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.
[0017] Please see Figure 1-6This utility model discloses a self-locking waterproof safety electrical socket, comprising a socket main box 1, a ground electrode cavity 2, an electrode cavity 3, an electrode 6, a ground electrode channel 9, a sliding panel 18, a sliding panel pressure plate seat 11, and a suspended sliding panel pressure plate seat 17. The sliding panel pressure plate seat 11 and the suspended sliding panel pressure plate seat 17 are located on the four corners of the socket main box 1. The socket main box 1 contains a ground electrode cavity 2 and an electrode cavity 3. Sliding panel pressure plates 16 are installed on both sides of the top of the socket main box 1. The sliding panel pressure plates 16 are positioned and adapted to the sliding panel pressure plate seats 11 and the suspended sliding panel pressure plate seats 17 inside the socket main box 1. A spring groove 4 is provided on the outside of the electrode cavity 3. A compression spring is placed in the spring groove 4. The compression spring pushes the compression spring pusher seat 22 on the sliding panel 18 to drive the sliding panel 18 to slide up and down. Below the spring groove 4 is a spring rear force seat 5. An electrode plug 19 is installed in the electrode cavity 3, and a ground electrode plug 191 is installed in the ground electrode cavity 2.
[0018] A ground electrode channel 9 is formed between two adjacent electrode cavities 3. A ground electrode copper sheet extends into the ground electrode channel 9. An electrode 6 is set on each side of the ground electrode channel 9. The electrode 6 is installed in the socket main box 1. The electrode is rotatable. An electrode torsion spring 7 is set on the neck of the electrode 6. An electrode push plate 8 that can move up and down is set on the electrode 6. The electrode push plate 8 is an inclined surface. The bottom of the electrode push plate 8 abuts against the push plate top spring 64.
[0019] An anti-arc plate 10 is formed at the tail end of the polar channel 9.
[0020] The sliding panel pressure plate base 11 has a socket fixing hole 12, and the bottom of the socket main box 1 has multiple wire inlet holes 13.
[0021] Below the ground electrode cavity 2 is the ground electrode epitaxial cavity 14, and below the electrode cavity 3 is the electrode epitaxial cavity 15.
[0022] Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown, the top surfaces of electrode plug 19 and ground plug 191 are arc-shaped, and ground plug 191 has a ground plug lug 192.
[0023] Figure 7 , 8 As shown in Figure 9, the main panel of the socket box 1 has a socket 20, which is a sliding, spaced opening. Below the panel is a sliding panel structure, which includes a ground electrode lug compatible channel 21 below the socket 20 and a sliding panel 18. The bottom edge of the ground electrode lug compatible channel 21 forms electrode bolt pressure rails 211 on both sides. The electrode bolt pressure rails 211 are divided into a ground electrode bolt pressure rail 2111 at the bent end and an electrode bolt pressure rail 2112 at the vertical end. The vertical end is used to press the electrode bolt, and the bent end is used to press the ground electrode bolt. The two outer sides of the ground electrode lug compatible channel 21 have guide rails 23, which have a limiting function and successively limit the electrode bolt 19 and the ground electrode lug 192. The side of the guide rail 23 is a compression spring push slide seat 22, which is used to push the compression spring located in the spring slot 4.
[0024] The socket main box 1 has two spring grooves 4 inside. The socket main box 1 has multiple panel latches 11 around its upper perimeter.
[0025] Figure 12 This is a diagram of the main panel 24 of the socket.
[0026] An electrode shaft 63 is installed below the sliding panel structure. The electrode shaft 63 is inserted into the mounting hole of the electrode 6. The electrode 6 includes an electrode spring bolt 61 and an electrode copper sheet 62.
[0027] 1. Waterproof Function: A safety pin (pole pin) is installed in the socket hole. When no plug is inserted, this pin presses against the sliding panel, conforming to the waterproof coating on the back of the panel to create a waterproof function. The top surface of the pole pin is curved to prevent the plug prongs from scratching and damaging the edge in contact with the waterproof coating.
[0028] 2. Safety Self-Locking Function: The safety pin (pole pin) located in the socket prevents the vertical pole pin pressure rail end face on the sliding panel from entering the pole pin cavity when no plug is inserted, thus locking the sliding panel and preventing it from moving up and down and receiving power. If a foreign object is inserted, the downward pressure length that can be opened cannot be estimated, achieving the self-locking purpose. Firstly, it ensures equidistant opening distance only when a standard (matching) plug is inserted; secondly, the self-locking cavities are a pair of independent chambers, so even if one foreign object is at the same height, it cannot guarantee that the other can be inserted at the same distance by feel; thirdly, when using two phases, it ensures that the three-phase grounding pole pin is pressed against its own socket, preventing water from entering. It can only be unlocked when a two-phase or three-phase standard (matching) plug is fully inserted.
[0029] 3. Isolation power-on function: The electrodes are separated from the socket by the electrode socket cavity. Even if a foreign object is inserted into the socket, it cannot contact the power source. Only when the standard (matching) plug is inserted and the sliding panel is pulled down can the copper contacts of the plug contact the electrodes to conduct electricity.
[0030] 4. Rotatable Electrodes: The L and N electrodes of the socket are rotatable. The electrode inlets open when pushed by the sliding panel, allowing the copper contacts of the plug to enter the energizing area. When the plug is pulled down and released, the electrodes engage to energize. When the plug is removed, the electrodes close under the action of the electrode torsion spring, preventing foreign objects from entering. This design also ensures easy insertion and removal of the plug without generating an electric arc.
[0031] 5. Sliding Sub-panel (Sliding Panel): This utility model features a sliding sub-panel below the main panel, which can slide up and down within the opening area of the main panel. Sliding requires the insertion of the connector plug. When the sub-panel is released from its energized position, two telescopic springs located in the socket box push the sliding panel upwards to return to its original position. At this time, the push shaft 181 on the sliding panel 18 moves to the right side of the electrode push plate (when the electrode is pushed to a vertical position), and simultaneously, the electrode torsion spring rotates and engages the copper contacts of the connector to energize it. When the connector is unplugged and the user stops using the device, the sliding panel locks itself back to its original position under the action of these two springs, and the electrode rotates to its limit and locks itself, preventing it from opening.
[0032] 6. Complementary and compatible functions: During use, when the plug enters the socket and presses against the pole until it is level with the corresponding bottom surface of the main box, the pressure rail on the electric (ground) pole on the sliding panel will pull down and press against the center of the pole to unlock and slide. In the design, the L and N pole pressure plates are vertical, while the ground pole is pressed by the bent pressure rail at the bottom of the pole pressure plate, which presses against the lugs protruding from both sides of the pole cavity and pushes it forward. When using two-phase power, the ground pole does not have the plug plate pressing down, and its protruding lugs are unobstructed and static in the upper cavity (ground pole chamber) of the hook, which does not affect the sliding panel from sliding down. The bent pressure rail only plays a role when using a three-phase plug.
[0033] Universal compatibility: This utility model ensures compatibility with existing junction boxes. The change in function will not affect its use; replacement simply requires removing the original socket and installing the new socket in the same way, without any other modifications. It is compatible with all existing domestic and international standard plugs, ensuring safety and functionality. It can also be installed as a power strip (or extension cord) for equivalent use.
[0034] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
