Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket technology, specifically to a power supply structure for a night light socket. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technology, night light sockets draw power through metal springs. Specifically, one end of the metal spring is soldered to the PCB, and the other end is soldered to the socket plate for power. The problems with this structure are: 1. A metal spring mold is required, incurring mold costs; 2. The metal spring needs to be manually inserted and soldered onto the PCB, which is time-consuming, and if the solder joint breaks, it will affect the conductivity stability; 3. The metal spring takes up considerable space. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is how to adjust the power supply structure of the night light socket to reduce cost, assembly difficulty, and space occupation. This utility model provides a power supply structure for a night light socket, comprising:

[0004] The body has a receiving cavity and a first positioning post.

[0005] A conductive sheet, wherein the conductive sheet is housed in the receiving cavity;

[0006] A first PCB board is housed in the receiving cavity;

[0007] A power-taking spring, one end of which is provided with a spring portion, which is sleeved on the first positioning post, and the spring portion abuts against the first PCB board to form an electrical connection, and the other end of the power-taking spring abuts against the conductive sheet to form an electrical connection;

[0008] A power-taking structure for a night light socket uses a power-taking spring for power taking. This structure is simple to assemble, saves time, and eliminates the need for soldering the power-taking spring. The spring's elasticity allows for full contact with the first PCB board and conductive sheet. Furthermore, the power-taking spring is low-cost, eliminating the need for mold costs and reducing production costs.

[0009] The end of the power-collecting spring that mates with the conductive sheet is provided with a hook, and the hook abuts against the conductive sheet.

[0010] The present invention provides a power supply structure for a night light socket. The hook design better achieves the mutual engagement between the power supply spring and the conductive sheet. At the same time, the hook also creates a certain elasticity, improving the stability of the electrical connection.

[0011] The conductive sheet is provided with a positioning structure, and the hook is electrically connected to the conductive sheet through the positioning structure.

[0012] This utility model provides a power-taking structure for a night light socket. The positioning structure allows for better coordination between the power-taking spring and the conductive sheet.

[0013] The main body is provided with a groove and a positioning groove, and the positioning groove is connected to the groove; the first positioning post is disposed on the bottom surface of the groove, and the spring part is accommodated in the groove; a portion of the power-taking spring extends through the positioning groove to the other end of the power-taking spring.

[0014] This utility model provides a power-taking structure for a night light socket. The groove design creates a accommodating and fixing effect, meaning that during installation, the spring part does not need to be fully installed (i.e., the bottom surface of the spring part does not need to completely abut against the bottom surface of the groove). When the first PCB board is installed, the first PCB board will drive the spring part to move towards the bottom surface of the groove. Here, the power-taking spring can be provided with a bent part. The cooperation between the bent part and the positioning groove forms a positioning and fixing effect for the entire drive spring, preventing its installation position from changing.

[0015] The top surface of the groove is chamfered.

[0016] This utility model provides a power supply structure for a night light socket. The chamfered surface creates a guiding effect, reducing installation difficulty.

[0017] The first PCB board has a contact on the side facing the spring portion, the contact extends toward the spring portion, and the contact is electrically connected to the spring portion.

[0018] This utility model provides a power supply structure for a night light socket, and the contact points are designed to increase the contact area and improve the stability of the electrical connection.

[0019] The first positioning post also passes through the first PCB board; or, the body is further provided with a second positioning post, which passes through the first PCB board.

[0020] The present invention provides a power supply structure for a night light socket, wherein the first positioning post and the second positioning post are used to fix the first PCB board.

[0021] The top of the first positioning post is provided with an elastic anti-detachment protrusion; or, the first positioning post and the second positioning post have the same structure, and the top of both the first positioning post and the second positioning post are provided with elastic anti-detachment protrusions.

[0022] This utility model provides a power supply structure for a night light socket, featuring an elastic anti-detachment protrusion to prevent the spring from disengaging and to prevent the first PCB board from falling off.

[0023] It also includes a limiting member that restricts the first PCB board from moving away from the power-taking spring.

[0024] The first PCB board presses against the spring portion.

[0025] The present invention provides a power supply structure for a night light socket. The height of the compressed spring part is lower than the length of the spring part in the normal state, which creates a contact pressure effect and better achieves the electrical connection stability between the power supply spring and the first PCB board.

[0026] It also includes a second PCB board and an operating component. The second PCB board is equipped with a switch button. The second PCB board is electrically connected to the first PCB board. The switch button is located on the movement trajectory of the operating component.

