[0034] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0035] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.
[0036] First embodiment:
[0037] Please see Figures 1-5 The device includes a panel housing 1 and a mounting base 2. The outer wall of the panel housing 1 has an insertion hole 9, and one end of the insertion hole 9 has a knob 10. The knob 10 is mounted on the top of the insertion hole 9, and a rotating rod 6 is mounted on the central axis of the knob 10. A connecting rod 7 is mounted on the outer wall of the rotating rod 6. One end of the panel housing 1 has a groove 4, and the inner wall of the groove 4 has a reflective light strip 8 and a contact block 11. Through the connecting rod 7 and the contact block 11, when the user rotates the knob 10, the connecting rod 7 contacts the contact block 11, and the two are electrically connected to reflect light. When the light strip 8 is lit, if the light source affects the user's rest quality when using the socket at night, the user can turn the knob 10 to disengage the contact block 11 and the connecting rod 7, thereby cutting off the power to the reflective light strip 8, which improves the practicality of the socket and reduces power consumption. The groove 4 and the fixing block 5 effectively limit the position of the connecting rod 7, allowing the connecting rod 7 to move within an effective space. The connecting rod 7 contacts the outer surface of the fixing block 5 and the contact block 11, which improves the stability of the connecting rod 7 during movement.
[0038] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 3-5 The connecting rod 7 contacts the outer wall of the contact block 11, and the contact block 11 is electrically connected to the reflector strip 8. The end of the connecting rod 7 forms an elastic abutment structure with the contact block 11, and the contact block 11 serves as the power contact of the reflector strip 8.
[0039] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 3-5 The reflective light strip 8 is installed on the inner wall of the groove 4, and the length of the reflective light strip 8 is equal to the circumference of the groove 4. The light source of the reflective light strip 8 surrounds the outer wall of the knob 10, which enhances the aesthetics of the panel housing 1.
[0040] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 The mounting base 2 is provided with a sensing module 3 at one end, and the sensing module 3 is located at one end of the socket 9. The sensing module 3 is an electronic component that can sense changes in the external environment through sensors, convert these physical signals into electrical signals, and then control the operating status of related equipment.
[0041] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 The sensing module 3 is equipped with a WIFI module and is connected to the power connection terminal inside the mounting base 2. The connection between the sensing module 3 and the power connection terminal inside the mounting base 2 can accurately control the power supply status of the socket 9 and the knob 10, thereby improving the safety of the socket when in use and when not in use.
[0042] For details regarding the above embodiments, please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1-4 The socket 9 and the knob 10 are positioned opposite each other, and the outer wall of the knob 10 is provided with multiple USB ports. The multiple ports of the knob 10 improve the practicality of the socket.
[0043] Second embodiment:
[0044] Please see Figures 3-5 The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that, while retaining the features of Embodiment 1, a fixing block 5 is installed on the inner wall of the groove 4, and there is a gap 12 between the fixing block 5 and the groove 4, which improves the lighting effect of the reflective light strip 8.
[0045] A fixing block 5 is installed on the inner wall of the groove 4, and there is a gap 12 between the fixing block 5 and the groove 4. When the reflective light strip 8 is lit, the light source of the reflective light strip 8 shines out from the gap 12, and the light source surrounds the outer wall of the knob 10, which improves the aesthetics of the panel housing 1. Secondly, it also makes it easier for users to quickly determine the position of the hole on the surface of the knob 10.
[0046] In practical operation, this utility model is as follows:
[0047] One end of the panel housing 1 is equipped with a mounting base 2, and a sensing module 3 is embedded on its surface. The sensing module 3 is connected to the power connection terminal inside the mounting base 2, which can accurately control the power supply status of the socket 9 and the knob 10, thereby improving the safety of the socket when in use and when idle, and effectively reducing power consumption.
[0048] Secondly, an annular groove 4 is provided at one end of the knob 10, and a rotating rod 6 is rotatably mounted on its inner wall via a bearing. A connecting rod 7 is fixedly connected to one axial end of the rotating rod 6. The end of the connecting rod 7 forms an elastic abutment structure with the contact block 11. The contact block 11 serves as the power contact point for the reflector strip 8 and is connected to the internal circuit through a conductive copper sheet. When the rotating rod 6 rotates synchronously with the knob 10, the connecting rod 7 slides along the conductive surface of the contact block 11. By changing the contact area, the on / off control and brightness adjustment of the reflector strip 8 are achieved. The rotating rod 6 is fitted onto the knob 10. Within the central shaft hole of knob 10, a coaxial rotating mechanism is formed. When the user rotates knob 10, the rotating rod 6 in groove 4 rotates synchronously, causing the connecting rod 7 to make circular motion within the conductive area of contact block 11. When the connecting rod 7 is fully in contact with contact block 11, the reflector strip 8 is lit at full power. As the rotation angle of knob 10 changes, the connecting rod 7 gradually separates from the conductive area, realizing stepless dimming of the light. When the rotating rod 6 rotates to the limit protrusion of groove 4, the connecting rod 7 is completely separated from contact block 11, and the reflector strip 8 is automatically powered off.
