Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electrical equipment technology, and in particular to a conductive strip structure and socket. Background Technology
[0002] A power outlet is a device that provides a power interface for electrical appliances and is closely related to daily life and work. Among them, the conductive strip structure, as a key component for current transmission in the outlet, plays a crucial role in the outlet's performance and reliability.
[0003] In related technologies, the structure of the conductive strip is not designed reasonably, resulting in poor stability of the conductive strip structure, which is not conducive to the normal operation of the socket. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a conductive strip structure and a socket, which can improve the stability of the conductive strip structure and make the socket work more reliably.
[0005] In a first aspect, this application provides a conductive strip structure, including multiple main base strips and multiple inserts. Two adjacent main base strips are connected end-to-end, forming a preset angle α. The multiple main base strips enclose an installation space on one side forming the preset angle. Multiple inserts are spaced apart and connected to at least a portion of the main base strips. Each insert has a slot, the opening of which faces away from the installation space. The preset angle α satisfies: 0° < α < 180°.
[0006] In this embodiment, multiple main base strips provide an installation foundation for the conductive strip structure, facilitating its installation. Furthermore, these main base strips can guide the transfer of electrical energy, reducing the possibility of localized energy concentration leading to severe overheating and thus improving the stability of the conductive strip structure.
[0007] Optionally, multiple main base strips are arranged to form a ring structure, and the main base strips enclose the installation space from the outside to the inside of the installation space.
[0008] This ensures better overall integrity of the conductive strip structure, allowing it to withstand external forces and mechanical stresses more effectively, thus reducing the possibility of damage.
[0009] Optionally, multiple main base strips and multiple inserts are integrally formed into a single structure.
[0010] This design ensures better connections between multiple main base strips and between the main base strips and the socket, resulting in smoother energy transmission within the conductive strip structure. Furthermore, it simplifies the manufacturing process of the conductive strip structure, reducing production costs and increasing production efficiency.
[0011] Optionally, the conductive strip structure includes a first sub-strip and a second sub-strip. Both the first and second sub-strips are connected to the main base strip, and the main base strip cooperates with the first and second sub-strips to form a socket. Alternatively, the first sub-strip is connected to the main base strip, and the first sub-strip is connected to the second sub-strip on one side of the connection direction of the multiple main base strips, and the first and second sub-strips cooperate to form a socket.
[0012] The first sub-strip, at one end away from the main base strip, and the second sub-strip, at one end away from the main base strip, together form the slot opening of the slot.
[0013] The above scheme allows for the formation of inserts in different ways on the main base strip, improving the flexibility and convenience of insert setup.
[0014] Optionally, a first guide plate is also connected to the side of the first sub-strip opposite to the main base strip, and the first guide plate extends away from the side of the second sub-strip. A second guide plate is also connected to the side of the second sub-strip opposite to the main base strip, and the second guide plate extends away from the side of the first sub-strip.
[0015] In this way, when the plug of the electrical equipment is inserted into the socket, the first guide plate and the second guide plate can guide the insertion of the plug, so that the plug can be inserted in the correct direction, reducing the possibility of misalignment or poor contact between the plug and the socket.
[0016] Optionally, the main base strip includes a first base, a reinforcing portion, and a second base connected sequentially. The reinforcing portion protrudes from or is recessed into the first and second bases along the axial direction of the mounting space. In two adjacent main base strips, the first base of one main base strip is connected to the second base of the other main base strip. If a sleeve is connected to the main base strip, the sleeve is connected to any part of the first base, the reinforcing portion, and the second base.
[0017] Thus, on the one hand, the protruding or recessed reinforcing parts can improve the main base strip's resistance to bending and deformation. On the other hand, the addition of reinforcing parts can increase the length of the main base strip, promote heat dissipation, and improve the stability and safety of the conductive strip structure.
[0018] Secondly, this application provides a socket including any of the conductive strip structures described in the first aspect above.
[0019] Optionally, the socket has a pin for connecting to a power source. A conductive plate is also connected to the side of each main base strip facing away from the installation space; the conductive plate is electrically connected to the pin.
[0020] Optionally, there can be multiple pins, which are used to connect different power supply lines, and the power source is used to transmit electrical energy through these different power supply lines. There can also be multiple conductive strip structures, with each conductive strip electrically connected to a corresponding pin.
