[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket conversion technology, and specifically to a magnetic absorption travel converter. Background technology:

[0002] With economic globalization and the development of convenient transportation, people are traveling more frequently between different countries and regions for tourism, business, visiting relatives and friends, and other activities. Different countries and regions use different socket standards, such as the British Standard, American Standard, European Standard, Australian Standard, and Chinese Standard. In this situation, when people bring electrical appliances with Chinese standard plugs (such as mobile phone chargers and laptop power adapters) to other countries or regions, they will face socket incompatibility issues, making it impossible to use these electrical devices directly.

[0003] To address this issue, multi-national power plug adapters have emerged. In related technologies, multi-national adapters typically consist of an adapter body and multiple different types of plugs, such as British standard plugs, American standard plugs, European standard plugs, and Australian standard plugs. Users can select the corresponding plug based on the socket standard of their environment and detachably install it onto the adapter body. For example, Chinese Patent Publication CN205543600U describes an adapter that centrally houses different types of plug components within a housing, allowing users to select and eject different plug modules from the housing via an operating mechanism. However, because all different types of plugs are concentrated within the housing, it not only results in a heavy and bulky overall weight, making them prone to falling off the socket during use, but also creates an overly compact internal space, affecting heat dissipation during operation.

[0004] In view of the above, the inventors propose the following technical solution. Utility Model Content:

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0028] See Figures 1 to 8As shown, a magnetic absorption travel converter includes: a socket body 1 and multiple plug assemblies 2 that are detachably mounted on the socket body 1 and electrically connected to it; the socket body 1 is provided with plug mounting slots 3 for engaging and electrically connecting with the plug assemblies 2, and multiple storage slots 4 for storing the plug assemblies 2, wherein a locking device 5 is provided beside the plug mounting slot 3 for locking the plug assembly 2 in place; a first conductive pin 31 and a second conductive pin 32 are provided in the plug mounting slot 3, and a first conductive part 21 and a second conductive part 22 are provided on the plug assembly 2 for contacting and conducting electricity with the first conductive pin 31 and the second conductive pin 32. By making the socket body 1 and the plug module 2 detachable, and using the locking device 5 for quick disassembly of the plug module 2, different types of plug modules 2 can be quickly replaced, thereby reducing the volume during use. This not only avoids the problem of easy detachment due to excessive weight, but also improves heat dissipation and prevents the converter from burning out due to high temperature. Secondly, multiple storage slots 4 are provided on the socket body 1 to store different types of plug components 2, enabling users to carry different styles of plug components 2 and thus facilitating their travel needs. Furthermore, current adapters on the market do not have the function of storing plug components 2 that are about to be replaced, leading to the easy loss of plug components 2 after replacement. This invention avoids the problem of easily losing plug components 2 by adding multiple storage slots 4 to the socket body 1 to place replaced or unused plug components 2. Magnets are also installed in the storage slots 4 to ensure that the plug components 2 will not fall out after being placed in the storage slots 4.

[0029] A folding stand 6 is provided on one side of the plug mounting slot 3 to cooperate with the plug assembly 2 to form a three-prong plug and to be folded and stored. One end of the folding stand 6 is hinged to the socket body 1, and the socket body 1 is provided with a receiving groove 11 located on one side of the folding stand 6 to accommodate it. The side wall of the receiving groove 11 is provided with a wedge 111 for fixing the folding stand in place. By providing the folding stand 6 on the side of the plug mounting slot 3, and using the folding stand 6 to cooperate with the plug assembly 2 to install it on a socket with a three-prong hole, the stability of using different types of plug assemblies 2 is improved.

[0030] The plug assembly 2 has a slot 23 on at least one side wall for engaging with the plug mounting slot 3, and the locking device 5 is pressed against the slot 23 to lock the plug assembly 2.

