Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power strip technology, and specifically discloses a fixing device for a power strip plug. Background Technology

[0002] A power strip, also known as a power strip, extension cord, or extension cord, is a portable multi-socket outlet with a power cord and plug. Its technical name is a power cord extension assembly or extension socket. It combines multiple outlets and provides flexible power supply by extending the power cord. It is mainly used to solve the problem of insufficient or inconveniently located fixed outlets. To prevent plugs from loosening and causing power loss when the power strip is moved to adjust its position, plug securing devices are usually used to fix the plugs in the power strip.

[0003] Chinese patent CN217062744U discloses a fixing device for a power strip plug, applicable to the fields of electronic equipment technology and finance. The fixing device includes: a body; a first locking head disposed at a first end of the body; a second locking head disposed at a second end of the body; and a cable tie adapted to both the first and second locking heads, one end of which is disposed on the first locking head; wherein the other end of the cable tie can sequentially wrap around or pass through the first plug, the first locking head, the power strip, and the second locking head. The cable tie, in conjunction with the first clip, secures the tail wire of the plug to be fixed. After the cable tie passes through the first clip and wraps around the power strip, it locks with the second clip, thus fixing the plug to the power strip and preventing loose connections and power loss. However, the above device occupies space on the power strip, affecting the number of plugs that can be connected to the same power strip and wasting plug holes. The locking design of one end of the cable tie with the first, second, and third clips makes it inconvenient for users to pull the cable tie out of the clips before unplugging the plug, affecting the reusability of the cable tie and the above device. Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, this utility model proposes a fixing device for power strip plugs. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present invention aims to provide a fixing device for a power strip plug, which can avoid occupying the space above the power strip, ensure the utilization rate of the plug hole, facilitate the separation of the first and second protrusions from the third and fourth protrusions respectively, and separate the first and second cable ties from the first and second L-shaped plates, thereby realizing the reuse of the limiting structure and saving resources.

[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] A fixing device for a power strip plug includes a power strip body and a limiting structure. Multiple limiting structures arranged in a linear array are provided on both sides of the power strip body. Each limiting structure includes a mounting plate. A connecting block is provided on the side of the mounting plate away from the power strip body. A first L-shaped plate and a second L-shaped plate are respectively provided at both ends of the connecting block. A first protrusion and a second protrusion are respectively provided on the side of the first L-shaped plate near the connecting block. A connecting plate is provided on one side of the second L-shaped plate. A first cable tie is connected above the connecting plate. A second cable tie is connected above the end of the first L-shaped plate away from the connecting block. A third protrusion and a fourth protrusion are respectively provided on one side of the first cable tie and the second cable tie.

[0007] As a further feature of the above solution, multiple first internal thread grooves are symmetrically arranged in a linear array on both sides of the power strip body, and multiple sets of plug holes are arranged in a linear array inside the power strip body. The positions of the limiting structure and the first internal thread grooves are aligned with the plug holes. Countersunk holes are provided on both sides of the mounting plate to facilitate the user to align the power cord on the plug inserted into the plug hole with the limiting structure, thereby achieving the operation of fixing one power cord with one limiting structure.

[0008] As a further feature of the above solution, a first screw is provided through the inside of the countersunk hole, and one end of the first screw is threadedly connected to the first internal thread groove, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the limiting structure.

[0009] As a further feature of the above solution, the connecting block has two centrally symmetrical second internal threaded grooves on the side away from the mounting plate. Both the first L-shaped plate and the second L-shaped plate have threaded holes inside, and the internal threads of the threaded holes are connected to second screws. One end of the second screw is threadedly connected to the second internal threaded groove, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the first L-shaped plate and the second L-shaped plate. This allows the two L-shaped plates to be separated from the connecting block before the plug needs to be removed, so that the first protrusion can be separated from the third protrusion, and the second protrusion can be separated from the fourth protrusion, thus achieving the purpose of removing the plug without damage.

