[0038] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a frameless ultra-thin large-panel European-style switch and socket includes a mounting frame 1. Two metal brackets 2 are embedded on one side of the mounting frame 1, and a switch panel 3 and a socket panel 4 are provided on the other side. Each metal bracket 2 has two first slots 5 on its four sides, and each of the four first slots 5 has a first claw 6 inside. The four first claws 6 are fixedly fixed to the mounting frame 1 in a symmetrical manner. A functional module 7 is fixedly connected to each metal bracket 2. Each functional module 7 has locking components on opposite sides, and each locking component is fixedly connected to the metal bracket 2. A first connector 8 and a second connector 9 are fixedly connected to two functional modules 7 respectively. The first connector 8 is movably connected to the switch panel 3. The second connector 9 has four second slots 10 arranged in a 90-degree circular array on the side near the socket panel 4. The socket panel 4 has second claws 11 that are adapted to engage with the second slots 10.

[0039] As an optional embodiment, the locking assembly includes:

[0040] The support plate 12 has one end fixed on the metal bracket 2 and the other end bent and fixed with a limiting block 13.

[0041] A locking screw 14 is inserted through the metal bracket 2, and one end of the locking screw 14 is inserted through the limiting block 13;

[0042] A connecting block 15 is disposed between the metal bracket 2 and the limiting block 13. The connecting block 15 is sleeved on the locking screw 14, and both ends of the connecting block 15 away from the metal bracket 2 are bent at 90 degrees and fixed with a third claw 16.

[0043] A locking nut 17 is disposed between the connecting block 15 and the limiting block 13. The locking nut 17 is sleeved on the locking screw 14 and threadedly connected.

[0044] The stop block 18 is engaged at one end of the third claw 16 near the connecting block 15, and one end of the stop block 18 is fixedly connected to one end of the locking nut 17.

[0045] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, after the locking assembly enters the dark box, the locking screw 14 is rotated to drive the locking nut 17 to rotate. The locking nut 17 drives the connecting block 15 to move, and the connecting block 15 drives the third pawl 16 to move, so that the third pawl 16 cooperates with the mounting surface in the dark box to complete the locking work. By setting a stop 18 on the locking nut 17 to abut against the third pawl 16, the stability of the third pawl 16 is improved.

[0046] As an optional embodiment, the third claw 16 is inclined along the side of the connecting block 15 away from the functional module 7.

[0047] As an optional embodiment, the connecting block 15 is fitted into the through hole of the locking screw 14, which is an oblong through hole.

[0048] like Figure 6 As shown, by setting an oblong through hole, when the European-style switch socket is not in the junction box, the connecting block 15 can drive the third claw 16 to approach the functional module 7 and retract, so as to avoid the problem that the European-style switch socket cannot enter the junction box because the third claw 16 is in the open state.

[0049] As an optional embodiment, the second connector 9 is provided with positioning holes 19 that correspond one-to-one with the second slot 10, and the socket panel 4 is fixedly provided with positioning posts 20 that are adapted to the positioning holes 19.

[0050] like Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the positioning pin 20 and positioning hole 19 cooperate to improve the stability of the second connector 9 and the socket panel 4 during installation.

[0051] As an optional embodiment, the free end of the positioning post 20 extends inward and is provided with a groove 21, and the outer surface of the positioning post 20 is provided with at least one rectangular through hole 22 communicating with the groove 21.

[0052] like Figure 7 As shown, the positioning post 20 is provided with a groove 21 and a rectangular through hole 22 on its outer surface, which facilitates the separation of the socket panel 4 from the second connector 9 and avoids the positioning post 20 and the positioning hole 19 from getting stuck.

[0053] As an optional embodiment, at least one reinforcing rib 23 is fixedly provided on the outer surface of the positioning post 20 and is fixedly connected to the socket panel 4.

[0054] like Figure 7 As shown, a reinforcing rib 23 is provided between the positioning post 20 and the socket panel 4 to improve the stability of the positioning post 20 structure.

[0055] As an optional embodiment, two fourth claws 24 are fixedly provided on both sides of the first connector 8, and two third slots 25 adapted to the fourth claws 24 are provided on the four sides of the metal bracket corresponding to the switch panel 3 near the first connector 8. Furthermore, five claws 26 that engage with the metal bracket 2 are fixedly provided on both sides of the functional module 7 corresponding to the switch panel 3.

[0056] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the first connector 8 and the corresponding functional module 7 are considered as a whole and can be disassembled and separated from the metal bracket 2 through the structure of the fourth claw 24, the third slot 25 and the fifth claw 26. According to the horizontal or vertical installation requirements of the third claw 16, they can be reassembled with the metal bracket 2. While ensuring that the installation direction of the switch panel 3 remains unchanged, the installation direction of the first connector 8 and the functional module 7 can be adaptively adjusted, thus realizing the flexibility of the installation of the switch panel 3.

[0057] As an optional embodiment, the through hole between the socket panel 4 and the metal bracket 2 is either circular or square.

[0058] As an optional embodiment, the surfaces of the switch panel 3 and the socket panel 4 are set with a certain curvature.

[0059] The working principle is as follows: Based on installation requirements, the installation direction of the locking components is determined to adjust the assembly of the metal bracket 2 and the mounting frame 1. Locking is achieved through the first slot 5 and the second claw 11. Since the installation structures of the first connecting piece 8 and the second connecting piece 9 corresponding to the switch panel 3 and the socket panel 4 are different, the socket panel 4 is directly adjusted via the metal bracket 2, and with the cooperation of the second slot 10 and the second claw 11, the installation of the socket panel 4 and the second connecting piece 9 is not affected. After the direction of the locking components is determined, the corresponding functional module 7, along with the first connecting piece 8, needs to be disassembled from the metal bracket 2. After adjustment according to the installation direction of the switch panel 3, it is reassembled with the metal bracket 2 to complete the rotational installation of the switch and socket. This achieves the vertical arrangement and installation of the European-style switch and socket with the junction box, enabling adaptive adjustment and installation of the locking components and functional modules 7 of the European-style switch and socket according to the installation environment, thus providing flexibility in the installation of the European-style switch and socket.

[0060] Those skilled in the art should understand that the discussion of any of the above embodiments is merely exemplary and is not intended to imply that the scope of this utility model is limited to these examples; within the framework of this utility model, the technical features of the above embodiments or different embodiments can also be combined, the steps can be implemented in any order, and there are many other variations of the different aspects of this utility model as described above, which are not provided in the details for the sake of brevity. Any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
