Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of socket technology, and in particular relates to a smart socket for monitoring the energy consumption of workshop equipment. Background Technology
[0002] In a production workshop, the importance of electrical outlets as key components connecting equipment to power sources is self-evident. Traditional outlets have a relatively simple structure, mainly consisting of a casing, sockets, conductive components, and a power cord for connecting to an external power source. However, in a production workshop, equipment is often spaced far apart. While outlets connect the equipment to the power source, personnel moving around or machine vibrations can easily cause accidental pulling on the connecting cord. This external force can easily cause the plug to separate from the socket, resulting in a momentary power outage for the equipment. This situation often has adverse effects on the equipment, such as potentially causing damage to internal components. For equipment running critical programs or processing important data, it can also lead to data loss, causing irreparable damage. Utility Model Content
[0003] Based on the above background, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a smart socket for monitoring the energy consumption of workshop equipment.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0005] A smart socket for monitoring the energy consumption of workshop equipment includes a socket housing with a socket hole. A protective shell is rotatably provided on one side of the socket housing, and the protective shell can be rotatably opened or closed above the socket hole.
[0006] A first fixing rod is slidably provided inside the protective shell. The first fixing rod is close to the rotatable side of the protective shell, and both sides of the first fixing rod abut against the inner wall of the protective shell.
[0007] An installation block is fixed on the inner wall of the protective shell, and a first threaded rod is rotatably provided on the top of the installation block, with one end of the first threaded rod extending out of the top of the protective shell;
[0008] The first fixed rod has a connecting block on its side, and the connecting block is threadedly connected to the first threaded rod;
[0009] The first fixing rod has a second sliding groove on its side, and a second threaded rod is rotatably provided in the second sliding groove. The two ends of the second threaded rod have opposite thread directions, and one end of the second threaded rod extends out of the side of the first fixing rod and the protective shell.
[0010] The second slide groove has two sliding blocks at both ends, and the second slide blocks are threadedly connected to the second threaded rod; the second slide blocks have a second fixing rod on their side.
[0011] The protective shell has a third sliding groove on its side, and one end of the second threaded rod is slidably disposed in the third sliding groove;
[0012] The protective shell has a through groove on its side.
[0013] With the above technical solution, after opening the protective shell and inserting the plug into the socket, and then closing the protective shell, the distance between the two second fixing rods is adjusted by rotating the second threaded rod, so that the plug is positioned below the two second fixing rods. Then, by rotating the first threaded rod, the distance between the first fixing rod and the plug in the longitudinal direction is adjusted. Since the first and second fixing rods are structurally related, this operation simultaneously adjusts the longitudinal distance between the second fixing rod and the plug, ultimately ensuring that the bottom of the second fixing rod firmly presses against the top of the plug, thus securely fixing the plug. In actual use, even if the staff accidentally pulls the power cord, it can effectively prevent the plug from detaching from the socket.
[0014] Furthermore, the protective shell has symmetrically provided first grooves on its side, and the first grooves penetrate one side of the protective shell;
[0015] A first slider is slidably disposed within the first groove. The first slider is I-shaped, and one side of the first slider is connected to the first fixed rod.
[0016] Through the above technical solution, the cooperation between the first slider and the first groove can help the first fixed rod move up and down more stably inside the protective shell.
[0017] Furthermore, the bottom of the second fixing rod is provided with a plurality of fourth sliding grooves, one end of the fixing block is slidably mounted in the fourth sliding groove, and the other end of the fixing block extends out of the bottom of the fourth sliding groove; the fixing block has a T-shaped cross section;
[0018] A spring is provided inside the fourth slide groove, and the two ends of the spring are fixedly connected to the top of the fourth slide groove and the top of the fixing block, respectively.
[0019] Furthermore, insulating rubber is provided on the sides of both the first fixing rod and the second fixing rod;
[0020] The bottom of the fixing block is hemispherical and made of insulating rubber.
[0021] The above technical solution, through the elastic buffering of the fixing block and spring, better secures the top of the plug.
[0022] Furthermore, a first hook block is fixedly provided on the side of the socket housing, and a first hook groove is provided on the first hook block. The first hook block is an elastic structure.
[0023] The lower side of the protective shell is provided with a second hook block, which is hooked and connected to the first hook groove.
[0024] The side of the first hook block closest to the protective shell is an inclined surface, and the side of the second hook block closest to the first hook block is also an inclined surface.
[0025] The above technical solution is used to fix the protective shell after it is closed.
[0026] Furthermore, a second hook groove is provided inside the first hook groove on the side near the protective shell, and the second hook groove is triangular;
[0027] The second hook block is provided with a third hook block corresponding to the second hook groove.
[0028] The above technical solutions improve the tightness of the protective shell after it is closed.
[0029] Furthermore, mounting plates are provided on both sides of the bottom of the socket housing; threaded holes are provided on the mounting plates.
[0030] The above technical solution can fix the socket housing to the wall.
[0031] Furthermore, a power switch is provided on the top of the socket housing.
