[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 The illustrated simple smart socket includes a supporting housing 1, a plug-in unit 2, a fixing component 3, and fixing bolts 4. The supporting housing 1 has a U-shaped cross-section. The plug-in unit 2 is slidably engaged inside the supporting housing 1, and a power monitoring module is slidably engaged inside the supporting housing 1. The power monitoring module is electrically connected to the plug-in unit 2. The power monitoring module collects current and voltage signals to calculate the power consumption of the connected devices. The power monitoring module analyzes this data through its internal processing unit and then transmits the results to the smart socket's control system. Finally, the power is controlled via a smartphone application or other control mechanism. The interface is presented to the user for intelligent monitoring of the socket. Since this is existing technology, it will not be described in detail here. The fixing part 3 is installed at one end of the bearing housing 1 by fixing bolts 4. The fixing part 3 is used to lock the plug unit 2 inside the bearing housing 1 and to fix the bearing housing 1. The fixing part 3 is in the shape of an inverted L, which separates the two ends of the bearing housing 1, thereby ensuring the stability of the assembly of the plug unit 2 inside the bearing housing 1. By removing the fixing part 3, the damaged plug unit 2 inside the bearing housing 1 can be slid out and replaced.

[0034] Furthermore, the plug-in unit 2 includes a plug-in housing 21, a plug-in plate 22, and a restraining frame 23. The plug-in housing 21 is slidably disposed inside the bearing housing 1, and a terminal block 24 is installed inside the plug-in housing 21. The plug-in plate 22 is connected to the top of the plug-in housing 21, and the top of the plug-in plate 22 has a plug-in hole corresponding to the terminal block 24. The restraining frame 23 is snapped between the plug-in housing 21 and the plug-in plate 22. The restraining frame 23 is slidably disposed inside the bearing housing 1. The restraining frame 23 can not only be slidably snapped with the bearing housing 1, but also shield and seal the adjacent spliced ​​plug-in units 2 at the connection point of the bearing housing 1.

[0035] In particular, the plug-in unit 2 also includes a trapezoidal locking block 25, a slot 26, a connecting block 27, and a connecting guide rail 28. The trapezoidal locking block 25 is fixedly connected to the side of the restraint frame 23. The slot 26 is opened at the top of the inner wall of the bearing housing 1. The outer wall of the trapezoidal locking block 25 is slidably engaged with the inner cavity of the slot 26, thereby keeping the restraint frame 23 and the bearing housing 1 in a stable sliding connection state. The connecting block 27 is fixedly connected to the side of the plug-in housing 21. The connecting guide rail 28 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the bearing housing 1. The outer wall of the connecting block 27 is slidably engaged with the connecting guide rail 28, thereby keeping the plug-in housing 21 and the bearing housing 1 in a stable sliding connection state, thereby ensuring the stability of the plug-in unit 2 installed inside the bearing housing 1.

[0036] Furthermore, the plug-in unit 2 also includes a snap-fit ​​frame 29 and a support block 210. The snap-fit ​​frame 29 is fixedly connected to the inside of the restraint frame 23. The top and bottom of the snap-fit ​​frame 29 are respectively attached to the plug-in plate 22 and the plug-in housing 21. The support block 210 is connected to the side of the plug-in housing 21. The top of the support block 210 is slidably snapped into the restraint frame 23. The support block 210 and the snap-fit ​​frame 29 can ensure the stability of the restraint frame 23 when installed between the plug-in housing 21 and the plug-in plate 22.

[0037] Specifically, the plug-in unit 2 also includes a connecting sleeve 211 and a connecting screw 212. The top of the connecting sleeve 211 is fixedly connected to the plug-in plate 22. The bottom of the plug-in housing 21 has a slot corresponding to the connecting screw 212. The outer wall of the connecting screw 212 is threadedly connected to the connecting sleeve 211. The connecting sleeve 211 and the connecting screw 212 can fix the plug-in housing 21, the restraint frame 23 and the plug-in plate 22 in a relatively fixed state. By removing the connecting screw 212, the plug-in housing 21, the restraint frame 23 and the plug-in plate 22 can be disassembled.

[0038] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
