abuts the second fixing block 2.4, and the other end abuts the mounting seat 2.3, so that the second fixing block 2.4 always has a downward movement trend.

[0034] Since the elastic element 3.3 generates downward pressure on the second fixing block 2.4, the reliability of the second fixing block 2.4 fixing the power line 4 is improved.

[0035] In addition, the sliding groove 3.2 is set at an angle. When the second fixed block 2.4 slides downward along the sliding groove 3.2, it will tilt, thereby increasing the tightness of the fit between the second fixed block 2.4 and the first fixed block 2.1, preventing water from flowing into the shell 1 through the gap between the second fixed block 2.4 and the first fixed block 2.1, and further improving the waterproofness and sealing.

[0036] Furthermore, an arc-shaped positioning groove 2.6 is formed on the second sealing block 1.3. When the housing 1 and the rotating cover 2 are closed, the arc-shaped positioning groove 2.6 fits against the top of the power cord 4, further improving the stability of fixing the power cord 4.

[0037] Preferably, a limiting protrusion 3.9 is formed on the housing 1. Since the sliding groove 3.2 is arranged at an angle, when the second fixing block 2.4 slides downward along the sliding groove 3.2, it will tilt. After the second fixing block 2.4 slides to a certain position, the limiting protrusion 3.9 abuts against the second fixing block 2.4. Under the action of the limiting protrusion 3.9, the lower half of the second fixing block 2.4 is brought close to the squeezed first fixing block 2.1, further improving the tightness of the fit between the first fixing block 2.1 and the second fixing block 2.4.

[0038] like Figure 1-5 As shown, as a further explanation of the cooperation between the shell 1 and the rotary cover 2, a sealing groove 3.4 is provided on the outer ring of the shell 1, and the first sealing block 1.1 is partially placed in the sealing groove 3.4, and an extrusion protrusion 3.5 is formed on the rotary cover 2, and the extrusion protrusion 3.5 abuts against the first sealing block 1.1.

[0039] When the rotary cover 2 is fitted with the housing 1 , the extrusion protrusion 3.5 on the rotary cover 2 is inserted into the sealing groove 3.4 and squeezes the first sealing block 1.1 , thereby increasing the waterproofness of the outer contour of the housing and the rotary cover 2 .

[0040] Furthermore, a connecting groove 3.6 is formed on the rotating cover 2, and a connecting protrusion 3.7 is formed on the shell 1. A sealing ring 3.8 is provided in the connecting groove 3.6. When the shell 1 and the rotating cover 2 are covered, the connecting protrusion 3.7 is placed in the connecting groove 3.6 and abuts against the sealing ring 3.8.

[0041] When the rotating cover 2 is fitted over the housing 1, the connecting protrusion 3.7 on the housing 1 is inserted into the connecting groove 3.6, squeezing the sealing ring 3.8 and cooperating with the sealing groove 3.4 to achieve double sealing and waterproofing, greatly improving the sealing performance.

[0042] In addition, a plurality of snap-fit hooks 4.1 are provided on the rotating cover 2, and a snap-fit protrusion 4.2 is formed on the shell 1. The snap-fit hooks 4.1 are snap-fitted with the snap-fit protrusion 4.2. When the rotating cover 2 is closed with the shell 1, the snap-fit hooks 4.1 can be rotated to snap-fit with the snap-fit protrusion 4.2, thereby ensuring the reliability of the closing of the rotating cover 2 with the shell 1. The rotating cover 2 is opened under the influence of external force, causing water to enter the interior.

[0043] like Figure 6 As shown, in some other embodiments, the snap hook 4.1 fits the outer contour of the power cord 4, and a water-guiding arc surface 4.3 is formed on the snap hook 4.1.

[0044] During use, the water-guiding arc surface 4.3 can guide water to prevent water from entering the interior of the housing 1, thereby improving the waterproof performance.

[0045] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by patent law.
