[0031] See Figures 1 to 3 The power strip provided in this embodiment includes a connector 100 and a main body component 200. This power strip can be applied to various scenarios, including e-sports, home office, and even industrial settings. In particular, it can provide power to devices used in e-sports activities.

[0032] The connector 100 has a connecting portion, and a receiving groove 110 is formed on the surface of the connecting portion. The main body assembly 200 includes a housing 210 and an overload protector 220. The housing 210 has a socket surface 211, and the overload protector 220 has a reset switch 221. The overload protector 220 is located at one end inside the housing 210, and the reset switch 221 is located on the adjacent surface of the socket surface 211. The housing 210 is connected to the connecting portion, and the reset switch 221 is located inside the receiving groove 110, with the outer wall of the housing 210 abutting against the opening of the receiving groove 110 to close the receiving groove 110.

[0033] Specifically, in this embodiment, the housing 210 of the main component 200 is connected to the connecting part of the connector 100 to improve the stability of the power strip after it is installed, making it less likely to tip over or fall. In this structure, the reset switch 221 is inserted into the receiving groove 110 of the connector 100, and the outer wall of the housing 210 fits against the opening of the receiving groove 110, sealing the opening of the receiving groove 110, thereby shielding and protecting the reset switch 221 inside the receiving groove 110.

[0034] When the power strip is in use, the overload protector 220 can monitor the current of the power strip in real time. In the event of an overload or short circuit, the overload protector 220 will automatically cut off the power supply to prevent fire. After troubleshooting, the main body assembly 200 can be separated from the connector 100, allowing the reset switch 221 to be removed from the receiving slot 110. Press the reset switch 221 to restore the normal operation of the circuit. Then, reconnect the main body assembly 200 to the connector 100, allowing the reset switch 221 to re-enter the receiving slot 110.

[0038] Specifically, in this embodiment, the top surface of the connector 100 is the connector, and the housing 210 is placed on the top surface of the connector 100. Under the weight of the main component 200, the bottom surface of the housing 210 is in contact with the top surface of the connector 100, so that the connector 100 can better distribute the weight of the housing 210, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0039] In this embodiment, a plug-in groove 120 is provided on the connecting part. A plug-in member 212 is provided on the housing 210, which is adapted to the plug-in groove 120 and is located on the side of the housing 210 where the reset switch 221 is provided.

[0040] The insertion structure of the insertion slot 120 and the insertion piece 212 can ensure the precise docking between the connector 100 and the housing 210, making the installation more stable and reliable. Furthermore, since the insertion piece 212 is located on the side of the housing 210 where the reset switch 221 is located, when the connector 100 and the housing 210 are combined, the reset switch 221 can be accurately inserted into the receiving slot 110, thereby achieving closed protection for the reset switch 221.

[0041] Since the housing 210 is placed on the top surface of the connector 100, after the insertion slot 120 and the connector 212 are connected, under the weight of the main component 200, the housing 210 can ensure that the connector 212 is stably inserted into the insertion slot 120, and the bottom surface of the housing 210 can press against the opening of the insertion slot 120. This not only improves the stability of the insertion structure of the insertion slot 120 and the connector 212, but also ensures the sealing of the opening of the insertion slot 120.

[0042] In this embodiment, the connector 212 is provided with a snap-fit ​​component. The connector slot 120 is provided with a snap-fit ​​portion that is adapted to the snap-fit ​​component. The connector 212 is inserted into the connector slot 120 so that the snap-fit ​​component and the snap-fit ​​portion are snapped together.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the snap-fit ​​component is located on the side of the housing 210 where the reset switch 221 is provided, so that when the connecting seat 100 and the housing 210 are combined, the reset switch 221 is inserted into the receiving groove 110, and at the same time, the snap-fit ​​component is inserted into the receiving groove 110 and inserted into the insertion groove 120 to achieve snap-fit ​​engagement with the snap-fit ​​part.

