Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart socket technology, specifically an energy-saving socket with WIFI hotspot function. Background Technology

[0002] Energy-saving sockets are simply sockets that save electricity. Smart energy-saving sockets are a transformation and upgrade of traditional sockets. They add detection devices to traditional sockets to automatically track the power consumption of electrical equipment and promptly and effectively turn the power on or off, achieving the dual benefits of saving energy and protecting electrical equipment. Nowadays, smart energy-saving sockets are usually divided into metering sockets, timer sockets, and remote control sockets. Among them, remote control sockets can be controlled by wireless signals such as Bluetooth and WiFi, and can be set to turn on and off, timer and other operations through a mobile APP.

[0003] While many high-power appliances, such as televisions, washing machines, water dispensers, and electric water heaters, can be manually turned off, most remain in standby mode, or water dispensers and electric water heaters operate 24 / 7, resulting in high energy consumption. By installing smart energy-saving sockets, the power-on time of the sockets can be remotely set via a mobile app. For example, appliances such as water dispensers and electric water heaters can be powered on before leaving get off work and turned off before leaving for work, effectively reducing energy consumption and achieving energy-saving effects. Although smart energy-saving sockets also consume energy during this period, their power consumption is low, and their static and dynamic energy consumption is very low, far lower than the standby and operating energy consumption of high-power household appliances.

[0004] Existing smart energy-saving sockets usually have a control button. The control button can be operated by shorting or longing to manually turn the socket on and off, reset the WiFi, etc. However, the control button is exposed and the bent wire can easily squeeze the control button. For example, cleaning may cause the cable to bend, or moving the appliance may cause the cable to bend. This is especially true in environments with many cables around, which can easily affect the normal use of the socket. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an energy-saving socket with WIFI hotspot function to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an energy-saving socket with WIFI hotspot function, including a smart socket, wherein the smart socket is provided with a control button and a limit block at the bottom; guide frames are connected to both sides of the bottom of the smart socket, and bolts pass through both sides of the bottom of the guide frames; a baffle is connected between the two guide frames, and a spring is connected between the baffle and the guide frame; a pin passes through the lower surface of the outer surface of the baffle, and a buckle plate, a torsion spring and a retaining spring are respectively sleeved on the outside of the pin.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the user presses the control button, the user first presses the right side of the buckle plate, causing the left side of the buckle plate to rotate downwards and separate from the limiting block. Then, the user pushes the buckle plate to the right, causing the baffle to move horizontally, thus exposing the control button. After the control button is exposed, the left side of the buckle plate corresponds to the control button, as shown in the figure. Therefore, the user only needs to change from pressing the right side of the buckle plate to pressing the left side, causing the left side of the buckle plate to rotate upwards and press the control button. After pressing, the user only needs to release their hand, and the spring pushes the baffle to the left, causing the buckle plate to move to the left. After the baffle moves to the left, it re-covers the control button, and the bottom of the control button is also covered by the baffle, and the pre-tightened mechanism... The spring continuously applies force to the baffle, keeping it closed and effectively reducing the possibility of surrounding objects pressing on the control button, causing the smart socket to shut down or the WiFi to be reset. After the buckle moves to the left, it contacts the ramp on the side of the limiting block, causing the buckle to rotate under force. When the buckle continues to move to the left, it is driven to reverse by the torsion spring, causing the buckle to latch onto the other side of the limiting block. The pre-tightened torsion spring applies force to the buckle, causing it to abut against the limiting plate, thus limiting the baffle and reducing the possibility of surrounding objects pushing the baffle to move. The control button can only be exposed by pressing the buckle to contact the limiting plate and then sliding the baffle. The complex movement trajectory improves the protection effect and effectively reduces the possibility of surrounding objects pressing on the control button.

[0008] Furthermore, the baffle is slidably connected to the guide frame, and the length and width of the baffle are greater than the diameter of the control button.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the control button is blocked by a baffle, and a pre-tightened spring continuously applies force to the baffle to keep it closed. This effectively reduces the occurrence of surrounding objects pressing on the control button, causing the smart socket to shut down or the WiFi to be reset.

