Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket technology, and in particular to a rotatable five-hole socket. Background Technology

[0002] As a common electrical outlet in daily life, sockets bring much convenience to people's lives. The most common type of socket is the fixed five-hole socket, but because the direction of the socket cannot be changed during installation, it causes some inconvenience in daily use. For example, when using two-hole and three-hole sockets at the same time, they often interfere with each other, causing trouble for charging and power supply. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem in the prior art where the simultaneous use of two-hole and three-hole sockets often interferes with each other, causing inconvenience in electricity use, and to provide a rotatable five-hole socket.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0005] A rotatable five-hole socket is provided, including a panel with a three-hole plate and a two-hole plate rotatably connected to it, the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate being staggered. The panel also has a sliding base with a ground wire groove, a first neutral wire groove and a first live wire groove arranged concentrically, as well as a second neutral wire groove and a second live wire groove arranged concentrically. Each hole of the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate is provided with a contact piece, and the contact piece is connected to a conductive slider. The ground wire groove, the first neutral wire groove, the first live wire groove, the second neutral wire groove and the second live wire groove are all provided with brushes along the circumference. The conductive slider can be connected to the corresponding ground wire groove, the first neutral wire groove, the first live wire groove, the second neutral wire groove or the second live wire groove through the corresponding brush. The ground wire groove, the first neutral wire groove, the first live wire groove, the second neutral wire groove and the second live wire groove are all connected to terminals.

[0006] The structure of the brush can adopt the form of existing technology, such as using carbon or metal graphite to prepare brush filaments, which are fixed on the wall of the wire groove, and the current is transmitted through the lead wire. This ensures that the conductive slider can be stably and normally energized during the rotation of the sliding groove, and the connection stability will not be affected by the installation direction of the socket.

[0007] An insulating partition is installed between two adjacent wire troughs to ensure safety between each phase wire.

[0008] The rotatable five-hole socket described in this utility model features a rotatable three-hole and two-hole disc for adjusting the orientation of the plug holes. The staggered arrangement of the three-hole and two-hole discs allows for adjustment to accommodate various plug orientations, preventing wire bending and effectively protecting the plug. Simultaneous use of three-phase and two-phase plugs is uninterrupted, making electricity use more convenient. The rotating disc also improves the reliability of the power connection.

[0009] Preferably, the panel and the slide seat are connected by a frame, the frame also includes a base plate, the base plate is provided with threaded holes at the positions corresponding to the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate, the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate are provided with through holes, the grooved section of the through hole is used for one end of the nut of the limit bolt, and the other end of the bolt is threaded to the corresponding threaded hole.

[0010] One end of the bolt nut is fitted with a three-hole or two-hole disc through a through-hole groove, thus serving as a rotating shaft and connecting to the base plate through a threaded hole. This effectively limits the three-hole or two-hole disc to the panel surface, ensuring the reliability and stability of the assembly.

[0011] More preferably, the connection between the panel and the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate is provided with a limiting step.

[0012] The limiting step is used to limit the distance between the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate and the base plate, ensuring the flatness and aesthetics of the side with the mounting panel socket.

[0013] More preferably, the panel, frame, slide seat and base plate are integrally formed components.

[0014] In a further preferred embodiment, the contact piece is connected to the conductive slider via a contact rod, and the contact rod is fitted with an insulating sleeve.

[0015] Further improve electricity safety.

[0016] More preferably, the brush is provided on both side walls of the ground wire groove, the first neutral wire groove, the first live wire groove, the second neutral wire groove, and the second live wire groove.

[0017] Preferably, the brush is replaced on the conductive slider.

[0018] Preferably, the five-hole socket can be connected to the bottom box with a snap-fit.

[0019] Preferably, the terminal block is connected to the ground wire, neutral wire, or live wire via screws.

[0020] Preferably, both the three-hole disc and the two-hole disc are detachably connected to a cover plate.

[0021] When power is interrupted, a cover plate can be used to isolate the circuit and prevent safety hazards caused by accidental electric shock.

[0022] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0023] 1. The rotatable five-hole socket of this utility model, by setting a rotatable three-hole plate and a two-hole plate, is used to adjust the orientation of the plug holes. With the three-hole plate and the two-hole plate staggered, it can be adjusted to adapt to the position of the electrical equipment plug, so that the plug cord of the electrical equipment is not bent, effectively protecting the plug of the electrical equipment. When three-phase plugs and two-phase plugs are used at the same time, there is no interference, making electricity use more convenient. The rotation of the plate also improves the reliability of the power connection. Attached Figure Description
