[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of this utility model clearer, the utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] It should be noted that all uses of "first" and "second" in the embodiments of this utility model are for the purpose of distinguishing two entities or parameters with the same name but different names. It is clear that "first" and "second" are only for the convenience of expression and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this utility model. Subsequent embodiments will not explain this in detail.

[0031] The directional and positional terms used in this utility model, such as "up," "down," "front," "back," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," "top," "bottom," and "side," are merely for reference to the accompanying drawings. Therefore, the directional and positional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this utility model, and not for limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown in the embodiment of this utility model, a waterproof socket box includes a base 1, the base 1 having a mounting cavity 2 for accommodating a socket, the base 1 having a horizontally extending support platform 3 protruding away from the base 1 near its lower end, the upper surface of the support platform 3 forming an abutment plane 31 for abutting and limiting the plug, and the support platform 3 having at least one wire groove 32 for wires to pass through along the horizontal direction.

[0033] This design allows the support platform's contact surface to create a stable lower limit for the plug, and the platform occupies a small area of ​​the base, causing almost no interference with the plug's placement space. It can accommodate plugs of various sizes. The plug's wire is placed in the cable tray, and the plug can be inserted into the socket for immediate use. After use or when replacing the plug, it can be unplugged and placed on the support platform for immediate idleness. This design is convenient and flexible, and plug storage is easy. Multiple cable trays can be provided as needed; this embodiment specifically has three.

[0034] The inner side of the wire groove 32 is provided with a first anti-detachment structure to prevent the wire from detaching outward.

[0035] With this design, the first anti-detachment structure can ensure the stability of the connection between the wire and the wire groove during its up-and-down movement and plug insertion / removal. At the same time, it ensures the stability of the connection between the plug and the support platform when the plug is idle on the support platform, and prevents the plug from falling off due to problems with the wire.

[0036] The groove 32 includes a first groove portion 321 and a second groove portion 322 connected from near the base 1 to away from the base 1.

[0037] The first anti-detachment structure includes an anti-detachment protrusion 33 located between the first groove 321 and the second groove 322. The end of the second groove 322 closer to the seat 1 is end A, and the end of the first groove 321 away from the seat 1 is end B.

[0038] The width of end A is smaller than the width of end B, so that an anti-detachment protrusion 33 protrudes from the horizontal center of the groove 32 between the two.

[0039] This design provides a simple anti-detachment protrusion structure that effectively prevents the wire from coming loose. The smooth transition between the first groove and the anti-detachment protrusion minimizes damage to the wire surface.

[0040] The end of the second groove 322 away from the seat 1 is the C end, and the width of the second groove 322 increases from the A end to the C end.

[0041] This design makes it easier to insert the wires into the first slot.

[0042] It also includes a waterproof cover 4 that is adapted to the size of the base 1. The waterproof cover 4 is hinged to the base 1 and rotates along the hinge axis to approach the base 1 to cover the socket.

[0043] The waterproof cover 4 is provided with a first locking structure, and the base 1 is provided with a second locking structure corresponding to the position of the first locking structure. The waterproof cover 4 rotates along the hinge axis to have a first covered state in which it covers the base 1 and the first locking structure is connected to the second locking structure, and a first open state in which it moves away from the base 1 and the first locking structure is disconnected from the second locking structure.

[0044] This design ensures the stability of the waterproof cover's connection to the base, thereby improving sealing, providing a tight waterproof seal, and enhancing safety. The first and second locking mechanisms can be connected via snap-fit ​​or magnetic attachment, ensuring connection stability while providing convenient opening and closing.

[0045] The second locking structure is connected to the lower end of the supporting platform 3.

[0046] This design ensures the stability of the connection between the waterproof cover and the base, facilitates opening and closing, and simplifies the structure.

[0047] The second locking structure includes a locking block 34 located at the lower end of the supporting platform 3, and the first locking structure includes a locking block 41 located on the inner wall below the waterproof cover 4. The lower end of the locking block 34 has a locking groove 341 that corresponds to and cooperates with the locking block 41. The locking block 41 and / or the locking block 34 have a certain elasticity, so that when the waterproof cover 4 is in the first closed state, the locking block 41 is located inside the locking groove 341, and when the waterproof cover 4 is in the first open state, the locking block 41 is located outside the locking groove 341.

[0048] The locking block 41 is specifically a circular protrusion, and the outer end of the locking block 34 is specifically a slope that slopes inward from top to bottom, thereby reducing the opening and closing resistance of the locking structure and making the operation smoother.

[0049] The depth of the locking block 34 increases from the outer end to the inner end, which reduces the opening and closing resistance of the locking structure while improving the connection stability.

[0050] The waterproof cover 4 is provided with a second wire groove 42, which is connected to the first wire groove 32 for wires to pass through. The second wire groove can be set with different lengths to accommodate the wire positions of plugs of various sizes.

[0051] The base 1 is provided with vertically extending connecting protrusions 5 on both sides near the horizontal direction. The mounting cavity 2 is located inside the two connecting protrusions 5. The outer side of the connecting protrusions 5 is provided with protruding ribs 51 that cooperate with the inner wall of the waterproof cover 4.

[0052] This design further enhances the stability of the connection between the waterproof cover and the base. The outer end of the rib 51 has a guide slope 511, thereby reducing the resistance to locking and unlocking.

[0053] The outer end face of the waterproof cover 4 is provided with several inclined protrusions and concave grooves located between any two adjacent protrusions.

[0054] The concave strip includes a first convex strip 61 disposed along a first direction D and a second convex strip 63 disposed along a second direction E. The concave strip groove includes a first concave strip groove 62 located between any two adjacent first convex strips 61 and a second concave strip groove 64 located between any two adjacent second convex strips 63. The first direction D and the second direction E form an angle of 70-110°.

[0055] Specifically, in this embodiment, it is set to 90°.

[0056] Each concave strip and groove forms a stripe group. The outer end face of the waterproof cover 4 is provided with an annular groove 43 around the stripe group, and the two ends of each concave groove are connected to the annular groove 43.

[0057] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent variations made in accordance with the claims of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