[0010] Furthermore, the buckle plate is rotatably connected to the pin shaft, and the two ends of the torsion spring are in contact with the baffle and the buckle plate respectively.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the buckle plate continues to move to the left, it is driven to reverse by the torsion spring, so that the buckle plate latches onto the other side of the limiting block, thereby completing the limiting of the structure.

[0012] Furthermore, the buckle plate has an "L" shaped cross section, and the buckle plate abuts against the control button and the limit block respectively.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the pre-tightened torsion spring applies force to the buckle plate, causing the buckle plate to abut against the limiting plate, thereby limiting the baffle and reducing the phenomenon of surrounding objects pushing the baffle to move. It is necessary to press the buckle plate to contact the limiting plate before sliding the baffle to expose the control button. The complex movement trajectory improves the protection effect and effectively reduces the phenomenon of surrounding objects squeezing the control button.

[0014] Furthermore, the side of the limiting block closest to the control button is sloped.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, after the buckle moves to the left, it contacts the slope on the side of the limiting block, causing the buckle to rotate under force. When the buckle continues to move to the left, it is driven to reverse by the torsion spring, so that the buckle latches onto the other side of the limiting block.

[0016] Furthermore, the smart socket has a slot on its outer surface and a plug installed on its back.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, users only need to plug the plug into the wall socket in the room, and then plug the power cord of the appliance into the slot.

[0018] Furthermore, the guide frame is detachably connected to the smart socket via bolts, and the pin is detachably connected to the baffle via a snap ring.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when the structure is damaged, the staff first removes the bolts to remove the two guide frames. Then the staff can directly remove the baffle and spring from between the two guide frames. After that, the staff uses tools to remove the snap ring and pin in sequence, so that the buckle plate and torsion spring can be separated, which makes it easy to replace these structures. The installation operation process is the reverse of the disassembly operation process.

[0020] Furthermore, a protrusion is fixed on one side of the bottom of the buckle plate, and an anti-slip pad is connected to the bottom of the buckle plate.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the friction between the user's fingers and the buckle is increased by the anti-slip pad, and the protrusions also abut against the user's fingers, effectively preventing the user's fingers from slipping and affecting operation when pushing the buckle to the right.

[0022] Furthermore, the anti-slip mat is made of silicone material, and the surface of the anti-slip mat is provided with anti-slip texture.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solutions, silicone rubber has the characteristics of high surface friction coefficient and high temperature resistance, which can be used for a long time. Combined with anti-slip texture, it can improve friction and effectively reduce slippage.

[0024] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0025] 1. This utility model uses a guide frame, a baffle, and a spring. The baffle blocks the bottom of the control button, and the pre-tensioned spring continuously applies force to the baffle to keep it closed. This effectively reduces the occurrence of surrounding objects pressing on the control button, which could cause the smart socket to shut down or the WiFi to be reset. The blocking also prevents accidental touches.

[0026] 2. This utility model, through the setting of a buckle plate, a torsion spring, and a limiting block, applies force to the buckle plate through the pre-tightened torsion spring, causing the buckle plate to abut against the limiting plate, thereby limiting the baffle and reducing the phenomenon of surrounding objects pushing the baffle to move. It is necessary to press the buckle plate to contact the limiting of the baffle first, and then slide the baffle to expose the control button. The complex movement trajectory improves the protection effect and effectively reduces the phenomenon of surrounding objects squeezing the control button; improves structural stability and protection.