[0044] The snap-fit ​​component connects to the snap-fit ​​part to achieve a secure connection between the plug 212 and the plug slot 120, preventing the main body component 200 and the connector 100 from loosening or falling off during the use of the power strip.

[0045] In this embodiment, a reset switch 221 is disposed on a connector 212. A receiving groove 110 is disposed within a connector groove 120.

[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, the reset switch 221 is disposed on the plug-in 212, and the receiving groove 110 is disposed in the plug-in groove 120. Under this structure, when the main body component 200 and the connecting seat 100 are connected by plugging the plug-in 212 into the plug-in groove 120, the reset switch 221 can be accurately inserted into the receiving groove 110, thereby achieving precise docking between the reset switch 221 and the receiving groove 110.

[0047] In this embodiment, the reset switch 221 penetrates the connector 212 along its axial direction. A receiving groove 110 is provided at the bottom of the connector groove 120. The connector 212 can be inserted into the connector groove 120 so that the reset switch 221 is inserted into the receiving groove 110.

[0048] Specifically, in this embodiment, during the process of inserting the connector 212 into the connector slot 120, the reset switch 221 can be accurately inserted into the receiving slot 110, making the installation very simple and quick.

[0049] After the connector 212 is inserted into the connector slot 120, the relative position of the housing 210 and the connector 100 remains fixed, so that the reset switch 221 can be stably placed in the receiving slot 110, which enhances the stability of the connection structure between the reset switch 221 and the receiving slot 110 and prevents external factors from damaging it.

[0050] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the insertion slot 120 is formed on the top surface of the connector 100, with the opening of the insertion slot 120 facing upwards and the depth direction of the insertion slot 120 being vertical. The receiving groove 110 is located at the bottom of the insertion slot 120, with the opening of the insertion slot 120 also facing upwards. Correspondingly, in this embodiment, the connector 212 is disposed at the bottom end of the main component 200, extending vertically, and the reset switch 221 is vertically inserted through the connector 212 and protrudes outwards from the bottom surface of the connector 212. In this structure, the connector 212 is inserted into the insertion slot 120 through the opening of the insertion slot 120, while the reset switch 221 can be inserted into the receiving groove 110.

[0051] In this embodiment, the power strip also includes a wiring port. The wiring port is located inside the housing 210 and opposite to the socket surface 211, and the wiring port is electrically connected to the overload protector 220.

When an appliance plugged into the power strip experiences an overload or short circuit, the overload protector 220 will immediately cut off the power supply to ensure the safety of the circuit.

[0053] In this embodiment, there are multiple wiring ports and socket surfaces 211. Each wiring port corresponds one-to-one with a different socket surface 211. All wiring ports are electrically connected to the overload protector 220.

[0054] Specifically, the wiring port is located inside the housing 210 and is set one-to-one with multiple socket surfaces 211 to ensure that each socket surface 211 has a corresponding wiring port, thereby enabling multiple electrical appliances to be plugged in and powered at the same time.

[0055] Furthermore, multiple terminals are electrically connected to the overload protector 220 to protect the circuit formed by all plugged-in electrical appliances.

[0056] In this embodiment, a plurality of socket surfaces 211 are arranged along the circumference of the housing 210.

[0057] Multiple socket faces 211 are arranged circumferentially along the housing 210, allowing the power strip to provide sockets in different directions. This enables electrical plugs to be inserted from various angles during use, preventing interference between plugs and improving flexibility and convenience. Simultaneously, multiple wiring ports are correspondingly arranged to these socket faces 211, and each wiring port is electrically connected to an overload protector 220, ensuring real-time monitoring and control of current through the overload protector 220.

[0058] In this embodiment, a mounting base is provided at one end of the housing 210. The overload protector 220 is located within the mounting base.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mounting base is disposed at one end inside the housing 210. The contour of the mounting base is adapted to the overload protector 220.