[0027] This utility model provides a power supply structure for a night light socket. The setting of the operating component creates the effect of controlling the night light, that is, the switch button controls the night light to turn on and off. Attached Figure Description

[0041] Example 1

[0042] This embodiment provides a power supply structure for a night light socket, as shown in the attached diagram. Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes:

[0043] The main body 11 has a receiving cavity 111 and a first positioning post 112.

[0044] A conductive sheet 12 is housed in a receiving cavity 111. The number of conductive sheets 12 can be adjusted according to actual needs. In this embodiment, there are two conductive sheets 12, corresponding to the neutral wire and the live wire in the power supply circuit, respectively. In addition, the conductive sheet 12 may also include a grounded conductive sheet 12.

[0045] The first PCB board 13 is housed in the receiving cavity 111. Here, the first PCB board 13 forms the control effect of the entire socket. The first PCB board 13 can be equipped with power supply circuits, control circuits, etc. Those skilled in the art should know the purpose of the circuit board and the corresponding control circuits, so they will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

[0046] A power-taking spring 14 has a spring portion 141 at one end, which is helical and has the functions of elastic deformation and energy storage. This spring portion 141 has a structure consistent with conventional springs. The spring portion 141 is sleeved on the first positioning post 112, forming a fixed sleeve. The spring portion 141 abuts against the first PCB board 13 to form an electrical connection. In this embodiment, the spring portion 141 abuts against the bottom surface of the first PCB board 13 to form an electrical connection. A solder pad is provided at the abutment position between the first PCB board 13 and the spring portion 141, forming an electrical connection through the solder pad. This solder pad can be made of silver or gold. The other end of the power-taking spring 14 abuts against the conductive sheet 12 to form an electrical connection.

[0047] Power is drawn using a power-taking spring 14, which is simple to assemble and saves time. There is no need to solder the power-taking spring 14. The spring force of the power-taking spring 14 makes full contact with the first PCB board 13 and the conductive sheet 12. Secondly, the power-taking spring 14 has low cost and does not require mold costs, thus reducing production costs.

[0048] Specifically, as shown in the attached document Figures 1-5 As shown, the end of the power-taking spring 14 that mates with the conductive sheet 12 has a hook 142. This hook 142 is a bent structure, forming an oblique bend. The hook 142 abuts against the conductive sheet 12. The hook 142 better achieves the abutting engagement between the power-taking spring 14 and the conductive sheet 12. Simultaneously, the hook 142 also provides a certain elasticity, improving the stability of the electrical connection. Alternatively, the body 11 can have a hole, with the conductive sheet 12 and part of the power-taking spring 14 housed within the hole. The power-taking spring 14 is fixed between the conductive sheet 12 and the inner wall of the hole, forming an electrical connection.

[0049] Specifically, the conductive sheet 12 is provided with a positioning structure, and the hook portion 142 passes through the positioning structure to form an electrical connection with the conductive sheet 12. The positioning structure can be a through hole, with the hook portion 142 engaging with the through hole to form a hook-and-lock electrical connection; alternatively, the positioning structure can be a slot type, with the hook portion 142 engaging with the slot type to also form a hook-and-lock electrical connection; or alternatively, the positioning structure can be a hook, with the hook portion 142 engaging with the hook to also form a hook-and-lock electrical connection.

[0050] Specifically, as shown in the attached document Figures 1-5 As shown, the main body 11 has a groove 114 and a positioning groove 115. The positioning groove 115 communicates with the groove 114, and the side of the positioning groove 115 communicates with the side of the groove 114. A first positioning post 112 is disposed on the bottom surface of the groove 114, and the spring part 141 is accommodated in the groove 114. A portion of the power-taking spring 14 extends through the positioning groove 115 to the other end of the power-taking spring 14, that is, to the end that cooperates with the conductive sheet 12. In this embodiment, the power-taking spring 14 also includes a bent part 143, which is connected to the spring part 141. That is, one end of the bent part 143 is connected to the bottom surface of the spring part 141, and the other end of the bent part 143 is connected to the hook part 142. Here, the power-taking spring 14 is an integral structure. The bent part 143 passes through the positioning groove 115 and extends vertically downward to connect with the hook part 142. The groove 114 is designed to accommodate and fix the spring, meaning that during installation, the spring part 141 does not need to be fully installed (i.e., the bottom surface of the spring part 141 does not need to be completely against the bottom surface of the groove 114). When the first PCB board 13 is installed, the first PCB board 13 will drive the spring part 141 to move towards the bottom surface of the groove 114. The cooperation between the bent part 143 and the positioning groove 115 forms the positioning and fixing effect of the entire drive spring, preventing its installation position from changing.

