Multifunctional socket with USB interface

Abstract

A multi-functional socket with a USB interface is disclosed, relating to the field of electrical connector technology. It addresses the problems of existing socket brackets occupying space and interfaces being easily contaminated. The socket includes a middle panel and a front cover. The front cover has a Type-C interface, a USB interface, and a three-prong socket. A slide rail is fixed to the top of the middle panel, and a baffle is connected to the slide rail via a slider, which can slide to cover or expose the interface. A support plate is rotatably mounted on the surface of the baffle, and a limit strip on one side of the baffle restricts the inward rotation of the support plate. In use, the sliding baffle opens the interface, and the support plate rotates outward to form a device placement bracket. Limit blocks at the bottom of the baffle and on the side wall of the middle panel support the bracket horizontally. When not in use, the support plate rotates inward, and the baffle slides back to cover the interface. The improved structure, including the slide rail, slider, limit strip, and limit block, allows the bracket to fold, reducing space occupation, while protecting the interface from dust or water ingress. It provides a charging interface and places devices, extending its service life.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrical connector technology, and in particular to a multi-functional socket with a USB interface. Background Technology

[0002] To accommodate the use of modern smart devices, existing sockets are increasingly adding USB ports to their surfaces for convenient charging. In addition, some sockets have integrated brackets on one side for easy placement of charging devices. However, this structure is inconvenient and not very effective. It not only occupies extra space when not in use, but also makes it easier to break due to accidental contact. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where the support structure is usually a single piece, still taking up space when not in use, and easily damaged by accidental collisions. Therefore, this invention proposes a multi-functional socket with a USB interface.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0005] A multi-functional socket with a USB interface includes a middle panel. A front cover is snapped onto the front of the middle panel. The surface of the front cover is provided with a Type-C interface, a USB interface, and a three-prong socket hole. A ground wire is provided on the back of the middle panel and is fixed by two eyelets. A protective door is snapped onto the back of the middle panel. A second spring is provided between the bottom of the protective door and the back of the middle panel. A switch is provided on the back of the middle panel. The switch passes through a through hole in the middle panel and extends to the outside of the front cover. A first spring and a core connected to the first spring are provided inside the switch. A ground wire nozzle is fixed to the back of the middle panel by rivets. A rocker is installed on the back of the middle panel by rivets, and the protrusion of the rocker makes bevel contact with the end of the core.

[0006] The bottom assembly is located on the back of the middle panel. The bottom assembly includes a bottom cover and a USB component snapped into the bottom cover. The bottom cover is fixed to the middle panel by connecting screws. Three iron terminals are snapped into the inside of the bottom cover. A fixing screw is located on one side of each iron terminal. A copper support plate and a neutral (N) crossover are located inside the bottom cover. The L and N lines of the USB component are connected to the copper support plate and the N crossover, respectively. Two live wire iron terminals are crimped to both ends of the copper support plate. The N crossover connects to the neutral wire iron terminal and the N line of the USB component. Two burner nozzles and an L crossover are located inside the bottom cover. One end of the L crossover is connected to the burner nozzle, and the other end of the L crossover has a silver nail. A film and a lamp holder are located inside the bottom cover.

[0007] In one possible design, a slide rail is fixedly installed on the top of the middle panel, a baffle is attached to the surface of the cover, the baffle is connected to the slide rail by a slider, a support plate is rotatably installed on the surface of the baffle, and a limit strip is fixedly installed on one side of the baffle located at the rotation point of the support plate, so that the support plate can only rotate inward.

[0008] When the baffle slides open the interface, the support plate rotates outward to form a support bracket for the equipment.

[0009] In one possible design, limit blocks are fixedly provided at the bottom of the baffle and on the side wall of the middle panel. The limit blocks are used to support the support plate in a horizontal state after it is unfolded.

[0010] In one possible design, the protective door is linked to the inclined surface of the core-making process via a rocker arm.

[0011] In one possible design, when the support plate rotates inward to a horizontal position, the limiting strip prevents it from overturning, and the limiting block supports the bottom surface of the support plate.

[0012] In one possible design, the USB component is installed on the bottom cover by a snap-fit ​​method, and is connected to the live wire iron terminal and the neutral wire iron terminal respectively by a copper bracket and an N-crossing.

[0013] In one possible design, the grounding wire is fixed to the back of the middle panel by eyelet riveting and is electrically connected to the grounding nozzle.

[0014] In this application, during actual use, the baffle can cover and protect the interface to prevent dust or other foreign objects from entering its interior. When needed, it can be opened and used simply by sliding it to one side. After sliding the baffle to one side, the limiting strip will detach from the surface of the cover, allowing it to rotate inward and thus serve as the bottom of the bracket. The baffle serves as the main body of the bracket, allowing the charging device to be placed directly inside for charging.

[0015] In this utility model, the multi-functional socket with a USB interface can be shielded by a baffle to prevent water splashes or dust and other foreign objects from entering, thereby ensuring its service life.

[0016] In this utility model, the multi-functional socket with a USB interface can cooperate with the baffle through the support plate to form a placement bracket, thereby enabling the placement of smaller charging devices and increasing the practicality of the socket.

[0017] In this invention, the device can be used as a stand for charging equipment, and it can also be folded to reduce its floor space when not in use. It also protects the socket from water splashes and dust, thus increasing its service life. Attached Figure Description
