Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of wall-mounted switch and socket technology, specifically a multi-hole switch and socket that is resistant to deformation. Background Technology

[0002] Wall-mounted switches, sockets, and other electrical accessories are typically installed on standard junction boxes using ordinary screws. During installation, installers use manual or electric screwdrivers to tighten the screws.

[0003] According to a public notice (Announcement No.: CN222146772U), a device for preventing deformation of switches and sockets that could lead to changes in appearance and performance failure is proposed. This device is applicable to all switch and socket installation scenarios, ensuring that switches and sockets are not affected by human factors and are installed and used in a standardized manner.

[0004] However, in actual use, the installation of the switch socket panel and the back box lacks sufficient precision, which makes it easy for the screws on the panel to shift when tightened, making it impossible to judge whether the installation is completely in place in time. This can easily lead to deformation at the connection of the switch panel. In view of this, we propose a multi-hole switch socket that can prevent deformation. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-hole switch socket that is resistant to deformation, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a deformation-resistant multi-hole switch socket, including a base box, a socket panel detachably connected to the top of the base box via an auxiliary connecting component, and a housing detachably mounted on the top of the socket panel. The auxiliary connecting component includes: A male connector is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the socket panel. A female connector is fixedly installed on the bottom inner wall of the base box. A screw is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the male connector. A spring is fixedly installed on the bottom inner wall of the female connector. A contact block is fixedly installed on the top of the spring. A trapezoidal block is slidably mounted on the bottom inner wall of the female connector. A top rod is hinged to the outer wall of the trapezoidal block on the side away from the center of the female connector. A slider is hinged to the top of the top rod. A prompting rod is slidably mounted through the inner wall of the male connector.

[0007] Preferably, both the male and female connectors are configured as a central cylinder with raised strips around the perimeter, and the top of the female connector has a mating groove of a size that matches the male connector. The accurate mating between the socket panel and the bottom box is ensured by the corresponding insertion of the raised strips around the male connector and the female connector.

[0008] Preferably, the bottom of the contact block is provided with an inclined surface that matches the side of the trapezoidal block, so that the trapezoidal block can be pushed to both sides when the contact block is squeezed by the bottom end of the screw.

[0009] Preferably, the inner walls of both the male and female connectors are provided with movable holes that are adapted to the size of the indicator rod, and the indicator rod slides in conjunction with the movable holes.

[0010] Preferably, the inner wall of the connecting female is provided with a threaded groove that matches the screw. During the assembly of the switch panel, the operator rotates the screw to move it towards the inside of the connecting female until it contacts the threaded groove, thus completing the locking and installation of the switch panel.

[0011] Preferably, the male connector has a reinforcing component inside, the reinforcing component includes a sliding cavity, the sliding cavity is opened on the inner wall of the bottom end of the male connector, and a push rod is hinged to the outer wall of the indicator rod near the center of the male connector, and a rubber pad is hinged to the end of the push rod.

[0012] Preferably, the top inner wall of the connecting female head is provided with another set of sliding cavities, and the width of the sliding cavity is adapted to the size of the rubber pad.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a deformation-resistant multi-hole switch socket, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] 1. This deformation-resistant multi-hole switch socket, equipped with auxiliary connecting components, strengthens the connection between the socket panel and the back box during switch panel assembly. The central cylindrical shape of the male and female connectors, with raised strips around their perimeter, enhances this connection. During screw tightening, the bottom surface of the screw contacts the top surface of the contact block, applying downward pressure. This pressure pushes a slider towards the socket panel until the top of the slider aligns with the top surface of the movable hole in the male connector, indicating that the screw has been tightened to its maximum position and signifying the completion of switch panel installation.

[0015] 2. This deformation-resistant multi-hole switch socket, through the setting of a reinforcing component, when the indicator rod is pushed upward, in conjunction with the pushing force of the push rod and the guidance and restriction of the sliding cavity, causes the rubber pad to move towards the screw side until the outer surface of the rubber pad is completely pressed against the outer side of the screw, thereby achieving flexible clamping of the screw and preventing the screw from easily rotating during actual use, which would affect the stability of the entire switch panel during installation.

[0018] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: a deformable multi-hole switch socket, including a base box 1, a socket panel 2 detachably connected to the top of the base box 1 via an auxiliary connecting component 4, a housing 3 detachably installed on the top of the socket panel 2, and the auxiliary connecting component 4 including a male connector 41, a female connector 42, a screw 43, a spring 44, a contact block 45, a trapezoidal block 46, a top rod 47, a slider 48, and a prompting rod 49.

[0019] In one embodiment of this utility model, a male connector 41 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the socket panel 2, a female connector 42 is fixedly installed on the bottom inner wall of the bottom box 1, a screw 43 is rotatably installed on the inner wall of the male connector 41, a spring 44 is fixedly installed on the bottom inner wall of the female connector 42, a contact block 45 is fixedly installed on the top of the spring 44, a trapezoidal block 46 is slidably installed on the bottom inner wall of the female connector 42, a top rod 47 is hinged to the outer wall of the trapezoidal block 46 away from the center of the female connector 42, a slider 48 is hinged to the top of the top rod 47, and a prompting rod 49 is slidably installed through the inner wall of the male connector 41.

