Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a power strip, specifically a portable vertical power strip. Background Technology

[0002] As people's demands for electrical safety and convenience continue to increase, power strips (also known as power strips or extension cords) have become an essential electrical accessory in homes and offices and are now widely used. Traditional power strips are mostly horizontally laid out, with multiple sockets arranged along a plane, which takes up a lot of space and makes it easy for power plugs to be stacked, causing clutter and affecting heat dissipation and safety.

[0003] To address the issue of large space occupation, some existing technologies have proposed vertical power strip structures, distributing the socket holes on multiple sides of the power strip housing, utilizing vertical space and improving the efficiency of socket usage. However, existing vertical power strips still have the following shortcomings:

[0004] First, most vertical power strips are large and inconvenient to fix. If you need to carry them out, they are bulky and difficult to carry or store. In particular, the power cord is usually exposed, which not only affects the appearance but also makes the cord easy to get tangled and take up extra space.

[0005] Secondly, although some existing vertical power strips are equipped with handles or lifting parts for easy movement or carrying, the handles are often fixed and exposed structures that protrude from the main body of the power strip when not in use. This not only affects the overall aesthetics but also increases the product's size to some extent, making it difficult to store or place in small spaces.

[0006] In addition, the issue of cable management is also quite prominent. Existing cable winding designs mostly use external slots or separate cable winders, which not only result in complex structures and increased costs, but also appear cluttered, making it difficult to achieve an overall aesthetically pleasing and compact design for the power strip. Utility Model Content

[0007] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides a portable vertical power strip. By incorporating a retractable handle at the top of the power strip, it can be stored in a pull ring groove when not in use, maintaining a flat and aesthetically pleasing top. Additionally, a coiled cable cavity is designed at the bottom of the base, allowing the power strip cable to be coiled and concealed. The overall structure is compact, easy to carry, space-saving, and enhances the product's aesthetics and practicality.

[0008] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a portable vertical power strip, comprising:

[0009] The housing has multiple socket surfaces, each socket surface having a socket hole of a different specification;

[0010] A base is disposed at the bottom of the housing to support the housing, and a power strip extends from the bottom of the base to the outside;

[0011] The bottom surface of the base forms a winding cavity, and the connector cable is coiled inside the winding cavity when not in use;

[0012] The top of the housing is provided with a lifting mechanism.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, a support panel is provided at the bottom of the base, and a winding post is provided between the upper end of the support panel and the housing, and the connector cable is coiled in the winding cavity.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the winding cavity is formed between the support panel, the winding post, and the housing.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the lifting mechanism includes a pull-out handle, which is rotatably mounted at the top position of the housing.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution, the top of the housing is provided with two pull ring grooves, and two pull-out handles are provided, which are rotatably installed in the pull ring grooves respectively. When not in use, the pull-out handles are laid flat in the pull ring grooves.

[0017] As a preferred technical solution, the outer diameter of the bottom surface of the base is larger than the outer diameter of the top surface, and the entire base is shaped like a trumpet.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution, a wireless charging component is provided at the bottom of the housing.

[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0020] 1. By setting a pull-out handle on the top of the housing, which can rotate and be hidden in the pull ring groove on the top of the housing, the power strip can be easily pulled up when it needs to be carried or moved, improving portability; when not in use, the pull-out handle can be laid flat for storage, keeping the top of the housing flat, with a simple and beautiful overall appearance, avoiding protruding parts from affecting the placement or storage of the power strip, and reducing space.

[0021] Second, by setting a winding cavity on the bottom of the base, the power strip cord can be neatly coiled and stored inside the base when not in use, effectively hiding the cord. This not only saves space and avoids the cord being exposed and messy, but also improves the product's neatness and aesthetics.

[0022] Third, the power strip housing adopts a vertical, multi-faceted socket arrangement structure, which distributes sockets of different specifications on multiple socket surfaces, improving the flexibility of the power strip and meeting the access needs of various plugs, while saving desktop or floor space.

[0023] Fourth, the outer diameter of the base is larger than the outer diameter of the top, and the overall design is flared, which makes the power strip more stable when placed and less likely to tip over, thus improving the safety of use. Attached Figure Description

[0029] All features disclosed in this specification, or all steps in all disclosed methods or processes, may be combined in any way, except for mutually exclusive features and / or steps.

