[0030] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 The power strip module structure provided in this embodiment includes at least two socket modules, namely a first socket module 100 and a second socket module 200. In this solution, the power strip containing the power strip module structure can be applied to e-sports scenarios, home office scenarios, and even industrial scenarios. Especially in e-sports scenarios, it can provide power to the electrical devices used in e-sports.
[0031] The first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are respectively provided with a first receiving groove 110 and a second receiving groove 210 for accommodating the wire. A third receiving groove for accommodating the wire is formed between the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200. The first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are arranged adjacent to each other and are detachably connected.
[0032] In this embodiment, a first receiving groove 110 is provided on the first socket module 100, and a second receiving groove 210 is provided on the second socket module 200. The first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are arranged adjacent to each other and can be detachably connected together. A third receiving groove is formed between the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200. The first receiving groove 110, the second receiving groove 210 and the third receiving groove can respectively hold the wires 300 used for connecting with the live wire, the neutral wire and the ground wire.
[0033] When an appliance is plugged into the power strip, the plug of the appliance contacts the wire 300 to form a circuit, thereby enabling power supply to the appliance. In this embodiment, the partitioned structure formed by the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 can effectively utilize the internal space of the power strip, avoid the crossing and tangling between the wires 300, and improve the space utilization rate within the power strip.
[0034] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the power strip module structure adopts a modular socket module design, which optimizes the volume of the entire power strip module structure. The overall structure of the power strip module is more compact, saving material costs while reducing the overall volume of the power strip module structure, so that the power strip can be reduced in size and made more flexible in use.
[0035] As an feasible approach, the live wire, neutral wire, and ground wire can also be directly connected to the first receiving slot 110, the second receiving slot 210, and the third receiving slot. When the plug of the appliance is plugged into the power strip, the plug can be directly connected to the live wire, neutral wire, and ground wire in the first receiving slot 110, the second receiving slot 210, and the third receiving slot, thereby enabling power supply to the appliance.
[0036] In this embodiment, the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are stacked. The first receiving groove 110 is located at the end of the first socket module 100 away from the second socket module 200. The second receiving groove 210 is located at the end of the second socket module 200 away from the first socket module 100.
[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment, the stacked first socket module 100 and second socket module 200 can effectively utilize vertical space, making the overall structure of the power strip module more compact. Furthermore, the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210 are located at opposite ends of the stacked overall structure, ensuring a greater distance between the neutral and live wires and preventing contact between them, thereby further enhancing the safety of the power strip module structure.
[0038] In this embodiment, the first receiving groove 110, the second receiving groove 210, and the third receiving groove are each connected to multiple wiring ports. The first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 form an integral structure. The multiple wiring ports are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the integral structure.
[0039] When using the power strip module structure provided in this embodiment, the plug of the appliance can be inserted into the wiring port so that the plug of the appliance can be connected to the live wire, ground wire and neutral wire respectively, thereby realizing the power supply to the appliance.
[0040] Multiple wiring ports are arranged along the direction surrounding the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200. Multiple sockets for plugging into electrical appliances are formed on each side of the integral structure composed of the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200. Multiple electrical devices can be flexibly connected according to actual needs, thereby realizing the simultaneous power supply of multiple electrical devices.
[0041] In this embodiment, the power strip module structure further includes a wire 300. The wire 300 is included in the wire body. The wire 300 has multiple connectors 310. The wire 300 is provided in multiple locations, respectively, in the first receiving groove 110, the second receiving groove 210, and the third receiving groove. The multiple connectors 310 are respectively provided in multiple wiring ports.
[0042] Specifically, the wire 300 in this embodiment belongs to one type of wire mentioned above, and is a separately provided independent wire. With this structure, multiple connection ports can be connected through a single wire 300. Specifically, in this embodiment, a wire 300 is respectively provided in the first receiving groove 110, the second receiving groove 210, and the third receiving groove.