[0021] Optionally, in the connection direction of multiple main base bars, the socket has multiple output surfaces, with at least some of the output surfaces having sockets. The sockets are opposite to the slots.
[0022] The beneficial effects of the sockets provided in the second aspect and the various possible designs of the second aspect can be seen in the beneficial effects of the first aspect and the various possible implementations of the first aspect, and will not be repeated here.

[0040] It should be understood that the phrase "one embodiment" or "an embodiment" throughout the specification means that a specific feature, structure, or characteristic related to the embodiment is included in at least one embodiment of this application. Therefore, "in one embodiment" or "in an embodiment" appearing throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. Furthermore, these specific features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0041] For example, such as Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment proposes a socket 200, which includes as follows: Figure 2 The conductive strip structure 100 shown.
[0042] A socket 200 is a device used to provide power connection for electrical equipment, and it can be connected to a power source. When the electrical equipment needs to be connected to a power source, the plug of the electrical equipment can be plugged into the socket 200. At this time, the electrical equipment can obtain electrical energy through the socket 200 so that it can work normally. In a socket 200 equipped with a conductive strip structure 100, the socket 200 can transmit the electrical energy provided by the power source through the conductive strip structure 100 so that the electrical equipment connected to the socket 200 can obtain electrical energy.
[0043] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the socket 200 may have a pin 201 for connecting to a power source. Thus, the socket 200 can be connected to a power source via the pin 201, allowing the power source to output electrical energy through the socket 200.
[0044] In the socket 200, the conductive strip structure 100 is the part that directly transmits electrical energy. Specifically, the main base strip 10 transmits the electrical energy output from the power supply to the socket 20, which then outputs the electrical energy. Therefore, the electrical connection between the conductive strip structure 100 and the power supply can be achieved through the main base strip 10.
[0045] Specifically, a conductive sheet 14 can be connected to the side of any main base strip 10 facing away from the mounting space 101, and the conductive sheet 14 is electrically connected to the plug 201. Thus, when the plug 201 is connected to a power source, the plug 201 can transfer electrical energy to the conductive strip structure 100 through the conductive sheet 14, enabling the electrical equipment connected to the socket 200 to receive power. Specifically, when the electrical equipment is connected to the socket 200, it can be connected to the socket sleeve 20.
[0046] Generally, power sources use alternating current (AC). The characteristics of AC necessitate the transmission of electrical energy through different power lines. These power lines can specifically include a live wire and a neutral wire, or a live wire, a neutral wire, and a ground wire.
[0047] To enable the socket 200 to adapt to power supplies, the plug 201 may include multiple pins 202. When the power supply line includes a live wire and a neutral wire, the number of pins 202 can be two; the plug 201 can be connected to the live wire via one pin 202 and to the neutral wire via the other pin 202. In this case, the number of conductive strip structures 100 can also be two, with each conductive strip structure 100 connected to one of the two pins 202.
[0048] When the power supply line includes a live wire, a neutral wire, and a ground wire, the number of pins 202 can be three, and the plug 201 can be connected to the live wire, the neutral wire, and the ground wire respectively through the three pins 202. In this case, the number of conductive strip structures 100 can also be three, and the three conductive strip structures 100 can be connected to the three pins 202 respectively.
[0049] It should be noted that the plug 201 can be a built-in plug 201, in which case the plug 201 can extend directly from inside the socket 200. Alternatively, the plug 201 can be an external plug 201, in which case a wire can extend from inside the socket 200, and the plug 201 can be connected to the end of the wire away from the socket 200.
[0050] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in the connection direction of the multiple main base bars 10, the socket 200 may have multiple output surfaces 203, and at least some of the output surfaces 203 are provided with sockets 204, which are opposite to the slots 21. In this way, the plug of the electrical device can be inserted into the socket 200 through the sockets 204 and electrically connected to the slots 21 so that the electrical device can receive electrical energy transmitted from the slots 21.
[0051] The socket 200 has multiple output surfaces 203, each equipped with a socket 204. Correspondingly, the socket sleeve 20 can be positioned opposite the sockets 204 on each of the output surfaces 203. Thus, the sockets 204 on the multiple output surfaces 203 of the socket 200 can all serve as interfaces for connecting electrical devices to the power supply. In other words, the sockets 204 of the socket 200 can be distributed across different output surfaces 203, allowing electrical devices to select the appropriate socket 204 to connect to the socket 200 based on actual needs, improving the flexibility of the socket 200's use and reducing interference between different electrical devices.
