Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric track technology, specifically to a conductive socket for electric track. Background Technology
[0002] A power rail is a modern power adapter, typically installed on desktops or walls, to power various electrical appliances and electronic products. Its structure consists of a rail that allows for the flexible installation of multiple sockets (adapters) as needed, making it convenient for users to connect devices and obtain power. This innovative design makes power use more convenient and economical, while effectively reducing the messiness of wiring.
[0003] Existing power rails are equipped with conductive sockets for connecting live and neutral wires. These conductive sockets act as electrical connection sockets, contacting the plug pins to supply power. Currently, the structure of conductive sockets is disclosed in Chinese Patent CN201821608715.5, which describes a conductive socket with heat dissipation holes. This includes a conductive sheet with a left spring integrally formed at its left end and a right spring integrally formed at its right end. The left and right springs form a conductive contact slot. The conductive sheet has multiple first heat dissipation holes. The left spring has a first bend facing right in its middle and multiple second heat dissipation holes. The right spring has a second bend facing left in its middle and multiple third heat dissipation holes. The first bend of the left spring and the second bend of the right spring are symmetrically arranged; the second and third heat dissipation holes are also symmetrically arranged, and each first heat dissipation hole, together with the aligned second and third heat dissipation holes, forms a complete U-shaped heat dissipation hole. The above technical solution involves the left and right springs being integral pieces, resulting in high manufacturing costs and complicated cutting of the entire conductive socket. In addition, the left and right springs form a conductive contact slot, which can easily interfere with each other during the insertion and removal of the plug's conductive contacts (plug pins), reducing the overall lifespan of the conductive track. Furthermore, the clamping force of the left and right springs can easily be too loose or too tight, leading to poor practicality. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a conductive socket for electric rails that has a reasonable structural design, low manufacturing cost, convenient cutting, good clamping force and good practicality.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a conductive socket for an electric rail, comprising a socket body, wherein the socket body is integrally provided with a plurality of upper clamping plates and a plurality of lower clamping plates along the length direction, wherein an upper clamping plate gap is provided between two adjacent upper clamping plates, and a lower clamping plate gap is provided between two adjacent lower clamping plates, wherein the upper clamping plates and the lower clamping plates are staggered or arranged opposite to each other.
[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: a clamping area is formed between the upper clamping piece and the lower clamping piece below, and an expansion opening is formed between the upper clamping piece and the lower clamping piece below;
[0007] The gap between the upper clamping plates is located at the middle position of the lower clamping plates directly below, and the gap between the lower clamping plates is located at the middle position of the upper clamping plates directly above.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: an upper expansion groove is provided at the inner end of each upper clamping plate gap, and the upper expansion groove is connected to the upper clamping plate gap.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: a lower expansion groove is provided at the inner end of each lower clamping plate gap, and the lower expansion groove is connected to the lower clamping plate gap.
[0010] The present invention is further configured such that the socket body is made of copper or an alloy.
[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: both the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate are formed by cutting and bending the insert body.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Compared with the prior art, this utility model has a reasonable structural design. The gap between adjacent clamping plates on the same side allows each clamping plate to form an independent structure. Each clamping plate is integrally set with the socket body, which can provide sufficient elastic clamping force. Adjacent clamping plates are not likely to interfere with each other during the insertion and removal of plug pins (plug conductive contacts), resulting in good clamping force and thus improving the overall life of the conductive socket. Moreover, since each upper clamping plate gap has an upper expansion groove at its inner end, which communicates with the aligned upper clamping plate gap, and each lower clamping plate gap has a lower expansion groove at its inner end, which communicates with the aligned lower clamping plate gap, the conductive socket requires less material and has a lower manufacturing cost. In addition, since each clamping plate gap communicates with the aligned expansion groove, the conductive socket is easy to cut from the connection between the clamping plate gap and the expansion groove, making cutting convenient and practical.
[0013] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. Attached Figure Description

They are used only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0018] See Figures 1 to 3 The present invention discloses a conductive socket for an electric track, comprising a socket body 1. The socket body 1 is integrally provided with a plurality of upper clamping plates 11 and a plurality of lower clamping plates 12 along the length direction. An upper clamping plate gap 13 is provided between two adjacent upper clamping plates 11, and a lower clamping plate gap 14 is provided between two adjacent lower clamping plates 12. The upper clamping plates 11 and the lower clamping plates 12 are staggered or arranged opposite to each other.
[0019] Preferably, a clamping area is formed between the upper clamping piece 11 and the lower clamping piece 12, and an expansion opening is formed between the upper clamping piece 11 and the lower clamping piece 12.
[0020] The upper clamping plate gap 13 is located at the middle position of the lower clamping plate 12 directly below, and the lower clamping plate gap 14 is located at the middle position of the upper clamping plate 11 directly above. With this technical solution, when cutting, if cutting is performed from the upper clamping plate gap 13 or the lower clamping plate gap 14, only half of the aligned clamping plate is cut off. This makes the cutting operation convenient, ensures that the clamping force does not fail, has a reasonable structural design, and provides good clamping force for each clamping plate.
[0021] To make the structural design of this utility model more reasonable, as a preferred embodiment, each upper clamping plate gap 13 is provided with an upper expansion groove 15 at its inner end, and the upper expansion groove 15 is connected to the upper clamping plate gap 13.
[0022] Each lower clamping plate gap 14 has a lower expansion groove 16 at its inner end, which communicates with the lower clamping plate gap 14.
[0023] The socket body 1 is made of copper or an alloy.
[0024] Both the upper clamping plate 11 and the lower clamping plate 12 are formed by cutting and bending the insert body 1.
[0025] In practical applications, the gaps between adjacent clamping plates on the same side allow each clamping plate to form an independent structure. Each clamping plate is integrally set with the socket body, providing sufficient elastic clamping force. Adjacent clamping plates are less likely to interfere with each other during the insertion and removal of plug pins (plug conductive contacts), resulting in good clamping force and thus improving the overall lifespan of the conductive socket. Moreover, since each upper clamping plate gap has an upper expansion groove at its inner end, which communicates with the aligned upper clamping plate gap, and each lower clamping plate gap has a lower expansion groove at its inner end, which communicates with the aligned lower clamping plate gap, the conductive socket requires less material and has lower manufacturing costs. In addition, since each clamping plate gap communicates with the aligned expansion groove, the conductive socket can be easily cut from the connection point between the clamping plate gap and the expansion groove, making cutting convenient and practical.
[0026] The above description of the specific embodiments of this utility model is only used to further illustrate this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-essential improvements and adjustments made to this utility model by technical engineers based on the above description of the utility model shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
