[0018] 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, not all embodiments. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are all within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0019] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a socket 10, which includes a wall 11 and an interface component 12. The wall 11 is provided with a first positioning structure 111. The interface component 12 is at least partially disposed inside the wall 11. The interface component 12 is provided with a second positioning structure 121. The first positioning structure 111 is adapted to the second positioning structure 121 for positioning the interface component 12.

[0020] The socket 10 proposed in this embodiment of the utility model has a first positioning structure 111 set in the enclosure 11 and a second positioning structure 121 set in the interface component 12. The cooperation of the first positioning structure 111 and the second positioning structure 121 can play a positioning role when the interface component 12 is installed in the enclosure 11, which reduces the assembly difficulty of the interface component 12 and thus improves the assembly efficiency.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, in some embodiments, the enclosure 11 has first through holes 112 on opposite sides, and the interface component 12 has a second through hole 122. When the second positioning structure 121 and the first positioning structure 111 are engaged, the second through hole 122 is directly opposite the first through hole 112. The socket 10 also has a fastener 13, which passes through the first through hole 112 and the second through hole 122 to fasten the interface component 12 to the enclosure 11. In this embodiment, by providing first through holes 112 on opposite sides of the enclosure 11 and second through holes 122 for the interface component 12, when installing the interface component 12 on the enclosure 11, it is only necessary to insert the interface component 12 into the enclosure 11 and then pass the fastener 13 through the first through hole 112 and the second through hole 122 to fasten the interface component 12 and the enclosure 11 together. The installation of the interface component 12 is very simple and convenient. Furthermore, by providing a first positioning structure 111 on the inner wall of the enclosure 11 and a second positioning structure 121 on the interface component 12, the assembler only needs to insert the interface component 12 into the second positioning structure 121 to align with the first positioning structure 111. At this time, the second through hole 122 is aligned with the first through hole 112, eliminating the need to adjust the position of the interface component 12 back and forth during installation to align the second through hole 122 with the first through hole 112. This reduces the assembly difficulty of the interface component 12 and thus improves assembly efficiency.

[0022] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the first positioning structure 111 is disposed on the inner wall surface of the enclosure 11, and the second positioning structure 121 is disposed on the outer wall surface of the interface assembly 12. The first positioning structure 111 includes a recess 1111, and the second positioning structure 121 includes a protrusion 1211. It should be noted that the positions of the recess 1111 and the protrusion 1211 can be interchanged; that is, the first positioning structure 111 can include a protrusion 1211, and the second positioning structure 121 can include a recess 1111. The specific arrangement can be determined according to actual design requirements.

[0023] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the enclosure 11 includes a first end and a second end opposite to the first end. The first positioning structure 111 includes a recess 1111, which extends from the end face of the first end of the enclosure 11 toward the second end of the enclosure 11. It should be noted that the recess 1111 is not limited to extending from the end face of the first end of the enclosure 11 toward the second end of the enclosure 11. For example, in some other embodiments, the recess 1111 extends from the end face of the second end of the enclosure 11 toward the first end of the enclosure 11. Furthermore, in some other embodiments, both the end face of the first end and the end face of the second end of the enclosure 11 are provided with recesses 1111.

[0024] like Figure 3As shown, in some embodiments, a chamfer 113 is provided on the inner side of the first end of the enclosure 11 to facilitate the installation of the interface assembly 12.

[0025] In some embodiments, at least one recess 1111 is provided.

[0026] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the enclosure 11 includes a first side panel 114, a second side panel 115, a third side panel 116, and a fourth side panel 117. The first side panel 114 and the second side panel 115 are arranged opposite to each other, and the third side panel 116 and the fourth side panel 117 are arranged opposite to each other. The first side panel 114 and the second side panel 115 are each provided with at least one recess 1111, and the third side panel 116 and the fourth side panel 117 are each provided with at least one recess 1111.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, two recesses 1111 are provided on the first side plate 114, two recesses 1111 are provided on the second side plate 115, one recess 1111 is provided on the third side plate 116, and one recess 1111 is provided on the fourth side plate 117.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the interface component 12 includes a first segment 123 and a second segment 124 connected to the first segment 123, a second through hole 122 is disposed in the first segment 123 of the interface component 12, and a second positioning structure 121 is disposed in the second segment 124 of the interface component 12.

[0029] It should be noted that the positions of the second through hole 122 and the second positioning structure 121 can be interchanged. That is, the second through hole 122 can be set in the second segment 124 of the interface component 12, and the second positioning structure 121 can be set in the first segment 123 of the interface component 12. The specific location can be determined according to the actual design requirements.

[0030] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the interface component 12 includes at least two interface terminals 125, and two adjacent interface terminals 125 are connected by one of the following connection methods: snap-fit ​​connection, threaded connection, adhesive connection, welding, hot-melt connection, and socket connection.