[0043] In this configuration, one end of the wire 300 in the first receiving slot 110 is connected to the live wire, and multiple connectors 310 of the wire 300 are respectively located in multiple wiring ports connected to the first receiving slot 110 to form multiple live wire ports. Correspondingly, one end of the wire 300 in the second receiving slot 210 is connected to the neutral wire and forms multiple neutral wire ports with multiple wiring ports connected to the second receiving slot 210. One end of the wire 300 in the third receiving slot is connected to the ground wire and forms multiple ground wire ports with multiple wiring ports connected to the third receiving slot.
[0044] When an electrical device is plugged in, the multiple contacts of the plug are inserted into the live wire, neutral wire, and ground wire respectively, thereby supplying power to the electrical device. In this embodiment, multiple devices can be connected using a single conductor 300, eliminating the need for multiple wires to correspond one-to-one with different terminals, saving materials. Furthermore, the integrated conductor 300 structure occupies less space, further reducing the overall size of the structure.
[0045] In this embodiment, the power strip module structure also includes a cover plate 400. There are at least two cover plates 400, which are respectively disposed at the opening of the first receiving groove 110 and the opening of the second receiving groove 210 to close the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210.
[0046] In this embodiment, after the first insert module 100 and the second insert module 200 are connected to form an integral structure, the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210 are located at both ends of the integral structure, and two cover plates 400 are respectively covered to both ends of the integral structure to close the openings of the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210.
[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the cover plate 400 is connected to the integral structure formed by the first insert module 100 and the second insert module 200, it can press the wires 300 in the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210 to prevent the wires 300 in the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210 from moving or even falling off when shaken or vibrated.
[0048] Furthermore, after the cover plate 400 closes the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210, it can form a protective structure, thereby preventing dust and moisture from entering the interior of the power strip. It is especially suitable for humid environments such as kitchens and bathrooms, improving the adaptability and durability of the power strip module structure.
[0049] In this embodiment, the cover plate 400 is provided with a cable outlet hole. The cable outlet hole is used for the connector 310 to pass through.
[0050] The connector 310 of the wire 300 located in the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210 can be passed through the outlet hole so that the wire 300 in the first receiving groove 110 and the second receiving groove 210 can be connected to the live wire and the neutral wire.
[0051] In this embodiment, the connector 310 of the wire 300 in the third receiving groove extends out from the side of the integral structure formed by the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 to achieve connection with the ground wire.
[0052] In this embodiment, the first receiving groove 110, the second receiving groove 210, and the third receiving groove are all provided with clearance holes. The clearance holes are used to accommodate the wire 300.
[0053] Specifically, the walls of the first receiving groove 110, the second receiving groove 210, and the third receiving groove are all provided with multiple clearance holes so that after the multiple connectors 310 of the wire 300 are inserted into the wiring port, the wire body of the wire 300 can be located in the clearance holes, thus preventing the wire body of the wire 300 from being pinched after the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are connected.
[0054] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the cover plate 400 abuts against the opening of the clearance hole.
[0055] With this structure, the cover plate 400 can seal the clearance hole, preventing the wire of the conductor 300 from coming out of the clearance hole and falling off due to vibration.
[0056] In this embodiment, both the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are rectangular structures. The first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are snapped together.
[0057] Both the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are rectangular structures. This design makes the two modules more regular in shape, facilitating stacking and arrangement, and also helps to improve the stability of the overall structure formed.
[0058] Furthermore, the first socket module 100 and the second socket module 200 are connected by a locking block and a snap-fit mechanism, making installation and disassembly convenient.
[0059] The present invention also aims to provide a power strip, including a housing and a provided power strip module structure. An installation space is formed within the housing. The power strip module structure is disposed within the installation space.
[0060] The power strip module is installed in the installation space inside the housing. The power strip module structure adopts a modular socket module design, which optimizes the volume of the entire power strip module structure. The overall structure of the power strip module is more compact, saving material costs while reducing the space occupied inside the housing, so that the power strip can be reduced in size and made more flexible in use.
[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, the inner wall of the outer casing is provided with a mounting groove adapted to the structure of the power strip module, forming an installation space within the mounting groove. The power strip module is placed within the mounting groove and fits against the inner wall of the mounting groove, thereby accommodating and fixing the power strip module structure, ensuring a tight fit between the power strip module structure and the outer casing, and preventing loosening.
[0062] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features. These modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
