Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of AC products, and in particular to a reverse-folding AC plug structure. Background Technology
[0002] AC product pins are usually exposed and perpendicular to the bottom surface, making them difficult to store and prone to damage, which can affect the overall connection of the AC product. Alternatively, the pins may not look aesthetically pleasing when mounted on a large flat surface. Therefore, a reverse-folding AC pin structure is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] A reverse-folding AC plug structure includes a housing and a connecting cover vertically mounted on one side of the housing. A plug flip seat is provided on one side of the top of the housing, and plugs are provided at both the front and rear ends of the plug flip seat. The plugs and the plug flip seat move in the same direction. A storage groove is formed on the other side of the top of the housing, and the storage groove is recessed downward.
[0005] Preferably, a limiting plate is provided between the housing and the pin flip seat, and the limiting plates are all located laterally on both sides of the top of the housing, and the pin flip seat can be flexibly flipped between the limiting plates.
[0006] Preferably, a cam gear is provided between the pin flipping seat and the limiting plate, and the cam gears are located on both sides of the pin flipping seat. The cam gears mesh with the limiting plate and move in the same direction as the pin flipping seat. A concave gear is provided between the cam gear and the limiting plate, and the concave gears are located on one side of the limiting plate. The cam gears mesh with each other.
[0007] Preferably, a connecting shaft is provided between the pin flipping seat and the cam gear, and the connecting shaft is located laterally on both sides of the pin flipping seat, and the other end of the connecting shaft is coaxially connected to the cam gear.
[0008] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the plug flip-top can be folded in a direction, so that the plug flip-top and the plug are horizontally hidden inside the storage slot, or when the plug is to be used, the plug flip-top and the plug placed horizontally inside the storage slot can be folded upwards, so that the plug flip-top and the plug are vertically located at the top of the housing, so that the plug can be connected to the external socket.
[0009] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0016] 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, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Please see Figure 1-4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a reverse-folding AC plug structure includes a housing 1 and a connecting cover 2 vertically mounted on one side of the housing 1. A plug flip seat 3 is provided on one side of the top of the housing 1, and plugs 4 are provided at both the front and rear ends of one side of the plug flip seat 3. The plugs 4 and the plug flip seat 3 move in the same direction. A storage groove 5 is formed on the other side of the top of the housing 1, and the storage groove 5 is recessed downward. The plugs 4 can be folded in the direction of the plug flip seat 3, so that the plug flip seat 3 and the plugs 4 are horizontally hidden inside the storage groove 5. Or, when the plugs 4 are to be used, the plug flip seat 3 and the plugs 4 placed horizontally inside the storage groove 5 can be folded upward, so that the plug flip seat 3 and the plugs 4 are vertically located at the top of the housing 1, so that the plugs 4 can be connected to an external socket.
[0018] A limiting plate 6 is provided between the housing 1 and the pin flipping seat 3, and the limiting plates 6 are all located laterally on both sides of the top inside the housing 1. The pin flipping seat 3 can be folded between the limiting plates 6, thereby driving the pin 4 to fold on the housing 1 through the movable cooperation between the pin flipping seat 3 and the limiting plates 6.
[0019] A convex gear 7 is provided between the pin flipping seat 3 and the limiting plate 6, and the convex gear 7 is located on both sides of the pin flipping seat 3. The convex gear 7 meshes with the limiting plate 6 and moves in the same direction as the pin flipping seat 3. A concave gear 9 is provided between the convex gear 7 and the limiting plate 6, and the concave gear 9 is located on one side of the limiting plate 6. The convex gear 7 and the concave gear 9 mesh with each other. Through the meshing between the convex gear 7 and the concave gear 9, the pin flipping seat 3, together with the pin 4, can be flexibly flipped on the housing 1.
[0020] A connecting shaft 8 is provided between the pin flipping seat 3 and the cam gear 7. The connecting shaft 8 is located laterally on both sides of the pin flipping seat 3. The other end of the connecting shaft 8 is coaxially connected to the cam gear 7. Thus, when the cam gear 7 and the concave gear 9 mesh and drive through the connecting shaft 8, the pin flipping seat 3 and the pin 4 are moved and flipped on the housing 1.
[0021] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered exemplary and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
