Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0054] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This invention describes a plug assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0055] The plug assembly of this utility model embodiment includes a body 1 and a cover 2.

[0056] like Figure 1-4As shown, the main body 1 has a first side 101 and a second side 102. A first plug 1011 is provided on the first side 101, and a second plug 1021 is provided on the second side 102. The first plug 1011 and the second plug 1021 are different.

[0057] It is understandable that the difference between the first plug 1011 and the second plug 1021 could refer to different rated load power, for example, the first plug 1011 is a 10A plug and the second plug 1021 is a 16A plug; or it could refer to different specifications, for example, the first plug 1011 is a Chinese standard plug and the second plug 1021 is an American standard, European standard, British standard and South African standard plug, etc.

[0058] By providing different first plugs 1011 and second plugs 1021 on the main body 1, the plug assembly of this utility model embodiment can be adapted to sockets of different specifications.

[0059] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the cover 2 is connected to the body 1. The cover 2 is movable relative to the body 1 between a first position and a second position. When the cover 2 is in the first position, the cover 2 covers the first plug 1011 on the first side 101 and exposes the second plug 1021 on the second side 102. When the cover 2 is in the second position, the cover 2 covers the second plug 1021 on the second side 102 and exposes the first plug 1011 on the first side 101.

[0060] By providing the cover 2 in this embodiment of the utility model, when either the first plug 1011 or the second plug 1021 is used, the other plug can be covered to protect the other plug and prevent it from contacting the user, thereby improving the safety of the plug assembly.

[0061] Therefore, the embodiments of this utility model can be applied to sockets of different specifications and have the characteristics of high safety.

[0062] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the cover 2 is rotatably connected to the body 1 so that the cover 2 can rotate between a first position and a second position.

[0063] Furthermore, the cover 2 has a first positioning surface 201 and a second positioning surface 202 disposed opposite to each other in its rotational direction;

[0064] When the cover 2 is in the first position, the second positioning surface 202 and the second side surface 102 are coplanar. When using the second plug 1021 of the second side surface 102, interference between the second positioning surface 202 of the cover 2 and the second plug 1021 of the second side surface 102 can be avoided.

[0065] When the cover 2 is in the second position, the first positioning surface 201 is coplanar with the first side surface 101. When using the first plug 1011 of the first side surface 101, interference between the first positioning surface 201 of the cover 2 and the first plug 1011 of the first side surface 101 can be avoided.

[0066] Optionally, the main body 1 also has a third side 103, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the first side 101, the second side 102, and the third side 103 are located on the three sides of a triangle. This triangle can be an equilateral triangle or an isosceles triangle. When the triangle is an isosceles triangle, the first side 101 and the second side 102 are located on two equal legs of the isosceles triangle.

[0067] When the cover 2 is in the first position, the first positioning surface 201 and the third side surface 103 are coplanar, and the second positioning surface 202 and the second side surface 102 are coplanar.

[0068] When the cover 2 is in the second position, the second positioning surface 202 and the third side surface 103 are coplanar, and the first positioning surface 201 and the first side surface 101 are coplanar.

[0069] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the body 1 has a first end face 104 and a second end face 105 disposed opposite to each other in a first direction. It can be understood that the first direction may be the thickness direction of the body 1.

[0070] The cover 2 includes a first cover plate 203 and a second cover plate 204 spaced apart in a first direction. The first cover plate 203 is disposed on the side of the body 1 having a first end face 104, and the second cover plate 204 is disposed on the side of the body 1 having a second end face 105.

[0071] Optionally, both the first cover plate 203 and the second cover plate 204 are fan-shaped.

[0072] like Figure 1-4 As shown, the cover 2 also includes a connecting plate 205, which connects the first cover plate 203 and the second cover plate 204. The connecting plate 205 is located on the outer side of the circumferential surface of the body 1 and is spaced apart from the body 1.

[0073] The first cover plate 203 and the second cover plate 204 are both rotatably connected to the main body 1 so that the cover 2 can rotate between the first position and the second position.

[0074] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1-4 As shown, the plug assembly in this embodiment of the present invention further includes a positioning component 3, which includes a pressing rod 301.

[0075] The main body 1 has a rotating hole 106 that extends through the main body 1 in a first direction. A pressing rod 301 passes through the rotating hole 106, and one end of the pressing rod 301 passes through the first cover plate 203. A positioning plate 302 is provided on the side of the first cover plate 203 away from the main body 1. One end of the pressing rod 301 is connected to the positioning plate 302. A positioning element 3021 is provided on the side of the positioning plate 302 adjacent to the first cover plate 203.

