Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of socket technology, and in particular to a desktop socket with rotating lighting. Background Technology

[0002] With the intelligent development of modern office environments, desktop sockets, as integrated power and data interface terminals, play an important role in improving office space utilization efficiency and maintaining desktop tidiness. Existing desktop sockets are mainly divided into two categories: movable and concealed. Among them, movable desktop sockets are widely used due to their convenient installation and flexible use.

[0003] In the field of movable desktop socket technology, several mature solutions already exist. For example, Chinese utility model patent "A Desktop Socket," application number: CN202221538502.6, discloses a socket body for fixing to a desktop; the socket body is constructed in the shape of a frustum or hemisphere with a smaller upper diameter and a larger lower diameter, and the lower end of the socket body has a bottom surface that fits against the desktop; multiple power-gathering modules and / or data modules are embedded circumferentially on the side wall of the socket body; the data sockets on the power-gathering modules and / or data modules are tilted upwards. This desktop socket is frustum or hemisphere shaped, with tilted power-gathering modules and / or data modules arranged on it, allowing users to plug and unplug plugs or connectors in a tilted position, which is more effortless and convenient.

[0004] However, existing solutions primarily focus on the integration and optimization of power supply, data interfaces, and charging functions, paying insufficient attention to lighting assistance in office environments. In real-world office scenarios, users often require additional localized lighting to meet needs such as nighttime use, ambient lighting, or operation of specific equipment. While some users may configure a separate desk lamp, this occupies limited desktop space, and the power cord arrangement can easily lead to a cluttered desktop, contradicting the original intention of integrated desktop socket design. Currently, there are few products that combine lighting functions with the desktop socket itself, especially lacking lighting structures that allow for flexible adjustment of the lighting angle and range according to usage needs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this application is to provide a desktop socket with rotating lighting, which integrates a rotatable ring lamp holder around the socket body, making the lighting angle flexibly adjustable, the structure compact, and not interfering with the plugging and unplugging operation.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: a desktop socket with rotating lighting, including a base and a socket body. The socket body is generally cylindrical. The left and right sides of the socket body are connected to lamp holders through a pivot. The lamp holder is a ring-shaped structure and is arranged around the outer periphery of the socket body. The lamp holder can rotate around the pivot when subjected to force. The socket body is connected to the base through a vertically arranged connecting rod. The lamp holder is vertically arranged on the front side of the connecting rod.

[0007] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this application are as follows: First, the lamp holder is connected to the left and right sides of the socket body via a pivot and can rotate around the pivot under force. This structure allows the lamp holder to flip in a vertical plane, achieving a wide range of lighting angle adjustments to meet the directional lighting needs of different usage scenarios (such as nighttime use, ambient lighting, and equipment operation). The lamp holder is designed as a ring-shaped structure surrounding the outer circumference of the columnar socket body, allowing the light source to be evenly distributed along the circumference. Compared to single-sided or localized lighting, this provides a surround lighting effect without blind spots, effectively expanding the lighting coverage area.

[0008] Secondly, the lamp holder is designed to surround the socket body, achieving a high degree of structural integration. This avoids the problem of traditional external desk lamps occupying separate desktop space, aligning with the design principles of integrated and miniaturized desktop sockets. When the lamp holder is rotated to a vertical position, it allows for easy insertion and removal of the socket body, preventing the lamp from obstructing the power supply module and ensuring convenient plugging and unplugging of connectors or data terminals. This achieves dynamic coordination between lighting and socket functions. Furthermore, the rotation of the lamp holder will not interfere with the plug of any appliance after it has been inserted.

[0009] Finally, the lamp holder is vertically positioned on the front side of the connecting rod, creating a layered spatial arrangement between them. This allows both the lamp holder and the connecting rod to be vertically mounted on the socket body. This ensures that the lamp holder will not mechanically interfere with the connecting rod during rotation around the axis, guaranteeing smooth rotation and structural reliability. The socket body adopts a columnar structure, which naturally matches the geometric shape of the ring-shaped lamp holder surrounding it, facilitating concentric rotation of the lamp holder while maintaining a simple and symmetrical overall appearance.

[0010] In some embodiments of this application, the lamp holder is generally in the shape of a racetrack, the rotating shaft is connected to the long side of the lamp holder, the lamp holder includes an outer wall surface and an inner wall surface, the outer wall surface and the inner wall surface are connected, and the inner wall surface is the light-emitting surface.

[0011] The lamp holder is shaped like a racetrack with a pivot connecting the long side, expanding the effective lighting range while maintaining the ring-shaped lighting characteristics. The inner wall serves as the light-emitting surface, directing light directly towards the center of the socket body, providing soft and non-glaring illumination.

