Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wall socket technology, and in particular to a wall socket with protective function. Background Technology

[0002] A wall socket is an electrical device installed on a wall for connecting and disconnecting circuits. Its main function is to provide a power interface for various electrical appliances, allowing them to obtain power by plugging into the socket. It typically consists of a panel, current-carrying components (such as copper plates), and insulators, and is installed on the wall for convenient connection and use of appliances. The protective functions of a wall socket are designed to ensure user safety and the normal operation of equipment, preventing accidents caused by circuit faults, external damage, or environmental factors. It also serves to prevent electric shock, provide dust and water protection, and enhance overall safety.

[0003] Most existing wall sockets use transparent protective covers for protection. However, these covers are not fully closed to continue protecting the plug and socket after the plug is inserted, which is a flaw in the protection measures. Furthermore, the covers are easily affected by external factors, making the protection of the socket and plug inadequate and requiring improvement.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a wall socket with protective functions to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and propose a wall socket with protective function. The socket body can be protected when the socket is in use, which improves the protective capability of the protective mechanism and enhances the fixation of the protective mechanism.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A protective wall socket includes a protective mechanism, with fixing mechanisms fixedly installed on both sides of the protective mechanism. The protective mechanism includes a horizontal connecting plate, with protective shells fixedly installed on both sides of the horizontal connecting plate. A groove is provided on one side of each of the two protective shells, and a connecting vertical plate is fixedly installed on both sides of each of the two protective shells.

[0008] The fixing mechanism includes a first fixing plate, hollow blocks are fixedly arranged on both sides of the first fixing plate, sliding rods are slidably connected inside the two hollow blocks, and sliding blocks are fixedly connected to one end of the two sliding rods.

[0009] Furthermore, the protective mechanism is internally slidably connected to a socket body, and the socket body has T-shaped grooves on both sides.

[0010] Furthermore, connecting rods are fixedly installed at both ends of the transverse connecting plate, and a fixing block is fixedly installed at one end of each of the two connecting rods.

[0011] Furthermore, connecting blocks are fixedly provided on the inner side of the multiple connecting vertical plates, and sliders are fixedly provided on both sides of the multiple connecting blocks.

[0012] Furthermore, a pull block is fixedly provided at one end of each of the two sliding rods, and a spring is fixedly provided on the surface of each of the two sliding rods.

[0013] Furthermore, the two sliding blocks are fitted with connecting posts, and each of the two connecting posts has a fixing groove on one side of its bottom end.

[0014] Furthermore, a double-hole connecting block is slidably connected to the surface of the two connecting columns, and a second fixing plate is fixedly installed at one end of the two connecting columns.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. This utility model proposes a wall socket with protective function. By setting a protective mechanism, when a plug is to be inserted, the fixing mechanism can be opened, and then the protective shell can be pushed upward. Due to gravity, the lower protective shell will automatically fall down along the T-shaped groove through the sliders on both sides. Then, the plug is inserted into the socket. Then, the upper protective shell is released, and the protective shell falls down automatically. Then, the lower protective shell is slid upward, and then the fixing mechanism is fixed. The power cord of the plug will extend from the two grooves. The socket body can also be protected when the socket is in use, thus improving the protective capability of the protective mechanism.

[0017] 2. This utility model proposes a wall socket with protective function. By setting up a fixing mechanism, when inserting a plug, first pull the pull blocks on both sides of the fixing mechanism. At the same time as pulling the pull blocks, the sliding rod will move with the pull blocks. When the sliding rod moves, it will drive the sliding block to move together. When the sliding block moves, the spring is compressed. As the sliding block moves, the sliding block moves out of the fixing groove. Then, the protective shell of the protective mechanism can be slid up to separate the protective shell. When fixing, simply pull out the pull block, move the connecting post to the upper surface of the first fixing plate, and then release the pull block. The pull block will be elastically pushed into the fixing groove of the connecting post by the spring force to fix it, which effectively improves the fixation of the protective mechanism.

[0028] A wall socket with protective function includes a protective mechanism 1, a fixing mechanism 2 fixedly installed on both sides of the protective mechanism 1, a socket body 3 slidably connected inside the protective mechanism 1, and T-shaped sliding grooves 4 opened on both sides of the socket body 3.

