Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connection device technology, and in particular to a ground electrode plate and socket compatible with multiple plugs. Background Technology

[0002] Existing power supply equipment is widely used in production and daily life, providing power support for multiple electrical appliances. In the field of power products such as uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), inverters, and automatic voltage regulators (AVR), German standard plugs, Italian standard plugs, and their corresponding sockets have attracted much attention due to their widespread use in Europe. However, there are significant differences between German and Italian standard plugs in their grounding terminals. This difference means that the same series of power products cannot be configured with sockets compatible with both types of plugs, thus requiring separate socket designs for German and Italian standard plugs, resulting in incompatibility between German and Italian standard plug sockets. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, it is necessary to propose a ground electrode plate and socket that are compatible with multiple plugs.

[0041] Please refer to Figure 1This application provides a ground electrode plate 100 compatible with various plugs. These various plugs are manufactured according to different standards, including but not limited to DIN (German Standard), ANT (Italian Standard), and GB (Chinese Standard) plugs. The various plugs in this application include a first plug with a ground electrode socket and a second plug with a ground electrode. The first plug is a DIN plug, and the second plug is an ANT plug. The main difference between the DIN and ANT plugs lies in the position and shape of the ground electrode. The following specific embodiments will illustrate how the ground electrode plate 100 provided in this application achieves compatibility with both DIN and ANT plugs.

[0042] In this embodiment, the ground electrode 100 includes a substrate 1 and a side plate 2. The substrate 1 has a insertion hole 11. Along the setting direction of the substrate 1, two opposing elastic pieces 111 are provided along the edge of the insertion hole 11. The side plate 2 includes a first side plate 21 and a second side plate 22. Both the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 are elastic. Along the setting direction of the substrate 1, the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 are respectively disposed at both ends of the substrate 1 and extend in the same direction from both ends of the substrate 1. In this application, the size and shape of the insertion hole 11 are adapted to the size and shape of the ground electrode in a German standard plug. The first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 are identical side plates, and the size and shape of the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 are adapted to the size and shape of the ground electrode socket in a German standard plug. When the ground electrode piece 100 is installed in the socket 1000, the socket 1000 allows the ground electrode socket of the first plug to be inserted into either the first side plate 21 or the second side plate 22, or allows the ground electrode of the second plug to be inserted into the plug hole 11 with the two elastic pieces 111. In other words, for a socket 1000 with the ground electrode piece 100 installed, the same ground electrode piece 100 can be used for both German standard plugs and Italian standard plugs, without requiring separate sockets for German and Italian standard plugs. Therefore, the ground electrode piece 100 provided in this application improves the versatility of sockets 1000 with this ground electrode piece 100 installed.

[0043] In this embodiment, two elastic pieces 111 are arranged opposite to each other, and each elastic piece 111 includes a first elastic piece 1111 and a second elastic piece 1112. The first elastic piece 1111 and the second elastic piece 1112 are bent and connected. Along the setting direction of the substrate 1, the first elastic piece 1111 extends from the edge of the insertion hole 11 at a first preset angle in a direction away from the side plate 2, forming a bevel. The second elastic piece 1112 extends from the end of the first elastic piece 1111 away from the substrate 1 in a direction away from the side plate 2. In this application, the first elastic piece 1111 and the second elastic piece 1112 are bent and connected in a roughly "V" shape. By providing two elastic pieces 111 in the insertion hole 11 to form a bevel, the ground electrode 100 can provide the insertion hole 11 with an insertion force suitable for the plug when inserting or removing the connector. Because the elastic tabs 111 are elastic, during a single insertion and removal of the Italian standard plug, the two elastic tabs 111 can return to their initial state after the insertion and removal force is applied, thereby ensuring that the socket 11 can meet the subsequent requirements for providing insertion and removal force to the Italian standard plug. Simultaneously, since the elastic tabs 111 extend along the setting direction of the substrate 1, they do not increase the size of the ground electrode 100 in the setting direction of the substrate 1, thereby reducing the material cost of the ground electrode 100.

[0044] In this embodiment, both the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 include a first curled portion 211 and a second curled portion 212. The first curled portion 211 is connected to one end of the substrate 1. The second curled portion 212 is connected to the end of the first curled portion 211 away from the substrate 1. The first curled portion 211 is curled towards the substrate 1. The second curled portion 212 is curled away from the substrate 1. Along the setting direction of the substrate 1, the first curled portion 211 of the first side plate 21 and the first curled portion 211 of the second side plate 22 are curled in opposite directions. The second curled portion 212 of the first side plate 21 and the second curled portion 212 of the second side plate 22 are also curled in opposite directions. In this application, the shape and degree of curling of the first curled portion 211 and the second curled portion 212 are adapted to the size and shape of the ground terminal in a German standard plug.

