[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Please see Figure 1-4This utility model provides: a modular socket with slide rail positioning, including a modular socket body 1 and a mounting slide 2 for mounting the modular socket body 1; the mounting slide 2 is provided with a guide rod 5 and an electric slide rail 6 inside, and an electric contact slide 10 is electrically slidably connected to the surface of the electric slide rail 6, and the bottom side of the electric contact slide 10 is connected to the modular socket body 1; a limiting guide rail 7 is connected to the outer surface of the mounting slide 2, and the modular socket body 1 is slidably connected to the surface of the limiting guide rail 7; protective panels 12 are slidably installed on both sides of the modular socket body 1; a mounting cylinder 14 is connected to the top of the modular socket body 1, and a slide rail positioning component for positioning the modular socket body 1 is provided inside the mounting cylinder 14.

[0022] It is worth noting that, through the coordinated arrangement of the modular socket body 1, mounting slide 2, power-conducting slide rail 6, power-connecting slide 10, protective panel 12, mounting cylinder 14, and slide rail positioning assembly, the modular socket can be freely slid and adjusted on the mounting slide, making it convenient to flexibly add, remove, or adjust socket modules according to power needs, thereby further improving the safety of the socket.

[0023] Specifically, the slide rail positioning assembly includes: a positioning rod 16 slidably connected to the inside of the mounting cylinder 14, and a positioning toothed plate 19 connected to one end of the positioning rod 16; wherein, the outer surface of the mounting slide 2 is provided with a positioning toothed groove 8, and the toothed surface of the positioning toothed plate 19 is configured to cooperate with the positioning toothed groove 8.

[0024] In addition, the mounting cylinder 14 is a structure for assembling the positioning rod 16, which facilitates the control of the positioning tooth plate 19 and its engagement with the positioning tooth groove 8 to achieve the positioning effect. The positioning tooth plate of the slide rail positioning assembly cooperates with the positioning tooth groove to achieve precise positioning of the socket body and avoid sliding and offset.

[0025] The mounting cylinder 14 has a mounting cavity 15 inside. A limit baffle 18 is installed on the surface of the positioning rod 16, and the surface of the limit baffle 18 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the mounting cavity 15. A positioning spring 20 is installed inside the mounting cavity 15, and the positioning spring 20 is fitted onto the surface of the positioning rod 16. An adjustment handle 17 is connected to the other end of the positioning rod 16.

[0026] The limiting baffle 18 works in conjunction with the positioning spring 20 to ensure the stability of the engagement between the positioning tooth plate 19 and the positioning tooth groove 8. The adjusting handle 17 moves the positioning rod 16, facilitating the release of the locking state of the positioning tooth plate 19 and adjusting the position of the modular socket body 1. The positioning spring and the limiting baffle further ensure the reset stability of the positioning rod. During operation, simply pull the adjusting handle to unlock and adjust, and it will automatically lock after being released, balancing convenience and robustness. Through the sliding rail installation structure, the modular socket body can slide freely on the mounting slide to adjust its position, making it easy to flexibly add, remove, or adjust socket modules according to power needs, meeting the power layout requirements of different scenarios.

[0027] The modular socket body 1 has assembly slots 11 on both sides, and the protective panel 12 has assembly blocks 13 connected to both ends. The surface of the assembly blocks 13 is movably inserted into the inner wall of the assembly slots 11.

[0028] Furthermore, the mounting slot 11 is a structure that works with the mounting plug 13 to facilitate the installation of the protective panel 12. The protective panel 12 is movably connected to the slot of the socket body through the mounting plug 13, which can prevent foreign objects from entering the socket, reduce the risk of accidental contact, and is easy to install and remove, making it convenient for later maintenance or replacement.

[0029] The surface of the sliding guide rod 5 is slidably connected to the power-connecting slide 10. The surface of the mounting slide 2 is provided with a moving groove 9. The bottom side of the modular socket body 1 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the moving groove 9. A back plate 4 is snapped onto one side of the mounting slide 2, and decorative fixing rings 3 are connected to both sides of the mounting slide 2.

[0030] Preferably, the movable groove 9 serves as the connection and movement channel between the power-connecting slide 10 and the modular socket body 1. The back plate 4 is a structure that seals the mounting slide 2, facilitating subsequent maintenance. The decorative fixing ring 3 serves to fix the position of the mounting slide 2. The surface of the modular socket body 1 is equipped with a child lock switch for individually controlling the socket's power supply, ensuring the socket's safety. The sliding electrical connection between the power-connecting slide rail and the power-connecting slide ensures continuous power supply to the socket module during movement. The guide rod provides a sliding guide function to prevent the power-connecting slide from shifting, ensuring the stability of power transmission.

[0031] The protective panel 12 is movably connected to the slot via the assembly plug 13, which can effectively prevent foreign objects from entering the socket of the modular socket body 1, reduce the risk of accidental contact, and improve safety. The positioning spring 20 on the positioning rod 16 acts on the limiting baffle 18, so that the positioning tooth plate 19 engages and locks with the positioning tooth groove 8 on the mounting slide 2, which can achieve precise positioning of the socket body and avoid sliding and displacement. At the same time, when adjustment is required, the positioning tooth plate 19 can be engaged and locked with the positioning tooth groove 8 by pulling the adjustment handle 17, so as to quickly adjust the position of the socket body as needed.

[0032] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
