Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a wall switch and a socket, in particular to an installation protection structure and an installation fixing structure. Background Art

[0002] A switch is an electronic component that can open a circuit, interrupt the current, or cause it to flow to another circuit. As people's quality of life requirements continue to improve, the requirements for product operating experience, and as the number of household appliances continues to increase, the demand and application of wall switches are becoming more and more extensive, especially the demand for wall switches. A "wall switch" refers to an electrical switch installed on the wall, used to connect and disconnect the circuit, and control the switch of the lighting. In a narrow sense, electrical products usually only refer to switches and sockets in building electrical systems. They usually include a switch base, internal functional parts, buttons or jacks. The internal functional parts are installed on the switch base, and the circuit is turned on or off by pressing the button. Existing wall switches usually include a mounting frame, a dark box and an internal functional module. The dark box is installed in the wall. The internal functional module is set on the base and then fixed to the bottom box through the mounting frame. Usually, a panel is also set on the mounting frame. Depending on the internal functional components and the panel, it can be divided into a plug-in board or a switch.

[0003] In actual use, the mounting bracket protrudes from the wall. Existing mounting brackets are typically over 10mm thick, affecting the overall aesthetic. Therefore, existing "wall switches" typically have the mounting bracket thinned, creating "thin-wall switches," typically reducing the thickness to around 6mm. However, during installation, since the mounting bracket is secured to the concealed cassette with screws, installers often use an electric screwdriver to tighten the screws until they stop. This can easily deform the thin wall of the "thin-wall switch" during installation, rendering the product inoperable. Therefore, existing thin-wall switches typically use metal brackets, enclose a metal bracket within a standard plastic component (PC), or utilize a PC and fiberglass composite material (the mounting bracket of standard switches is formed from a single-piece PC material) as the mounting bracket to prevent deformation during installation. This increases the cost of the mounting bracket and complicates the process. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to solve the problem in the background art that the existing bracket is easily deformed during installation, causing the product to fail, the utility model provides an installation protection structure and an installation fixing structure.

[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is: a mounting protection structure, comprising:

[0006] Mounting screws for connection;

[0007] A support sleeve, wherein the support sleeve is provided with a connection portion that is easy to open so as to separate the support sleeve radially;

[0008] The adjusting block is arranged on the support sleeve. The mounting screw passes through the adjusting block and the support sleeve. The mounting screw drives the adjusting block to move axially so that the adjusting block destroys the connecting part of the support sleeve, thereby causing the support sleeve to be stretched in the diameter direction of one end close to the adjusting block.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support sleeve is provided with a receiving portion, which is arranged on the outside of the connecting portion, and the adjustment block is provided with a pressing portion, which is arranged in the receiving portion and fits with the connecting portion.

[0010] As a further improvement of the present invention, the connecting portion is recessed in the radial direction of the support sleeve to form a notch groove, the accommodating portion is V-shaped, and the opening of the V-shaped accommodating portion faces outward, and the other end of the accommodating portion relative to the opening corresponds to the notch groove.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, there are multiple connecting parts, and different connecting parts are arranged at equal distances.

[0012] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support sleeve and the adjustment block are connected by means of the mutual cooperation of the clamping hole and the clamping block.

[0013] As a further improvement of the present invention, a material stealing groove is provided on the inner wall and / or outer wall of the regulating block.

[0014] As a further improvement of the present invention, a limiting portion is provided on the inner wall of the adjustment block, and the limiting portion abuts against the outer surface of the mounting screw.

[0015] As a further improvement of the present invention, the support sleeve is provided with a guide portion, and the adjustment block is provided with a guide inclined surface adapted to the guide portion.

[0016] As a further improvement of the present invention, there are at least two support sleeves, and the different support sleeves have a first state in which they are connected together along their axial direction to form a whole, and a second state in which they are separated to form independent individual support sleeves.

[0017] A mounting and fixing structure comprises a mounting plate, a mounting seat and the above-mentioned mounting protection structure, wherein the mounting plate is fixed on the mounting seat by mounting screws.

