Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to dust protection for electrical plugs. [Background technology]
[0002] Dust that accumulates in the gap between an electrical plug and an outlet can cause a fire.
[0003] One way to deal with this is to insert a plug safety cover between the plug and the socket.
[0004] Conventional plug safety covers have a set shape and size, and if they do not match, they will not fit properly.
[0005] AC adapters in particular are large and have an indeterminate shape.
[0006] Therefore, the present invention is a free-type plug safety cover designed to be used with any plug and AC adapter. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0007] The problem that the company is trying to solve is that conventional plug safety covers are manufactured to fit different shapes and sizes, and if the design does not fit, they may not be usable.
[0008] [Means for solving the problem]
[0009] The main feature of the present invention is that it is a free type that can be adapted to all plugs and AC adapters. [Effects of the Invention]
[0010] The present invention has the advantage of being compatible with plugs and AC adapters of shapes and sizes that conventional plug safety covers cannot fit, which has the effect of reducing the risk of fire that has been ignored until now. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0011] [Figure 1] This is a free-type plug safety cover with one side of the hole open. [Figure 2] This is a derivative of the present invention and has a longer hole. [Figure 3] This is an AC adapter fitted with a free-type plug safety cover. (Example 3) Example 1
[0012] Place it in the gap between the plug and the outlet. [Explanation of symbols]
[0013] 1 A convex part that acts as an umbrella to prevent dust from entering. 2 One side of the hole is open so that it is not restricted by the distance between the insertion pin and the outer edge of the plug. 3 The hole is long so that it is not restricted by the distance between the insertion pin and the outer edge of the plug. 4 AC adapter example.
Claims
1. There is a protrusion on top that acts as an umbrella to prevent dust from entering, and the shape does not interfere with the left or right sides of the plug.
2. One side of the hole is open so that it is not restricted by the distance between the insertion pin and the outer edge of the plug, or the hole is long.