[0010] As a further feature of the above solution, the cross-sections of the first protrusion, the second protrusion, the third protrusion, and the fourth protrusion are all triangular. The first protrusion and the second protrusion are respectively engaged with the third protrusion and the fourth protrusion, which facilitates the adjustment of the depth of the first cable tie inserted into the gap between the first L-shaped plate and the connecting block, as well as the depth of the second cable tie inserted into the gap between the second L-shaped plate and the connecting plate, so as to tighten and fix the power cord and prevent the power cord from loosening during the movement of the power strip body.

[0011] The four types of clips designed in this utility model are all made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity. The length of the two types of cable ties and the number of protrusions on one side are only for illustration of the number of cable ties and protrusions, and are not intended to limit the length of the cable ties and the number of protrusions in this utility model.

[0012] The present invention has the following beneficial effects during use:

[0013] The design of the plug hole, internal thread groove, first screw and limiting structure makes it easy for users to align the power cord on the plug inserted into the plug hole with the limiting structure, so that one limiting structure can fix one power cord. This avoids the limiting structure occupying the space above the power strip and blocking the plug hole, thus ensuring the utilization rate of the plug hole.

[0014] The combination of the first L-shaped plate, the second L-shaped plate, and the second screw facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the first and second L-shaped plates. Before removing the power cord, the second screw can be unscrewed from the threaded hole to remove both L-shaped plates. The first and second cable ties can then be separated from the first and second L-shaped plates respectively, achieving the purpose of removing the power cord without damage. This allows the limiting structure to be recycled, saving resources. Attached Figure Description

[0025] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The following will refer to the appendix... Figures 1-8 This application will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments.

[0027] An embodiment discloses a fixing device for a power strip plug, including a power strip body 1 and a limiting structure 2. Multiple limiting structures 2 arranged in a linear array are provided on both sides of the power strip body 1. Each limiting structure 2 includes a mounting plate 21. A connecting block 22 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 21 away from the power strip body 1. A first L-shaped plate 23 and a second L-shaped plate 24 are respectively provided at both ends of the connecting block 22. A first protrusion 231 and a second protrusion 241 are respectively provided on the side of the first L-shaped plate 23 and the second L-shaped plate 24 near the connecting block 22. A connecting plate 242 is provided on one side of the second L-shaped plate 24. A first cable tie 25 is connected above the connecting plate 242. A second cable tie 26 is connected above the end of the first L-shaped plate 23 away from the connecting block 22. A third protrusion 251 and a fourth protrusion 261 are respectively provided on one side of the first cable tie 25 and the second cable tie 26.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the power strip body 1 has multiple first internal thread grooves 12 arranged in a linear array on both sides. The power strip body 1 has multiple sets of plug holes 11 arranged in a linear array inside. The positions of the limiting structure 2 and the first internal thread grooves 12 are aligned with the plug holes 11. The mounting plate 21 has countersunk holes 211 on both sides, which makes it convenient for the user to align the power cord on the plug inserted into the plug hole 11 with the limiting structure 2, so as to realize the operation of fixing one power cord with one limiting structure 2.

[0029] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, a first screw 212 is provided through the inside of the countersunk hole 211. One end of the first screw 212 is threadedly connected to the first internal thread groove 12, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the limiting structure 2.

[0030] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the connecting block 22 has two centrally symmetrical second internal threaded grooves 221 on the side away from the mounting plate 21. The first L-shaped plate 23 and the second L-shaped plate 24 are both provided with threaded holes 232. The threaded holes 232 are threaded with second screws 233. One end of the second screws 233 is threadedly connected to the second internal threaded grooves 221, which facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the first L-shaped plate 23 and the second L-shaped plate 24. This allows the two L-shaped plates to be separated from the connecting block 22 before the plug needs to be removed, so that the first protrusion 231 can be separated from the third protrusion 251, and the second protrusion 241 and the fourth protrusion 261 can be separated, thus achieving the purpose of removing the plug without damage.

