[0045] Referring to Figures 1 to 7 A socket device 100 according to an embodiment of the present application includes a first socket module 10, a linkage rod 20, a second socket module 30, a lock mechanism 50, and a driving mechanism 60.

[0046] The first socket module 10 is connected with the second socket module 30 through the linkage rod 20 to form the main structure of the socket device 100. It is easy to understand that the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 both have the ability to provide plug-in power supply service to the electrical equipment.

[0047] One end of the linkage rod 20 is fixedly arranged on the first socket module 10, and the other end of the linkage rod 20 is movably arranged on the second socket module 30. The second socket module 30 and the first socket module 10 are cooperatively formed with the mounting clamping groove 40.

[0048] The lock mechanism 50 is movably arranged on the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30. The lock mechanism 50 has a locking state for locking the linkage rod 20 and an unlocking state for releasing the linkage rod 20. When in the locking state, the second socket module 30 and the first socket module 10 are locked by the lock mechanism 50 to keep relatively static. When in the unlocking state, the second socket module 30 and the first socket module 10 can relatively move close to or away from each other to adjust the width of the mounting clamping groove 40. The driving mechanism 60 is movably arranged on the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30. The driving mechanism 60 is in transmission connection with the linkage rod 20. The driving mechanism 60 has a non-working state and a working state. When in the non-working state, the driving mechanism 60 is in clearance fit with the linkage rod 20. When in the working state, the driving mechanism 60 is used to drive the linkage rod 20 to move relative to the second socket module 30, so that the second socket module 30 and the first socket module 10 move close to each other to clamp and fix the socket device 100.

[0049] In the present application, the lock mechanism 50 and the driving mechanism 60 are respectively located on the two sides of the linkage rod 20 (for example, in combination with Figure 7 the perspective, the lock mechanism 50 and the driving mechanism 60 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the linkage rod 20). In this way, a sufficient safety distance is kept between the lock mechanism 50 and the driving mechanism 60 to avoid interference problems when they work.

[0050] In summary, the socket device 100 of the present embodiment has the following beneficial effects: the socket device 100 is a socket product suitable for desktop installation, which is used for clamping and installing on the edge of the desktop, and does not occupy the desktop space while being convenient to use; specifically, the socket device 100 is assembled and composed of a first socket module 10, a linkage rod 20 and a second socket module 30 to form a main body structure, and the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 cooperate to form an installation clamping groove 40 for clamping the edge of the desktop to achieve the installation of the socket device 100; when installing, the locking mechanism 50 is unlocked, and the locking mechanism 50 releases the linkage rod 20, at this time, according to the thickness of the edge of the desktop, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 are operated to move closer to or away from each other, the width of the installation clamping groove 40 is adjusted to adapt to the thickness of the edge of the desktop, so that the edge of the desktop can be smoothly clamped into the installation clamping groove 40, and thus the installation of the socket device 100 is completed. Then, the driving mechanism 60 is operated again, and the driving mechanism 60 can drive the linkage rod 20 to move relative to the second socket module 30, and drive the second socket module 30 to move towards the first socket module 10, so that the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 more tightly clamp the edge of the desktop, thereby realizing the clamping and fixing of the socket device 100, and the installation method is simple and does not need to use special tools for assistance.

[0051] When it is necessary to adjust the desktop installation position of the socket device 100, the locking mechanism 50 is repeatedly operated to unlock the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 and move away from each other, and the socket device 100 can be moved, and when the installation position is adjusted to a new position, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 are clamped to the edge of the desktop by operating the driving mechanism 60 again, so that the installation position is adjusted conveniently, labor-savingly and efficiently, and the adjustment flexibility is high, which helps to improve the use experience.

[0052] It should be noted that in many cases, when the socket device 100 is clamped to the edge of the desktop, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 are pulled apart far away, that is, the width of the installation clamping groove 40 is much larger than the thickness of the edge of the desktop, which makes it difficult for the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 to be completely close to each other by a single operation of the driving mechanism 60 to clamp and fix the edge of the desktop. At this time, the driving mechanism 60 can be continuously operated several times to gradually and continuously close the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30, and finally clamp the edge of the desktop.

[0053] Please continue to refer to Figures 1 to 3In one embodiment, the first socket module 10 has a first clamping surface 11 arranged towards the second socket module 30, and the second socket module 30 has a second clamping surface 31 arranged towards the first socket module 10, the first clamping surface 11 and the second clamping surface 31 are arranged in a spaced manner to cooperatively form the mounting clamping groove 40. The mounting clamping groove 40 is formed in a simple manner and structure, the first clamping surface 11 is in clamping contact with the upper surface of the desktop, the second clamping surface 31 is in clamping contact with the lower surface of the desktop, and the contact area is large, which helps to improve the stability of the socket device 100 installed on the desktop. Moreover, when installing, only the width of the mounting clamping groove 40 needs to be enlarged, the slot is aligned with the side of the desktop, and then the socket device 100 is transversely translated, and the edge of the desktop can be clamped into the mounting clamping groove 40, and the assembly method is simple to operate.