[0030] Any feature disclosed in this specification (including any appended claims, abstract, and drawings) may be replaced by other equivalent or similar features for a similar purpose, unless specifically stated otherwise. That is, unless specifically stated otherwise, each feature is merely one example of a series of equivalent or similar features.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model discloses a portable vertical power strip, comprising a housing 1, a base 4, a power strip cord, and a lifting mechanism. The housing 1 has multiple socket surfaces, each with socket holes 3 of different specifications to meet the insertion requirements of different types of plugs. For example, it can have two-hole socket holes 3, three-hole socket holes 3, or multi-functional socket holes 3, facilitating compatibility with power plugs of various electrical appliances and improving the applicability of the power strip. The housing 1 has a vertical structure, with multiple socket surfaces distributed circumferentially around the housing 1, allowing the power strip to utilize three-dimensional space and avoiding congestion and interference caused by plugs concentrated on the same plane. It also allows users to use the socket from different directions, enhancing its flexibility and convenience.

[0032] The base 4 is located at the bottom of the housing 1 to support the entire housing 1, allowing the power strip to stand stably upright. The power strip cord extends from the bottom of the base 4 to the outside for connection with an external power source to supply power to the socket. To ensure the power strip cord can be neatly stored when not in use, avoiding exposure that affects aesthetics or causes tangling, this invention features a winding cavity 7 on the bottom surface of the base 4. When not in use, the power strip cord can be coiled inside the winding cavity 7, thus hiding excess cord inside the base 4, saving space and improving the overall aesthetics of the product.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, a support panel 5 is provided at the bottom of the base 4, which serves as a load-bearing element. A winding post 6 is provided between its upper end and the housing 1. The winding post 6 is vertically positioned and serves as the axis for winding, so that the connector cable can be evenly coiled and stored in the winding cavity 7, avoiding cable accumulation or tangling. Through the combined action of the support panel 5, the winding post 6, and the housing 1, a closed or semi-closed winding cavity 7 structure is formed. The space of the winding cavity 7 can be designed as circular, elliptical, or polygonal as needed to accommodate connector cables of different lengths or thicknesses.

[0034] A lifting mechanism is provided on the top of the housing 1. The lifting mechanism is used to facilitate users to quickly lift or carry the power strip when they need to move or carry it. As a preferred embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a pull-out handle 2, which is installed on the top of the housing 1 by rotation. The pull-out handle 2 can stand upright when in use, forming a handle-like structure, which is convenient for users to grip and apply force. When not in use, the pull-out handle 2 can be folded down for storage by rotation or flipping, thereby maintaining the flat appearance of the top of the housing 1 and avoiding the protruding structure from affecting the overall aesthetics of the power strip or occupying extra space when storing it.

[0035] Furthermore, to enhance the concealment and aesthetics of the pull-out handles 2, two pull ring slots are provided on the top of the housing 1. Two pull-out handles 2 are provided and are rotatably installed in the pull ring slots respectively. When not in use, the two pull-out handles 2 can lie flat in their respective pull ring slots, flush with the top surface of the housing 1, resulting in a simple and flat appearance. This avoids the space waste or visual abruptness caused by the traditional fixed handles being exposed all year round. When it is necessary to lift the power strip, the user only needs to flip up the two pull-out handles 2 from the pull ring slots to easily grasp the power strip for movement or carrying, thus improving the portability of the product.

[0036] In addition, the outer diameter of the bottom surface of the base 4 is slightly larger than that of the top surface. The entire base 4 is designed in a flared shape. This shape not only makes the overall structure of the vertical power strip more stable and less likely to tip over when placed on a desktop, the ground or other platforms, but also makes it more aesthetically pleasing. The larger size of the bottom also provides ample space for the winding cavity 7, allowing the winding cavity 7 to accommodate longer or thicker power strip cables to meet different usage needs.

[0037] The bottom of the housing is provided with a wireless charging component 8, and mobile phones or electronic devices that can be wirelessly charged can be wirelessly charged from the top. The wireless charging component is a mature existing technology, and will not be described in detail here.

[0038] This utility model features a portable vertical power strip with a compact overall structure and a reasonable layout. It achieves space-saving by distributing sockets vertically on multiple sides, while enhancing the product's portability and aesthetics through a hidden pull-out handle 2 at the top. At the same time, the bottom is equipped with a cable winding cavity 7 to effectively hide the power strip cable, avoiding the messy appearance caused by exposed cables. It has significant advantages such as beautiful appearance, small size, and easy storage and carrying, making it suitable for various occasions such as modern homes, offices, and travel. It has strong practical value and promising prospects for promotion.

[0039] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions conceived without inventive effort should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope defined in the claims.
