Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power strip technology, and in particular to a power strip with an inclined plug-in connection. Background Technology
[0002] Traditional power strips typically use a vertical plug-in structure, meaning the socket is perpendicular to the surface of the power strip. This design is not ergonomic, making plugging and unplugging less effortful and convenient. Furthermore, in practical use, the vertical plug-in method can make it difficult to fully insert the plug in confined spaces (such as wall corners or furniture gaps), limiting the applicable scenarios for power strips.
[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a power strip design that is both ergonomic, convenient, labor-saving, simple, and reliable. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a power strip with an inclined plug-in design, which is convenient, labor-saving, simple and reliable.
[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a power strip with inclined plug-in, comprising a power strip body, the power strip body comprising a housing and a plug panel, the plug panel being connected to the housing, the plug panel being provided with a plurality of sockets, the plug-in direction of the sockets being set at an angle to the power strip body.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the insertion and removal are more ergonomic, making it convenient, labor-saving, simple, and reliable.
[0007] A further feature of this invention is that the housing is inclined to have a slot for accommodating the plug panel, and the housing and the plug panel are connected at an angle so that the plugging direction of the socket is the same as the opening direction of the slot.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, a slot at an angle to the horizontal plane is opened on the housing, and the outer contour of the socket panel fits the slot, thereby achieving an inclined setting between the socket insertion direction and the socket panel body.
[0009] A further feature of this invention is that it includes a connector, the power strip body is movably connected to the connector, the side wall of the connector has a through hole to form a channel for accommodating the power strip body, and the power strip body and the connector are rotated together to achieve circumferential rotation of the power strip body relative to the connector.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the tilt direction of the power strip body can be changed at any time according to the needs of the usage environment, thereby changing the plugging direction of the socket, making it more user-friendly and convenient to use, and with a simple structure.
[0011] A further feature of this invention is that: the outer wall of the power strip body has a plurality of slots evenly distributed circumferentially; a spring is mounted on the connector; a ball is fixedly connected to the end of the spring; the ball and the slot form an elastic abutment; when the power strip body rotates around its axis, the ball and the corresponding slot are circumferentially positioned.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the power strip body rotates around its axis, the ball bearing rolls on the slot and makes a "tick" sound. Users can judge the positioning status of the ball bearing and the slot based on the sound, making the operation simple.
[0013] A further feature of this invention is that a screw cap is inserted into the through hole, the screw cap is fixedly connected to the power strip body, and the screw cap portion is exposed on the outer surface of the power strip body.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the power strip body can be rotated by rotating the cap exposed on the outer surface of the power strip body, which makes the operation simple.
[0015] A further feature of this invention is that one end of the power strip body has an arc-shaped protrusion, and the screw cap has a first groove corresponding to the protrusion. The protrusion is inserted into the first groove to fix the screw cap to the power strip body.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the power strip body is fixedly connected to the screw cap by its own shape, without the need for additional fixing structures. The structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0017] A further feature of this invention is that the side wall of the power strip body is provided with a limiting rib, and the limiting rib and the connecting seat together form a displacement path that constrains the power strip body to rotate along its axial direction.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, this design avoids human error causing the power strip to rotate excessively, making it difficult to plug in, and limits the effective range of plugging in.
[0019] A further feature of this invention is that: the bottom of the connector is symmetrically provided with arc-shaped protrusions, the arc-shaped protrusions are configured to protrude radially along the axis of the connector, and the arc-shaped protrusions and the side wall of the connector together form a groove for accommodating the plug-in wires of the power strip.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the power strip's wires can be routed from one side of the slot to the other, making it easier to organize the power strip's wires.
[0021] A further feature of this invention is that a plurality of buckles are provided on the side wall of the connector, and the buckles, the arc-shaped protrusion, and the side wall of the connector together form a placement groove that restricts the radial displacement of the plug-in wires of the power strip.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, after the power strip's cord enters the placement slot on one side, it is secured by a clip, and then it wraps around to the placement slot on the other side, where it is secured by another clip, so that the cord is firmly coiled on the power strip, making it easy to organize.
[0023] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0024] The power strip is connected to the housing and has several sockets. The sockets are angled to the power strip body, which makes plugging and unplugging more ergonomic, thus achieving a convenient, labor-saving, simple and reliable effect. Attached Figure Description

[0033] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0034] Example 1:
[0035] A type of angled power strip, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the power strip includes a power strip body 1, which comprises a housing 11 and a power strip panel 12. The power strip panel 12 is connected to the housing 11 and has a plurality of sockets 13. The plug-in direction of the sockets 13 is angled relative to the power strip body 1. The power strip body 1 is parallel to the horizontal plane, and the plug-in angle of the sockets 13 is between 0 and 90 degrees. This means that the plug-in angle of the sockets 13 is tilted relative to the horizontal plane, making plugging and unplugging more ergonomic, convenient, effortless, simple, and reliable.
