[0033] The other end of the electric track 15 is installed on the other side of the inner wall of the housing 1. The electric track 15 is divided into positive and negative poles, and the positive and negative poles on the movable frame 17 can be in contact to realize power supply. The first baffle 13 corresponds to the position of the second mounting port 20 located above, and the second baffle 14 corresponds to the position of the first mounting port 18 located below. The slide rod 16 passes through the slide hole 19 and can assist the movable frame 17 in position adjustment. The sealing head 3 can increase the sealing and connection stability. The electric track 15 is connected to the wire 4. The first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 are installed in a staggered manner. The contact position of the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 is provided with soft material to increase the connection sealing. At the same time, the side of the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 that contacts the housing 1 is also provided with soft material to increase the sealing without affecting the movement of the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14.

[0034] A control switch 5 is installed on the top of the mounting housing 2, and an indicator light 6 is installed on the top of the mounting housing 2.

[0035] Indicator light 6 can indicate whether the electric rail 15 is energized, and control switch 5 can manually control the energization and de-energization.

[0036] The bottom of the housing 1 is equipped with a mounting base 10, the mounting base 10 includes a mounting plate 101, and mounting holes 106 are provided on the top of the mounting plate 101 near the four corners.

[0037] The mounting hole 106 is for easy bolting to pass through and install the mounting plate 101 in the corresponding position. The mounting plate 101 can also be fixed in the corresponding position with double-sided tape.

[0038] The top of the mounting plate 101 is equipped with a mounting buckle 102, and the front of the mounting buckle 102 is threaded with a fixing bolt 103.

[0039] The mounting buckle 102 has openings on the back and top to facilitate the insertion of the locking block 104. The fixing bolt 103 is used to fix the locking block 104 after it is inserted into the mounting buckle 102, thereby increasing stability.

[0040] The mounting buckle 102 has a locking block 104 installed inside, and a fixing plate 105 is fixedly connected to the top of the locking block 104;

[0041] The top of the fixing plate 105 is connected to the bottom of the housing 1 by double-sided tape, and the front of the clip 104 has a hole for threaded connection with the fixing bolt 103.

[0044] The working principle of the adjustable socket spacing power strip provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0045] An electric track 15 and two slide rods 16 are installed inside the housing 1. Then, multiple insert plates 11 are installed on the outer surfaces of the electric track 15 and slide rods 16 via a movable frame 17. This allows the spacing of the insert plates 11 to be adjusted on the outer surfaces of the electric track 15 and slide rods 16. Each insert plate 11 has two first mounting ports 18 and two mounting ports 20 on its two sides. Then, a first baffle 13 and a second baffle 14 are installed in a staggered manner in the first mounting ports 18 and the second mounting ports 20 on the adjacent sides of the two insert plates 11. This ensures that when the spacing of the insert plates 11 is adjusted, the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 will block the space between the two insert plates 11, increasing the sealing performance. In actual operation, when the spacing of the insert plates 11 needs to be adjusted, simply press the insert plate 11 whose position needs to be adjusted. This will cause the movable frame 17 to slide on the outer surfaces of the electric track 15 and slide rods 16. At the same time, the staggered first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 will gradually separate and gradually overlap, thus ensuring that the space between the two insert plates 11 remains sealed.

[0046] Compared with related technologies, the adjustable socket spacing power strip provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0047] To allow the spacing of the sockets 11 on the power strip to be adjusted as needed, an electrical track 15 and two sliding rods 16 are installed inside the housing 1. Then, multiple sockets 11 are simply mounted on the outer surfaces of the electrical track 15 and sliding rods 16 via a movable frame 17, allowing the spacing of the sockets 11 to be adjusted on the energized outer surfaces of the track 15 and sliding rods 16. Each socket 11 has two first mounting ports 18 and two mounting ports 20 on its two sides. Then, a first baffle 13 and a second baffle 14 are installed in a staggered manner in the first mounting ports 18 and 20 on adjacent sides of two sockets 11. This ensures that when adjusting the spacing of the sockets 11, the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 block the space between the two sockets 11, increasing the sealing performance. This design uses the electrical track 15 instead of traditional wiring connections, making it easier to adjust the spacing between the sockets 11. Simultaneously, the first baffle 13 and the second baffle 14 ensure the sealing between the two sockets 11, thereby improving the usability of the power strip.
