Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of monitoring plug and socket technology, and in particular to a display modular combination socket. Background Technology
[0002] The real-time power socket is a safety socket equipped with real-time power monitoring technology and instant display. When powered on, all sockets are in power monitoring mode. When the socket is in use, the system can identify its usage in real time and visually display the flashing indicator lights to determine the maximum power the socket can handle and its real-time power usage.
[0003] When the socket is in use, since the socket has several sockets, if the power limit of the socket is reached by using one or two sockets, the indicator light will flash. However, if the user continues to insert a device into the third socket without noticing this, it may cause the socket to overload and short-circuit, thereby reducing the lifespan of the socket and creating certain safety hazards during use. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a modular display combination socket.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a modular combination socket, including a socket body, an indicator light on one side of the socket body, a protective device on one side of the socket body, and several limiting devices on one side of the socket body. The protective device includes a motor. A circular groove is formed on one side of the socket body, and the inner wall of the circular groove is fixedly connected to one side of the motor. An electric telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. First gears are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer surface of the output end of the electric telescopic rod. The distance between two first gears is fixed. A grooved frame is fixedly connected, and a toothed ring block is rotatably connected to several inner walls of the grooved frame. The outer surface of the first gear meshes with the inner wall of the toothed ring block. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the toothed ring block, and a rack is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod. Several round shafts are threaded through and connected to one side of the socket body. A protective cover is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one end of the round shaft. A second gear is fixedly connected to one end of the round shaft. The outer surface of the second gear meshes with one side of the rack. A first torsion spring is sleeved and connected to the outer surface of one end of the round shaft. The two ends of the first torsion spring are fixedly connected to one side of the socket body and one side of the second gear, respectively.
[0006] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is as follows: By setting up protective devices, when the device plug is inserted into the socket on the socket body, if the power limit of the socket is reached when using one or two sockets, such as when using the middle socket, and it is necessary to protect and block the sockets on both sides of the socket body, the electric telescopic rod can be activated to drive the sliding of the two first gears, and then the motor can be activated to drive the electric telescopic rod and gears to rotate, thereby driving the protective cover at the corresponding position to block the corresponding socket. This prevents the operator from continuing to insert other devices into the socket without seeing the warning indicator light, which could cause the socket to overload and short-circuit and be damaged. Therefore, it can improve the service life of the socket and reduce safety hazards during use.
[0007] Preferably, a bearing sleeve is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one end of the circular shaft, and the outer ring of the bearing sleeve is fixedly connected to one side of the socket body.
[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting the bearing sleeve, the rotational wear between the round shaft and the power detection socket can be reduced, the service life of the round shaft can be increased, and rotation can be facilitated.
[0009] Preferably, a sealing block is fixedly connected to one side of the protective cover, and the sealing block is made of rubber.
[0010] The effect achieved by the above-mentioned components is that by setting a sealing block, the gap between the protective cover and the plug side of the socket body can be sealed and blocked, preventing dust, impurities and moisture in the air from entering the inner wall of the socket hole and causing damage to the socket, thus improving the protection effect.
[0011] Preferably, a plurality of reinforcing rods are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer surface of the output end of the electric telescopic rod, and one side of the reinforcing rod is fixedly connected to one side of the first gear.
[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting up a reinforcing rod, the connection area between the first gear and the output end of the electric telescopic rod can be increased, making the connection more secure and stable.
[0013] Preferably, the limiting device includes a limiting rod, an abutment rod is inserted and connected to one of the socket holes of the socket body, a spring is sleeved and connected to one end of the abutment rod, the two ends of the spring are respectively fixedly connected to one side of the abutment rod and one side of the socket body, a plurality of protrusions are symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the socket body, round rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the limiting rod, one end of the round rod is rotatably connected to one side of the protrusion, and a second torsion spring is sleeved and connected to the outer surface of the round rod, the two ends of the second torsion spring are respectively fixedly connected to one side of the protrusion and one side of the limiting rod.
[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: By setting a limiting device, when the plug of the device is inserted into the socket of the socket body for use, the plug will squeeze the abutment rod when inserted into the socket, pushing it upward and causing the spring to be stretched. One end of the abutment rod will push the limiting rod to rotate on the protrusion around the round rod, causing the second torsion spring to deform. One end of the limiting rod will abut against the device plug, pressing and limiting it. In this way, the socket is not easy to be pulled out during use. When it is pulled out, since the abutment rod is made of a flexible material, it will deform and bend under excessive force, so that the device plug can be pulled out.
[0015] Preferably, the longitudinal section of the limiting rod is L-shaped, and the end of the abutment rod away from the spring is smaller than the other end.
[0016] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the limiting rod is L-shaped, and after one end of it is lifted up, the corner end of the other end will press against one side of the device plug, which is convenient to limit and fix it. The end of the abutting rod away from the spring is smaller in size, which makes it easier to push the device plug upward when it is abutted.
[0017] Preferably, a roller is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one end of the abutment rod, and the outer surface of the roller rolls against one side of the limiting rod.