[0036] Preferably, the housing 11 has an inclined slot 14 for accommodating the power strip 12, and the housing 11 and the power strip 12 are connected at an angle, so that the insertion direction of the socket 13 is the same as the opening direction of the slot 14. Because the housing 11 has a slot 14 at an angle to the horizontal plane, the outer contours of the power strip 12 and the slot 14 fit together, thereby achieving an inclined insertion direction of the socket 13 relative to the power strip body 1.
[0037] Example 2:
[0038] A type of angled power strip, such as Figure 3-7 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and specific embodiment one is that it also includes a connecting base 2. The power strip body 1 is movably connected within the connecting base 2. The side wall of the connecting base 2 has a through hole 21, forming a channel to accommodate the power strip body 1. The power strip body 1 and the connecting base 2 are rotated together, allowing the power strip body 1 to rotate circumferentially relative to the connecting base 2. The power strip body 1 is movably connected within the power strip body 2, and the area between the two through holes 21 forms an active area for the power strip body 1. Within this active area, the power strip body 1 rotates circumferentially along the central axis of the two through holes 21. The tilt direction of the power strip body 1 can be changed at any time according to the needs of the usage environment, thereby changing the plugging direction of the socket 13. This makes it more user-friendly, convenient, and has a simple structure.
[0039] Preferably, the outer wall of the power strip body 1 has a plurality of slots 15 evenly distributed circumferentially. A spring 22 is mounted on the connecting seat 2, and a stop bead 23 is fixedly connected to the end of the spring 22. The stop bead 23 forms an elastic abutment with the slot 15. When the power strip body 1 rotates around its axis, the stop bead 23 is circumferentially positioned with the corresponding slot 15. A second groove 242 is provided on the connecting seat 2. The opening direction of the second groove 242 corresponds to the stop bead 23. The spring 22 is mounted in the second groove 242, and the end of the spring 22 away from the second groove 242 is connected to the stop bead 23. The stop bead 23 abuts against the slot 15. When the power strip body 1 rotates around its axis, the stop bead 23 rolls on the slot 15, making a "click" sound. The user can judge the positioning status of the stop bead 23 and the slot 15 by the sound, making the operation simple.
[0040] Preferably, a cap 24 is inserted into the through hole 21, and the cap 24 is fixedly connected to the power strip body 1. The cap 24 is partially exposed on the outer surface of the power strip body 1. The cap 24 is inserted into the through hole 21 from the outside to the inside of the through hole 21. By rotating the portion of the cap 24 exposed on the outer surface of the power strip body 1, the power strip body 1 is rotated, making the operation simple.
[0041] Preferably, one end of the power strip body 1 has an arc-shaped protrusion 16, and the screw cap 24 has a first groove 241 corresponding to the protrusion 16. The protrusion 16 is engaged with the first groove 241 to fix the screw cap 24 to the power strip body 1. The contour of the first groove 241 matches the contour of the protrusion 16, and the power strip body 1 is fixedly connected to the screw cap 24 by its own shape, without the need for additional fixing structures. The structure is simple and easy to implement.
[0042] Preferably, the side wall of the power strip body 1 is provided with a limiting rib 17. The limiting rib 17 and the connecting seat 2 together form a displacement path that constrains the power strip body 1 to rotate along its axial direction. A third groove 243 is provided on the connecting seat 2. The limiting rib 17 is placed in the third groove 243 and defines the displacement path that constrains the power strip body 1 to rotate along its axial direction. When the limiting rib 17 abuts against the third groove 243, it restricts the rotation direction of the power strip body 1 on one side. This design avoids excessive rotation of the power strip body 1 due to human error, making it difficult to plug in, and limits the effective range of plugging in. In addition, since the connecting seat 2 has a third groove 243, the third groove 243 exposes the power strip body 1 to the outside, resulting in an increased heat dissipation area of the power strip body 1, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.
[0043] Preferably, the bottom of the connector 2 is symmetrically provided with arc-shaped protrusions 25, which are configured to protrude radially along the axis of the connector 2. The arc-shaped protrusions 25 and the side wall of the connector 2 together form a placement groove 26 for accommodating the power strip's plug wires. The arc-shaped protrusions 25 are integrally formed with the connector 2, and the size of the placement groove 26 is at least configured to accommodate the power strip's plug wires. The power strip's plug wires are routed along one side of the placement groove 26 to the other side of the placement groove 26, facilitating the organization of the power strip's plug wires.
[0044] Preferably, the side wall of the connector 2 is provided with a plurality of clips 27. The clips 27, the arc-shaped protrusions 25, and the side wall of the connector 2 together form a placement groove 26 that restricts the radial displacement of the plug wires on the power strip. The clips 27 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the connector 2, with the opening of the clips 27 facing the placement groove 26. After the plug wires enter the placement groove 26 on one side, the clips 27 engage and fix them. Then, the wires are wound around to the placement groove 26 on the other side and engaged and fixed again by the clips 27, so that the wires are firmly coiled on the power strip for easy organization.
[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. Therefore, all equivalent changes or modifications made to the structure, features and principles described in the claims of the present utility model patent application are included in the scope of the present utility model patent application.
