Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical equipment technology, and in particular to an underwater waterproof socket. Background Technology
[0002] Generally, water is conductive due to the presence of numerous conductive ions and impurities. Furthermore, water can cause short circuits, leading to equipment malfunction or even damage. In particular, electrical leaks caused by water or other factors can pose a threat to human life. Therefore, electrical equipment is often limited by the water environment, such as underwater electrical equipment, flood relief, underwater maintenance and repair, diving operations, and shower rooms. In these applications, power sockets are frequently required, making waterproofing a crucial and essential consideration.
[0003] To meet standard waterproofing requirements, underwater electrical equipment typically employs an integrated design. For example, the power supply is connected to land, while the underwater portion is completely enclosed to achieve waterproofing. However, this design is rigid and bulky, often requiring custom-made designs that cannot be easily changed or modified. A single design can only be used in one environment, resulting in low compatibility and high cost. Furthermore, portable electrical devices typically have internal batteries for power. While this configuration allows for use in various locations, its battery capacity is limited, leading to insufficient battery life. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a portable waterproof socket to provide long-term, safe, and convenient working conditions to meet people's needs in daily life and production. This has led to the design of various types of waterproof sockets.
[0004] However, the existing waterproof sockets have a relatively simple structure, and their waterproof structure cannot effectively meet the needs of underwater use, thus affecting their performance. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem that the waterproof structure of the waterproof socket mentioned in the background art cannot effectively meet the needs of underwater use, and to propose an underwater waterproof socket.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An underwater waterproof socket includes a main housing. A socket body is fixedly mounted on one end of the main housing. An opening is provided at the end of the main housing away from the socket body. An arc-shaped plate is slidably inserted into the opening. A groove corresponding to the arc-shaped plate is provided at the bottom of the opening. An arc-shaped groove is provided at the bottom of the arc-shaped plate. An arc-shaped pad is fixedly connected to the top of the arc-shaped groove. A sliding rod is fixedly connected to the top of the arc-shaped plate. A locking groove is provided at the top of the main housing. A locking mechanism corresponding to the sliding rod is fixedly connected in the locking groove. A first partition cavity and a second partition cavity are provided inside the main housing. Two baffles are symmetrically arranged between the first partition cavity and the second partition cavity. The baffles are rotatably connected to the inner wall of the main housing via a rotating shaft. A torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft. The two ends of the torsion spring abut against the baffle and the inner wall of the main housing, respectively. A waterproof pad is fixedly connected to each of the two opposing baffles.
[0008] Preferably, a first sealing ring corresponding to the socket body is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the main housing.
[0009] Preferably, a second sealing ring is fixedly fitted to one end of the arc-shaped plate near the arc-shaped groove.
[0010] Preferably, a pull rod is fixedly connected to the top of the slide rod.
[0011] Preferably, the main housing has an observation port at one end near the second partition cavity, and a transparent glass plate is fixedly inserted into the observation port.
[0012] Preferably, the main housing has multiple fastening ports at one end near the socket body.
[0013] Preferably, the locking mechanism includes a fixed rod, an L-shaped locking rod slidably sleeved on the fixed rod, and a support spring sleeved on the fixed rod, with both ends of the support spring abutting against the L-shaped locking rod and the inner wall of the locking groove, respectively.

Detailed Implementation
[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0021] Reference Figure 1-2 An underwater waterproof socket includes a main housing 1, a socket body 2 fixedly mounted on one end of the main housing 1, and multiple fastening ports on the end of the main housing 1 near the socket body 2 to facilitate the installation and fixing of the main housing 1. A first sealing ring 12 corresponding to the socket body 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the main housing 1 to ensure the sealing of the socket body 2. A through-hole is provided on the end of the main housing 1 away from the socket body 2.
[0022] In this embodiment, an arc-shaped plate 3 is slidably inserted into the opening to block the opening. The bottom of the opening is provided with a groove corresponding to the arc-shaped plate 3. The bottom of the arc-shaped plate 3 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 4 for the plug and the wire on the plug to pass through. A second sealing ring 13 is fixedly sleeved on one end of the arc-shaped plate 3 near the arc-shaped groove 4 to ensure the sealing of the arc-shaped plate 3. An arc-shaped pad 5 is fixedly connected to the top of the arc-shaped groove 4 to ensure the sealing of the plug and the wire.
[0023] In this embodiment, a slide rod 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the arc plate 3, and a pull rod 14 is fixedly connected to the top of the slide rod 6 to facilitate pulling the slide rod 6. A locking groove is provided on the top of the main housing 1, and a locking mechanism corresponding to the slide rod 6 is fixedly connected in the locking groove to fix the slide rod 6.
[0024] In this embodiment, the locking mechanism includes a fixed rod 16, an L-shaped locking rod 17 is slidably sleeved on the fixed rod 16, and a support spring 18 is sleeved on the fixed rod 16. The two ends of the support spring 18 abut against the L-shaped locking rod 17 and the inner wall of the locking groove, respectively, and provide a certain elastic support for the L-shaped locking rod 17.
[0025] In this embodiment, the main housing 1 is provided with a first partition cavity 7 and a second partition cavity 8, which serve as a partition to prevent water from entering the socket 2. The main housing 1 is provided with an observation port at one end near the second partition cavity 8, and a transparent glass plate 15 is fixedly inserted in the observation port to facilitate viewing the connection between the plug and the socket. Two baffles 9 are provided symmetrically between the first partition cavity 7 and the second partition cavity 8 to serve as a partition to block water.
[0026] In this embodiment, the baffle 9 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the main housing 1 via a rotating shaft 10. A torsion spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft 10. The two ends of the torsion spring abut against the baffle 9 and the inner wall of the main housing 1, respectively, to provide torsional support for the baffle 9. Waterproof gaskets 11 are fixedly connected to the two baffles 9 at opposite ends to ensure the sealing of the baffle 9.
[0027] In this embodiment, the plug is first inserted into the first partition cavity 7 through the arc groove 4 on the arc plate 3. Then, the arc plate 3 is pressed down by the slide rod 6 so that the arc pad 5 is in close contact with the wire on the plug. The slide rod 6 is fixed by the locking mechanism. Then, the plug is moved through the baffle 9 by the wire and enters the second partition cavity 8. Finally, it is inserted into the socket body 2. At the same time, the baffle 9 automatically rebounds and is in close contact with the wire under the torsion support of the torsion spring, which can effectively waterproof the wire.
[0028] In this embodiment, the waterproof capability of the socket can be effectively improved by setting up a multi-partition sealing structure, thereby ensuring the waterproof socket's performance underwater.