[0054] Further, in order to avoid the socket device 100 from loosening and shifting after installation, affecting the installation stability and use safety, and at the same time avoiding the clamping force from being too large to damage the desktop, the socket device 100 further comprises a first anti-slip pad 11a arranged on the first clamping surface 11; or / and, the socket device 100 further comprises a second anti-slip pad 31a arranged on the second clamping surface 31.

[0055] For example, the first anti-slip pad 11a and the second anti-slip pad 31a can adopt any one of, but are not limited to, a silica gel pad, an adhesive layer, etc.

[0056] Please continue to refer to Figures 5 to 7 In addition, in one embodiment, the first socket module 10 comprises a first socket housing 12, and one end of the linkage rod 20 is fixedly connected with the first socket housing 12, so that the linkage rod 20 and the first socket module 10 can move synchronously.

[0057] The first socket housing 12 is provided with a moving guide column 121, the second socket module 30 comprises a second socket housing 32, the second socket housing 32 is provided with a receiving cavity 322 and a guide hole 321, and at least part of the first socket housing 12 is movably arranged in the receiving cavity 322, and the moving guide column 121 is slidably arranged in the guide hole 321. When the linkage rod 20 and the first socket module 10 are moved towards each other relative to the second socket module 30 by driving the driving mechanism 60, the moving guide column 121 slides in the guide hole 321, which plays a guiding and limiting effect and improves the stability of the relative movement of the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30.

[0058] In addition, in another embodiment, please refer to Figure 7The first socket module 10 further comprises a support 13, and the first socket housing 12 is further provided with a connecting plate 122, the connecting plate 122 is connected with the moving guide column 121, and the support 13 is arranged on the connecting plate 122. The mounting mode can be at least one of screwing, clamping, bonding and the like, and can be flexibly selected according to actual needs.

[0059] The support 13 is mainly used for loading the support locking mechanism 50 and the driving mechanism 60.

[0060] The locking mechanism 50 comprises a lock button 51, a lock transmission assembly 52, a first elastic member 53 and a lock body 54. The lock button 51 is movably arranged on the second socket housing 32, the lock transmission assembly 52 is movably arranged on the support 13 and is in transmission connection with the lock button 51, the first elastic member 53 is arranged on the support 13, and the lock body 54 has an opposite abutting end 541 and a locking end 542. The abutting end 541 is in abutment with the first elastic member 53, and the locking end 542 is in locking or unlocking cooperation with the linkage rod 20.

[0061] In actual use, when the lock button 51 is not pressed, the first elastic member 53 exerts an elastic pushing force on the lock body 54, so that the locking end 542 locks the linkage rod 20, and the locking mechanism 50 is in a locked state. At this time, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 cannot or hardly move relative to each other.

[0062] In the present application, the moving guide column 121 and the guide hole 321 are both provided with two and are one-to-one corresponding installation. The connecting plate 122 is installed between the two moving guide columns 121 to improve the structural integrity and strength of the two moving guide columns 121. The support 13 is located between the two moving guide columns 121.

[0063] When the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 are installed, the moving guide column 121 and the connecting plate 122 are inserted into the accommodating cavity 322, so that the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 cooperate to form a U-shaped structure in appearance. During the process of moving and inserting the socket device 100 transversely to the edge of the desktop, the moving guide column 121 and the connecting plate 122 can form an installation positioning effect by abutting against the side surface of the desktop.

[0064] Further, the two moving guide columns 121 are further connected with a shielding plate 90a, the shielding plate 90a is used for shielding the linkage rod 20, avoiding the linkage rod 20 from being exposed when the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 are pulled away, affecting the appearance, and further strengthening the connection strength between the two moving guide columns 121.

[0065] Please continue to refer to Figure 4For example, when the socket device 100 is in the storage state, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 can be brought together with a minimum distance, so that the overall structure of the socket device 100 is more compact, smaller in size, occupies less installation space, and is more convenient for storage and carrying. At this time, since the lock mechanism 50 locks the linkage rod 20, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 will not be loose and spread apart, that is, the locking end 542 and the linkage rod 20 are in locking cooperation.