[0032] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0033] After opening the protective cover and inserting the plug into the socket, close the protective cover and adjust the distance between the two second fixing rods by rotating the second threaded rod, so that the plug is positioned below the two second fixing rods. Then, adjust the distance between the first fixing rod and the plug in the longitudinal direction by rotating the first threaded rod. Because the first and second fixing rods are structurally connected, this operation simultaneously adjusts the longitudinal distance between the second fixing rod and the plug, ultimately ensuring that the bottom of the second fixing rod firmly presses against the top of the plug, thus securely fixing the plug. In actual use, even if the staff accidentally pulls the power cord, it can effectively prevent the plug from losing contact with the socket. Attached Figure Description

The through groove 24 passes through the top and front of the protective shell 2 and is used to place the wire for plug connection. Mounting plates 12 are provided on both sides of the bottom of the socket housing 1. Threaded holes are opened on the mounting plates 12 so that the socket housing 1 can be fixed to the wall, ground or table as needed. The socket housing 1 is equipped with a control main board and a relay for controlling the current. This is prior art and will not be described in detail here.
[0051] When using the plug, after opening the protective cover 2 and inserting it into the socket 11, close the protective cover 2. Then, adjust the distance between the two second fixing rods 4 by rotating the second threaded rod 42, so that the plug is positioned below the two second fixing rods 4. Next, adjust the distance between the first fixing rod 3 and the plug in the longitudinal direction by rotating the first threaded rod 31. Since the first fixing rod 3 and the second fixing rod 4 are structurally related, this operation simultaneously adjusts the longitudinal distance between the second fixing rod 4 and the plug, ultimately ensuring that the bottom of the second fixing rod 4 firmly presses down on the top of the plug, thus securely fixing the plug. In actual use, even if the operator accidentally pulls the power cord, it can effectively prevent the plug from detaching from the socket 11.
[0052] Preferably, the protective shell 2 has a first sliding groove 21 symmetrically provided on its side, and the first sliding groove 21 penetrates one side of the protective shell 2; a first slider 22 is slidably provided in the first sliding groove 21, the first slider 22 is I-shaped, the middle position of the first slider 22 slides in the first sliding groove 21, and one side of the first slider 22 is connected to the first fixed rod 3. The cooperation between the first slider 22 and the first sliding groove 21 can help the first fixed rod 3 to move up and down more stably in the protective shell 2.
[0053] Preferably, the bottom of the second fixing rod 4 is provided with a plurality of fourth sliding grooves 44, one end of the fixing block 45 is slidably mounted in the fourth sliding groove 44, and the other end of the fixing block 45 extends out of the bottom of the fourth sliding groove 44; the fixing block 45 has a T-shaped cross section; a spring 46 is provided in the fourth sliding groove 44, and the two ends of the spring 46 are fixedly connected to the top of the fourth sliding groove 44 and the top of the fixing block 45, respectively; the sides of the first fixing rod 3 and the second fixing rod 4 are provided with insulating rubber; the bottom of the fixing block 45 is hemispherical and is made of insulating rubber.
[0054] Preferably, a first hook block 5 is fixedly provided on the side of the socket housing 1, and a first hook groove 51 is provided on the first hook block 5. The first hook block 5 is an elastic structure. A second hook block 6 is provided at the lower end of the side of the protective shell 2. The second hook block 6 is hooked and connected to the first hook groove 51. The side of the first hook block 5 near the protective shell 2 is inclined. The side of the second hook block 6 near the first hook block 5 is inclined. A second hook groove 52 is provided inside the first hook groove 51 near the protective shell 2. The second hook groove 52 is triangular. A third hook block 61 is provided on the second hook block 6 corresponding to the second hook groove 52.
[0055] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: After opening the protective shell 2 and inserting the plug into the socket 11, the protective shell 2 is closed. During the closing process, the inclined surface of the second hook block 6 on the side of the protective shell 2 contacts the inclined surface of the first hook block 5, generating an outward pushing force on the first hook block 5. As the protective shell 2 is fully closed, the first hook block 5 rebounds due to the elastic force, and the second hook block 6 falls into the first hook groove 51. The third hook block 61 hooks into the second hook groove 52, fixing the protective shell 2 in place. When it needs to be opened, simply pry the first hook block 5 open. Because the wire positions of different plugs are different... Similarly, the wire of the plug located on the side passes through the through groove 24 on the side of the protective shell 2, and the wire of the plug located on the top passes through the through groove 24 on the top of the protective shell 2. After the protective shell 2 is fixed, the distance between the two second fixing rods 4 is adjusted by rotating the second threaded rod 42 so that the plug is located below the two second fixing rods 4. Then, the distance between the first fixing rod 3 and the plug in the longitudinal direction is adjusted by rotating the first threaded rod 31, so that the fixing block 45 at the bottom of the second fixing rod 4 presses and fixes the top of the plug, effectively preventing the plug from detaching from the socket 11.
[0056] Of course, the above description is not intended to limit the present utility model, and the present utility model is not limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present utility model should also fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
