Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of socket protection door technology, and in particular to a socket protection door drive mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] A socket is an electrical device that connects appliances to a power source, providing a safe power supply interface for appliances. It is an indispensable electrical accessory in daily life and industrial settings. It typically consists of a casing, internal conductive terminals, and wiring terminals. The casing is usually made of insulating material to prevent electric shock; the conductive terminals are responsible for conducting current and are matched with the metal contacts of the plug.

[0003] The socket safety door drive mechanism is the core component that controls the opening and closing of the safety door. It is located between the socket hole and the socket sleeve and is mainly composed of a safety door component, a flexible component, and a transmission structure. When there is no plug, the flexible component drives the safety door to block the socket hole to prevent electric shock. When the plug is inserted, the plug pins press against the drive surface, and the safety door is moved and unlocked through rotation or gear meshing.

[0004] Traditional socket safety door drive mechanisms have poor stability. After a period of use, plugs may get stuck when inserted into the socket, affecting the smoothness of plug insertion.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a socket protection door drive mechanism to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] This utility model provides a socket protection door drive mechanism, which solves the problem of unstable traditional socket protection door drive mechanisms that are prone to jamming after prolonged use, affecting the smoothness of plugging and unplugging.

[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the socket protection door drive mechanism provided by this utility model includes: a socket housing;

[0008] The L-pole socket is installed at the bottom of the inner wall of the socket housing. The bottom of the inner wall of the socket housing is also equipped with an N-pole socket and an E-pole socket. Multiple base bodies are installed on the top of the L-pole socket, N-pole socket and E-pole socket. Multiple ribs are provided on the top of each base body. A baffle is installed on the top of the base body. Two limit brackets are installed on the top of the base body. The interior of the two limit brackets is slidably connected to a first protective door and a second protective door through sliding bolts. The top of the socket housing is provided with a socket opening.

[0009] Multiple mounting brackets are mounted on the top of the base body, and a return torsion spring is mounted on the outer surface of each mounting bracket. A top cover is mounted on the top of the base body.

[0010] The top of the cover contacts the top of the inner wall of the socket housing. The upper mechanism of the socket body is the protective door assembly, and the lower half of the socket body serves as the support component for the socket current-carrying assembly. The socket body and the socket current-carrying assembly are arranged between the upper and lower housings. The housing is made of flame-retardant and insulating plastic material, meeting the corresponding electrical performance requirements. The product draws power by inserting the plug into the socket body. During vertical insertion, the plug pin first contacts the protective door. In the first case, when the force on the inclined surface of the protective door is balanced, and the insertion force of the pin is greater than the sum of the guiding friction force of the inclined surface of the protective door and the deformation force on one side of the return torsion spring, the protective door will slide to the right and open, thus completing the action of inserting the pin into the product. The current-carrying component socket below the protective door opens due to the downward force of the pin, coupling with the pin and generating a certain contact pressure, thereby achieving stable power supply. When the plug is pulled out, the protective door resets due to the deformation force of the reset torsion spring. In the second case, if the force on the inclined surface of the protective door is uneven, the protective door will tilt to one side using the bottom arc surface as a fulcrum for left and right movement, thus interfering with the raised ribs on the surface of the socket and preventing sliding, achieving the purpose of single-pole anti-insertion. In the product, a single torsion spring always provides a continuous leftward pushing force to both the two-pole and three-pole protective doors. For either type of protective door to open, the pin on the plug must simultaneously apply force to one of the protective doors. The force is vertically downward, and both protective doors open to the right. In the design, the force of the unilateral deformation of the return torsion spring is always greater than the force of the protective door's rocker-like swing when a single pole is inserted, thus ensuring the unilateral anti-insertion capability is always achievable. In the product, a single return torsion spring continuously provides a leftward push to both protective doors. For either protective door to open, the pins on the plug must simultaneously apply a vertically downward force to one of the protective doors. Both protective doors open to the right. In the design, the force of the unilateral deformation of the return torsion spring is always greater than the force of the protective door's rocker-like swing when a single pole is inserted, thus ensuring the unilateral anti-insertion capability is always achievable. The two pins are of equal length. When the two inclined surfaces of the safety door are subjected to balanced forces by the latch, and the insertion force is greater than the sum of the sliding friction force of the safety door and the deformation force of the torsion spring, the safety door moves horizontally to the right. At the same time, the cantilever of the reset torsion spring opens, and the safety door opens. When the plug is inserted and the latch is pulled out, the safety door shifts to the left due to the rebound force of the cantilever of the reset torsion spring, and the safety door completes its reset. When the latch length is different or it is inserted crookedly, the safety door tilts left and right along the rib at the bottom of the safety door as a fulcrum. If force is applied downward, the tilted safety door is blocked by the rib on the seat body and cannot slide, thus achieving the function of single-pole anti-insertion. The function of the rib is to block.
