[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 3 A foldable plug charger includes a charger housing 3 and a mounting base 1. The mounting base 1 is mounted on the surface of the charger housing 3. A mounting assembly is provided between the charger housing 3 and the mounting base 1. Two vertical slots 9 are symmetrically opened on one side of the mounting base 1. Two plugs 8 are provided inside the two vertical slots 9. The other side of the mounting base 1 is provided with a mounting opening 11. A rotating shaft 13 is rotatably connected inside the mounting opening 11. The two ends of the rotating shaft 13 extend through the mounting opening 11 into the vertical slots 9 and are rotatably connected to the inner sidewall of the vertical slots 9. The plugs 8 are sleeved and fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 13. The plugs 8 can be unfolded or folded by rotating the rotating shaft 13. Two first positioning holes 18 are opened on the surface of the rotating shaft 13.

[0024] The rotating shaft 13 is provided with a second positioning port 19 on the side near the first positioning port 18. The mounting base 1 is provided with two strip-shaped ports 12 on the side near the mounting port 11. The two strip-shaped ports 12 are provided with fixing components inside. The circuit board is fixedly installed inside the charger housing 3. A USB interface 4 is fixedly installed on one side of the charger housing 3. A Type-C interface 5 is fixedly installed on one side of the charger housing 3 near the USB interface 4. Wires 10 are soldered to one end of each of the two pins 8. One end of each wire 10 is electrically connected to the circuit board. The USB interface 4 and the Type-C interface 5 are electrically connected to the circuit board to realize the circuit connection. A sealing ring is provided at the connection between the mounting base 1 and the charger housing 3 to ensure the sealing of the connection between the mounting base 1 and the charger housing 3.

[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 As shown, the fixing assembly includes a vertical rod 21, which is disposed inside the strip-shaped opening 12. A mounting plate 16 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the strip-shaped opening 12, and a plug rod 17 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting plate 16. One end of the plug rod 17 extends through the strip-shaped opening 12 to the inside of the mounting opening 11. The plug rod 17 is installed in conjunction with the first positioning opening 18 and the second positioning opening 19. A spring 20 is sleeved on the outside of the vertical rod 21. The force of the spring 20 causes the plug rod 17 to be installed inside the first positioning opening 18 or the second positioning opening 19, which facilitates fixing the plug pin 8 when it is folded or opened. The two ends of the spring 20 are fixedly connected to one side of the mounting plate 16 and the inner side wall of the strip-shaped opening 12, respectively. A push groove 2 is provided on one side of the handle 7 to facilitate pushing the handle 7. One end of the vertical rod 21 extends through the outside of the mounting base 1 and is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 6. A handle 7 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting plate 6, which facilitates driving the connecting plate 6.

[0026] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting assembly includes multiple mounting holes 14, which are located on one side of the mounting base 1.

The mounting base 1 and the charger housing 3 are easily installed and disassembled by the screws 15.

[0027] In use, this utility model first pushes the handle 7 through the push groove 2, causing the connecting plate 6 to move. The moving connecting plate 6 drives the vertical rod 21 to move, which in turn drives the mounting plate 16 to move and compress the spring 20. This disengages the insertion rod 17 on one side of the mounting plate 16 from the first positioning port 18, allowing the pin 8 to rotate. Simultaneously, the handle 7 is released to install the insertion rod 17 into the second positioning port 19, facilitating the fixation of the pin 8 and making it easy to plug into a power source. Electrical energy is transmitted to the circuit board via the wire 10 for voltage transformation and transmission. A data cable is installed through the USB interface 4 and the Type-C interface 5 for use. When the plug 8 is folded and stored, the connecting plate 6 is moved by the handle 7. The moving connecting plate 6 drives the vertical rod 21 to move. The moving vertical rod 21 drives the mounting plate 16 to move and compress the spring 20. This allows the plug rod 17 on one side of the mounting plate 16 to detach from the second positioning port 19. The plug 8 is then rotated into the vertical groove 9. The handle 7 is released to install the plug rod 17 into the first positioning port 18, which helps to fix the plug 8 and achieves the effect of storage. This also helps to protect the plug 8 and effectively reduces the safety hazards caused by damage to the plug 8 and collision deformation. When storing the plug charger, it prevents the plug 8 from protruding and cutting the packaging bag, making it more practical.
