[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of power sockets, in particular to a socket with a spring buckle which can be quickly installed. Background technology:
[0002] A socket, also known as an AC power outlet, connects a plug to a powered device. With the development of society and advancement of technology, people are pursuing a simpler and more comfortable life. To meet these needs, various electrical products have emerged, and sockets have gradually become a necessity. Power sockets are electrical devices that provide power interfaces for various electrical appliances. They are not only a common electrical accessory in residential electrical design, but also an indispensable electrical accessory in industrial electrical design. They are closely related to people's lives.
[0003] At present, some sockets on the market, such as: the Chinese utility model patent application with patent publication number CN 206379566 U discloses an anti-drop and plug-resistant three-level power socket, which includes: a plastic shell, an end cover and a plug, the outer surface of the plastic shell is provided with a latch, the latch is arranged at intervals on the outer surface of the plastic shell, and a spring piece is further provided on one side of the plastic shell, the latch and the spring piece are fixedly connected to the plastic shell and form an integrated structure, the latch and the spring piece are arranged opposite to each other on both sides of the plastic shell, the inner cavity of the plastic shell is provided with a latch groove, the latch is fixedly installed inside the latch groove, and the latch consists of a short latch and a long latch; wherein, the plastic shell, the end cover and the plug are integrally injection molded by an injection molding process, the outer surfaces of the end cover and the plastic shell are smooth, without scratches or wear, the latch cooperates with the spring piece to realize the overall clamping of the plastic shell, ensuring the stability of the local connection, and the plug is arranged perpendicular to the latch groove, ensuring that the short latch and the long latch are easy to plug and unplug, not easy to loosen or fall off, and the connection is good and remains effective for a long time.
[0004] However, this existing power socket still has the following disadvantages:
[0005] 1. In this technical solution, the plastic shell, end cover and latch are integrally injection molded using an injection molding process, and the overall clamping of the plastic shell is achieved by means of latch teeth and spring pieces. The latch teeth and spring pieces need to be made of more expensive elastic materials, and the latch teeth and spring pieces are integrally molded with the plastic shell, which makes the cost of the plastic shell higher and causes a waste of elastic material resources.

The second elastic buckle 22 includes a second elastic portion 221 that is elastic and can be elastically deformed, and a second buckle portion 222 integrally formed with the second elastic portion 221. The first elastic buckle 21 and the second elastic buckle 22 are arranged in an "eight" shape, making them easier to engage. Furthermore, the first elastic buckle 21 and the second elastic buckle 22 are respectively protruded with a first protrusion 32 and a second protrusion 42, which provide greater stability and effectively enhance ease of use.
[0029] The guide plate 3 includes: a main body section 301, an inserting section 302 integrally formed with the main body section 301 and extending into the first plug hole 11, and a connecting section 303 integrally formed with the main body section 301 and inserted into the guide plate hole 201, wherein a connecting hole 304 is opened on the connecting section 303 for easy connection, and the inserting section 302 is bent.
[0030] The grounding plate 4 includes: a main body section 401, a bent section 402 integrally formed with the main body section 401 and extending into the second plug hole 12, and a grounding section 403 integrally formed with the main body section 401 and passing through the avoidance groove 202, wherein a grounding hole 404 is opened on the grounding section 403.
[0031] The lower housing 1 is provided with at least two first mounting locations 13 for mounting the conductive contact 3, and at least one second mounting location 14 for mounting the grounding plate 4. The first mounting locations 13 are connected to the first jack 11, and the second mounting location 14 is connected to the second jack 12. When the conductive contact 3 is mounted in the first mounting location 13, the plug section 302 of the conductive contact 3 extends into the first jack 11. When the grounding plate 4 is mounted in the second mounting location 14, the bent section 402 of the grounding plate 4 extends into the second jack 12, facilitating connection of an external plug.
[0032] A first positioning groove 131 for limiting the conductive plate 3 is defined in the first installation position 13 ; a second positioning groove 141 for limiting the grounding plate 4 is defined in the second installation position 14 .
[0033] The guiding piece 3 is formed with a first extension portion 31 that can match and slide into the first positioning groove 131, and a first protrusion portion 32 is protruding from the first extension portion 31. The first protrusion portion 32 abuts against the inner wall of the first positioning groove 131 to limit the guiding piece 3 in the lower shell 1; the grounding piece 4 is formed with a second extension portion 41 that can match and slide into the second positioning groove 141, and a second protrusion portion 42 is protruding from the second extension portion 41. The second protrusion portion 42 abuts against the inner wall of the second positioning groove 141 to limit the grounding piece 4 in the lower shell 1. Here, compared with the existing structure, the present invention provides a first extension portion 31 and a first protrusion 32 on the conductive plate 3. After the conductive plate 3 is installed in the first installation groove 13, the first protrusion 32 will abut against the inner wall of the first positioning groove 131, so that the conductive plate 3 is confined in the first installation groove 13. It needs to be removed in the vertical direction and with a certain force, so as to avoid the conductive plate 3 being pushed by the external plug during use and causing accidental sliding, resulting in poor contact; the grounding plate 4 is similar, and will not be described in detail here.

[0035] The guide plate 3 is provided with a first barb 305 for contacting the upper cover 2; the grounding plate 4 is provided with a second barb 405 for contacting the upper cover 2. Here, the first barb 305 and the second barb 405 serve to axially limit the guide plate 3 and the grounding plate 4, respectively, to prevent the guide plate 3 and the grounding plate 4 from sliding excessively.
[0036] The upper cover 2 is mounted on the lower shell 1 by a first screw 5 ; a screw hole 15 is provided on the lower shell 1 , and correspondingly, a through hole 25 is provided on the upper cover 2 , and the first screw 5 passes through the through hole 25 and is screwed into the screw hole 15 .
[0037] In summary, in the present invention, the volume of the upper cover 2 is much smaller than that of the lower shell 1. The first elastic clip 21 and the second elastic clip 22 for elastic snap connection are both provided on the upper cover 2. The lower shell 1 can be made directly from a more inexpensive non-elastic material, which does not cause elastic material to be wasted. This can greatly reduce the use of elastic material, save costs, and optimize production management. In addition, compared with the existing structure, the first elastic clip 21 and the second elastic clip 22 in the present invention are arranged in an eight-shaped pattern, which makes it easier to snap in during use, and the snap connection is stable and will not accidentally fall out. In addition, the first elastic clip 21 and the second elastic clip 22 are respectively protruded with a first protrusion 32 and a second protrusion 42, which further enhances stability and effectively enhances ease of use.