[0051] Specifically, the top surface of the groove 114 is provided with a chamfered surface 116. In this embodiment, the groove 114 opens upwards, and the top surface of the groove 114 is the assembly direction of the spring part 141. The chamfered surface 116 provides a guiding effect and reduces the difficulty of installation.

[0052] Specifically, the first PCB board 13 has contacts on the side facing the spring portion 141, extending towards the spring portion 141 and electrically connected to it. The contacts increase the contact area and improve the stability of the electrical connection. Here, the contacts can be copper, silver, or tin, and those skilled in the art can adjust them according to actual needs. Furthermore, it should be noted that electrical connection between the spring portion 141 and the first PCB board 13 can be achieved solely through the solder pads on the first PCB board 13 without the need for contacts.

[0053] Specifically, it also includes a limiting member 15, which restricts the first PCB board 13 from moving away from the power-taking spring 14. Here, the limiting member 15 is mainly used to limit the storage capacity of the spring part 141, prevent the spring part 141 from pushing the first PCB board 13 open, and improve the stability of the contact between the spring part 141 and the first PCB board 13.

[0054] Specifically, the first positioning post 112 also passes through the first PCB board 13. Here, the spring part 141 is sleeved on the first PCB, and the first positioning post 112 also achieves the positioning and fixing effect of the first PCB board 13. Alternatively, the body 11 is also provided with a second positioning post, which passes through the first PCB board 13. Both the first positioning post 112 and the second positioning post achieve the fixing effect of the first PCB board 13. The number of the first positioning post 112 or the second positioning post can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0055] Specifically, as shown in the attached document Figure 6 As shown, when the first positioning post 112 mates with the first PCB board 13, the top of the first positioning post 112 is provided with an elastic anti-detachment protrusion 117. The structure of the first positioning post 112 and the second positioning post is the same, and both the top of the first positioning post 112 and the second positioning post are provided with elastic anti-detachment protrusions 117. The elastic anti-detachment protrusions 117 have a gap between adjacent elastic anti-detachment protrusions 117, giving them a certain elastic effect. During installation, they contract inwards. When the elastic anti-detachment protrusions 117 pass through the first PCB board 13, they quickly return to their original position, thus fixing the first PCB board 13 and preventing it from falling off. The elastic anti-detachment protrusions 117 prevent the spring part 141 from disengaging and also prevent the first PCB board 13 from falling off. It should also be noted that when the first positioning post 112 mates with the first PCB board 13, the elastic anti-detachment protrusions 117 on the first positioning post 112 can also restrict the first PCB board from moving away from the spring part 141. When the second positioning post engages with the first PCB board 13, the elastic anti-detachment protrusion 117 on the second positioning post can also restrict the first PCB board from moving away from the spring part 141. Positioning can also be achieved without the elastic anti-detachment protrusion 117 on the two positioning posts; the elastic anti-detachment protrusion 117 only serves an auxiliary function.

[0056] Specifically, the first PCB board 13 compresses the spring portion 141. The height of the compressed spring portion 141 is lower than the length of the spring portion 141 in its normal state, which creates a contact pressure effect and better achieves the electrical connection stability between the power-taking spring 14 and the first PCB board 13.

[0057] Specifically, as shown in the attached document Figure 1As shown, the system also includes a second PCB board 16 and an operating component 17. The second PCB board 16 has a switch button 161. The second PCB board 16 is electrically connected to the first PCB board 13. This electrical connection can be formed through pin headers, ribbon cables, or connectors. The switch button 161 is located on the movement trajectory of the operating component 17. The operating component 17 is configured to control the night light; that is, the switch button 161 controls the night light to turn on and off.

[0058] Specifically, as shown in the attached document Figure 2 As shown, the main body 11 includes a top cover 113, and a limiting member 15 is disposed on the top cover 113. The limiting member 15 is a cylindrical structure extending toward the first PCB board 13, thereby restricting the movement of the first PCB board 13. The limiting member 15 can also be a bolt, which passes through the first PCB board 13 to achieve the limiting effect. The limiting member 15 can also be a clip, which abuts against the side of the first PCB board 13, also achieving the limiting effect. Those skilled in the art can adjust it according to actual needs.

[0059] Specifically, a conductive sheet 12 forms an electrical connection with the first PCB board 13 through a power-taking spring 14, thus forming a phase (neutral or live wire). Those skilled in the art should know that when two conductive sheets 12 form electrical connections with their corresponding power-taking springs 14 (there are two power-taking springs 14), the conductive sheets 12 and the first PCB board 13 can ultimately cooperate to form an electrical circuit. Therefore, the two power-taking springs 14 are not shown in the attached drawings.

[0060] Specifically, this structure can be used in switch sockets or illuminated panels with night lights.

[0061] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