[0031] like Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the cross-sections of the first protrusion 231, the second protrusion 241, the third protrusion 251, and the fourth protrusion 261 are all triangular. The first protrusion 231 and the second protrusion 241 are respectively engaged with the third protrusion 251 and the fourth protrusion 261, which facilitates the adjustment of the depth of the first cable tie 25 inserted into the gap between the first L-shaped plate 23 and the connecting block 22, and the depth of the second cable tie 26 inserted into the gap between the second L-shaped plate 24 and the connecting plate 242, so as to tighten and fix the power cord and prevent the power cord from loosening during the movement of the power strip body 1.

[0032] The fixing device for the power strip plug disclosed in this embodiment involves inserting the contacts on the original plug into the plug hole 11 before use. Using a screwdriver, the first screws 212 in the two first internal threaded grooves 12 aligned with the plug hole 11 are unscrewed. The two countersunk holes 211 inside the mounting plate 21 of the limiting structure 2 are aligned with the two first internal threaded grooves 12. The unscrewed screws are passed through the countersunk holes 211 and screwed back into the inner side of the first internal threaded grooves 12, fixing the mounting plate 21 and the limiting structure 2. The power cord connected to the plug is laid down so that it is approximately perpendicular to the mounting plate 21. After the first cable tie 25 is wrapped around the top of the power cord, the third protrusion 251 on one side of the first cable tie 25 is inserted into the gap between the first L-shaped plate 23 and the connecting block 22, causing the third protrusion 251 to compress the first protrusion 231 and produce a reversible deformation, so that the third protrusion 251 can smoothly pass through the first protrusion 231. As the first protrusion 231 moves from above to below, the reverse recovery of the power cord causes the first cable tie 25 to move upward, so that the side of the third protrusion 251 perpendicular to the first cable tie 25 fits against the side of the first protrusion 231 perpendicular to the first L-shaped plate 23, preventing the first cable tie 25 from separating from the first L-shaped plate 23, thus fixing the power cord. When the power cord is thicker, it can be used in conjunction with the second cable tie 26 and the fourth protrusion 261. The second cable tie 26 is wrapped around the power cord and the first cable tie 25 from above and inserted into the gap between the second L-shaped plate 24 and the connecting plate 242, causing the fourth protrusion 261 to compress the second protrusion 241 and produce a reversible deformation, tightening the second cable tie 26, so that the side of the fourth protrusion 261 perpendicular to the second cable tie 26 fits against the side of the second protrusion 241 perpendicular to the second L-shaped plate 24, preventing the second cable tie 26 from separating from the second L-shaped plate 24. At this point, the power cord is fixed.

[0033] When the power cord needs to be removed, use a screwdriver to unscrew the two second screws 233 in the same limiting structure 2 in sequence, so that the second screws 233 are separated from the threaded hole 232. Pull the first L-shaped plate 23 and the second L-shaped plate 24, so that the first cable tie 25 and the second cable tie 26 move away from the power cord from the plug, until the two L-shaped plates are completely separated from the connecting block 22. Move one end of the first cable tie 25 and the second cable tie 26 towards the power strip body 1, until the third protrusion 251 and the fourth protrusion 261 are separated from the first protrusion 231 and the second protrusion 241, respectively. Pull one end of the second cable tie 26 towards the first L-shaped plate 23, so that the first cable tie 25 is pulled towards the connecting plate 242, releasing the limiting of the power cord, so that the first cable tie 25 and the second cable tie 26 are separated from the power cord, and the contact piece below the plug connected to the power cord can be pulled out from the plug hole 11.

[0034] The plug-in fixing device disclosed in this utility model includes a plug-in body 1, a plug hole 11, a mounting plate 21, a first screw 212, a connecting block 22, a first L-shaped plate 23, a first protrusion 231, a second screw 233, a second L-shaped plate 24, a second protrusion 241, a connecting plate 242, a first cable tie 25, a third protrusion 251, a second cable tie 26, and a fourth protrusion 261. These components are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principle can be learned by those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.

[0035] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