[0027] 3. This utility model, through the design of the buckle plate and control button, allows for manual pressing of the control button. First, pressing the right side of the buckle plate causes the left side to rotate downwards and separate from the limiting block. Then, pushing the buckle plate causes the baffle to move horizontally, exposing the control button. At this point, the left side of the buckle plate corresponds to the control button. Therefore, simply changing from pressing the right side to pressing the left side causes the left side of the buckle plate to rotate upwards and press against the control button. After pressing, simply release the hand. The spring pushes the baffle to the left, causing the buckle plate to move to the left. After the baffle moves to the left, it covers the control button again. The buckle plate then contacts the slope on the side of the limiting block, causing it to rotate under force. As the buckle plate continues to move to the left, it is driven by the torsion spring to reverse, causing the buckle plate to latch onto the other side of the limiting block. Operation can be completed with one hand, making the structure simple and convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0035] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0036] Example 1:

[0037] An energy-saving socket with WIFI hotspot function, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the device includes a smart socket 1. A control button 4 and a limiting block 13 are located at the bottom of the smart socket 1. The limiting block 13 is sloped on the side closest to the control button 4. Guide frames 5 are connected to both sides of the bottom of the smart socket 1, and bolts 6 pass through both sides of the bottom of each guide frame 5. A baffle 7 connects the two guide frames 5, and the baffle 7 is slidably connected to the guide frames 5. The length and width of the baffle 7 are greater than the diameter of the control button 4. A spring 8 connects the baffle 7 to the guide frames 5. A pin 11 passes through the lower outer surface of the baffle 7, and clip plates 9 are respectively sleeved on the outside of the pin 11. The torsion spring 10 and retaining spring 12, and the buckle plate 9 have an "L"-shaped cross-section. The buckle plate 9 is rotatably connected to the pin 11. The two ends of the torsion spring 10 contact the baffle 7 and the buckle plate 9 respectively. The buckle plate 9 abuts against the control button 4 and the limit block 13 respectively. When the user presses the control button 4, the user first presses the right side of the buckle plate 9, causing the left side of the buckle plate 9 to rotate downward and separate from the limit block 13. Then, the user pushes the buckle plate 9 to the right, causing the baffle 7 to be moved horizontally, thereby exposing the control button 4. After the control button 4 is exposed, the left side of the buckle plate 9 corresponds to the control button 4, such as... Figure 2As shown in the diagram, the user simply needs to change from pressing the right side of the snap plate 9 to pressing the left side of the snap plate 9, causing the left side of the snap plate 9 to rotate upwards and press against the control button 4, thus pressing the control button 4. After pressing, the user simply needs to release their hand, and the spring 8 will push the baffle 7 to the left, thereby causing the snap plate 9 to move to the left. After the baffle 7 moves to the left, it will cover the control button 4 again. The baffle 7 also covers the bottom of the control button 4, and the pre-tensioned spring 8 continuously applies force to the baffle 7 to keep the baffle 7 in a closed state, thereby effectively reducing the risk of surrounding objects pressing against the control button 4, which could cause the smart socket 1 to shut down or the WiFi to be reset. The phenomenon occurs: After the buckle plate 9 moves to the left, it contacts the slope on the side of the limiting block 13, causing the buckle plate 9 to rotate under force. When the buckle plate 9 continues to move to the left, it is driven to reverse by the torsion spring 10, causing the buckle plate 9 to fasten the other side of the limiting block 13. The pre-tightened torsion spring 10 applies force to the buckle plate 9, causing the buckle plate 9 to abut against the limiting plate, thereby limiting the baffle 7 and reducing the phenomenon of surrounding objects pushing the baffle 7 to move. It is necessary to press the buckle plate 9 to contact the limiting of the baffle 7 first, and then slide the baffle 7 to allow the control button 4 to be exposed. The complex movement trajectory improves the protection effect and effectively reduces the phenomenon of surrounding objects squeezing the control button 4.

[0038] See Figures 1-3 In the above embodiment, the smart socket 1 has a slot 2 on its outer surface and a plug 3 installed on its back. When using it for the first time, the user only needs to insert the plug 3 into the wall socket in the room and then insert the power cord of the appliance into the slot 2.

[0039] Example 2:

[0040] Based on the above embodiment one, the following settings are now adopted to facilitate the replacement of damaged structures.