[0020] Furthermore, the upper surface of the socket panel 2 is provided with a groove that matches the housing 3. When the housing 3 is fully installed and closed with the socket panel 2, the top surface remains in the same plane to ensure the aesthetics of the entire switch socket. At the same time, the side of the bottom box 1 is provided with a detachable circular piece to facilitate wiring.

[0021] Meanwhile, both the male connector 41 and the female connector 42 are designed as a central cylinder with raised strips around its perimeter. The top of the female connector 42 has a mating groove that matches the size of the male connector 41. Through the corresponding insertion of the raised strips around the male connector 41 and the female connector 42, accurate mating between the socket panel 2 and the back box 1 is ensured, reducing the difficulty of installing the switch socket. Furthermore, the bottom of the contact block 45 has an inclined surface that matches the side of the trapezoidal block 46, thus ensuring that when the contact block 45 is subjected to the screw 43... When the bottom end is squeezed, the trapezoidal block 46 can be pushed to both sides, causing the trapezoidal block 46 to slide away from the center of the connecting female head 42. In addition, the inner walls of the connecting male head 41 and the connecting female head 42 are provided with movable holes that are adapted to the size of the indicator rod 49, and the indicator rod 49 slides in cooperation with the movable hole. When the socket panel 2 and the bottom box 1 are connected and installed, the indicator rod 49 moves downward with the socket panel 2 until it enters the movable hole opened inside the connecting female head 42, and finally fits against the upper surface of the slider 48.

[0022] In addition, the spring 44 ensures that the contact block 45 always has a tendency to slide towards the socket panel 2. Furthermore, the inner wall of the female connector 42 has a threaded groove that matches the screw 43. During switch panel assembly, the operator rotates the screw 43, causing it to move inwards towards the female connector 42 until it contacts the threaded groove. As the screw 43 continues to rotate, it engages with the threaded groove to maintain a locked state between the male connector 41 and the female connector 42. During the tightening process, the bottom end of the screw 43 presses against the contact block 45. Combined with the inclined surface at the bottom of the contact block 45, this pressure propels the contact block 45 towards the outside. Push the trapezoidal block 46 away from the center of the female connector 42. With the cooperation of the top rod 47 and the slider 48, push the indicator rod 49 towards the socket panel 2 until the top of the indicator rod 49 is flush with the top surface of the movable hole in the male connector 41. This indicates to the staff that the screw 43 has been tightened to the maximum position, reminding the staff that the installation of the switch panel has been completed. This avoids over-tightening the screw 43, which could damage or deform the switch panel. At the same time, the shapes of the male connector 41 and the female connector 42 can strengthen the connection between the socket panel 2 and the back box 1, preventing the overall service life of the switch panel from being affected after installation.

[0023] In an embodiment of this utility model, a reinforcing component 5 is provided inside the male connector 41. The reinforcing component 5 includes a sliding cavity 51, which is opened on the inner wall of the bottom end of the male connector 41. A push rod 52 is hinged to the outer wall of the indicator rod 49 near the center of the male connector 41. A rubber pad 53 is hinged to the end of the push rod 52.

[0024] Specifically, another set of sliding cavities 51 is provided on the top inner wall of the connecting female head 42, and the width of the sliding cavity 51 is adapted to the size of the rubber pad 53. When the indicator rod 49 is pushed upward, in conjunction with the pushing force of the push rod 52 and the guidance and restriction of the sliding cavity 51, the rubber pad 53 moves towards the screw 43 until the outer surface of the rubber pad 53 is completely pressed against the outer side of the screw 43, thereby achieving flexible clamping of the screw 43 and preventing the screw 43 from easily rotating during actual use, which would affect the stability of the entire switch panel during installation.

[0025] In this utility model, during use, the base box 1 is first installed in the wall, and the wires are laid. Then, the socket panel 2 is aligned with the base box 1 and inserted, so that the male connector 41 is inserted into the female connector 42. The operator rotates the screw 43, causing the screw 43 to move inward to the side of the female connector 42 until it contacts the threaded groove. Then, with the continuous rotation of the screw 43, it works with the threaded groove to keep the male connector 41 and the female connector 42 locked. As the screw 43 continues to move, it eventually contacts the top surface of the contact block 45 and exerts downward pressure on it. With the inclined surface of the bottom of the contact block 45, the trapezoidal block 46 is pushed away from the center of the female connector 42. With the cooperation of the top rod 47 and the slider 48, the indicator rod 49 is pushed towards the socket panel 2 until the top of the indicator rod 49 is flush with the top surface of the movable hole in the male connector 41. This indicates that the screw 43 has been tightened to the maximum position, reminding the operator that the installation of the switch panel has been completed.

[0026] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
