Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a socket, and more particularly to a socket safety protection mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Socket safety shutters are components used to block the sockets after the plug is unplugged, primarily to prevent children from inserting their fingers or foreign objects into the sockets, thus preventing electric shock and improving safety during use. Existing sockets generally have multiple sockets for different plugs, each with its own safety shutter. These shutters move independently and on the same plane, resulting in them occupying a significant amount of internal space and hindering the miniaturization of the socket design. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a socket safety protection mechanism that can reduce the space occupied inside the socket, making its structure more compact and facilitating the miniaturization of socket design.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a socket safety protection mechanism disposed on the inner side of the socket panel. The socket has a first socket and a second socket. The socket safety protection mechanism includes a first baffle, a second baffle, a first elastic reset member, and a second elastic reset member. The first baffle is slidably disposed within the socket along a first direction. The first elastic reset member is disposed between the socket and the first baffle, so that the first baffle blocks the first socket. The first baffle has a receiving portion with a receiving groove. The second baffle is slidably disposed within the receiving groove along a second direction. The first direction intersects with the second direction. The second elastic reset member is disposed between the first baffle and the second baffle, so that the second baffle blocks the second socket.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, this utility model uses a first baffle and a first elastic reset member to block the first socket, and then provides a receiving groove on the receiving part of the first baffle, so that the second baffle is slidably disposed in the receiving groove, and the second elastic reset member drives the second baffle to block the second socket. Therefore, the second baffle and the first baffle form a double-layer stacked structure, avoiding the traditional arrangement of two baffles moving on the same plane. Therefore, it can greatly reduce the space occupied by the baffle inside the socket, making the internal structure of the socket more compact and reasonable, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the socket and improves the portability of the socket.

[0006] Preferably, the bottom of the receiving groove is provided with a first through hole corresponding to the second socket, and the second baffle covers the first through hole; the length of the first through hole is not less than the sum of the length of the second socket and the sliding stroke of the first baffle. This can prevent the first baffle from blocking the second socket and ensure that the plug can be inserted into the first socket.

[0007] Preferably, the first baffle has a first blocking portion that blocks the first socket.

[0008] Specifically, the first shielding part has a first abutting inclined surface on the side facing the first socket. When the plug is inserted into the first socket, it abuts against the first abutting inclined surface, causing the first baffle to move away from the first socket. The first abutting inclined surface can convert the pushing force of the plug perpendicular to the socket surface into a horizontal push that moves the first baffle, thereby allowing the first baffle to automatically move away from the first socket and ensuring that the plug can be inserted into the first socket.

[0009] Specifically, a first positioning post extends from one side of the first blocking portion along the sliding direction of the first baffle, and the first elastic reset member is sleeved on the first positioning post. By using the first positioning post to position the first elastic reset member, accidental displacement of the first elastic reset member can be prevented, thereby ensuring that the first baffle can automatically return to its original position, improving stability and safety in use.

[0010] Specifically, the number of the first contact slopes is at least two, and the two first contact slopes are not on the same plane. Since some first sockets are formed by combining multiple sockets of different specifications or standards to form a universal socket, by setting multiple sockets in different directions, positions or angles of the first shield, plugs of different specifications or standards can be smoothly inserted into the first sockets, thereby improving the applicability of the socket.

[0011] Preferably, the second baffle has a second blocking portion that blocks the second socket.

[0012] Specifically, the second shielding part has a second abutting inclined surface on the side facing the second socket. When the plug is inserted into the second socket, it abuts against the second abutting inclined surface, causing the second baffle to move away from the second socket. The second abutting inclined surface can convert the pushing force of the plug perpendicular to the socket surface into a horizontal push that moves the second baffle, thereby allowing the second baffle to automatically move away from the second socket and ensuring that the plug can be inserted into the second socket.