[0012] In some embodiments of this application, the outer wall surface of the lamp holder is an outwardly convex curved surface, the inner wall surface of the lamp holder is a trapezoidal structure, and the inner wall surface of the lamp holder is made of a light-transmitting material.

[0013] The convex curved surface of the outer wall makes the outer surface of the lamp holder smooth, while the trapezoidal structure of the inner wall allows control over the light emission angle, achieving either focused or diffused light effects. The inner wall, made of translucent material, ensures uniform light transmission, improving lighting quality.

[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the lamp holder is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the socket body, and a predetermined friction force is provided between the rotating shaft and the socket body, the friction force causing the lamp holder to connect to the socket body at any angle.

[0015] The lamp holder is fixed to the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is frictionally connected to the socket body. The lamp holder can be self-locked at any rotation angle by relying on the preset friction force, without the need for additional buckles or locking devices, which simplifies the structure and improves the ease of operation.

[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the base is a disc structure, and the bottom surface of the base has an annular surface that conforms to the desktop.

[0017] The disc structure provides isotropic support and strong anti-tipping ability; the bottom ring surface contacts the tabletop, which reduces the contact area while maintaining stable support, and can adapt to slightly uneven tabletops.

[0018] In some embodiments of this application, the cross-section of the connecting rod is racetrack-shaped, and the long side of the connecting rod is parallel to the socket body.

[0019] The connecting rod has a racetrack-shaped cross-section with its long side parallel to the socket body. This design reduces material thickness and visual volume while ensuring vertical support strength, resulting in a slimmer overall appearance.

[0020] In some embodiments of this application, the rear end face of the socket body is a plane, and the rear end face of the socket body is provided with at least two sets of sockets that match the electrical appliances.

[0021] The rear end is designed as a flat surface to facilitate the neat arrangement of at least two sets of sockets; by placing the socket sets on the rear end of the main body, separate from the front operation area, strong and weak current are separated, thus improving safety during use.

[0022] In some embodiments of this application, the front surface of the socket body is an outwardly convex curved surface, and the front surface of the socket body is provided with control buttons and multiple charging interfaces, including USB interfaces and Type-C interfaces.

[0023] The convex curved surface at the front is more aesthetically pleasing, and the control buttons and USB and Type-C interfaces are centrally located to meet the charging needs of various devices, improving interface compatibility and ease of operation.

[0024] In some embodiments of this application, a control device is provided inside the socket body. The control device is electrically connected to the charging interface, the socket group, and the lamp holder. A power cord is pulled out from the bottom of the rear end face of the socket body. The power cord connects the plug and the control device. The power cord is located on the rear side of the connecting rod.

[0025] The control device is integrated into the socket body, realizing integrated control of charging, power supply and lighting; the power cord is led out from the bottom of the rear face and located behind the connecting rod, forming a spatial separation from the lamp holder located on the front side, completely avoiding interference of the power cord with the rotation of the lamp holder.

[0026] Based on common knowledge in the field, the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. Attached Figure Description

[0030] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0032] A desktop socket with rotating lighting, as shown in Embodiment 1 Figures 1 to 3 As shown: The socket includes a base 1 and a socket body 2. The socket body 2 has a columnar structure, and the left and right sides of the socket body 2 are connected to lamp holders 4 via pivots 3. The lamp holders 4 are arranged around the socket body 2, and are highly integrated with the socket body 2 in structure, avoiding the problem of traditional external desk lamps occupying independent desktop space, which conforms to the design intention of integrated and miniaturized desktop sockets. When the lamp holder 4 is rotated to a vertical position, it can make way for the plugging and unplugging operation space of the socket body 2, preventing the lamp body from blocking the power supply module, ensuring the convenience of plugging and unplugging the plug 14 or data connector, and realizing dynamic coordination between lighting function and socket function. After the plug 14 of the appliance is inserted, the rotation of the lamp holder 4 will not interfere with the plug 14 of the appliance.

[0033] The lamp holder 4 is a ring-shaped structure that surrounds the outer circumference of the socket body 2. The lamp holder 4 can rotate around the pivot 3 under force, allowing it to flip within a vertical plane and achieve a wide range of lighting angle adjustments to meet the directional lighting needs of different usage scenarios (such as nighttime use, ambient lighting, and equipment operation). The ring-shaped design of the lamp holder 4, surrounding the columnar socket body 2, allows the light source to be evenly distributed along the circumference. Compared to single-sided or localized lighting, this provides a surround lighting effect without blind spots, effectively expanding the lighting coverage area.

