Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of power strip technology, and in particular relates to a portable outdoor power strip. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing popularity of outdoor batteries and electric vehicles with external power supply, weekend camping trips have become a popular choice for many families. While these devices solve the problem of powering outdoor appliances, they don't meet the demand for charging multiple devices simultaneously. The limited charging ports and narrow usage range of outdoor batteries and electric vehicles prevent them from simultaneously supporting mobile phones, small induction cookers, fans, outdoor speakers, and outdoor projectors. Although carrying power strips can meet the needs of these devices, existing indoor power strips are bulky and prone to tangling, failing to meet the outdoor requirements of being lightweight and easy to store. Furthermore, most indoor power strips are placed directly on the ground, which is problematic in complex outdoor environments. Directly placing them on the ground can cause dirt to accumulate on the strips, making them difficult to clean and increasing the risk of accidents. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a portable outdoor power strip, which aims to solve the problems of poor portability and inconvenience of hanging in the existing power strip technology, and has the characteristics of being easy to carry and convenient to hang.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a portable outdoor power strip, including a plug, a connecting cable, and a power strip. The power strip includes a housing with a cavity inside. A USB charging module and a Type-C charging module are disposed within the cavity. A cable tray is provided between the top and bottom sides of the housing for storing the connecting cable. The front side of the cable tray has a hanging hole communicating with the cavity. An elastic strap is provided on the front side of the housing, including a fixing part disposed within the cavity and a hanging part extending out of the cavity along the hanging hole. The upper and lower ends of the housing are respectively provided with upper and lower cover plates for covering the cavity. An electromagnet is fixed at the middle position of the inner side of the lower cover plate, and the electromagnet is electrically connected to the Type-C charging module.

[0005] As an optional embodiment of this utility model, the connecting wire is flat, one end of the connecting wire extends into the cavity through a connecting hole provided on the right side of the housing, and the other end of the connecting wire is connected to the plug.

[0006] As an optional solution of this utility model, a protective sleeve is provided at the connection between the plug and the connecting wire.

[0007] As an optional embodiment of this invention, the width of the take-up groove is an integer multiple of the width of the connecting wire.

[0008] As an optional embodiment of this utility model, both the front and rear sides of the housing are provided with two-pronged plugs that communicate with the cavity. The load two-pronged plug extends into the cavity along the two-pronged plugs and connects to the wiring terminals provided in the cavity.

[0009] As an optional solution of this utility model, the upper cover plate is provided with a three-pronged socket communicating with the cavity, and the load three-pronged plug extends into the cavity along the three-pronged socket and is connected to the wiring terminal provided in the cavity.

[0010] As an optional solution of this utility model, the upper cover plate is provided with two USB through holes communicating with the cavity, and the USB load is connected to the USB charging interface of the USB charging module through the USB through holes.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the upper cover plate is provided with two Type-C through holes that communicate with the cavity, and the Type-C load is connected to the Type-C charging interface of the Type-C charging module through the Type-C through holes.

[0012] This application provides a portable outdoor power strip. By providing a wiring groove on the side of the housing for a flat connecting cable, with the width of the groove being an integer multiple of the cable width, the cable can be tightly wrapped around the groove, preventing tangling during transport. Two-prong wiring holes on the side of the housing reduce the volume required to accommodate the same number of sockets. The inclusion of a USB charging module and a Type-C charging module within the cavity provides diverse interfaces, and the small area occupied by the USB and Type-C interfaces further reduces the power strip's size. An electromagnet is positioned in the center of the inner side of the lower cover and electrically connected to the Type-C charging module. When the power strip is in use, current flows through the electromagnet, creating a magnetic field. Placing the bottom of the power strip on a vehicle surface or the metal frame of a tent or parasol allows for magnetic fixation. In the absence of a metal magnetic fixation, an elastic strap on the front side of the housing allows the power strip to be suspended in any protrusion or gap, providing convenient hanging and fixing of the power strip. Meanwhile, the elastic strap can also be attached to the insert plate to secure the connecting wire in the cable tray when carrying it, preventing the connecting wire from coming undone.

A cable management groove 314 is provided between the top and bottom sides of the housing 31 for storing the connecting cable 2. The width of the groove 314 is an integer multiple of the width of the connecting wire 1. In this embodiment of the utility model, the connecting wire 1 is set to a flat shape, and the width of the take-up groove 314 is 5 times the width of the connecting wire 1. When taking up the wire, the connecting wire is wound around the bottom of the take-up groove 314 once, and then gradually wound towards the top of the take-up groove 314, with exactly 5 turns forming one layer; the sixth turn is wound around the top of the take-up groove 314 towards the bottom of the take-up groove 314, forming a second layer. The connecting wire is tightly wrapped in the wire groove to avoid tangling when carrying it.

[0029] Reference Figure 2 The front side of the cable tray 314 is provided with a hanging hole 315 communicating with the cavity 311.

An electromagnet 331 is fixed in the middle of the inner side of the lower cover plate 33. The electromagnet 331 is electrically connected to the USB charging module and the Type-C charging module 312. When the plug 1 is connected to the power supply, the current flows through the Type-C charging module and the coil on the surface of the electromagnet 331 to form a magnetic field. In this way, the plug 3 can be magnetically fixed by placing it on the surface of the vehicle body or the metal frame of a tent or sunshade.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5The cavity 311 is also provided with a terminal block 317, which is electrically connected to the USB charging module and the Type-C charging module 312. The right side of the housing 31 is provided with a connecting hole 3110, through which the other end of the connecting wire 2 extends into the cavity 311 and establishes an electrical connection with the terminal block 317, so as to transmit the electrical energy received by the plug 1 from the power supply to the terminal block 317 of the power strip 3.

[0032] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 Both the front and rear sides of the housing 31 are provided with two-pronged sockets 319 that communicate with the cavity 311. The two-pronged load plug extends into the cavity 311 along the two-pronged sockets 319 and connects to the wiring terminal 317 located in the cavity. The wiring terminal 317 transmits electrical energy to the load of the two-pronged plug.

[0033] Reference Figure 5 The upper cover plate 32 is provided with a three-pronged socket 321 that communicates with the cavity 311. The load three-pronged plug extends into the cavity 311 along the three-pronged socket 321 and connects with the wiring terminal 317 provided in the cavity 311.