[0066] Please continue to refer to Figures 6 to 7 When the lock button 51 is pressed, the lock button 51 pushes the lock transmission assembly 52 to move, so that the lock transmission assembly 52 synchronously extrudes the abutting end 541 to make the lock body 54 rotate, the abutting end 541 extrudes the first elastic member 53 to compress the energy storage, and at the same time drives the locking end 542 to rotate to be out of contact with the linkage rod 20, realizing the unlocking and releasing of the linkage rod 20, that is, the locking end 542 and the linkage rod 20 are in unlocking cooperation. At this time, the first socket module 10 has the freedom of extension and retraction relative to the second socket module 30, which is convenient for adjusting the width of the installation clamping groove 40 to adapt to the installation of desktops of different thicknesses, and improves the applicability of the socket device 100.

[0067] Specifically, please refer to Figures 6-7 The locking end 542 is provided with a lock hole 5421, and the linkage rod 20 is arranged in the lock hole 5421. When the lock mechanism 50 is in the locked state, the first elastic member 53 abuts against the abutting end 541 to make the lock body 54 inclined, and the hole wall of the lock hole 5421 is in close contact with the linkage rod 20 to make the lock body 54 lock the linkage rod 20. When the lock button 51 is pressed to switch the lock mechanism 50 from the locked state to the unlocked state, the lock transmission assembly 52 drives the abutting end 541 to rotate and extrude the first elastic member 53, and the hole wall of the lock hole 5421 is in clearance fit with the linkage rod 20 to make the lock body 54 release the linkage rod 20. The locking and unlocking mode in this embodiment is simple in principle, high in reliability, and can realize stepless locking, greatly expanding the types and range of desktops suitable for clamping and installation.

[0068] Optionally, the first elastic member 53 can be but is not limited to a spring.

[0069] Please continue to refer to Figure 7 On the basis of the above embodiment, the bracket 13 is provided with a first installation groove 131, and the first elastic member 53 is arranged in the first installation groove 131. The first installation groove 131 is used for installing and positioning the first elastic member 53, so as to ensure that the first elastic member 53 stably and reliably deforms in extension and retraction.

[0070] Alternatively, as an alternative embodiment, the bracket 13 is provided with a first mounting groove 131, the first mounting groove 131 is coaxially arranged with the linkage rod 20, and the first elastic member 53 is arranged in the first mounting groove 131 and can be sleeved or separated from the linkage rod. The difference between this embodiment and the above-mentioned embodiment is only that the arrangement position of the first elastic member 53 is adjusted, but the same technical effects as the above-mentioned embodiment can be obtained, so the details are not repeated here.

[0071] Please continue to refer to Figures 6 to 7 In one embodiment, the lock transmission assembly 52 includes a lock top block 521 and a lock pushing block 522, the lock top block 521 is slidably arranged in the bracket 13, and one end of the lock top block 521 is in transmission connection with the lock key 51, the lock pushing block 522 is rotatably arranged in the bracket 13, and one end of the lock pushing block 522 is in transmission connection with the other end of the lock top block 521, and the other end of the lock pushing block 522 is in transmission cooperation with the locking end 542. The driving force output by the lock key 51 can be more efficiently transmitted to the lock body 54 through the lock top block 521 and the lock pushing block 522, improving the unlocking efficiency, and the number of cooperating components is small, the transmission reliability is high, and the durability is good.

[0072] Further, as Figure 7 shown, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, the bracket 13 is provided with a first limiting portion 133, the first limiting portion 133 is arranged on the side of the linkage rod 20 facing the lock mechanism 50, and when the lock mechanism 50 is in the locked state, the first limiting portion 133 abuts against the lock pushing block 522. When the lock mechanism 50 is in the locked state, the first elastic member 53 exerts an elastic force on the lock body 54, and the lock body 54 presses the lock pushing block 522 against the first limiting portion 133, at this time the first limiting portion 133 plays a limiting and supporting role on the lock pushing block 522.

[0073] In addition, in one of the embodiments, the driving mechanism 60 includes a driving key 61, a driving assembly 62, a second elastic member 63, and a driving body 64, the driving key 61 is movably arranged in the second socket shell 32, the driving assembly 62 is movably arranged in the bracket 13 and in transmission connection with the driving key 61, the second elastic member 63 is arranged on the bracket 13, and the driving body 64 has a transmission end 641 and a driving end 642 arranged opposite to each other, the transmission end 641 abuts against the second elastic member 63, and the driving end 642 abuts against or clearance fits with the linkage rod 20.

[0074] Specifically, the driving end 642 is provided with a matching hole 6421, and the linkage rod 20 is arranged in the matching hole 6421, when the driving mechanism 60 is in a non-working state, the second elastic member 63 abuts against the transmission end 641 to make the driving body 64 keep in a avoiding position, at this time the hole wall of the matching hole 6421 clearance fits with the linkage rod 20, which can avoid the interference of the movement of the driving end 642 on the linkage rod 20.

