Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plug technology, and in particular to an easy-to-unplug plug. Background Technology

[0002] As an essential component for connecting electrical appliances to a power source, plugs are widely used in modern life and industrial production. From the early, relatively simple metal strip structure to today's plugs with multiple safety protection functions and complex mechanical structures, the types and structures of plugs have become increasingly diverse.

[0003] However, in actual use, the difficulty of unplugging plugs often troubles people. On the one hand, frequent plugging and unplugging operations cause friction to accumulate between the plug's prongs and the socket's contact elastic components, increasing the frictional force between them. When the frictional force exceeds a certain limit, pulling out the plug requires considerable force, causing inconvenience to the user. On the other hand, some plug materials are prone to deformation or aging after long-term use, making the fit between the prongs and the socket less smooth. For example, if the plastic plug shell deforms due to temperature changes or external pressure, it may also hinder the plug from being pulled out smoothly. In conclusion, how to make it easy to unplug the plug from the socket while ensuring that it can work normally still needs to be addressed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The main purpose of this invention is to provide an easy-to-unplug plug, which aims to improve the convenience of unplugging the plug from the socket.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides an easy-unpluggable plug, comprising:

[0006] Plug body;

[0007] A prying assembly includes a support member and a prying member. The support member is connected to the side wall of the plug body, and the prying member is rotatably connected to the support member. The prying member can rotate relative to the support member to push the plug out of the socket.

[0008] In one embodiment, the prying member includes a pressing part and an ejecting part, the ejecting part being rotatably connected to the support member, and the pressing part being connected to the end of the ejecting part away from the socket.

[0009] In one embodiment, a wedge-shaped notch is formed at the bottom edge of the plug body, a portion of the ejector portion is engaged with the wedge-shaped notch, and the sidewall of the ejector portion abuts against the inner wall of the wedge-shaped notch on the plug body.

[0010] In one embodiment, the pressing part has a block-shaped structure.

[0011] In one embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the ejector portion is triangular.

[0012] In one embodiment, the support member includes two support plates, which are connected at intervals to the side wall of the plug body. Each support plate is provided with one of a rotating shaft and a shaft hole. The two ends of the prying member in the width direction are respectively provided with another structure, and one of the rotating shafts is inserted into one of the shaft holes.

[0013] In one embodiment, the support member and the plug body are an integral structure.

[0014] In one embodiment, the prying assembly includes two sets, with the two prying assemblies respectively located on both sides of the plug relative to the axial direction of the connecting cable.

[0015] This utility model proposes an easy-to-unplug plug, including a plug body and a prying assembly. The prying assembly consists of a support member and a prying member. The support member is connected to the side wall of the plug body, and the prying member is rotatably connected to the support member. Rotation of the prying member allows the plug to be pushed out of the socket. The support member provides a stable fulcrum and connection base for the prying member. When the user applies force to the prying member to make it rotate, it generates a force that pushes the plug out of the socket. This changes the traditional method of simply pulling the plug body by hand to plug and unplug it, greatly facilitating the user, especially when the plug is tightly inserted or the user's hand strength is insufficient to pull it out directly. Utilizing the lever principle of the prying assembly, the plug can be pulled out of the socket more easily and effortlessly, improving the convenience and practicality of the plug and expanding its applicability in different scenarios.

[0026] As an essential component for connecting electrical appliances to a power source, plugs are widely used in modern life and industrial production. From the early, relatively simple metal strip structure to today's plugs with multiple safety protection functions and complex mechanical structures, the types and structures of plugs have become increasingly diverse.

[0027] However, in actual use, the difficulty of unplugging plugs often troubles people. On the one hand, frequent plugging and unplugging operations cause friction to accumulate between the plug's prongs and the socket's contact elastic components, increasing the frictional force between them. When the frictional force exceeds a certain limit, pulling out the plug requires considerable force, causing inconvenience to the user. On the other hand, some plug materials are prone to deformation or aging after long-term use, making the fit between the prongs and the socket less smooth. For example, if the plastic plug shell deforms due to temperature changes or external pressure, it may also hinder the plug from being pulled out smoothly. In conclusion, how to make it easy to unplug the plug from the socket while ensuring that it can work normally still needs to be addressed.

[0028] To solve the above problems, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 This utility model proposes an easy-to-unplug plug 100, including a plug body 1 and a prying assembly 2. The prying assembly 2 includes a support member 21 and a prying member 22. The support member 21 is connected to the side wall of the plug body 1, and the prying member 22 is rotatably connected to the support member 21. The prying member 22 can push the plug out of the socket 200 by rotating relative to the support member 21.

