[0046] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the number of plug-in connectors 110 with power jacks 111 in the power socket 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application is three, and the remaining one plug-in connector 110 is provided with a USB charging interface 112, which is used for plugging and cooperating with an external data line, so that the power socket 100 has the function of USB charging. It can be understood that in other embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 , the number of plug-in connectors 110 with power jacks 111 in the power socket 100 of the embodiment is three.
[0047] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 , in an embodiment, the two adjacent plug-in connectors 110 in the socket body 10 are arranged vertically, that is, the included angle between the two adjacent plug-in connectors 110 is 90°, so that the overall shape of the socket body 10 is square, thus further improving the overall external aesthetic degree of the socket body 10. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the included angle between the two adjacent plug-in connectors 110 in the socket body 10 can also be 70°, 75°, 80°, etc., which will not be expanded here.
[0048] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown in the figure, in an embodiment, the overload protector 20 is arranged in the insertion direction of the power extension cord 30 when the power extension cord 30 is inserted into the socket body 10. Here, the overall thickness dimension of the socket body 10 is small, and the overload protector 20 cannot be completely accommodated in the socket body 10, so that the overload protector 20 protrudes outward relative to the socket body 10 in the thickness direction of the socket body 10, and therefore, the part of the overload protector 20 protruding out of the socket body 10 in the embodiment is arranged in the insertion direction of the power extension cord 30 when the power extension cord 30 is inserted into the socket body 10, so that the part of the overload protector 20 protruding out of the socket body 10 in the power socket 100 is arranged linearly with the connection part between the power extension cord 30 and the socket body 10, which can further improve the overall external appearance of the socket body 10. It should be noted that the insertion direction of the power extension cord 30 into the socket body 10 refers to the axial direction of the part of the power extension cord 30 that is engaged with the threading hole 121. It should be noted that the power socket 100 further comprises a waterproof cover 210, which can cover the part of the overload protector 20 protruding out of the socket body 10.

When people use the power socket 100, the power socket 100 can display the power-on state through the light emission of the power indicator 40, which can facilitate the use of the power socket 100. Here, the power indicator 40 and the overload protector 20 are arranged in the insertion direction of the power extension cord 30 when the power extension cord 30 is inserted into the socket body 10.
[0050] As shown in the figure, Figure 2 In an embodiment, the USB charging interface 112 comprises a Type-C interface 1121 and a Type-A interface 1122, so that the Type-C interface 1121 and the Type-A interface 1122 can be used to charge two types of data lines, so as to meet the different needs of people. Here, the Type-C interface 1121 and the Type-A interface 1122 are arranged in the thickness direction of the socket body 10.
[0051] As shown in the figure, Figures 1 to 3As shown in the drawings, in an embodiment, the power socket 100 further comprises an insulating rubber sleeve 50, which wraps the socket body 10 and part of the power extension cord 30. Here, the insulating rubber sleeve 50 can wrap the part of the power extension cord 30 adjacent to the socket body 10. It should be noted that the wrapping of the insulating rubber sleeve 50 on the socket body 10 does not affect the normal use of the power outlet 111 and the USB charging interface 112 on the socket body 10; and the insulating rubber sleeve 50 can wrap and limit the waterproof cover 210; wherein the insulating rubber sleeve 50 can be made of rubber material and formed on the socket body 10 by injection molding.
[0052] As shown in the drawings, Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment, the insulating rubber sleeve 50 is connected with a connecting rib 51 between the parts wrapping the two adjacent plug-in heads 110, the connecting rib 51 is arc-shaped, and the connecting rib 51 is arranged in the direction of the power extension cord 30 extending into the socket body 10. So that the socket body 10 can be hung and installed with the connecting rib 51, which can facilitate people to use the power socket 100. Here, the connecting rib 51 is connected with the insulating rubber sleeve 50 as a whole. It should be noted that the connecting rib 51 and the part of the insulating rubber sleeve 50 wrapping the two adjacent plug-in heads 110 together form a hanging hole, so that the size of the hanging hole is large enough, thereby further facilitating the hanging of the socket body 10.
[0053] As shown in the drawings, Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment, the insulating rubber sleeve 50 is connected with a sealing cover plate 52 on the part wrapping the plug-in head 110 with the USB charging interface 112, the sealing cover plate 52 can be plugged with the USB charging interface 112 for sealing the USB charging interface 112. So that people can use the sealing cover plate 52 to seal the unused USB charging interface 112, which can play a dustproof sealing role for the USB charging interface 112.
[0054] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 , Figure 3 In an embodiment, three lugs 53 are formed on the insulating rubber sleeve 50, the three lugs 53 correspond to the three plug-in heads 110 with the power outlet 111 one by one, and the lug 53 is arranged in the area where the corresponding plug-in head 110 is located; so that the lug 53 can play a foolproof role for the power outlet 111 on the socket body 10, preventing the external power plug from being inserted reversely in the power outlet 111. Here, the three lugs 53 are arranged on one side of the insulating rubber sleeve 50 in the thickness direction of the socket body 10, so that the structure of the lug 53 does not affect the flat placement of the socket body 10.
[0055] As shown in the drawings, Figure 3As shown, in an embodiment, the power socket 100 further comprises a jack plate 60 corresponding to the three plug-in heads 110 with the power jacks 111, the jack plate 60 is mounted on the corresponding plug-in head 110 and is limited by the insulating rubber sleeve 50; wherein the jack plate 60 is used for external power plug insertion and cooperation. So that the jack plate 60 can play a role in hiding the part where the power jack 111 of the plug-in head 110 on the socket body 10 is located, which can further improve the overall external aesthetics of the socket body 10. It should be noted that since the shell structure of the socket body 10 is assembled by the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, and after the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 are assembled, a joint seam 101 will be formed between them, that is, the plug-in head 110 will also form a joint seam 101 at the position of the power jack 111, and the jack plate 60 is used in this embodiment. The plug-in head 110 is arranged by abutting against the plug-in head 110, so that the jack plate 60 abutting against the plug-in head 110 can shield the joint seam 101 at the position of the power jack 111 on the plug-in head 110 and play a role in hiding.
[0056] As shown, Figure 3 In this embodiment, the jack plate 60 is connected to the socket body 10 in a plug-in cooperation manner, and the outer end face 61 of the jack plate 60 is configured as a circular face, so that the outer end face of the power socket 100 at the position of the power jack 111 is circular. The circular shape is more in line with human design ergonomics than the square shape, thereby further improving the external aesthetics of the power socket 100. It should be noted that since the shell of the socket body 10 is assembled by the upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12, the outer end face of the plug-in head 110 at the position of the power jack 111 cannot be circular. Obviously, the jack plate 60 with a circular plate structure abutting against the plug-in head 110 of the present application can overcome the above-mentioned problems.
[0057] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. In order to make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described, but as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictory, they should be considered as the scope of the present application.