[0052] In this configuration, the socket 200 has multiple output surfaces 203 with sockets 204, which can meet the needs of multiple electrical devices connecting to the socket 200 simultaneously. Specifically, the socket 200 can be a cube socket or a tower-style socket, etc. This application embodiment does not specifically limit the specific type of socket 200.
[0053] Of course, among the multiple output surfaces 203, some output surfaces 203 may not have sockets 204. In this case, the main base strip 10 opposite to these output surfaces 203 may not have sockets 20.
[0054] The conductive strip structure 100 provided in the embodiments of this application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0055] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, this application provides a conductive strip structure 100, including a plurality of main base strips 10 and a plurality of inserts 20. Two adjacent main base strips 10 are connected end-to-end, forming a preset angle α. The plurality of main base strips 10 enclose an installation space 101 on one side forming the preset angle. A plurality of inserts 20 are spaced apart and connected to at least a portion of the main base strips 10. Each insert 20 has a slot 21, the opening of which faces away from the installation space 101.
[0056] In this embodiment, multiple main base strips 10 are connected sequentially to provide a path for the transmission of electrical energy. Adjacent main base strips 10 are separated by a predetermined angle α, thus forming a continuous structure and guiding the transmission of electrical energy, resulting in more uniform energy transmission.
[0057] The preset included angle α satisfies the condition: 0° < α < 180°. This causes multiple main base strips 10 to bend to the same side, forming an installation space 101 on the side where the preset included angle is located. The installation space 101 serves to position and install the conductive strip structure 100. When installing the conductive strip structure 100 in the socket 200, it can be installed through the installation space 101. For example, a bracket can be provided in the socket 200, which can pass through the installation space 101 and connect to the conductive strip structure 100, etc.
[0058] In the conductive strip structure 100 proposed in this application, multiple sockets 20 can be connected at intervals to at least a portion of the main base strip 10 to transmit the electrical energy transmitted by the main base strip 10. Since the slot opening of the slot 21 is away from the installation space 101, it is convenient to insert the plug of the electrical equipment, which can reduce the possibility that the installation of the conductive strip structure 100 will affect the normal use of the sockets 20.
[0059] In summary, in this embodiment, the conductive strip structure 100, including multiple main base strips 10, provides an installation foundation for the conductive strip structure 100, facilitating its installation in the socket 200. Furthermore, the multiple main base strips 10 can guide the transmission of electrical energy, resulting in a more uniform distribution of energy on the conductive strip during transmission. This reduces the possibility of localized energy concentration leading to severe overheating in the conductive strip structure 100, thereby improving the stability of the conductive strip structure 100 and ensuring higher reliability of the socket 200 equipped with the aforementioned conductive strip structure 100.
[0060] It should be noted that, in the embodiments of this application, the preset included angle α can be 55°, 68°, 90°, 110°, or 125°, etc. The specific angle value of the preset included angle α is not specifically limited in this embodiment. Furthermore, the angle value of the preset included angle α formed between different main base strips 10 can be the same or different. This is also not specifically limited in this respect.
[0061] To make the solution and beneficial effects of this application clearer, this application will be described in detail in conjunction with relevant technologies.
[0062] In related technologies, conductive strips typically radiate multiple branches from a central connection point, with each branch connected to a socket. This configuration concentrates electrical energy at the central connection point, resulting in a high current density and potentially causing overheating and other adverse effects. Furthermore, this radial conductive strip lacks a defined installation base, hindering installation. Additionally, during installation and use, the conductive strip may be subjected to external forces. These forces are dispersed, especially for individual branches, making the conductive strip more susceptible to damage.
[0063] In the conductive strip structure 100 proposed in this embodiment, multiple main base strips 10 are connected sequentially in a non-radiative manner. This allows the multiple main base strips 10 to guide the transfer of electrical energy, resulting in a more uniform distribution of electrical energy. The sequential connection of the multiple main base strips 10 also provides an installation space 101 within the conductive strip structure 100, improving the ease of installation. Furthermore, if the conductive strip structure 100 is subjected to external forces during installation and use, the forces can be dispersed along the multiple main base strips 10, reducing the problem of localized force concentration and improving the stability of the conductive strip structure 100.
