Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of plug and socket technology, and in particular to a pop-out plug. Background Technology

[0002] Existing technologies for automatic plug ejection from sockets either employ a plug-socket interaction mechanism, requiring modifications to both the socket and plug, or utilize electromagnets and springs to drive the plug ejection. The electromagnet generates a repulsive force through the socket, or the spring's potential energy releases the latch to separate the plug from the socket. Independently usable pop-out plugs primarily rely on spring force. A manual release mechanism releases the spring force, driving a pin or lever mechanism to separate the plug from the socket, mainly serving as an auxiliary tool for manual removal.

[0003] In the field of electric bicycle charging, current products that achieve automatic power-off primarily do so by designing a specific socket with power monitoring that connects to a charging station. The electric bicycle charger is then plugged into this socket, and when the power drops to a certain value, an internal relay in the socket disconnects the charger's power supply, thus achieving automatic power-off. The drawback is that the socket itself still retains standby power after automatic power-off. Even if this power is sufficiently low, the charging station will not immediately cut off power and stop billing. Due to differences in the design of various charging station systems, the duration of power-off and billing cessation varies. Therefore, while ensuring charging safety and preventing battery overcharging, it cannot immediately stop billing for the user, resulting in additional time and costs. The plug of this invention, with its automatic ejection mechanism, achieves immediate power-off and billing cessation. Utility Model Content

[0023] To better understand the technical solution of this utility model, the embodiments provided by this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] like Figure 1-3As shown, this embodiment provides a pop-out plug, comprising: a housing 1, wherein the housing 1 is provided with a plug 2 for connecting to a power source; a fixing member 3 is provided inside the housing 1, wherein the fixing member 3 is provided with a mounting groove 31; a top pin 4 is provided inside the mounting groove 31, wherein the top pin 4 is provided with a rack; a motor 5 is also provided inside the housing 1, wherein the output end of the motor 5 is connected to a gear 6, wherein the gear 6 meshes with the rack on the top pin 4; and a slot 7 is provided on the housing 1, wherein the end of the top pin 4 can extend out of the slot 7.

[0025] In this embodiment, the insert 2 on the housing 1 is used to insert into the socket to connect to the power supply. Specifically, as... Figure 1 and 3 As shown, a top pin 4 is provided on the fixing member 3 inside the housing 1. The rack on the top pin 4 meshes with the gear 6. The gear 6 is connected to the output end of the reduction motor 5. When the plug needs to be automatically ejected, the external control box powers the reduction motor 5. The reduction motor 5 rotates counterclockwise, driving the gear 6 to rotate. At the same time, the gear 6 drives the top pin 4 to be ejected from the slot 7 on the housing 1 (as shown). Figure 2 (As shown), this forces the plug to detach from the socket. Through this structure, the connection between the plug and socket is physically disconnected, preventing appliances from consuming power in standby mode and maximizing the isolation of the electrical connection between the plug and socket, thus achieving energy saving and safety.

[0026] When applied to outdoor electric bicycle charging stations, this invention not only prevents battery overcharging but also triggers the charging station system to immediately stop billing, allowing users to receive immediate notification and saving charging time and costs. Furthermore, the physical disconnection of the plug from the socket prevents property damage caused by accidents such as lightning strikes or rain short circuits.

[0027] Furthermore, the number of inserts 2 on the housing 1 is two (or three), and the slot 7 is disposed between the multiple inserts 2. In this embodiment, the slot 7 is disposed between the multiple inserts 2, so that when the top pin 4 is pushed out from the slot 7, the top pin 4 is located between the multiple inserts 2, which can better push the plug open from the socket. In other embodiments, it can also be disposed on the outside of the inserts 2, as long as it can push open the plug.

[0028] Based on the above embodiment, the fixing member 3 is further provided with a receiving cavity 32, and the motor 5 is disposed in the receiving cavity 32. The output end of the motor 5 extends from the receiving cavity 32 to the mounting groove 31 and is fixed with the gear 6. A baffle 8 is provided on the outside of the receiving cavity 32, and the baffle 8 is fixed to the fixing member 3 and covers the receiving cavity 32. The receiving cavity 32 is formed by the fixing member 3 and the baffle 8, which fixes the motor 5 inside and prevents the motor 5 from being displaced during the pop-out process.

[0029] Furthermore, a limiting element is provided on the lower side of the rack on the top pin 4, ensuring that the top pin 4 does not exceed the limit value when it is pushed out. Simultaneously, the design of the number of racks on the top pin 4 ensures that the gear 6 idles when the limit value is reached. Another limiting element in this embodiment is a limiting baffle 8. The limiting function of the limiting baffle 8 includes restricting the movement of the motor, restricting the gear from sliding out in the opposite direction of the motor, and restricting the gear from loosening its meshing with the rack on the top pin 4.

[0030] Furthermore, the end of the gear 6 is provided with a connector 61. The housing 1 is also provided with a knob 9, which is fixed to the connector 61. After the top pin 4 is pushed out, the top pin 4 can be manually retracted due to the power failure of the external control box. By rotating the knob 9 counterclockwise, the gear 6 and the reduction motor 5 are rotated, and the gear 6, in conjunction with the rack of the top pin 4, retracts the top pin 4.

[0031] In this embodiment, the housing 1 includes an upper housing 11 and a lower housing 12. The upper housing 11 covers the lower housing 12. The insert 2 and the fixing member 3 are both disposed on the lower housing 12, and the knob 9 is disposed on the side of the upper housing 11.

[0032] Furthermore, a wire tail protective sleeve 13 is provided at the junction of the lower housing 12 and the upper housing 11. The wire tail protective sleeve 13 is used to connect a multi-core cable, of which two wires (three wires when using three prongs) are connected to the prongs 2 of the lower housing of the plug, and the other two wires are connected to the geared motor 5. The other end of the multi-core cable is connected to an external control box.

[0033] The above provides a detailed description of a pop-out plug provided by the embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, based on the ideas of the embodiments of this utility model, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
