Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of track socket technology, specifically to a safe switching socket. Background Technology

[0002] A power strip is a multi-outlet socket with a cord, also called a power strip or extension cord. It is a movable multi-outlet socket with a power cord and plug. Because the power cord of a power strip is exposed and relatively long, it is inconvenient to use. As a result, more and more people are choosing to use track sockets instead of power strips.

[0003] A track socket is a modern electrical system that consists of two main parts: a power track and a socket adapter (functional module). The power track can be recessed or wall-mounted and draws power from the power track through a dedicated socket adapter (functional module).

[0004] The existing track socket structure has shortcomings: After the existing socket adapter (functional module) is installed on the socket body, it is electrically connected to the conductive sleeve in the socket body through the conductive plate inside the socket adapter (functional module). The socket adapter (functional module) is used to connect existing electrical products. During the use of electrical products, the power needs to be turned on or off, which requires frequent plugging and unplugging, causing inconvenience to users. If users frequently plug and unplug, the connection point between the plug and the socket adapter (functional module) will wear down, leading to poor contact. This will not only affect the normal use of electrical appliances, but may also cause electrical faults and pose safety hazards to users. Utility Model Content

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: compared with the prior art, the structure of this utility model is reasonable. The live wire conductive socket and the live wire terminal block are both welded and fixed to the live wire conductive strip, and the neutral wire conductive socket and the neutral wire terminal block are both welded and fixed to the neutral wire conductive strip.
