Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket technology, and more specifically, to an extension socket with an adjustable plug. Background Technology
[0002] Wall sockets are sockets built into the wall, and their specific installation method is fixed during the decoration process; however, in actual use, people often encounter the problem that there are not enough sockets on the sockets; in order to solve this problem, people need to expand the wall sockets.
[0003] Generally, extension cords come in two types: portable and fixed. Portable extension cords have longer power cords, allowing the cord to be moved to the specific location of use. However, due to the long power cord, they take up a lot of space and are not suitable for narrow spaces. Fixed extension cords, on the other hand, have a plug directly installed on the back of the cord, allowing the extension cord to be fixed directly above the wall socket. They are suitable for use in places such as kitchens and bathrooms.
[0004] However, the position between the plug and the socket of the existing fixed extension strip is fixed, while the position of the socket on the wall socket panel is not unique. This often makes the existing fixed extension strip unusable, or the extension strip cannot be attached to the wall during use, and cannot be fixed. As a result, the extension strip will wobble relative to the wall, affecting the plugging and unplugging of electrical appliances. Utility Model Content