[0031] A positioning device 7, capable of elastically pressing against the slot 23, is also provided on the side wall of the plug mounting slot 3. This positioning device 7 and the locking device 5 press against both sides of the plug assembly 2. The positioning device 7 includes a T-shaped block 71 floatingly disposed on one side of the plug mounting slot 3 and a third return spring 72 disposed within the socket body 1 to push out the T-shaped block 71. The top of the T-shaped block 71 has a rounded chamfer. By using the positioning device 7 on the side of the plug mounting slot 3 in conjunction with the locking device 5 to secure the plug assembly 2, the stability of the plug assembly 2 during use is improved. The rounded chamfer on the top of the T-shaped block 71 facilitates the installation and removal of the plug assembly 2.

[0032] The socket body 1 is provided with at least one socket 12, at least one USB port 13, and at least one USB-C port 14. The socket body 1 is also provided with a control switch 15.

[0033] The plug assembly 2 is available in three different types, and the socket body 1 has three storage slots 4 for storing different types of plug assemblies 2. The plug assembly 2 includes European standard plugs, American standard plugs, and British standard plugs, wherein the two prongs of the American standard plug can be deflected to Australian standard.

[0034] The storage slot 4 is equipped with a first magnet block that adsorbs and fixes the plug assembly 2, and the plug assembly 2 is equipped with a second magnet block that matches the first magnet block. By setting the first magnet block and the second magnet block in the storage slot 4 and the plug assembly 2 respectively, the first magnet block and the second magnet block attract each other, so that the plug assembly 2 can be stably stored in the storage slot 4, preventing the plug assembly 2 from falling out of the storage slot 4 during carrying and avoiding the plug assembly 2 from being lost or misplaced.

[0035] The locking device 5 includes a mounting base 51 disposed within the socket body 1, a wedge-shaped slider 52 slidably disposed on the mounting base 51 and having one end capable of extending into the plug mounting slot 3 to engage with the plug assembly 2, a first return spring 53 disposed within the socket body 1 for pushing out the wedge-shaped slider 52, a pressing button 54 floatingly disposed on the socket body 1 for pushing the wedge-shaped slider 52 out of the plug mounting slot 3, and a second return spring 55 disposed within the socket body 1 for pushing out the pressing button 54. The wedge-shaped slider 52 is perpendicular to the movement direction of the pressing button 54. The wedge-shaped slider 52 is provided with a first inclined surface 521 for corresponding contact with the pressing button 54. The pressing button 54 is provided with a second inclined surface 541 corresponding to the first inclined surface 521. Both sides of the plug assembly 2 are provided with slots 23 for engaging with the wedge-shaped slider 52.

[0036] In summary, when not in use, the plug assembly 2 is inserted into the storage slot 4, and the folding stand 6 is stored in the receiving slot 11. At this time, the overall size of the converter is minimized, only the size of the socket body 1, making it convenient for travel. When needed, the corresponding plug assembly 2 is removed from the storage slot 4 and reversibly fastened into the plug mounting slot 3. The wedge-shaped slider 52 of the locking device 5 is engaged with the plug assembly 2 in the slot 23. The folding stand 6 can then be unfolded and erected as needed. When the plug assembly 2 needs to be stored or replaced, the press button 54 of the locking device 5 is pressed, pushing the wedge-shaped slider 52 back to disengage from the locking limit of the plug assembly 2. The plug assembly 2 is then reinserted into the corresponding plug mounting slot 3, and other plug assemblies 2 can be installed in the plug mounting slot 3 as needed.

[0037] After adopting the above solution, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0038] 1. It has a storage function: multiple storage slots 4 are set on the plug body 1. The unused or replaced plug components 2 can be stored in the storage slots 4 to avoid loss.

[0039] 2. Magnetic fixing function: A first magnet is placed next to the storage slot 4. The magnetic attraction property of the magnet is used to fix the plug assembly 2 stored in the storage slot 4, ensuring that the plug assembly 2 will not fall out of the storage slot 4 after being stored. Of course, the magnet can be on both sides, that is, a magnet is placed on the side wall of the storage slot 4, and a corresponding magnet is also provided on the plug body 1. When the plug body 1 is placed in the storage slot 4, it can be firmly attracted, ensuring that the plug pins will not fall out; or a magnet is placed on one side and an iron block or similar object is placed on the other side, which can also firmly attract the plug pins, ensuring that the plug pins will not fall out of the storage slot.
