Abstract

This utility model discloses an IoT socket with anti-electric shock function, including a socket box and a protective component on its surface. The protective component is connected to a bending pressure plate and a linkage bar via a shaft seat. The linkage bar has a synchronous groove that engages with the sliding column of the movable column. A torsion handle, a spring, and a connecting block are sequentially installed on the top of the movable column, while a locking block is provided at the bottom, which is linked with the lifting groove, positioning hole, and locking groove of the column. After the plug is inserted, rotating and pressing the torsion handle causes the movable column to move downward. The bending pressure plate rotates and presses the two sides of the plug. After the spring contracts and stores energy, the locking block engages with the locking groove to complete the fixation. When the plug is abnormally dislodged, the bending pressure plate flips outward, causing the linkage bar to rotate. This causes the movable column to move upward through the synchronous groove, and the spring limits the plug's disengagement range and automatically resets it, preventing a partial leak or partial connection. This device effectively prevents children from touching the plug gaps, significantly improving electric shock safety; it is also compatible with plugs of different heights, making it highly versatile and practical.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket technology, specifically to an IoT socket with anti-electric shock function. Background Technology

[0002] Publication number CN220456771U discloses a socket with anti-electric shock function, including a socket body with a three-prong plug inserted into the front side of the socket body. By pressing down on a pressing plate, the downward movement of the pressing plate will cause a U-shaped lifting plate to move downward. At this time, the return spring will contract and shorten. Since the upper surface of the U-shaped sliding plate and the side of the U-shaped lifting plate are movably connected by a connecting diagonal rod, when the U-shaped lifting plate moves downward, the two U-shaped sliding plates will move away from each other. At this time, the two limiting components will also move away from each other. Then, the three-prong plug is inserted into the socket body, and then the pressing plate is released. At this time, due to the elastic force of the return spring, the U-shaped lifting plate will move upward, and the two limiting components will move closer together, thereby limiting the three-prong plug and preventing it from falling out. If the three-prong plug falls out, there will be a risk of electric shock. However, this patent still has the following problems in actual use: The lifting plate of the aforementioned device cannot be locked in position. When the pulling force on the plug is large, the limiting plate moves to both sides due to the force on the inclined surface, which can cause the plug to detach from the socket. Furthermore, due to the obstruction of the limiting plate, the plug may not be able to detach completely, resulting in a semi-exposed and semi-connected state. As a result, children's fingers can be inserted into the gap, creating a safety hazard.

[0003] An IoT socket with anti-electric shock function is proposed to solve the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an IoT socket with anti-electric shock function to solve the problem that the lifting plate of the device mentioned in the background art cannot be locked, which causes the limiting plate to move to both sides due to the force of the inclined surface when the pulling force of the plug is large, which will cause the plug to detach from the socket. Furthermore, due to the obstruction of the limiting plate, the plug may not be able to detach completely, resulting in a semi-exposed and semi-connected state, which allows children's fingers to pry into the gap, causing safety hazards.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an IoT socket with anti-electric shock function, including a socket box, wherein a plug is inserted into the top surface of the socket box; The surface of the socket box is provided with a protective component, which includes a pair of bearings fixedly installed on the surface of the socket box. A bending pressure plate is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft of the bearing. A linkage bar is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the bearing. A synchronization groove is opened in the middle of the linkage bar. The socket box has a movable column vertically slidably connected to the middle of one side. The top of the movable column is equipped with a torsion handle, a washer, a spring, a connecting block, and a connecting pad in sequence from top to bottom. The sliding column is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting block. The inner top surface of the socket box is fixedly connected to a cylinder, and the bottom end of the movable column is fixedly connected to a locking block.

[0006] Preferably, the two linkage bars are staggered, the two synchronization grooves are simultaneously slidably connected to the sliding column, and the movable end of the bending pressure plate is fitted and overlapped with both sides of the plug.

[0007] Preferably, the top end of the movable column is fixedly connected to the torsion handle, the spring is sleeved on the outside of the movable column, and the washer is in contact with the bottom surface of the torsion handle.

