Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a power strip fixing method capable of firmly clamping a power strip.

Background Art

[0002] For convenient use on a desktop, in addition to placing the power strip directly on the desktop, a fixing device may be combined with the power strip to secure it to the table top, so as to prevent the power strip from falling due to collision or to facilitate plugging and unplugging of plugs of electric devices.

[0003] The "Rotatable Table Clamp Type Multi-Tap" described in Patent Document 1 has a power strip main body fixed to the table top. A clamp base body and a clamp block are used to jointly clamp the table top, and a support frame is further used to fix the power strip main body. Among them, the power strip main body and the support frame need to be fixed with bolts and nuts, and the support frame and the clamp base body also need to be connected to each other via a separate rotating shaft. That is, the aforementioned support frame needs to fix the power strip main body with bolts and nuts and further fix it to the clamp base body via the rotating shaft, which results in excessively complicated and laborious fixing operations.

[0004] The "Integrated Power Strip" described in Patent Document 2 uses a fixing frame to clamp the table top. The power strip and the V-shaped plate of the fixing frame are fixed with two screws, wherein the fixing hole of the power strip is arranged on the lower shell, and the lower shell is assembled and fixed with the top cover and the side cover. Such a fixing method makes it difficult to remove the power strip from the V-shaped plate. When the power strip is detached from the V-shaped plate of the fixing frame, the V-shaped plate tends to attach to the power strip, which is laborious when placing the power strip.

[0005] The "fixing structural member for extension cord base (additional 1)" described in Patent Document 3 uses a plate pivotally attached to the power strip body to form a clip, and this clip is used to fix the power strip to the table top. In the above-described fixed structural member, the power strip and the clip are integrated, and it is not possible to remove the clip and use it as a regular power strip.

[0007] In order to overcome the technical problems described above, the object of the present invention is to provide a method for fixing a power strip that can securely and firmly fix the power strip and allows for easy removal of the power strip. [Means for solving the problem]

[0008] The present invention provides a method for fixing a power strip, comprising the steps of: installing at least one first coupling member on the power strip, wherein each of the first coupling members has a coupling thickness; installing at least one detachable synchronous clamp, wherein the detachable synchronous clamp comprises a fixing unit, the fixing unit comprising a first plate, a connecting member, and a second plate, wherein the first plate, the connecting member, and the second plate form a first clamping space, and the first plate and the second plate jointly provide a clamping force; fixing a second coupling member to the first plate, and fixing a regulating member to the second coupling member; and the detachable synchronous clamp comprises a movable spacer, The method includes the steps of: installing a movable spacer on the first plate and making the first plate movable relative to the movable spacer in the direction in which the clamping force acts, thereby forming a second clamping space between the movable spacer and the restricting member; removably connecting the second connecting member to the first connecting member and positioning the connecting thickness in the second clamping space; and using the clamping force to clamp the support member within the first clamping space, the clamping force causing the first plate to move relative to the movable spacer, reducing the second clamping space and synchronously clamping the connecting thickness, thereby fixing the power strip to the support member.

[0009] Furthermore, a tightening rod is screwed into the second plate of the fixing unit, and the tightening rod has an operating end and a compression end, the operating end is positioned outside the first clamping space and the compression end is positioned inside the first clamping space, and by rotating the tightening rod, the compression end is moved closer to or further away from the second plate, thereby increasing or decreasing the clamping force.

[0010] Furthermore, the first plate, the connecting member, and the second plate are provided as a C-shaped clip formed integrally.

[0011] Furthermore, the first coupling member is an engagement groove formed in the housing of the power strip, the engagement groove includes an insertion opening and a sliding section, the housing has the coupling thickness in the sliding section, the second coupling member is an upright tenon projection, the head of the tenon projection forms the restricting member, the head is used for entry from the insertion opening or disengagement from the engagement groove, and the head is restricted so as not to disengage from the engagement groove in the sliding section.

[0012] Furthermore, the movable spacer includes an outer member and an inner member, the outer member being positioned outside the first clamping space and the inner member being positioned inside the first clamping space, the outer member and the regulating member forming the second clamping space, and the inner member being used to contact the support member.

[0013] Furthermore, the first plate and the second plate are arranged to intersect in a scissor-like manner, the connecting member is used to pivotally connect the first plate and the second plate, and an elastic member is also installed, which provides the clamping force to the first plate and the second plate.

