Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power strip technology, specifically to a power strip with a folding structure. Background Technology

[0002] A power strip, also known as a socket extender or extension cord, is a household appliance accessory primarily used to expand the number of power outlets, allowing multiple electrical devices to be connected simultaneously. It connects to a standard wall socket via a long power cord and then has multiple socket holes on its own, allowing multiple appliances to share the same power point. The flexibility and convenience of its design make power strips an indispensable part of modern life, and they can be seen everywhere, whether in homes, offices, or public places.

[0003] Traditional rigid power strips have gradually revealed their limitations, with prominent issues such as occupying desktop space and being inconvenient to carry. Therefore, a multifunctional, compact, and flexible folding power strip has been proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is as follows: to provide a power strip with a folding structure that is highly practical, easy to operate, and has a simple structure, thus solving the problems of occupying desktop space and being inconvenient to carry mentioned in the background art.

[0005] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] A power strip with a folding structure includes a main power strip, an auxiliary power strip hinged to the bottom of the main power strip, a limiting mechanism hinged to the bottom of the auxiliary power strip, a spring-loaded mechanism fixedly connected to the surfaces of both the main and auxiliary power strips, a protective cover fixedly connected to the surface of the spring-loaded mechanism, and a positioning mechanism fixedly connected to one edge of the protective cover. The limiting mechanism includes two connecting pieces hinged to the bottom of the auxiliary power strip, a magnet A fixedly connected to the surface of each connecting piece, and a magnet B magnetically connected to the surface of magnet A. The spring-loaded mechanism includes four fixed cylinders fixedly connected to the surfaces of the main and auxiliary power strips, a torsion spring fixedly connected to one side of each fixed cylinder, and a rotating cylinder fixedly connected to one side of each torsion spring. The positioning mechanism includes a positioning buckle fixedly connected to one edge of the protective cover, a positioning opening inside the positioning buckle, a positioning block inserted into the positioning opening, a limiting hole on the surface of the positioning block, and a limiting post inserted into the limiting hole.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the rotating cylinder is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed cylinder, and the protective cover is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating cylinder, so that the rotating cylinder can easily drive the protective cover to rotate.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the diameter of the positioning port is larger than the size of the positioning block, the positioning block is fixedly connected to the surface of the main power strip and the auxiliary power strip, the positioning port facilitates the connection of the positioning block, and rotating the protective cover will cause the positioning port to be inserted into the positioning block.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a connecting wire is installed on one side of the main power strip, and the end of the connecting wire is installed inside the auxiliary power strip. The connecting wire facilitates power supply to the main power strip and the auxiliary power strip, ensuring that the main power strip and the auxiliary power strip can be used normally.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the magnet B is fixedly connected to one side of the main power strip, and the surfaces of both the main power strip and the auxiliary power strip are provided with several socket holes. The magnet B is convenient to connect to the magnet A, thereby fixing the auxiliary power strip.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a wiring port is fixedly connected to one side of the main power strip, and a connecting wire is installed inside the wiring port to facilitate the connection of an external plug.

[0012] As a further embodiment of this utility model: two support pads are fixedly connected to the surface of the protective cover. The support pads are made of silicone and are designed to support the protective cover, thus preventing damage to the protective cover caused by external forces.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. With the auxiliary power strip and limiting mechanism, the length of the power strip can be adjusted according to needs during use. Pulling the connecting piece outward separates the two magnets A on the surface of the connecting piece from the magnet B on the main power strip. At this time, the auxiliary power strip at the bottom of the main power strip can be rotated to a suitable position using the hinge, thereby extending the power strip. Similarly, the main power strip and the auxiliary power strip can be folded together, and the magnets A and B can be used for limiting, thereby achieving the effect of folding the power strip. This makes it convenient for users to use in different scenarios and meets the needs of different users.