[0075] When the driving key 61 is pressed to switch the driving mechanism 60 from the non-working state to the working state, the driving assembly 62 drives the transmission end 641 to rotate and press the second elastic member 63, and at the same time, the driving body 64 is deflected to make the hole wall of the matching hole 6421 press the linkage rod 20 to move the driving end 642 to drive the linkage rod 20 to move relative to the second socket module 30, and the driving end 642 is in abutment with the linkage rod 20 to make the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 move towards each other to clamp and fix the socket device 100 on the edge of the table top.

[0076] In the non-working state, the hole wall of the matching hole 6421 is not in contact with the linkage rod 20, on the one hand, when the lock mechanism 50 is unlocked, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 move close to or away from each other, and the driving body 64 does not interfere with the movement of the linkage rod 20; on the other hand, the driving mechanism 60 is not easily triggered by mistake, causing the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 to move unexpectedly.

[0077] When the socket device 100 is installed on the edge of the table top, the driving key 61 is pressed to drive the driving assembly 62 to move, and the driving assembly 62 in turn extrudes the transmission end 641 to make the driving body 64 rotate and move downward towards the second socket module 30, on the one hand, the hole wall of the matching hole 6421 is in abutment with the linkage rod 20 to form a lock between the driving body 64 and the linkage rod 20, and on this basis, the downward movement of the driving body 64 can pull the linkage rod 20 and the first socket module 10 to move downward synchronously, so that the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 move towards each other to clamp the table top, improving the clamping and installation firmness of the socket device 100.

[0078] Please continue to refer to Figures 6 to 7 In an embodiment, the driving assembly 62 includes a driving top block 621 and a driving push block 622, the driving top block 621 is slidably arranged on the bracket 13, one end of the driving top block 621 is in transmission connection with the driving key 61, the driving push block 622 is rotatably arranged on the bracket 13, one end of the driving push block 622 is in transmission connection with the other end of the driving top block 621, and the other end of the driving push block 622 is in transmission cooperation with the transmission end 641. The driving force output by the driving key 61 can be more efficiently transmitted to the driving body 64 through the driving top block 621 and the driving push block 622, improving the driving efficiency, and the number of cooperation components of the driving assembly 62 is small, the transmission reliability is high, and the durability is good.

[0079] Further, as Figure 7 shown, on the basis of the above embodiment, the bracket 13 is further provided with a second limiting portion 134, the second limiting portion 134 is arranged on the side of the linkage rod 20 towards the driving mechanism 60, and when the driving mechanism 60 is in the non-working state, the driving push block 622 is in abutment with the second limiting portion 134.

[0080] When the driving mechanism is in the non-working state, the second elastic member 63 applies an elastic pushing force to the driving body 64, so that the driving body 64 presses the driving block 622 against the second limiting portion 134. At this time, the second limiting portion 134 plays a role of limiting and supporting the driving block, thereby ensuring the stability of the structure.

[0081] Optionally, the second elastic member 63 can be, but is not limited to, a spring.

[0082] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the support 13 is further provided with a second mounting groove 132, and the second elastic member 63 is arranged in the second mounting groove 132. The second mounting groove 132 is used for mounting and positioning the second elastic member 63, thereby ensuring the stable and reliable extension and contraction of the second elastic member 63.

[0083] It is easy to understand that by continuously pressing the driving button 61, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 can be gradually stepped closer to each other, and finally the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 can clamp and fix the edge of the desktop, thereby completing the clamping and installation of the socket device 100 on the desktop.

[0084] Please continue to refer to Figures 1 to 2 Further, the first socket module 10 and the second socket module 30 each further include a plurality of plug interfaces 70, and the plurality of plug interfaces 70 are respectively arranged on the side surfaces of the first socket housing 12 and the second socket housing 32 in different directions. The plurality of plug interfaces 70 are of the same type or different types. On the one hand, more plug interfaces 70 are provided, which can provide more electrical equipment for plugging and power supply, thereby enhancing the use performance of the socket device 100. On the other hand, different types of plug interfaces 70 can be used to meet the connection needs of electrical equipment with different plug types, thereby expanding the application range.

[0085] For example, the plug interface 70 can be, but is not limited to, at least one of a two-hole plug interface, a three-hole plug interface, a USB plug interface, a Lighting plug interface, a Type-C plug interface, etc.

[0086] It is easy to understand that the first socket housing 12 and the second socket housing 32 further have a PCB board 80 mounted therein, and the PCB board 80 is electrically connected with each plug interface 70, thereby playing a role of control and shunt.

[0087] In addition, the bottom of the second socket housing 32 is further connected with a socket power line 90, and the socket power line 90 is used to connect the mains electricity into the socket device 100.

[0088] Optionally, the first socket module 10 in the present application is a DC module, and the second socket module 30 is an AC module. Of course, the first socket module 10 can also be an AC module, and the second socket module 30 can also be a DC module.
