Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a modular combination power strip. Background Technology

[0002] Existing power strip structures consist of a power strip housing made up of a front shell and a bottom shell, and a copper busbar located inside the power strip housing that connects to the power cord. The front shell has multiple sockets. During production, this type of structure requires different front shell designs and molds depending on the number and type of sockets. For example, European standard sockets and American standard sockets require different front shell designs. If a DC power port is needed, the front shell must be modified. This not only results in high mold costs and long production times, but also makes it difficult to standardize production specifications, leading to low production efficiency and structural compatibility.

[0027] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further illustrates the proposed solution:

[0028] Example 1

[0029] See appendix Figures 1 to 10The modular power strip includes a main body 1 and two socket modules 2 that can be installed on the main body. The main body 1 has a panel 11 with positioning holes 10 for the socket modules 2. Each socket module 2 has a side with a spring clip 21. The positioning hole 10 has an inner wall 12 extending into the main body 1, and a groove 13 on the inner wall 12 for engaging with the spring clip 21. Each socket module 2 has several socket holes on its front and contact electrodes 22 on its back. A contact copper sleeve 3 is located inside the main body 1 at a position corresponding to the positioning hole 10, for engaging with the contact electrode 22. When the socket module 2 is inserted into the positioning hole 10, the contact electrode 22 connects with the contact copper sleeve 3. During assembly, the socket module 2 is aligned with the positioning hole 10 and inserted into the spring clip 21, which then falls into the groove 13. The end of the spring clip 21 makes a "click" sound when it contacts the groove 13, indicating that the assembly is complete.

[0030] The socket module 2 includes an AC socket module 201 for AC power supply and a DC socket module 202 for DC power supply. The AC socket module 201 contains first power-connecting components 23 corresponding to each socket, with one end of each first power-connecting component 23 extending from the back of the AC socket module 201 to form a contact electrode 22. The AC socket module 201 also has a partition structure 24 for separating the first power-connecting components 23, thus placing each first power-connecting component 23 in an independent chamber separated by the partition structure to ensure electrical isolation performance. The DC socket module 202 contains a power board 25 for AC-DC power conversion. The power board 25 is connected to several DC power supply interfaces 26 corresponding to each socket, and second power-connecting components 27 for connecting to the power strip body 2 to draw power. One end of each second power-connecting component 27 extends from the back of the DC socket module 202 to form a contact electrode 22. The DC power supply interfaces 26 include USB interfaces, which include at least Type-A and Type-C interfaces.

[0031] Both the main body 1 and the socket module 2 of this utility model can be pre-produced in a standardized manner. At the factory, the corresponding socket module 2 is selected and installed according to the requirements of the current order for the type and quantity of sockets. This not only significantly improves production efficiency and reduces costs, but also avoids frequent redesigns of the main body 1, resulting in high structural compatibility. Alternatively, only the main body 1 can be modified according to appearance or structural requirements, avoiding redesigns of the socket module 2.

[0032] Furthermore, the power strip body 1 is provided with a plurality of fixed sockets 14, and a copper sleeve 4 is provided inside the power strip body 14 corresponding to each fixed socket 14. These fixed sockets 14 are the basic configuration of the power strip body 1. By adding a socket module 2, the capacity of the power strip body 1 can be expanded or the socket type can be selected. For example, in this embodiment, a set of AC sockets is expanded, and DC power output is also provided.

[0033] Considering the application of this product in offices, e-sports venues, etc., the power strip body 1 is connected to a fixing bracket 5 for clamping and fixing. The fixing bracket 5 includes a side-opening clamping part 51 and a pressure rod 52 that cooperates with the clamping part 51. The clamping part 51 includes a top plate 511, a bottom plate 512, and a vertical plate 513. The pressure rod 52 is a threaded rod that screws onto the bottom plate 512 of the clamping part 51 and cooperates with the top plate 511 to perform clamping. A pressing block 521 is provided at the top of the pressure rod 52, and a handle 522 is provided at the bottom of the pressure rod 52. The bottom of the power strip body 1 is provided with a connecting groove 15 for the top plate 511 of the fixing bracket 5 to be embedded. The connecting groove 15 is provided with a threaded countersunk hole. The top plate 511 is provided with several through holes, and the top plate 511 is connected and fixed to the power strip body 1 by screws.

[0034] In addition, the power strip body 1 has a panel 11 that is tilted upwards. The panel 11 is provided with the fixed socket 14 and the positioning hole 10. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the tilted panel 11 also makes it convenient for users to plug and unplug the power plug. At the same time, the back side of the power strip body 1 is also provided with several fixed sockets 14 to meet the needs of the number of power supply positions and to facilitate the placement of the power cord of the computer host.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] See appendix Figure 11 Based on Example 1, Example 2 is equipped with two AC socket modules 201, the purpose of which is to expand the capacity of the AC sockets.