[0029] This utility model provides an easy-to-unplug plug 100, including a plug body 1 and a prying assembly 2. The prying assembly 2 consists of a support member 21 and a prying member 22. The support member 21 is connected to the side wall of the plug body 1, and the prying member 22 is rotatably connected to the support member 21. Rotation of the prying member 22 can push the plug out of the socket 200. The support member 21 provides a stable fulcrum and connection base for the prying member 22. When the user applies force to the prying member 22 to make it rotate, it can generate a force to push the plug out of the socket 200. This changes the traditional method of simply pulling the plug body 1 by hand to plug and unplug, greatly facilitating the user. Especially when the plug is inserted tightly or the user's hand strength is insufficient, making it difficult to pull it out directly, the lever principle of the prying assembly 2 can make it easier and less strenuous to pull the plug out of the socket 200, improving the convenience and practicality of the plug and expanding its applicability in different scenarios.

[0030] In an alternative embodiment, to improve the ease of unplugging the plug from the socket 200, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 The prying member includes a pressing part 221 and an ejecting part 222. The ejecting part 222 is rotatably connected to the support member 21, and the pressing part 221 is connected to the end of the ejecting part 222 away from the socket 200.

[0031] This design provides the user with a clear point of contact—the pressing part 221—to apply force and push the plug out. When the user presses the pressing part 221, the force is transmitted through the pushing part 222 and converted into a force that pushes the plug out, making the prying action more precise and efficient. Simultaneously, positioning the pressing part 221 at the end furthest from the socket 200 allows the user to apply force using leverage to lift the plug a certain distance, avoiding difficulties in operation in confined spaces or near the socket 200. This improves operational convenience and comfort, further enhancing the ease of use of the easy-to-pull plug 100. It also ensures the effective functioning of the prying component 2, guaranteeing a reasonable force transmission path so that the plug can be smoothly pushed out of the socket 200, thus improving the overall practicality and reliability of the design.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, to further improve the ease of plug removal, please refer to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 A wedge-shaped notch 11 is formed at the bottom edge of the plug body 1. Part of the structure of the ejector part 222 is engaged in the wedge-shaped notch 11, and the side wall of the ejector part 222 abuts against the inner wall of the wedge-shaped notch 11 on the plug body 1.

[0033] This structure creates a tight fit between the ejector part 222 and the plug body 1. When the prying member 22 rotates, the ejector part 222 moves accordingly within the wedge-shaped notch 11. Through the contact between the side wall of the ejector part 222 facing the wedge-shaped notch 11 and the inner wall of the wedge-shaped notch 11, the force can be transmitted to the plug body 1 more precisely, thereby more effectively ejecting the plug from the socket 200. Meanwhile, the shape of the wedge-shaped notch 11 can guide and limit the ejector part 222, ensuring that the ejector part 222 moves along a predetermined trajectory during rotation, avoiding deviation or jamming, making the prying process smoother and more stable, improving the reliability and stability of the prying component 2, further optimizing the plug-in and plug-out performance of the easy-to-unplug plug 100, ensuring that users can complete the plug-out operation smoothly and efficiently, and this tight structural fit also helps to improve the overall structural compactness of the plug, helps to reduce the overall width of the easy-to-unplug plug 100, and will not add too much volume and space occupation, so that the plug can still have good portability and adaptability while maintaining the easy-to-unplug function.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, to facilitate the user in applying force to the pry bar 22, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3The pressing part 221 has a block-shaped structure. In actual design, the pressing part 221 can be a block-shaped structure with a large force-bearing area or a rod-shaped structure with a small space occupation. In this embodiment, a block-shaped pressing part 221 is used to transmit the pressing force. Compared with pressing parts 221 of other shapes, the block-shaped pressing part 221 has a larger force-bearing area. When pressing, the user can place their fingers or thumbs more naturally on it, making the force application process more uniform and comfortable. This reduces the adverse experience of excessive local force on the fingers, discomfort, or even pain that may be caused by the small area of ​​the pressing part 221. Moreover, the block structure is relatively stable and can stably transmit the force to the ejector part 222 when subjected to pressing force. This avoids problems such as poor force transmission or structural deformation caused by unreasonable shape of the pressing part 221, thereby improving the stability of the prying operation and ensuring that each press can be effectively converted into the force to eject the plug. This improves the reliability and convenience of the easy-to-pull plug 100 in actual use.