[0018] The effect achieved by the above components is that by setting rollers, the wear between the abutment rod and the limit rod can be reduced, thereby increasing the service life of both.
[0019] Preferably, a power sensor is installed inside the socket body, and a control module is installed inside the socket body. The power sensor, motor, and indicator light are all electrically connected to the control module.
[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: when the power sensor detects that the power of the device inserted into the socket has reached the upper limit, it can upload the signal to the control module for analysis. After analysis, the control module will issue an instruction to the indicator light to flash as a warning. At the same time, it will also start the electric telescopic rod and motor to cover the protective cover of the unused socket, preventing users from inserting other devices again and causing power overload, reducing safety hazards during use, and improving the service life of the socket body.
[0021] Compared with the prior art, the advantages and positive effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0022] In this invention, by setting up a protective device, when a device plug is inserted into a socket on the socket body, if the socket's power limit is reached by using one or two sockets (e.g., the power limit is reached by using the middle socket), and it is necessary to protect and block the sockets on both sides of the socket body, the electric telescopic rod can be activated to drive the sliding of two first gears. Then, the motor can be activated to drive the electric telescopic rod and gears to rotate, causing the protective cover at the corresponding position to block the corresponding socket. This prevents the operator from continuing to insert other devices into the sockets without noticing the warning indicator light, which could cause the socket to overload and short-circuit, thus improving the socket's service life and reducing safety hazards during use.

[0032] Example 1, such as Figure 1-8As shown, a modular combination socket includes a socket body 1, an indicator light 4 on one side of the socket body 1, a protective device 2 on one side of the socket body 1, and several limiting devices 3 on one side of the socket body 1. The protective device 2 includes a motor 22. A circular groove 21 is formed on one side of the socket body 1, and the inner wall of the circular groove 21 is fixedly connected to one side of the motor 22. An electric telescopic rod 23 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 22. First gears 24 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer surface of the output end of the electric telescopic rod 23. The distance between the two first gears 24 is fixed. A groove frame 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the socket body 1. Several inner... A toothed ring block 26 is rotatably connected to each wall. The outer surface of the first gear 24 meshes with the inner wall of the toothed ring block 26. A connecting rod 27 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the toothed ring block 26. A rack 28 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 27. Several round shafts 29 are passed through and connected to one side of the socket body 1. A protective cover 210 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of one end of the round shaft 29. A second gear 211 is fixedly connected to one end of the round shaft 29. The outer surface of the second gear 211 meshes with one side of the rack 28. A first torsion spring 212 is sleeved on the outer surface of one end of the round shaft 29. The two ends of the first torsion spring 212 are fixedly connected to one side of the socket body 1 and one side of the second gear 211, respectively. When the device plug is inserted into the socket on the socket body 1, if the socket power limit is reached when one or two sockets are used, and it is necessary to protect and block the sockets on both sides of the socket body 1, the electric telescopic rod 23 can be activated to drive the two first gears 24 to slide up and down in the inner wall of several toothed ring blocks 26 to a certain position, so that half of the outer surface of the first gear 24 near the motor 22 meshes with the lowermost toothed ring block 26 of the groove frame 25. At this time, the other first gear 24 will mesh with one end of the uppermost toothed ring block 26 of the groove frame 25. When the motor is started, it will drive the electric telescopic rod 23 and the two first gears 24 to rotate, thereby driving the two meshing toothed ring blocks 26 to rotate, driving the connecting rod 27 and the rack 28 to rotate in a circle around the motor 22. The rotation of the rack 28 will drive the second gear 2 The rotation of shaft 29 and protective cover 210 blocks the corresponding sockets, preventing operators from inserting other devices into the sockets without noticing the warning from indicator light 4, which could cause overload and short circuit damage to the socket. This improves the lifespan of the socket and reduces safety hazards. The rotation of shaft 29 causes the first torsion spring 212 to deform and bend. When the first gear 24 moves away from the gear ring block 26, the first torsion spring 212 causes the gear, shaft 29, and protective cover 210 to rotate back to their original positions, releasing the protection of the sockets for easy use and subsequent protection. By sliding the two first gears 24, they can be misaligned and meshed with the inner walls of several gear ring blocks 26, allowing for individual or simultaneous closure of the three sockets.
[0033] Reference Figure 2-5 As shown, this embodiment discloses a bearing sleeve 213 fixedly connected to the outer surface of one end of the round shaft 29, and the outer ring of the bearing sleeve 213 is fixedly connected to one side of the socket body 1. By setting the bearing sleeve 213, the rotational wear between the round shaft 29 and the socket body 1 can be reduced, the service life of the round shaft 29 can be improved, and rotation can be facilitated. A sealing block 214 made of rubber is fixedly connected to one side of the protective cover 210. By setting the sealing block 214, the gap between the protective cover 210 and the plug side of the socket body 1 can be sealed and blocked, preventing dust, impurities, and moisture in the air from entering the inner wall of the socket hole, causing damage to the socket, and improving the protection effect.