[0045] Furthermore, along the curling direction of the first curled portion 211, a protrusion 2111 is provided on the side of the first curled portion 211 facing the substrate 1. This application increases the strength and elasticity of the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 through the design of the protrusion 2111, thereby increasing the service life of the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 during the insertion and removal of the German standard plug.

[0046] In this embodiment, the substrate 1 is further provided with holes 12. Hole 12 includes a first hole 121 and a second hole 122. The first hole 121 and the second hole 122 are identical holes. The first hole 121 is located between the insertion hole 11 and the first side plate 21. The second hole 122 is located between the insertion hole 11 and the second side plate 22. Both the first hole 121 and the second hole 122 are composed of a positioning hole 1212 and a limiting hole 1211. Specifically, the centers of the positioning hole 1212 and the limiting hole 1211 coincide. The positioning hole 1212 is a round hole, and the limiting hole 1211 is a square hole. The positioning hole 1212 and the limiting hole 1211 of the first hole 121, and the positioning hole 1212 and the limiting hole 1211 of the second hole 122 are the same positioning hole 1212 and the limiting hole 1211, respectively. The limiting holes 1211 of the first hole 121 and the limiting holes 1211 of the second hole 122 form a second preset angle on the plane of the substrate 1, so that the first hole 121 and the second hole 122 are set at the second preset angle on the substrate 1. The socket 1000 is provided with a positioning member 202. The positioning hole 1212 is used to fix the positioning member 202 so that the ground electrode 100 is installed in the socket 1000. In this application, one or more of the positioning holes 1212 of the first hole 121 and the second hole 122 are used to fix the positioning member 202 so that the ground electrode 100 is installed in the socket 1000. That is, the ground electrode 100 can be fixed in the socket 1000 by the positioning member 202 with a single positioning hole 1212 or by the positioning member 202 with multiple positioning holes 1212.

[0047] Furthermore, the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 of the ground electrode 100 are symmetrically arranged about the insertion hole 11, so that the ground electrode 100 can be installed in the socket 1000 at various installation angles according to the second preset angle. In this application, the second preset angle is 90°, that is, the limiting hole 1211 of the first hole position 121 and the limiting hole 1211 of the second hole position 122 are perpendicular to the plane where the substrate 1 is located, and the first hole position 121 and the second hole position 122 are perpendicular to the substrate 1.

[0048] Understandably, during the insertion and removal of different plugs, the same ground electrode 100 can only be used for either a German standard plug or an Italian standard plug to be inserted into the socket 1000. Therefore, multiple ground electrode 100s can be used, and connected by connecting pieces 201 to one or more of the first holes 121 and second holes 122 in each ground electrode 100 to form a multi-level ground electrode 100. Furthermore, the socket 1000 equipped with this multi-level ground electrode 100 can accommodate multiple German standard plugs and / or multiple Italian standard plugs at once, that is, it can accommodate multiple German standard plugs or multiple Italian standard plugs, or it can accommodate German standard plugs and Italian standard plugs through different ground electrode 100s, further improving the versatility of the socket 1000.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 6 This application also provides a socket 1000 compatible with multiple plugs. The socket 1000 includes a socket body 200 and a ground electrode 100 compatible with multiple plugs disposed on the socket body 200. The ground electrode 100 compatible with multiple plugs has been described in detail above and will not be repeated here. In this application, the socket body 200 is provided with a second socket hole 204 and two first socket holes 203. The second socket hole 204 is disposed above the insertion hole 11 of the ground electrode 100. The two first socket holes 203 are respectively disposed on both sides of the second socket hole 204. The centers of the second socket hole 204 and the two first socket holes 203 are collinear and form a third preset angle with the setting direction of the substrate 1. The third preset angle is determined based on the size and shape of the German standard plug. In this application, the third preset angle is 90°, that is, the centers of the second socket hole 204 and the two first socket holes 203 are collinear and perpendicular to the setting direction of the substrate 1. That is to say, the first side plate 21 and the second side plate 22 are both perpendicular to the straight line where the center of the second socket hole 204 and the two first socket holes 203 are located.

[0050] In the above embodiments, by providing both a plug hole and a side plate compatible with different plugs on the ground electrode plate, users can adapt both German and Italian standard plugs to the same socket without replacing the socket assembly of the socket with the ground electrode plate installed, thus improving the versatility of the socket.

[0051] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of this application. Therefore, if these modifications and variations of this utility model fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model and their equivalents, this utility model is also intended to include these modifications and variations.

[0052] The above-listed 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.