[0008] Preferably, the connecting pad is slidably sleeved on the outside of the movable column, and the connecting block is movably sleeved on the outside of the movable column.

[0009] Preferably, the top end of the spring is fixedly connected to the washer, and the bottom end of the spring is fixedly connected to the connecting block.

[0010] Preferably, the cylinder has a lifting groove in the middle, a positioning hole at the top, and a locking groove at the bottom.

[0011] Preferably, the diameter of the movable column is not greater than the width of the locking block, the locking block is slidably connected to the lifting groove, the locking block is engaged with the locking groove, and the locking block can move inside the positioning hole.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: this IoT socket with anti-electric shock function can effectively prevent the plug from accidentally coming out completely, avoid the partial leakage and partial connection state to reduce the risk of electric shock, and is compatible with various plug specifications. It is easy to operate, has reliable locking, and ensures safe and stable use. Its specific details are as follows: 1. When the plug begins to move, the bending pressure plate flips outward, causing the linkage bar to rotate. The linkage bar connects to the sliding column via a synchronous groove, causing the movable column to move upward and the spring to further contract to its limit. This prevents the bending pressure plate from rotating further. This series of actions limits the range of outward movement of the plug, preventing it from completely detaching from the socket box and avoiding the plug from falling off due to pulling. Through the spring's restoring force, when the plug tends to come off, the reaction force causes the bending pressure plate to press the plug back into the socket box, preventing a partial leak and eliminating this serious safety hazard. Moreover, since the angle at which the bending pressure plate stops rotating is entirely determined by the height of the plug head, this device can accommodate plug heads of various heights.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Please see Figures 1-4 The present invention provides a technical solution: an IoT socket with anti-electric shock function, including a socket box 1, and a plug 101 is inserted into the top surface of the socket box 1; The surface of the socket box 1 is provided with a protective component 2. The protective component 2 includes a pair of bearing seats 201 fixedly installed on the surface of the socket box 1. A bending pressure plate 202 is fixedly connected to the outside of the rotating shaft of the bearing seat 201. A linkage bar 203 is fixedly connected to one end of the rotating shaft of the bearing seat 201. A synchronization groove 204 is opened in the middle of the linkage bar 203. Among them, a movable column 205 is vertically slidably connected to the middle of one side of the socket box 1. The top of the movable column 205 is installed with a torsion handle 207, a washer 208, a spring 209, a connecting block 210 and a connecting pad 211 in sequence from top to bottom. A sliding column 212 is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting block 210. The socket box 1 has a cylinder 206 fixedly connected to its inner top surface, and a locking block 213 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the movable column 205. When the plug 101 is inserted, by holding the handle 207 and rotating and pressing it, the movable column 205 moves down, and the locking block 213 slides from the positioning hole 2062 into the lifting groove 2061. At the same time, the sliding column 212 drives the linkage bar 203 to rotate downward through the synchronous groove 204, thereby causing the bending pressure plate 202 to rotate through the shaft of the bearing seat 201 until it presses down on both sides of the plug 101. The bending pressure plate 202 can no longer rotate, but the movable column 205 continues to descend. At this time, the fixed-angle linkage bar 203 will fix the height of the connecting block 210, thereby reducing the distance between the torsion handle 207 and the connecting block 210, which in turn causes the spring 209 to contract. The squeezing force of the spring 209 on the connecting block 210 increases until the locking block 213 passes through the positioning round hole 2062. Then, the torsion handle 207 is rotated and released. The elastic force of the spring 209 will cause the movable column 205 to move upward and then be locked into the locking groove 2063. When the plug 101 is pulled out of the socket box 1, the bending pressure plate 202 flips outward due to the movement of the plug 101, which causes the linkage bar 203 to rotate and the movable column 205 to move upward through the synchronization groove 204. This causes the compressed spring 209 to further contract to its limit, thus limiting the range of the plug 101's movement out of the socket box 1 and preventing it from completely detaching from the socket box 1. Furthermore, under the restoring force of the spring 209, the reaction force will cause the bending pressure plate 202 to press the plug 101 back into the socket box 1, preventing the plug 101 from being partially exposed due to pulling and forming a half-exposed and half-connected state. Ultimately, this can prevent children from poking at the plug gap in the half-exposed and half-connected state, achieving the effect of preventing electric shock. Furthermore, since there is a noticeable step between the head of the plug 101 and the handle, but there is a slight difference in the height of the head, this device can accommodate plug 101 heads of various heights, increasing its practicality.