[0015] 2. With the addition of a spring-loaded mechanism, protective cover, and positioning mechanism, the protective covers on the surfaces of the main and auxiliary power strips can be closed when storing them, protecting the sockets inside the covers. Two positioning ports on one side edge of the protective cover are inserted into the positioning blocks at the bottom, and the positioning buckles on the surface of the positioning blocks are limited by the limiting pins. This achieves the effect of preventing dust and moisture from entering the sockets when the main and auxiliary power strips are not in use, preventing external dust and water vapor from entering the sockets and affecting the normal use of the power strips.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] like Figure 1-4As shown, a power strip with a folding structure includes a main power strip 1. An auxiliary power strip 2 is hinged to the bottom of the main power strip 1 via a hinge. A limiting mechanism 3 is hinged to the bottom of the auxiliary power strip 2. Through the auxiliary power strip 2 and the limiting mechanism 3, the length of the power strip can be adjusted as needed during use. Pulling the connecting piece 301 outwards separates the two magnets A302 on the surface of the connecting piece 301 from the magnet B303 on the main power strip 1. At this time, the auxiliary power strip 2 at the bottom of the main power strip 1 can be rotated to a suitable position using the hinge, thereby extending the power strip. Similarly, the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 can be extended. Folded together, the power strip is secured by magnets A302 and B303, achieving a folding effect for convenient use in different scenarios and meeting the needs of various users. Both the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 are fixedly connected to a spring-loaded mechanism 4. Through the spring-loaded mechanism 4, the protective cover 5, and the positioning mechanism 6, when storing the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2, the protective cover 5 on the surface of the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 can be closed, protecting the sockets inside the protective cover 5. The two positioning holes 602 on one side edge of the protective cover 5 are then inserted into the positioning block 60 at the bottom. In step 3, the positioning post 604 is used to limit the positioning buckle 601 on the surface of the insertion positioning block 603, thereby achieving the effect of dustproofing and moistureproofing the socket. This prevents the main power strip 1 and auxiliary power strip 2 from being placed randomly when not in use, which would allow external dust and water vapor to enter the socket and affect the normal use of the power strip. A protective cover 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the spring mechanism 4, and a positioning mechanism 6 is fixedly connected to one edge of the surface of the protective cover 5. The limiting mechanism 3 includes two connecting pieces 301 hinged to the bottom of the auxiliary power strip 2. A magnet A302 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting piece 301. 2 has a magnet B303 magnetically connected to its surface; the rebound mechanism 4 includes four fixed cylinders 401 fixedly connected to the surfaces of the main plug 1 and the auxiliary plug 2, a torsion spring 402 fixedly connected to one side of the fixed cylinder 401, and a rotating cylinder 403 fixedly connected to one side of the torsion spring 402; the positioning mechanism 6 includes a positioning buckle 601 fixedly connected to one edge of the surface of the protective cover 5, a positioning port 602 is opened inside the positioning buckle 601, a positioning block 603 is inserted into the positioning port 602, a limit hole is opened on the surface of the positioning block 603, and a limit post 604 is inserted into the limit hole;

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the rotating cylinder 403 is rotatably connected to the inside of the fixed cylinder 401, and the protective cover 5 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rotating cylinder 403. The rotating cylinder 403 facilitates the rotation of the protective cover 5.

[0025] like Figure 1As shown, the diameter of the positioning port 602 is larger than the size of the positioning block 603. The positioning block 603 is fixedly connected to the surface of the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2. The positioning port 602 facilitates the connection of the positioning block 603. Rotating the protective cover 5 will cause the positioning port 602 to be inserted into the positioning block 603.

[0026] like Figure 1 As shown, a connecting wire 7 is installed on one side of the main power strip 1. The end of the connecting wire 7 is installed inside the auxiliary power strip 2. The connecting wire 7 facilitates the power supply of the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2, ensuring that the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 can be used normally.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, magnet B303 is fixedly connected to one side of the main power strip 1. Both the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 have several sockets on their surfaces. Magnet B303 facilitates the connection of magnet A302 to fix the auxiliary power strip 2.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, a wiring port 8 is fixedly connected to one side of the main power strip 1. A connecting wire 9 is installed inside the wiring port 8, which facilitates the connection of an external plug.

[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, two support pads 10 are fixedly connected to the surface of the protective cover 5. The support pads 10 are made of silicone. The support pads 10 can support the protective cover 5 and prevent the protective cover 5 from being damaged by external forces.

[0030] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When in use, the length of the power strip can be adjusted according to the needs. Pull the connecting piece 301 outward to separate the two magnets A302 on the surface of the connecting piece 301 from the magnet B303 on the main power strip 1. At this time, the auxiliary power strip 2 at the bottom of the main power strip 1 can be rotated to a suitable position using the hinge, thereby extending the power strip. Similarly, the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 can be folded together and limited by the magnets A302 and B303.

[0031] When storing the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2, the protective cover 5 on the surface of the main power strip 1 and the auxiliary power strip 2 can be closed to protect the socket inside the protective cover 5. The two positioning holes 602 set on one side edge of the protective cover 5 are inserted into the positioning block 603 at the bottom, and the positioning buckle 601 inserted into the surface of the positioning block 603 is limited by the limiting post 604.

[0032] The above description provides a detailed account of one embodiment of the present invention. However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