[0034] Reference Figure 2-5 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses that a plurality of reinforcing rods 215 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the outer surface of the output end of the electric telescopic rod 23, and one side of the reinforcing rod 215 is fixedly connected to one side of the first gear 24. By setting the reinforcing rods 215, the connection area between the first gear 24 and the output end of the electric telescopic rod 23 can be increased, making the connection more firm and stable.
[0035] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, this embodiment discloses a limiting device 3 including a limiting rod 35. An abutment rod 31 is inserted and connected to one of the socket holes of the socket body 1. A spring 32 is sleeved and connected to one end of the abutment rod 31. The two ends of the spring 32 are fixedly connected to one side of the abutment rod 31 and one side of the socket body 1, respectively. A plurality of protrusions 33 are symmetrically fixedly connected to one side of the socket body 1. Round rods 34 are fixedly connected to both sides of the limiting rod 35. One end of the round rod 34 is rotatably connected to one side of the protrusion 33. A second torsion spring 36 is sleeved and connected to the outer surface of the round rod 34. The two ends of the second torsion spring 36 are fixedly connected to the protrusion 33 and one side of the limiting rod 35, respectively. When the device plug is inserted into the socket of the socket body 1, the plug presses against the abutment rod 31, pushing it upwards and stretching the spring 32. One end of the abutment rod 31 pushes the limiting rod 35 to rotate around the round rod 34 on the protrusion 33, causing the second torsion spring 36 to deform. One end of the limiting rod 35 then abuts against the device plug, pressing it in place. This makes it difficult to pull the socket out during use. When pulling it out, because the abutment rod 31 is made of a flexible material, it will deform and bend under excessive force, allowing the device plug to be pulled out. The longitudinal section of the limiting rod 35 is L-shaped, with the end of the abutment rod 31 furthest from the spring 32 being smaller than the other end. The limiting rod 35 is L-shaped. After one end is lifted, the corner end of the other end presses against one side of the device plug, facilitating its positioning and fixation. The end of the abutment rod 31 furthest from the spring 32 is smaller, allowing for easier upward pushing of the device plug when it is engaged. A roller 37 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of one end of the abutment rod 31, and the outer surface of the roller 37 rolls against one side of the limiting rod 35. By incorporating the roller 37, wear between the abutment rod 31 and the limiting rod 35 can be reduced, thus extending their service life.
[0036] Reference Figure 8 As shown in the figure, this embodiment discloses that a power sensor is installed inside the socket body 1, and a control module is installed inside the socket body 1. The power sensor, motor 22, and indicator light 4 are all electrically connected to the control module. When the power sensor detects that the power of the device inserted into the socket has reached the upper limit, it can upload the signal to the control module for analysis. After analysis, the control module will issue a command to the indicator light 4 to make it flash as a warning. At the same time, it will also activate the electric telescopic rod 23 and the motor 22 to cover the protective cover 210 of the unused socket, preventing the user from inserting other devices and causing power overload, reducing safety hazards during use, and improving the service life of the socket body 1.
[0037] Working principle: When the device plug is inserted into the socket on the socket body 1, if the power limit of the socket is reached when using one or two sockets (e.g., using the middle socket), and it is necessary to protect the sockets on both sides of the socket body 1, the electric telescopic rod 23 can be activated to drive the two first gears 24 to slide up and down in the inner wall of several toothed ring blocks 26 to a certain position. This causes half of the outer surface of the first gear 24 closest to the motor 22 to mesh with the lowermost toothed ring block 26 of the groove frame 25. At this time, the other first gear 24 will mesh with one end of the uppermost toothed ring block 26 of the groove frame 25. Activating the motor will then drive the electric telescopic rod 23 and the two first gears 24 to rotate, thereby rotating the two meshing toothed ring blocks 26. This causes the connecting rod 27 and the rack 28 to rotate circumferentially around the motor 22. Rotation of 28 will cause the second gear 211, the round shaft 29, and the protective cover 210 to rotate, blocking the corresponding sockets and preventing operators from inserting other devices into the sockets without observing the warning of indicator light 4, which could cause overload and short circuit damage to the socket. Therefore, it can improve the service life of the socket and reduce safety hazards during use. Rotation of the round shaft 29 will cause the first torsion spring 212 to deform and bend. When the first gear 24 moves away from the gear ring block 26, the first torsion spring 212 will drive the gear, the round shaft 29, and the protective cover 210 to rotate back to their original positions, releasing the protection of the sockets for easy use and convenient for the next protection. By sliding the two first gears 24, they can be misaligned and meshed with the inner walls of several gear ring blocks 26, allowing the three sockets to be individually closed or two of them to be closed simultaneously.
[0038] When the device plug is inserted into the socket of the socket body 1, the plug will press the abutment rod 31 when inserted into the socket, pushing it upward and causing the spring 32 to be stretched. One end of the abutment rod 31 will push the limiting rod 35 to rotate on the protrusion 33 around the round rod 34, causing the second torsion spring 36 to deform. One end of the limiting rod 35 will abut against the device plug, pressing and limiting it. In this way, the socket is not easy to be pulled out during use. When pulled out, since the abutment rod 31 is made of flexible material, it will deform and bend under excessive force, so the device plug can be pulled out.