[0029] Specifically, the protection mechanism 1 is used to provide overall protection for the socket, the fixing mechanism 2 is used to fix the protection mechanism 1 during the protection process, the socket body 3 is used to insert the plug, and the T-shaped sliding grooves 4 on both sides are used to facilitate the sliding of the protection mechanism 1.

[0030] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5The protection mechanism 1 includes a horizontal connecting plate 103, with protective shells 101 fixedly installed on both sides of the horizontal connecting plate 103. A groove 102 is opened on one side of each of the two protective shells 101. A connecting vertical plate 104 is fixedly installed on both sides of the two protective shells 101. A connecting rod 107 is fixedly installed at both ends of the horizontal connecting plate 103. A fixing block 108 is fixedly installed at one end of each of the two connecting rods 107. A connecting block 105 is fixedly installed inside the multiple connecting vertical plates 104. A slider 106 is fixedly installed on both sides of the multiple connecting blocks 105.

[0031] Specifically, the horizontal connecting plate 103 is used to fix the connecting rods 107 on both sides, the connecting rods 107 are used to connect the fixing block 108, the fixing block 108 is used to fix in the T-shaped slide groove 4, the protective shell 101 is used to protect the surface of the socket body 3, the groove 102 on one side of the two protective shells 101 is used to facilitate the extension of the plug's connecting wire, the connecting vertical plate 104 is used to fix the connecting block 105, and the fixing sliders 106 on both sides of the connecting block 105 are used to facilitate sliding in the T-shaped slide groove 4.

[0032] Reference Figure 6 The fixing mechanism 2 includes a first fixing plate 201. Hollow blocks 205 are fixedly arranged on both sides of the first fixing plate 201. Sliding rods 202 are slidably connected inside the two hollow blocks 205. Sliding blocks 207 are fixedly connected to one end of the two sliding rods 202. Pull blocks 206 are fixedly arranged to one end of the two sliding rods 202. Springs 203 are fixedly arranged on the surface of the two sliding rods 202. Connecting posts 209 are snapped onto the two sliding blocks 207. Fixing grooves 204 are opened on one bottom end of the two connecting posts 209. Double-hole connecting blocks 208 are slidably connected to the surface of the two connecting posts 209. A second fixing plate 210 is fixedly arranged to one end of the two connecting posts 209.

[0033] Specifically, the first fixing plate 201 is used to fix the hollow blocks 205 on both sides. When the pull block 206 is pulled, the sliding rod 202 drives the sliding block 207 to compress the spring 203. The sliding rod 202 is used to drive the sliding block 207 to move. The sliding block 207 is used to fix the connecting post 209. The double-hole connecting block 208 is used to facilitate the movement of the connecting post 209.

[0034] Working principle: When inserting the plug, first pull the pull blocks 206 on both sides of the fixing mechanism 2. While pulling the pull blocks 206, the sliding rod 202 will move with the pull blocks 206. When the sliding rod 202 moves, it will drive the sliding block 207 to move together. When the sliding block 207 moves, the spring 203 is compressed. As the sliding block 207 moves, the sliding block 207 moves out of the fixing groove 204. Then slide the protective shell 101 of the protection mechanism 1 up to separate the protective shell 101. When fixing, simply pull out the pull block 206, move the connecting post 209 to the upper surface of the first fixing plate 201, and then release the pull block 206. The sliding block 207 will be pushed into the fixing groove 204 of the connecting post 209 by the elastic force of the spring 203 for fixing, which effectively improves the fixation of the protection mechanism 1.

[0035] Secondly, after opening the fixing mechanism 2, push the protective shell 101 upwards. The lower protective shell 101 will automatically fall down along the T-shaped slide groove 4 due to gravity via the sliders 106 on both sides. Then insert the plug into the socket body 3, release the upper protective shell 101, and the protective shell 101 will fall down automatically. Slide the lower protective shell 101 upwards, and then fix the fixing mechanism 2. The power cord of the plug will extend from the two grooves 102, which can also protect the socket body 3 when the socket is in use, thus improving the protection capability of the protection mechanism 1.

[0036] 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.