[0013] Preferably, a second positioning post extends from one side of the second baffle along its sliding direction. The first baffle has a mounting groove, and a third positioning post is provided within the mounting groove of the first baffle. Both ends of the second elastic reset member are respectively fitted onto the second positioning post and the third positioning post. Using the second positioning post to position the second elastic reset member prevents accidental displacement of the second elastic reset member, thereby ensuring that the second baffle can automatically return to its original position, improving stability and safety in use.

[0014] Preferably, the edge of the second baffle is provided with a guide block, and the inner wall of the receiving groove is provided with a guide groove, the guide block being slidably inserted into the guide groove. This allows the second baffle to slide smoothly within the receiving groove. Attached Figure Description

[0021] To explain in detail the technical content, structural features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the following description is provided in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings.

[0022] Please see Figures 1 to 4The socket safety protection mechanism 100 of this utility model is disposed on the inner side of the panel 200 of the socket 300. The socket 300 has a first socket 201 and a second socket 202. The first socket 201 can be a two-hole socket or a three-hole socket. The socket safety protection mechanism 100 includes a first baffle 1, a second baffle 2, a first elastic reset member 3, and a second elastic reset member 4. The first elastic reset member 3 and the second elastic reset member 4 are both compression springs. The first baffle 1 is slidably disposed in the socket 300 along a first direction (up and down direction in the drawing). The first elastic reset member 3 is disposed between the socket and the first baffle 1, so as to use the elastic restoring force to drive the first baffle 1 to move to the underside of the first socket 201, thereby blocking the first socket 201 and preventing foreign objects from entering. Specifically, the first baffle 1 has two first blocking portions 11, symmetrically located at opposite ends of the first baffle 1, which block two holes in the first socket 201; these two holes are non-grounding holes. Each first blocking portion 11 has a first elastic reset member 3 on one side to balance the force on the first baffle 1. More specifically, the first blocking portion 11 has a first abutting inclined surface 111 on the side facing the first socket 201. When the plug is inserted into the first socket 201, it abuts against the first abutting inclined surface 111, causing the first baffle 1 to move away from the first socket 201. The first abutting inclined surface 111 converts the pushing force of the plug perpendicular to the socket surface into a horizontal push that moves the first baffle 1, thus automatically disengaging the first socket 201 and ensuring that the plug can be inserted into the first socket 201. Each of the first shielding parts 11 has two first contact slopes 111, and the two first contact slopes 111 are not on the same plane. This allows each first contact slope 111 to correspond to different plugs inserted into the first socket 201, thus improving applicability.

[0023] Please see Figures 4 to 6The first baffle 1 has a receiving portion 12 located at the outer edge between the two first blocking portions 11. The receiving portion 12 has a receiving groove 121, and the second baffle 2 is slidably disposed within the receiving groove 121 along a second direction (left and right in the drawing). The length of the receiving groove 121 is greater than the length of the second baffle 2; specifically, the length of the receiving groove 121 is equal to the sum of the length of the second baffle 2 and the width of the second socket 202. The second elastic reset member 4 is disposed between the first baffle 1 and the second baffle 2, so as to use elastic restoring force to drive the second baffle 2 to move directly below the second socket 202, thereby blocking the second socket 202 and preventing foreign objects from entering. The first direction intersects the second direction; in this embodiment, both the first direction and the second direction are parallel to the surface of the socket and perpendicular to each other.

[0024] Please see again Figures 4 to 6 The bottom of the receiving groove 121 is provided with first through holes 122 corresponding to the two holes of the second socket 202, and the second baffle 2 covers the two first through holes 122. The length of the first through hole 122 is not less than the sum of the length of the second socket 202 and the sliding stroke of the first baffle 1. This can prevent the first baffle 1 from blocking the second socket 202 and ensure that the plug can be inserted into the first socket 201. The second baffle 2 has two second blocking parts 21, which respectively cover the two holes of the second socket 202. These two holes are non-grounding holes. Specifically, the second blocking part 21 has a second abutting slope 211 on the side facing the second socket 202. When the plug is inserted into the second socket 202, it abuts against the second abutting slope 211, causing the second baffle 2 to move away from the second socket 202. The second abutting inclined surface 211 can be used to convert the pushing force of the plug perpendicular to the socket surface into a horizontal push that moves the second baffle 2, so that the second baffle 2 can automatically move away from the second socket 202, ensuring that the plug can be inserted into the second socket 202.