[0035] In an alternative embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The ejector portion 222 has a triangular cross-sectional shape. This triangular shape gives the ejector portion 222 unique advantages in contact with the socket 200 and during the prying process. On the one hand, the relatively sharp apex of the triangle can better cooperate with the wedge-shaped notch 11 at the bottom of the plug body 1, thereby generating a greater ejection force. This allows the plug to be ejected from the socket 200 more easily, especially suitable for situations where the plug is tightly inserted, improving the applicability and effectiveness of the prying component 2. On the other hand, the triangular structure itself has high strength and stability. When subjected to prying force, it can withstand a large force without easily deforming or being damaged, ensuring the service life and reliability of the prying component 2. At the same time, the cooperation between the various faces of the ejector portion 222 can better and more evenly transmit the force to the plug body 1 during rotation, making the prying action smoother and more stable. This reduces problems such as difficulty in plug removal caused by shaking or uneven force, optimizing the overall plugging and unplugging performance of the easy-to-plug plug 100, making it more practical and efficient.

[0036] In an optional embodiment, to ensure the stability of the rotation of the pry bar 22, please refer to... Figure 1 The support member 21 includes two support plates, which are connected to the side wall of the plug body 1 at intervals. Each support plate is provided with one of a rotating shaft and a shaft hole. The two ends of the pry member 22 in the width direction are respectively provided with another structure, and a rotating shaft is inserted into a shaft hole.

[0037] This structure allows the support member 21 to be firmly fixed to the plug body 1. The two support plates, spaced apart, provide stable support and a reliable fulcrum for the pry member 22, while allowing sufficient space for the rotation of the pry member 22, ensuring that the pry member 22 can rotate flexibly. The fit between the rotating shaft and the shaft hole ensures a tight connection and smooth rotation, preventing loosening or detachment that could affect the normal use of the pry assembly 2. Specifically, the rotating shaft can be located on the pry member 22 or on the support member 21, depending on actual needs. In this embodiment, the rotating shaft is located on the side wall of the ejector portion 222 on the pry member 22 to enable the pry member 22 to rotate relative to the support. This rotating structure facilitates manufacturing, installation, and maintenance, reduces production costs and process difficulty, improves production efficiency, and also makes the overall structure of the pry assembly 2 more reasonable and stable, better able to withstand the forces during the prying process, ensuring the pull-out function of the pry assembly 2.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, the support member 21 and the plug body 1 are an integral structure. This integral structure enhances the connection strength and stability between the plug body 1 and the support member 21, preventing loosening or detachment that may occur due to long-term use or external forces. This ensures that the prying assembly 2 maintains a stable supporting function throughout the entire plug's lifespan. Simultaneously, the integral structure simplifies the plug assembly process, reduces the number of parts and assembly steps, lowers production costs and the risk of problems caused by assembly errors, and improves production efficiency and product quality consistency. Furthermore, this structure allows for a simpler and more aesthetically pleasing overall appearance of the plug, without compromising its design and overall aesthetics due to additional connecting components.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, for ease of removing the easy-to-unplug plug 100, please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 The prying assembly 2 includes two sets, with the two prying assemblies 2 respectively located on both sides of the plug relative to the axial direction of the connecting cable.

[0040] In practical design, the pry-out assembly 2 can be set in one or two sets. When only one set is set, the pry-out assembly 2 can be set on the side of the connecting cable opposite the plug. In this way, when the user needs to unplug the plug, he / she can grasp the left and right sides of the plug body 1 with his / her fingers or palm, and extend his / her index finger or other fingers forward to contact the pressing part 221 and rotate it inward, so that the prying part 22 lifts the plug body 1 for easy unplugging, making it easier for the user to unplug the plug. When the pry-out assembly 2 is set in two sets, the pry-out assembly 2 is set on both sides of the plug relative to the axial direction of the connecting cable, that is, on the left and right sides of the plug body 1. When the user needs to unplug the plug, he / she only needs to press the pry-out assembly 2 on both sides at the same time with his / her fingers, thereby generating a stronger pushing force, which can push the plug out of the socket 200 more quickly and effectively. This is especially suitable for special scenarios where the plug is inserted very tightly and is difficult to unplug, further enhancing the practicality of the easy-to-unplug plug 100. The pry-out components 2 on both sides make the overall plug structure more symmetrical and balanced, which helps improve the stability and mechanical performance of the easy-to-unplug plug 100. When the easy-to-unplug plug 100 is inserted into the socket 200 or when it is pryed out, it reduces problems such as shaking and uneven force that may occur due to structural asymmetry, ensuring the normal use of the easy-to-unplug plug 100 and the stable performance of the pry-out function, thus improving the overall quality of the product and the user experience. In addition, by using the pry-out components 2 to pull out the plug, the user's fingers are further away from the prongs and socket holes on the socket 200 when applying force, which also effectively avoids the danger of accidentally touching the prongs or socket holes during insertion and removal, improving the safety of plug insertion and removal.

[0041] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