[0031] It should be noted that the interface component 12 is not limited to including at least two interface terminals 125. For example, in some other embodiments, the interface component 12 may also be a separate component, depending on the actual design requirements.

[0032] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the interface terminal 125 includes a first side 1251, a second side 1252, a third side 1253, and a fourth side 1254. The first side 1251 and the second side 1252 are disposed opposite each other, and the third side 1253 and the fourth side 1254 are disposed opposite each other. The first side 1251 and the third side 1253 are provided with protrusions 1211, and the second side 1252 and the fourth side 1254 are provided with slots 1255. The slots 1255 are adapted to the protrusions 1211, so that two adjacent interface terminals 125 can be spliced ​​together through the cooperation of the protrusions 1211 and the slots 1255. With this embodiment, multiple interface terminals 125 can be spliced ​​together for use according to actual usage requirements, making the configuration of the interface assembly 12 highly flexible.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, each interface terminal 125 has a through groove 1256 on its third side 1253 and fourth side 1254. The through groove 1256 extends from the first side 1251 to the second side 1252. When the third side 1253 of one interface terminal 125 is joined to the fourth side 1254 of the other interface terminal 125, the through grooves 1256 of the two interface terminals 125 together form a second through hole 122. In this embodiment, when the fastener 13 passes through the second through hole 122, it can simultaneously fix the two interface terminals 125, reducing the assembly difficulty of the interface assembly 12 and thus improving assembly efficiency.

[0034] It should be noted that the second through hole 122 is not limited to being formed by the through slots 1256 of the two interface terminals 125. For example, in some other embodiments, the second through hole 122 can also be set on a single interface terminal 125. The specific configuration can be determined according to the actual design requirements.

[0035] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the cross-sectional profile of the protrusion 1211 is trapezoidal, and the cross-sectional profile of the slot 1255 is trapezoidal. In this embodiment, by setting both the cross-sectional profiles of the protrusion 1211 and the slot 1255 to trapezoidal, the protrusion 1211 can be embedded within the slot 1255, allowing the two interface terminals 125 to be securely connected together. Of course, the cross-sectional profiles of the protrusion 1211 and the slot 1255 are not limited to being trapezoidal. For example, in other embodiments, the cross-sectional profiles of the protrusion 1211 and the slot 1255 can also be circular or polygonal, depending on the actual design requirements.

[0036] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the first side plate 114 and the second side plate 115 are provided with a first through hole 112. It should be noted that the first through hole 112 is not limited to the first side plate 114 and the second side plate 115. For example, in some other embodiments, the first through hole 112 can be provided on the third side plate 116 and the fourth side plate 117. Furthermore, in some other embodiments, the first side plate 114, the second side plate 115, the third side plate 116, and the fourth side plate 117 are all provided with a first through hole 112.

[0037] In some embodiments, interface component 12 includes two Anderson single-stage connectors.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention also proposes an energy storage device, which includes a housing and the aforementioned socket 10. The housing includes a side wall 21, the side wall 21 is provided with a mounting hole 211, and the surrounding wall 11 surrounds the edge of the mounting hole 211 to form an assembly cavity. The interface assembly 12 is disposed in the assembly cavity.

[0039] The energy storage device proposed in this embodiment, due to the use of the aforementioned socket 10, has the advantage that the cooperation of the first positioning structure 111 and the second positioning structure 121 can play a positioning role when the interface component 12 is installed inside the enclosure 11, reducing the assembly difficulty of the interface component 12 and thus improving the assembly efficiency.

[0040] In some embodiments, the sidewall 21 and the enclosure wall 11 are integrally formed. Of course, in other embodiments, the sidewall 21 and the enclosure wall 11 can also be separately arranged and assembled together by mechanical connection, depending on the actual design requirements.

[0041] In some embodiments, the energy storage device further includes an energy storage module disposed inside the housing, and the interface component 12 includes a terminal and an interface terminal, the terminal being electrically connected to the energy storage module.

[0042] In some embodiments, the energy storage device further includes an electrical connection interface and an energy storage module. The electrical connection interface includes at least one or more of a USB interface, an AV port, a DC interface, and a cigarette lighter port. The electrical connection interface is connected to the energy storage module.

[0043] In some embodiments, the energy storage device further includes a lighting device, which includes at least one or more of LED lamps, incandescent lamps, fluorescent lamps, magnesium lamps, xenon lamps, high-pressure pump lamps, high-pressure sodium lamps, and halogen lamps. The lighting device is disposed within the housing and is capable of providing illumination.

[0044] In some embodiments, the energy storage device further includes an ignition device disposed within the housing for emergency vehicle starting.

[0045] The connection relationships, extended descriptions, and beneficial effects of other structures of the socket 10 of the energy storage device proposed in this embodiment can be referred to the above-described implementation method, and will not be repeated here.