[0025] Please see again Figures 3 to 6A first positioning post 13 extends from one side of the first shielding part 11 along the sliding direction of the first baffle 1. The socket is provided with a fourth positioning post 203. The two ends of the first elastic reset member 3 are respectively fitted over the first positioning post 13 and the fourth positioning post 203. Positioning the first elastic reset member 3 using the first positioning post 13 prevents accidental displacement of the first elastic reset member 3, thereby ensuring that the first baffle 1 can automatically return to its original position, improving stability and safety. A second positioning post 22 extends from one side of the second baffle 2 along its sliding direction. The first baffle 1 is provided with a mounting groove 14, which communicates with the receiving groove 121. A third positioning post 15 is provided in the mounting groove 14 of the first baffle 1. The two ends of the second elastic reset member 4 are respectively fitted over the second positioning post 22 and the third positioning post 15. Positioning the second elastic reset member 4 using the second positioning post 22 prevents accidental displacement of the second elastic reset member 4, thereby ensuring that the second baffle 2 can automatically return to its original position, improving stability and safety.

[0026] The number of the first contact slope 111 is at least two, and the two first contact slopes 111 are not on the same plane. Since some first sockets 201 are formed by combining multiple sockets of different specifications or standards to form a universal socket, by setting multiple first blocking parts 11 in different directions, different positions or different angles, plugs of different specifications or standards can be smoothly inserted into the first sockets 201, thereby improving the applicability of the socket.

[0027] Please see again Figures 5 to 6 In addition, the edge of the second baffle 2 is provided with a guide block 2a, and the inner wall of the receiving groove 121 is provided with a guide groove 121a, and the guide block 2a is slidably inserted into the guide groove 121a. This allows the second baffle 2 to slide smoothly within the receiving groove 121.

[0028] When the plug is inserted into the first socket 201, the plug pushes the first baffle 1 through the first abutting inclined surface 111, causing the first baffle 1 to move along the first direction. After the first baffle 1 moves the second baffle 2, the first blocking part 11 moves away from the first socket 201, while the blocking part of the second baffle 2 still blocks the second socket 202. At this time, the plug can be directly inserted into the socket to draw power. When the plug is pulled out of the first socket 201, the first baffle 1 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the first elastic reset member 3 and blocks the first socket 201. When the plug is inserted into the second socket 202, the plug pushes the second baffle 2 through the second abutting inclined surface 211, causing the second baffle 2 to move along the second direction. The second blocking part 21 moves away from the second socket 202. At this time, the plug can be directly inserted into the socket to draw power. When the plug is pulled out of the second socket 202, the second baffle 2 returns to its original position under the elastic force of the second elastic reset member 4 and blocks the second socket 202.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, this utility model uses a first baffle 1 and a first elastic reset member 3 to block the first socket 201. Then, a receiving groove 121 is provided on the receiving portion 12 of the first baffle 1, so that the second baffle 2 is slidably disposed in the receiving groove 121. The second elastic reset member 4 drives the second baffle 2 to block the second socket 202. Therefore, the second baffle 2 and the first baffle 1 form a double-layer stacked structure, avoiding the traditional arrangement of two baffles moving on the same plane. Therefore, the space occupied by the baffle inside the socket can be greatly reduced, making the internal structure of the socket more compact and reasonable, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the socket and improves the portability of the socket.

[0030] The above-disclosed embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present utility model. Therefore, any equivalent variations made in accordance with the scope of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
