Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical engineering and automation, specifically to an automated electrical socket. Background Technology

[0002] A socket, also known as a power outlet or switch socket, is a socket with one or more circuit connections that can be inserted. This allows for easy connection to other circuits. The connection or disconnection of the circuit is achieved through the connection and disconnection of the wiring and copper components.

[0003] Currently, for convenience, users often leave the plugs of various power converters plugged into the socket for extended periods. This method of electricity use poses certain safety hazards, and the frequent plugging and unplugging is inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model proposes an automated electrical socket that can control the connection and disconnection of the plug and the socket by controlling the sliding of the terminal block within the base box. By controlling the disconnection of the socket and the plug within the socket, power can be cut off without unplugging the plug.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] An automated electrical socket includes a base box, a front panel, and a terminal block. The front panel is disposed on the base box for inserting a plug, and the terminal block is disposed inside the base box for connecting external power lines and connecting the plug to the socket.

[0007] The junction box and the back box are slidably connected, and an elastic element is provided between the junction box and the back box. The elastic element is used to abut the junction box, allowing the junction box to move away from the back box.

[0008] The panel is equipped with a pusher, the other end of which is connected to the terminal block. The pusher is used to abut the terminal block, causing the terminal block to move into the bottom box.

[0009] In summary, the above technical solution has the following beneficial effects: In a traditional socket, the power strip and the bottom of the box slide together. Without external force, the elastic element abuts against the power strip, bringing it closer to the panel. In this state, the plug of the electrical device can be inserted from the panel and connected to the power strip. When the pushing element pushes the panel, compressing the elastic element and moving the power strip inside the bottom of the box, the distance between the power strip and the panel increases. This prevents the plug of the electrical device from connecting to the connector on the power strip, thus disconnecting the power to the device. The pushing element is an active component, directly powered by the power supply on the power strip. When the power strip is close to the panel and the pushing element is not pushing the power strip, the pushing element also helps to hold the power strip in place during the insertion of the plug into the panel.

Detailed Implementation

[0014] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Identical components are indicated by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," and "lower" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the terms "bottom surface," "top surface," "inner," and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.

[0015] like Figs. 1-3As shown, an automated electrical socket includes a base box 10, a front panel 20, and a power strip 30. The front panel 20 is mounted on the base box 10 for inserting a plug. The power strip 30 is disposed inside the base box 10 for connecting external power cords and plugs. The power strip 30 and the base box 10 are slidably connected. An elastic member 40 is provided between the power strip 30 and the base box 10, which abuts against the power strip 30, causing it to move away from the base box 10. A pusher 50 is provided on the front panel 20, with its other end connected to the power strip 30. The pusher 50 abuts against the power strip 30, causing it to move into the base box 10. In this application, the power strip 30 is slidably connected to the base box of a conventional socket. Without external force, the elastic member 40 abuts against the power strip 30, bringing it closer to the front panel 20. In this state, the plug of the electrical device can be inserted from the front panel 20 and connected to the power strip 30. When the pusher 50 pushes the panel 20, compressing the elastic element 40 and moving the terminal block 30 into the bottom of the box, the distance between the terminal block 30 and the panel 20 increases. This prevents the plug of the electrical device from connecting to the connector on the terminal block 30 even when it is plugged into the panel 20, thus cutting off the power to the device. The pusher 50 is an active component, directly powered by the power supply on the terminal block 30. When the terminal block 30 is close to the panel 20, and the pusher 50 is not pushing the terminal block 30, the pusher 50 will also help to hold the terminal block 30 in place during the insertion of the plug into the panel 20.

[0016] Multiple elastic elements 40 are provided. Multiple elastic elements 40 make the terminal block 30 more stable during sliding.

[0017] The terminal block 30 has a first fixing ring 31 at the elastic member 40, and one end of the elastic member 40 connected to the terminal block 30 is located inside the first fixing ring 31; the inner surface of the bottom box 10 has a second fixing ring 11 at the elastic member 40, and one end of the elastic member 40 connected to the bottom box 10 is located inside the second fixing ring 11. The first fixing ring 31 and the second fixing ring 11 are used to fix the position of the elastic member 40, so that the elastic member 40 is compressed only along the sliding direction of the terminal block 30.

[0018] The pusher 50 includes a hand control end 51, a fixed end 52, and a telescopic end 53. The hand control end 51 is located on one side of the fixed end 52, and the telescopic end 53 is located on the other side of the fixed end 52 and is slidably connected to the fixed end 52. The hand control end 51 is used to control the extension and retraction of the telescopic end 53. An opening 21 is provided on the panel 20 for the hand control end 51 to be exposed. The side of the telescopic end 53 away from the fixed end 52 is connected to the wiring board 30. The telescopic end 53 is controlled to extend and retract by a motor, electromagnet, or other telescopic device inside the fixed end 52. The hand control end 51 is used to control the cyclic extension and retraction of the telescopic end 53.

[0019] The terminal block 30 has an extension indicator light 32 and a retraction indicator light 33 next to the telescopic end 53. When the telescopic end 53 is extended, the extension indicator light 32 is powered on, and when the telescopic end 53 is retracted, the retraction indicator light 33 is powered on.

[0020] The radius of the opening 21 of the panel 20 is larger than the radius of the hand control terminal 51, and a transparent ring 22 is provided in the gap between the hand control terminal 51 and the opening 21. The transparent ring 22 is fitted on the hand control terminal 51, and the lights of the extension indicator 32 and the retraction indicator 33 are different colors, and the emitted light can be displayed through the transparent ring 22.

[0021] A timing module 60 is installed on panel 20. The timing module 60 is electrically connected to the pusher 50. The timing module 60 is used to control the pusher 50 to move the power strip 30 at a set time. Without the timing module 60, the pusher 50 alone can control whether the socket moves backward, eliminating the need for frequent plugging and unplugging of appliances. When power needs to be cut off, pressing the manual end of the pusher 50 once will move the power strip 30 backward, making operation convenient. Of course, with the timing module 60 installed, the extension and retraction of the pusher 50 can be timed, allowing for timed power-off control of appliances during use. For example, when charging a mobile phone with the socket, the timing module 60 can be used to set the time, and the socket will automatically cut off the power when the phone is fully charged, thus avoiding the safety hazards caused by prolonged charging.

[0022] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within its protection scope.