[0041] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the above embodiment, the guide frame 5 is detachably connected to the smart socket 1 by bolts 6, and the pin 11 is detachably connected to the baffle 7 by snap ring 12. When the structure is damaged, the staff first removes the bolts 6 to remove the two guide frames 5. Then the staff can directly remove the baffle 7 and the spring 8 from between the two guide frames 5. After that, the staff uses tools to remove the snap ring 12 and the pin 11 in sequence, so that the buckle 9 and the torsion spring 10 can be separated, which makes it easy to replace these structures. The installation operation process is the reverse of the disassembly operation process.

[0042] Example 3:

[0043] Based on the above embodiment one, the following settings are now implemented to increase operational stability.

[0044] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the above embodiment, a protrusion 15 is fixed on one side of the bottom of the buckle plate 9, and an anti-slip pad 14 is connected to the bottom of the buckle plate 9. The anti-slip pad 14 is made of silicone material and has anti-slip texture on its surface. The anti-slip pad 14 is fixedly connected to the buckle plate 9, which has been sandblasted and primed, by means of silicone rubber adhesive. The anti-slip pad 14 increases the friction between the user's fingers and the buckle plate 9, and the protrusion 15 also abuts against the user's fingers, effectively preventing the user's fingers from slipping and affecting the operation when pushing the buckle plate 9 to the right.

[0045] The implementation principle of this utility model is as follows: First, upon first use, the user only needs to insert the plug 3 into the wall socket in the room, then insert the power cord of the appliance into the slot 2, and then press the control button 4 to turn on the smart socket 1 and scan for and connect to the surrounding WiFi. After that, the user can control the smart socket 1 through a mobile APP, such as setting the on / off time, manual on / off, etc., and some existing smart sockets 1 are designed with a power consumption system that can be viewed through the mobile APP to view the actual power consumption of the appliances connected to the smart socket 1; the smart socket 1 is a well-known product in this field, so this technical solution is only briefly described here;

[0046] When the user presses control button 4, the user first presses the right side of the buckle plate 9, causing the left side of the buckle plate 9 to rotate downwards and separate from the limit block 13. Then, the user pushes the buckle plate 9 to the right, causing the baffle 7 to move horizontally, thus exposing control button 4. During this process, the anti-slip pad 14 increases the friction between the user's fingers and the buckle plate 9, and the protrusion 15 also abuts against the user's fingers, effectively preventing the user's fingers from slipping and affecting operation when pushing the buckle plate 9 to the right. After control button 4 is exposed, the left side of the buckle plate 9 corresponds to control button 4, such as... Figure 2 As shown in the diagram, the user only needs to change from pressing the right side of the buckle plate 9 to pressing the left side of the buckle plate 9, so that the left side of the buckle plate 9 rotates upward to press against the control button 4, thereby pressing the control button 4.

[0047] After pressing, the user simply releases their hand, causing the spring 8 to push the baffle 7 to move to the left, which in turn moves the latch 9 to the left. After the baffle 7 moves to the left, it covers the control button 4 again. The baffle 7 also covers the area below the control button 4, and the pre-tensioned spring 8 continuously applies force to the baffle 7, keeping it in a closed state. This effectively reduces the possibility of surrounding objects pressing on the control button 4, which could cause the smart socket 1 to shut down or the WiFi to be reset. After the latch 9 moves to the left, it contacts the ramp on the side of the limit block 13, causing the latch 9 to rotate under force. When the buckle 9 continues to move to the left, it is driven to reverse by the torsion spring 10, causing the buckle 9 to latch onto the other side of the limiting block 13. The pre-tensioned torsion spring 10 applies force to the buckle 9, causing it to abut against the limiting block, thus limiting the position of the baffle 7 and reducing the possibility of surrounding objects pushing the baffle 7 out of place. The control button 4 can only be exposed after the buckle 9 is pressed to contact the limiting position of the baffle 7 and then the baffle 7 is slid. The complex movement trajectory improves the protective effect and effectively reduces the occurrence of surrounding objects squeezing the control button 4. The direction of movement is... Figure 1 Based on the reference, slot 2 is in front, plug 3 is in the back, limit block 13 is on the left, the direction of limit block 13 is on the right, and smart socket 1 is above.
