Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of safety socket technology, specifically to an electrical safety socket. Background Technology
[0002] Safety sockets are widely used in various locations requiring high safety standards, especially in homes with children. According to the "General Electrical Equipment Distribution Design Code" GB50055-2011, safety sockets should be installed in damp, hazardous locations, and areas specifically designated for children's activities. Furthermore, sockets in residential buildings below 1.8 meters in height should also be safety sockets to ensure children's safety.
[0003] An electrical safety socket is a socket specifically designed to improve electrical safety, featuring multiple protective functions to prevent electric shock, electric shock, and other electrical hazards. Its main features include:
[0004] Electric shock protection design: Safety sockets are usually equipped with protective shutters or covers to prevent fingers or other small objects from being inserted into the sockets. This design effectively prevents children from putting their fingers into the sockets, avoiding the risk of electric shock.
[0005] Overload protection: The safety socket has an overload protection function, which can automatically cut off the power supply when the current is too high, preventing electrical appliances from being damaged or causing a fire due to overload.
[0006] Leakage protection: Some safety sockets also have leakage protection, which can detect leakage and quickly cut off the power to ensure user safety. High temperature and lightning protection: Some safety sockets also have high temperature and lightning protection functions, which can automatically cut off the power in the event of a sudden voltage increase or lightning strike, protecting appliances and user safety.
[0007] A search revealed a Chinese utility model patent, CN219513388U, disclosing an electrical safety socket, relating to the field of safety socket technology. This utility model includes a socket body, with a fastening component fitted onto the front edge of the socket body. A sliding component is slidably connected inside the fastening component, and a clamping plate is slidably connected to the inner side of the sliding component. This utility model first fixes the fastening component to the socket body, then slides the sliding component in from both sides of the fastening component. Simultaneously, the clamping plates on both sides slide and clamp the power cord or come into contact with each other, thereby significantly reducing the contact area between the plug and the outside environment. This effectively reduces the contact between the socket and plug and the outside environment during use, thus providing excellent protection. Furthermore, when not in use, the sliding plates on all opposite sides can maintain contact, also providing good protection.
[0008] However, this device often lacks waterproofing. When the socket is not in use, water can seep into the socket when it is splashed, causing poor contact between the plug and the socket and generating electric arcs. This can not only cause a fire but also threaten equipment and personal safety. In addition, the device lacks ease of installation, making the installation process difficult and time-consuming, and reducing the accuracy and stability of the installation. This affects the socket's performance and safety. Utility Model Content