[0076] The main body 1 is provided with a first positioning groove 107 and a second positioning groove 108. The positioning member 3021 passes through the first sliding hole provided on the first cover plate 203. The positioning member 3021 can move between a third position that is disengaged from the first positioning groove 107 and the second positioning groove 108 and a fourth position that cooperates with one of the first positioning groove 107 and the second positioning groove 108.

[0077] The other end of the pressing rod 301 passes through the second sliding hole provided in the second cover plate 204. The other end of the pressing rod 301 is provided with a pressing member 303 partially located in the second sliding hole. An elastic member 304 is provided between the pressing member 303 and the body 1. The pressing member 303 drives the pressing rod 301, the positioning plate 302 and the positioning member 3021 to move the positioning member 3021 between the third position and the fourth position.

[0078] Furthermore, when the cover 2 is in the first position, the positioning member engages with the first positioning groove 107; when the cover 2 is in the second position, the positioning member engages with the second positioning groove 108.

[0079] It is understandable that when the cover 2 is in the first position, the positioning member 3021 engages with the first positioning groove 107 to lock the cover 2 in the first position. At the same time, the user can press the pressing member 303 to disengage the positioning member 3021 on the positioning plate 302 from the first positioning groove 107. Even if the positioning member 3021 moves from the fourth position to the third position, and then the cover 2 is rotated to the second position, the pressing member 303 is released, so that the positioning member 3021 on the positioning plate 302 engages with the second positioning groove 108 to lock the cover 2 in the second position.

[0080] In some embodiments, an arc-shaped limiting groove 109 is provided on the first end face 104, and a limiting member 2031 suitable for extending into the arc-shaped limiting groove 109 is provided on the first cover plate 203; and / or, an arc-shaped limiting groove 109 is provided on the second end face 105, and a limiting member 2031 suitable for extending into the arc-shaped limiting groove 109 is provided on the second cover plate 204.

[0081] By setting the arc-shaped limiting groove 109, the cover 2 can be guided and limited when moving between the first position and the second position.

[0082] In some embodiments, the body 1 has a sealing plate hole 4 that extends through the body 1 along a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0083] Specifically, the second direction is parallel to the third side 103, that is, the sealing plate hole 4 penetrates the body 1 in a direction parallel to the third side 103.

[0084] A sealing plate 5 is slidably provided inside the sealing plate hole 4. The sealing plate 5 has a first end 501 and a second end 502 arranged opposite to each other in a second direction. When the cover 2 is in the first position, the first end 501 of the sealing plate 5 abuts against the connecting plate 205; when the cover 2 is in the second position, the second end 502 of the sealing plate 5 abuts against the connecting plate 205.

[0085] Furthermore, the sealing plate hole 4 has a first opening 401 and a second opening 402 arranged opposite to each other in a second direction. The first opening 401 is used for the first end 501 of the sealing plate 5 to pass through; the second opening 402 is used for the second end 502 of the sealing plate 5 to pass through. The end of the first cover plate 203 away from the connecting plate 205 is provided with a first blocking member 2032; the end of the second cover plate 204 away from the connecting plate 205 is provided with a second blocking member 2041.

[0086] When the cover 2 is in the first position, the first end 501 of the sealing plate 5 passes through the first opening 401 and abuts against the connecting plate 205. The first blocking member 2032 and the second blocking member 2041 are adjacent to the second opening 402 to prevent the second end 502 of the sealing plate 5 from passing through the second opening 402.

[0087] When the cover 2 is in the second position, the second end 502 of the sealing plate 5 protrudes through the second opening 402 and abuts against the connecting plate 205. The first blocking member 2032 and the second blocking member 2041 are adjacent to the first opening 401 to prevent the first end 501 of the sealing plate 5 from protruding through the first opening 401.

[0088] In some embodiments, the plug assembly of this utility model further includes a cable 6, which extends into the body 1 and is connected to the first plug 1011 and the second plug 1021; the cable 6 passes through the sealing plate hole 4, and the sealing plate 5 is provided with a waist-shaped hole 503 for the cable 6 to pass through, which can prevent the cable 6 from interfering with the sealing plate 5.

[0089] This utility model also provides an electrical device, including the plug assembly described in the above embodiments.

[0090] The electrical equipment of this utility model can be adapted to sockets of different specifications by providing a plug assembly including a first plug 1011 and a second plug 1021.

[0091] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model, and should all be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