[0017] The two linkage bars 203 are staggered, the two synchronous grooves 204 are simultaneously slidably connected to the sliding column 212, and the movable end of the bent pressure plate 202 is fitted and overlapped with both sides of the plug 101.

[0018] The top of the movable column 205 is fixedly connected to the torsion handle 207. The spring 209 is sleeved on the outside of the movable column 205, and the washer 208 is in contact with the bottom surface of the torsion handle 207. The spring 209 is a strong spring with enough elasticity to allow the bending pressure plate 202 to squeeze the plug 101 to overcome friction and insert it into the socket box 1.

[0019] The connecting pad 211 is slidably sleeved on the outside of the movable column 205, and the connecting block 210 is movably sleeved on the outside of the movable column 205; the connecting pad 211 and the connecting block 210 are fixedly connected, and when the device is in use, the highest point of the movable range of the connecting block 210 is lower than the initial position of the connecting block 210.

[0020] The top end of the spring 209 is fixedly connected to the washer 208, and the bottom end of the spring 209 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 210; the spring 209 can push the connecting block 210 to fit against the connecting pad 211.

[0021] A lifting groove 2061 is provided in the middle of the cylinder 206, a positioning hole 2062 is provided at the top of the cylinder 206, and a locking groove 2063 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder 206; the diameter of the movable column 205 is not greater than the width of the locking block 213, the locking block 213 is slidably connected to the lifting groove 2061, the locking block 213 is engaged with the locking groove 2063, and the locking block 213 can move inside the positioning hole 2062; when the locking block 213 slides out of the lifting groove 2061... After rotation, it can engage with the locking groove 2063 under the subsequent reset movement of the movable column 205, thereby locking the height of the movable column 205. At this time, the bending pressure plate 202 unfolds and will not obstruct the insertion and removal of the plug 101. When the locking block 213 slides out of the top of the lifting groove 2061 and enters the positioning hole 2062, it can rotate freely. When it does not slide into the lifting groove 2061 and is attached to the inner bottom surface of the positioning hole 2062, the height of the movable column 205 can also be maintained.

[0022] Working principle: Before using this IoT socket with anti-electric shock function, it is necessary to check the overall condition of the device to ensure it can work normally. Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, after the plug 101 is inserted into the socket box 1, the handle 207 is rotated and pressed, causing the movable column 205 to move downwards, and the locking block 213 to slide from the positioning hole 2062 into the lifting groove 2061. Simultaneously, the sliding column 212 drives the linkage bar 203 to rotate downwards via the synchronous groove 204, causing the bending pressure plate 202 to rotate and press against both sides of the plug 101 via the shaft of the bearing seat 201. At this point, the bending pressure plate 202 cannot continue to rotate, the movable column 205 continues to descend, the height of the connecting block 210 is fixed, the distance between the handle 207 and the connecting block 210 decreases, the spring 209 contracts, and the pressure on the connecting block 210 increases. After the locking block 213 passes through the positioning hole 2062, the handle 207 is rotated and released, and the spring 209's elasticity causes the movable column 205 to move upwards, locking into the locking groove 2063 to complete the locking process. When the plug 101 is pulled out of the socket box 1, the bending pressure plate 202 moves outward with the plug 101, causing the linkage bar 203 to rotate. This causes the movable column 205 to move upward through the synchronization groove 204, further compressing the spring 209 to its maximum extent, limiting the outward movement of the plug 101 and preventing it from completely detaching from the socket box 1. Under the restoring force of the spring 209, the reaction force causes the bending pressure plate 202 to press the plug 101 back into the socket box 1, preventing a partial leak or partial connection.

[0023] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