[0064] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, multiple main base strips 10 can be arranged into a ring structure, and the main base strips 10 enclose the mounting space 101 in the direction from the outside of the mounting space 101 to the inside of the mounting space 101.
[0065] In this way, the beginning and end of any one of the main base strips 10 are connected to the adjacent main base strip 10. This allows for a larger number of main base strips 10 in the conductive strip structure 100. Consequently, a larger number of sockets 20 can be connected to the conductive strip structure 100, enabling the socket 200 equipped with the conductive strip structure 100 to connect to a wider range of electrical devices.
[0066] Furthermore, the main base strip 10 of the ring structure can also make the conductive strip structure 100 more robust, so that the conductive strip structure 100 can better withstand external forces and mechanical stresses, and reduce the possibility of damage to the conductive strip structure 100.
[0067] Of course, the structure formed by multiple main base strips 10 can also have openings. In this case, two of the main base strips 10 can be separated, so that the installation space 101 is not closed at the opening. For example, the multiple main base strips 10 can form an "L" or "U" shaped structure, etc. In this arrangement, the opening facilitates the installation and disassembly of the conductive strip structure 100. Specifically, the opening on the conductive strip structure 100 allows the conductive strip structure 100 to deform to facilitate installation and disassembly, or the conductive strip structure 100 can be directly installed through the opening, so that the bracket can be easily set in the installation space 101 to complete the installation of the conductive strip structure 100.
[0068] Understandably, the specific configuration of the main base strip 10 can be selected based on the structure of the socket 200 and the design of the socket 204. Taking a Rubik's Cube socket as an example, the Rubik's Cube socket has a cube or near-cube structure with six surfaces.
[0069] The pin 201 can be disposed on one of the surfaces, which will be referred to as the insertion surface for ease of description. The four surfaces adjacent to and connected to the insertion surface are called output surfaces 203. The projected shape of the four output surfaces 203 in the direction from the insertion surface to the surface opposite the insertion surface is square. At this time, the number of main base strips 10 is also four, and the four main base strips 10 can form a square, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown.
[0070] At this time, each of the four output surfaces 203 can be provided with a socket 204, and correspondingly, each of the four main base strips 10 can be provided with a sleeve 20. Alternatively, only some of the four output surfaces 203 can be provided with sockets 204, and correspondingly, the main base strip 10 opposite to the output surface 203 with sockets 204 is provided with a sleeve 20.
[0071] When only some output surfaces 203 have sockets 204, the main base strip 10 can also be configured in other ways besides the above-described configuration. For example, if there are two output surfaces 203 with sockets 204 and the two output surfaces 203 with sockets 204 are adjacent, the number of main base strips 10 can also be two, in which case the main base strips 10 form an "L"-like structure. If there are two output surfaces 203 with sockets 204 and the two output surfaces 203 with sockets 204 are opposite, the number of main base strips 10 can be three, in which case the main base strips 10 form a "U"-like structure, etc. This application embodiment does not specifically limit this, as long as the socket 20 of the conductive strip structure 100 corresponds to the socket 204 on the socket 200.
[0072] It is understood that the socket 200 and the conductive strip structure 100 are not limited to the above-described configurations. For example, the socket 200 can be a triangular prism, a pentagonal prism, or a hexagonal prism, etc. In this case, the projected shapes of the multiple main base strips 10 in the axial direction of the mounting space 101 can also be varied. As an optional embodiment, the socket 200 can also be a cylinder, in which case the shape formed by the enclosing of the multiple main base strips 10 can be circular or arc-shaped.
[0073] In some embodiments, the multiple main base strips 10 can be integrally formed with the multiple inserts 20. This improves the connection between the multiple main base strips 10 and between the main base strips 10 and the inserts 20, resulting in smoother energy transmission within the conductive strip structure 100. Furthermore, this arrangement simplifies the manufacturing process of the conductive strip structure 100, reduces production costs, and improves production efficiency.
[0074] Specifically, when fabricating the conductive strip structure 100, a copper sheet can be taken first and then stamped and cut to form the required shape, such as... Figure 4 As shown. The stamped and cut copper sheet can then be bent to form the conductive strip structure 100. In this configuration, there are no additional solder joints between the multiple main base strips 10 and the main base strips 10 and the socket 20, which can avoid the possibility of problems such as false soldering, missing soldering and poor soldering, reduce contact resistance and improve the overall strength and conductivity of the conductive strip structure 100.