[0034] The socket body 2 is connected to the base 1 via a vertically arranged connecting rod 5, and the lamp holder 4 is vertically arranged in front of the connecting rod 5. This creates a front-to-back spatial layer, allowing both the lamp holder 4 and the connecting rod 5 to be vertically positioned at the socket body 2. This ensures that the lamp holder 4 will not mechanically interfere with the connecting rod 5 during rotation around the pivot 3, guaranteeing smooth rotation and structural reliability. The socket body 2 adopts a columnar structure, which naturally matches the geometric shape of the annular lamp holder 4 surrounding it, facilitating concentric rotation of the lamp holder 4 while maintaining a simple and symmetrical overall appearance.

[0035] Example 2, as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the lamp holder 4 has a racetrack-shaped structure. The rotating shaft 3 is connected to the long side of the lamp holder 4. The lamp holder 4 includes an outer wall surface 41 and an inner wall surface 42, which are connected. The inner wall surface 42 is the light-emitting surface. The racetrack-shaped design of the lamp holder 4 and the connection of the rotating shaft 3 to the long side expand the effective lighting range while maintaining the annular lighting characteristics. The inner wall surface 42, as the light-emitting surface, allows the light to shine directly towards the center area of ​​the socket body 2, providing soft and non-glaring illumination.

[0036] The outer wall surface 41 of the lamp holder 4 is an outwardly convex curved surface, and the inner wall surface 42 of the lamp holder 4 has a trapezoidal structure. The inner wall surface 42 of the lamp holder 4 is made of a light-transmitting material. The outwardly convex curved surface of the outer wall surface 41 makes the outer surface of the lamp holder 4 smooth, and the trapezoidal structure of the inner wall surface 42 can control the light emission angle to achieve a focusing or diffused light effect. The inner wall surface 42 made of light-transmitting material ensures uniform light transmission and improves lighting quality.

[0037] The lamp holder 4 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 3, and the rotating shaft 3 is rotatably connected to the socket body 2. A predetermined friction force is provided between the rotating shaft 3 and the socket body 2, which allows the lamp holder 4 to connect to the socket body 2 at any angle. The lamp holder 4 is fixed to the rotating shaft 3, and the rotating shaft 3 is frictionally connected to the socket body 2. Relying on the preset friction force, the lamp holder 4 can self-lock at any rotation angle without the need for additional clips or locking devices, simplifying the structure and improving ease of operation.

[0038] The base 1 has a disc structure, and its bottom surface has an annular surface that conforms to the tabletop. The disc structure provides isotropic support and has strong anti-tipping ability; the annular surface of the bottom surface contacts the tabletop, which reduces the contact area while maintaining stable support, and can adapt to slight unevenness of the tabletop.

[0039] The connecting rod 5 has a racetrack-shaped cross-section, with its long side parallel to the socket body 2. This racetrack-shaped cross-section and parallel long side of the connecting rod 5 reduce material thickness and visual bulk while maintaining vertical support strength, resulting in a slimmer overall appearance.

[0040] The rear end face of the socket body 2 is flat, and at least two sets of socket groups 10 matching the electrical appliances are provided on the rear end face. Making the rear end face flat facilitates the neat arrangement of at least two sets of socket groups 10; placing the socket groups 10 on the rear end face of the body separates them from the front operation area, realizes the separation of strong and weak current, and improves the safety of use.

[0041] The front surface of the socket body 2 is a convex curved surface. The front surface of the socket body 2 is provided with a control button 11 and multiple charging ports 12, including USB ports and Type-C ports. The convex curved surface of the front is more aesthetically pleasing, and the centralized arrangement of the control button 11 and USB and Type-C ports meets the charging needs of various devices, improving interface compatibility and ease of operation.

[0042] The socket body 2 is equipped with a control device, which is electrically connected to the charging interface 12, the socket group 10, and the lamp holder 4. A power cord 13 extends from the bottom of the rear end face of the socket body 2, connecting the plug 14 to the control device. The power cord 13 is located behind the connecting rod 5. The control device is integrated into the socket body 2, realizing integrated control of charging, power supply, and lighting. The power cord 13 extends from the bottom of the rear end face and is located behind the connecting rod 5, forming a spatial separation from the lamp holder 4 located on the front side, completely avoiding interference of the power cord 13 with the rotation of the lamp holder 4.

[0043] The rest of the contents of Example 2 are the same as those of Example 1.

[0044] The present application has been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of the present application. The descriptions of the embodiments above are only for the purpose of helping to understand the present application and its core ideas. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make several improvements and modifications to the present application without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