[0018] The beneficial effect of this utility model is that the support sleeve and adjustment block are provided. During the rotation of the mounting screw, the adjustment block can drive the axial movement of the support sleeve to damage the support sleeve, thereby acting as a buffer when the mounting screw is tightened, reducing the pressure on the mounting plate and preventing deformation of the mounting plate that affects product performance. The utility model also has the advantages of simple structure, easy assembly, reliable operation, and long service life. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] The following is a further description of the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0026] Depend on Figure 1 Combine Figure 2-5 As shown, a mounting protection structure includes:

[0027] Mounting screw 1, for connection;

[0028] The support sleeve 2 is provided with a connection portion 21 that is easy to open so as to separate the support sleeve 2 radially;

[0029] The adjustment block 3 is mounted on the support sleeve 2. The mounting screw 1 passes through the adjustment block 3 and the support sleeve 2. The mounting screw 1 drives the adjustment block 3 to move axially, causing the adjustment block 3 to break the connection portion 21 of the support sleeve 2, thereby expanding the support sleeve 2 in the diametrical direction of the end adjacent to the adjustment block 3. The beneficial effect of this utility model is that the support sleeve and adjustment block are provided. During the rotation of the mounting screw, the adjustment block can be driven to move axially to break the support sleeve, thereby providing a buffer when the mounting screw is tightened (especially when overtightened), reducing pressure on the mounting plate and preventing deformation of the mounting plate that could affect product performance. This utility model also has the advantages of simple structure, easy assembly, reliable operation, and long service life.

[0030] The support sleeve 2 is provided with a receiving portion 22, which is located outside the connecting portion 21. The adjustment block 3 is provided with a pressing portion 31, which is located within the receiving portion 22 and abuts against the connecting portion 21. The provision of the pressing portion allows for quick and easy destruction of the connecting portion, separating the upper portion of the support sleeve, providing a buffering effect, reducing pressure on the mounting plate, and preventing deformation of the mounting plate. Specifically, the pressing portion is conical or triangular in shape.

[0031] The connecting portion 21 is recessed in the radial direction of the support sleeve 2 to form a notch 23. The accommodating portion 22 is V-shaped, with the opening of the V-shaped accommodating portion 22 facing outward, and the other end of the accommodating portion 22 opposite the opening corresponds to the notch 23. This structure reduces the strength of the connecting portion, making it easier for the pressing portion to press and destroy the connecting portion, thereby facilitating the adjustment block to destroy the connecting portion when the mounting screw is tightened.

[0032] There are multiple connecting parts 21, and different connecting parts 21 are equidistantly arranged. This provides a reliable buffer force, avoids deformation of the mounting plate, and avoids excessive movement of the mounting screws.

[0033] The support sleeve 2 and the adjustment block 3 are connected by means of the engagement of the locking hole 24 and the locking block 32. This structure allows the support sleeve and the adjustment block to be integrated before installation, making it easy to handle and install. When the mounting screw is turned, the adjustment block can quickly and easily move axially to break the connection.

[0034] The inner wall and / or outer wall of the regulating block 3 are provided with a stealing groove 33. Such a structure is easy to process and reduces production costs.

[0035] The inner wall of the adjustment block 3 is provided with a stopper 34, which abuts against the outer surface of the mounting screw 1. The stopper can limit the mounting screw. This structure allows the adjustment block and the mounting screw to form an integrated structure before installation, making it easier to handle and install. Generally speaking, the stopper can be triangular in shape, which can provide greater resistance and facilitate a reliable connection between the adjustment block and the mounting screw. Of course, the stopper can also be set to a semi-arc shape.

[0036] The support sleeve 2 is provided with a guide portion 25, and the adjustment block 3 is provided with a guide inclined surface 35 adapted to the guide portion 25. Such a structure facilitates the movement of the adjustment block.

[0037] There are at least two support sleeves 2, and different support sleeves 2 have a first state in which they are connected together along their axial direction to form an integral body, and a second state in which they are separated to form independent individual support sleeves 2. Specifically, there are two support sleeves 2, and of course, there can also be three or four, etc. The two support sleeves 2 are connected together through a connecting column 26. The two support sleeves 2 have a first state in which they are connected through the connecting column 26, and a second state in which they are separated at the connecting column 26 to form two independent support sleeves 2. Of course, in the actual production process, different support sleeves can be quickly and conveniently assembled and disassembled by plugging or snapping. In this way, one or two support sleeves can be selected according to the depth of the dark box (mounting seat) in the wall and the position of the mounting plate. The support sleeves can be easily broken off, which is convenient to choose, making the product adaptable to a wide range of applications.

[0038] A mounting and fixing structure includes a mounting plate 4, a mounting base 5, and a mounting protective structure. The mounting plate 4 is fixed to the mounting base 5 via mounting screws 1. The mounting base is typically located within a wall, and the mounting plate serves as the product's panel. For example, in a wall switch, the mounting base can be a concealed box located within the wall, while the mounting plate serves as a frame. Internal functional components can be installed on the frame as needed, and a panel can be installed on the frame, with a switch button installed on the panel. Adjusting the internal functional components and providing jacks on the panel can allow the switch to function as a wall outlet. The panel can also be provided with jacks and a switch button.