[0075] It should be noted that the conductive strip structure 100 can be made of materials such as pure copper, tin phosphor bronze, brass or copper alloy. The specific material of the conductive strip structure 100 is not specifically limited in this application embodiment, and can be selected based on a comprehensive consideration of conductivity, mechanical strength, corrosion resistance and cost.
[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the conductive strip structure 100 may include a first sub-strip 102 and a second sub-strip 103. Both the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can be connected to the main base strip 10. The main base strip 10 can cooperate with the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 to form a socket 20. The end of the first sub-strip 102 facing away from the main base strip 10, and the end of the second sub-strip 103 facing away from the main base strip 10, form a slot 21. In this way, the plug of the electrical device can be inserted into the socket 20 along the direction from the outside to the inside of the mounting space 101.
[0077] Through the above scheme, the main base strip 10 forms part of the socket 20 connected to it, which can form a more compact and reliable electrical connection between the socket 20 and the main base strip 10, making the transmission of electrical energy smoother and more reliable. In addition, this arrangement can reduce the amount of material used and the cost of the conductive strip structure 100, and can better control costs.
[0078] In this embodiment, the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can have different configurations. For example, in the direction from the outside to the inside of the mounting space 101, the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can be connected to opposite sides of the main base strip 10. Thus, one of the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 located inside the mounting space 101 can be bent outwards to face the other of the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 located outside the mounting space 101. In this way, the first sub-strip 102, the second sub-strip 103, and the portion of the main base strip 10 located between the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can cooperate to form a sleeve 20, such as... Figure 3 The insert 20 is shown at point A in the middle.
[0079] This type of sleeve 20 is suitable for situations where the installation space 101 near the main base strip 10 is relatively large and there is little interference with other parts. For example, on a main base strip 10, the connection position of the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can be the middle of the main base strip 10 in the connection direction of multiple main base strips 10.
[0080] Alternatively, the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can also be connected to adjacent main base strips 10, both located in the external space of the mounting space 101. In this way, the first sub-strip 102 can be bent toward the main base strip 10 to which the second sub-strip 103 is connected, or the second sub-strip 103 can be bent toward the main base strip 10 to which the first sub-strip 102 is connected, so that the first sub-strip 102, the second sub-strip 103, and the portion of the main base strip 10 between the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can cooperate to form a sleeve 20, such as... Figure 3 The insert 20 is shown at point B.
[0081] This type of insert 20 is suitable for locations with a small mounting space 101 near the main base strip 10, such as the corner of a structure formed by connecting multiple main base strips 10. This reduces the likelihood of the insert 20 protruding outwards from the conductive strip structure 100 and occupying a large amount of space.
[0082] In addition to the above-described configuration, the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 can also be located on the same side of the same main base strip 10, and both are located on the side of the main base strip 10 facing away from the internal space of the mounting space 101. Specifically, the first sub-strip 102 can be connected to the main base strip 10, and the first sub-strip 102 is connected to the second sub-strip 103 on one side of the connection direction of the multiple main base strips 10. The first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 cooperate to form a sleeve 20, such as... Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown.
[0083] In this configuration, the second sub-strip 103 is not connected to the main base strip 10, allowing the second sub-strip 103 to be bent so that it can be aligned with the first sub-strip 102. This arrangement of the insert 20 is suitable for conductive strip structures 100 with a small number of inserts 20 required.
[0084] Generally, a socket 200 will have different types of sockets 204, such as two-prong sockets and three-prong sockets. For ease of explanation, the conductive strip structure 100 connected to the live wire is called the live wire conductor structure, the conductive strip structure 100 connected to the neutral wire is called the neutral wire conductor structure, and the conductive strip structure 100 connected to the ground wire is called the ground wire conductor structure.
[0085] The two-prong socket includes two prongs 204, which are respectively opposite to the sleeves 20 in the live wire conductive structure and the neutral wire conductive structure. The three-prong socket includes three prongs 204, which are respectively opposite to the sleeves 20 in the live wire conductive structure, the neutral wire conductive structure, and the ground wire conductive structure.
[0086] Therefore, in a socket 200, there are generally more sockets 20 in the live wire conductive structure and the neutral wire conductive structure, while there are fewer sockets 20 in the ground wire conductive structure. In this embodiment, the arrangement of the first sub-strip 102 and the second sub-strip 103 on the same side of the same main base strip 10 is more suitable for the conductive strip structure connected to the ground wire.
[0087] It is understood that in practical applications, a suitable method can be selected to form the sleeve 20 according to the specific circumstances of the conductive strip structure 100. Furthermore, different or the same method can be selected to form the sleeve 20 within the same conductive strip structure 100. This application does not specifically limit this aspect.
[0088] It is understandable that, in addition to the above-mentioned setup, the insert 20 can also be connected to the main base strip 10 by welding or bonding.
[0089] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, a first guide plate 104 may be connected to the side of the first sub-strip 102 away from the main base strip 10, and the first guide plate 104 extends away from the side of the second sub-strip 103. A second guide plate 105 may be connected to the side of the second sub-strip 103 away from the main base strip 10, and the second guide plate 105 extends away from the side of the first sub-strip 102.
[0090] Thus, the first guide plate 104 and the second guide plate 105 gradually move away from each other in the direction from the inside to the outside of the slot 21. In this way, when the plug of the electrical device is inserted into the socket 20, the first guide plate 104 and the second guide plate 105 can guide the insertion of the plug. Specifically, the plug can gradually enter the socket 20 along the inclined first guide plate 104 and the second guide plate 105, ensuring that the plug is inserted in the correct direction and reducing the possibility of misalignment or poor contact between the plug and the socket 20.
[0091] In some embodiments, such as Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the main base strip 10 may include a first base 11, a reinforcing portion 12, and a second base 13 connected in sequence. The reinforcing portion 12 protrudes from or is recessed into the first base 11 and the second base 13 along the axial direction of the mounting space 101. In two adjacent main base strips 10, the first base 11 of one main base strip 10 is connected to the second base 13 of the other main base strip 10.
[0092] In this embodiment, the main base strip 10 protrudes or retracts along the axis of the mounting space 101 at the location of the reinforcing portion 12, making the plane where the reinforcing portion 12 is located different from the planes where the first base portion 11 and the second base portion 13 are located. Thus, on the one hand, the protruding or retracted reinforcing portion 12 can form a reinforcing rib on the main base strip 10, improving the main base strip 10's resistance to bending and deformation. On the other hand, the provision of the reinforcing portion 12 can increase the length of the main base strip 10, promoting heat dissipation and improving the stability and safety of the conductive strip structure 100.
[0093] Furthermore, the reinforcing part 12 can also serve as a structure for engaging with the bracket, facilitating the installation of the conductive strip structure 100. For example, the bracket can have a slot, allowing the conductive strip structure 100 to be fitted onto the bracket during installation, while the reinforcing part 12 engages with the slot. In this way, the conductive strip structure 100 can be positioned on the bracket by the reinforcing part 12, ensuring a fixed position of the conductive strip structure 100 on the bracket. This reduces the possibility of the conductive strip structure 100 sliding or wobbling on the bracket, leading to an unstable position and potentially affecting the normal use of the socket 200.
[0094] In the main base strip 10, the first base 11, the reinforcing part 12, and the second base 13 are all parts on which insert sleeves can be provided. When one insert sleeve 20 is provided on the main base strip 10, the insert sleeve 20 can be connected to any one of the first base 11, the reinforcing part 12, and the second base 13. When multiple insert sleeves 20 are provided on the main base strip 10, the multiple insert sleeves can be distributed on the first base 11, the reinforcing part 12, and the second base 13.
[0095] When the conductive strip structure 100 is used to connect a live wire or a neutral wire, and also to connect a three-prong plug, an inclined socket 20 needs to be provided on the main base strip 10. In this case, for ease of manufacturing and installation, the inclined socket 20 can be directly connected to the reinforcing part 12. The socket for connecting a two-prong plug can be connected to the first base 11 and / or the second base 13.
[0096] In this embodiment, the conductive strip structure 100, including multiple main base strips 10, provides an installation base for the conductive strip structure 100, facilitating its installation in the socket 200. Furthermore, the multiple main base strips 10 can guide the transmission of electrical energy, resulting in a more uniform distribution of energy on the conductive strip during transmission. This reduces the possibility of localized energy concentration in the conductive strip structure 100 leading to severe overheating, thereby improving the stability of the conductive strip structure 100 and ensuring higher reliability of the socket 200 equipped with the aforementioned conductive strip structure 100.
[0097] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are merely specific implementations of this application, but the scope of protection of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application should be determined by the scope of the claims.