[0014] Furthermore, the first plate is extended vertically to provide a first fitting portion, the second plate is extended vertically to provide a second fitting portion, the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion are fitted together to form the connecting member, and a tension spring is installed between the first fitting portion and the second fitting portion to provide the clamping force to the first plate and the second plate.

[0015] Furthermore, the power strip is elongated in a vertical direction, with a plurality of the first connecting members distributed along the vertical direction, and two or more of the fixing units are connected to different first connecting members via the second connecting members, thereby fixing the power strip to the support member. [Effects of the Invention]

[0016] According to the present invention, the following effects can be achieved.

[0017] 1. A movable spacer is coupled to the first plate of the fixing unit of the detachable synchronous clamp, and a movement section is pre-secured in the movable space of the movable spacer. When the power tap is fixed to a support member such as a top plate, the first plate is synchronously moved within the movable space, which can eliminate the mutual gap after the power tap is coupled to the detachable synchronous clamp. Not only can the top plate be firmly clamped by the detachable synchronous clamp, but also the power tap can be firmly clamped by the detachable synchronous clamp at the same time.

[0018] 2. When the power tap is jointly fixed on the top plate by two or more detachable synchronous clamps in the vertical direction, the power tap can be more stable and prevented from being displaced by external force.

[0019] 3. The connection between the detachable synchronous clamp and the power tap is a movable connection. When a plurality of first coupling members (i.e., engagement grooves) are provided on the power tap, any detachable synchronous clamp can be coupled to the optimal position of the engagement groove on the power tap according to the requirements of the installation environment, so that the optimal fixing effect can be obtained.

[0020] 4. When it is necessary to remove the power tap from a support member such as a top plate and remove the detachable synchronous clamp from the power tap (for example, when changing the position where the detachable synchronous clamp is coupled to the power tap, or when using the power tap in a general usage manner), by loosening the clamping force that the top plate receives in the first clamping space (for example, turning the tightening rod to loosen the pressing end from the top plate), the second clamping space clamping the power tap can be synchronously loosened. After that, the power tap is removed from the support member such as the top plate, and then the second coupling member (i.e., tenon protrusion) of the detachable synchronous clamp is operated in the direction opposite to the coupling direction of the first coupling member (i.e., engagement groove) of the power tap, so that the detachable synchronous clamp can be easily removed without using a tool.

[Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0022] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. It goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below.

[0023] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, in this embodiment, the power strip 1 is fixed using two detachable synchronous clamps 2.

[0024] The power strip 1 includes a plurality of AC power outlets and / or DC power outlets (not shown) and a plurality of first coupling members arranged apart from each other, in this embodiment the first coupling members are engagement grooves 11. The power strip 1 is elongated vertically, extending in the vertical direction D, and multiple AC power outlets and / or DC power outlets are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction D, and each first coupling member (engagement groove 11) is also arranged at intervals along the vertical direction D.

[0025] Each detachable synchronous clamp 2 is equipped with a fixing unit and a movable spacer 4. In this embodiment, the fixing unit includes an opening body 21 and a tightening rod 22. The opening body 21 comprises a first plate 211, a second plate 212, and a connecting member that connects the first plate 211 and the second plate 212. In this embodiment, the connecting member is a side plate 213 that integrally connects the first plate 211 and the second plate 212, and the fixing unit takes the form of an integrally molded C-shaped clip. A second connecting member is placed on the first plate 211. In this embodiment, the second connecting member is a tenon projection corresponding to the engagement groove 11, and the second connecting member (tenon projection 24) corresponds to the first connecting member (engagement groove 11), and they can be connected to and separated from each other. Furthermore, a first clamping space 23 is formed, surrounded by the first plate 211, the second plate 212, and the side plate 213.

[0026] The tightening rod 22 is inserted into the first clamping space 23 from the outside of the second plate 212. Specifically, the tightening rod 22 has an operating end 221 and a compression end 222, the compression end 222 is located inside the first clamping space 23, a threaded portion 223 is connected between the operating end 221 and the compression end 222, and the threaded portion 223 is screwed into the second plate 212 of the opening body 21. The movable spacer 4 is connected to the first plate 211.

[0027] Each detachable synchronous clamp 2 is fixed to the power strip 1 at different positions in the vertical direction D by connecting its second connecting member (tenon projection 24) to a different first connecting member (engagement groove 11).

[0028] As shown in Figures 1, 3 to 5, the engagement groove 11 of the power strip 1 comprises an insertion opening 111 and a sliding section 112 connected to the insertion opening 111. The tenon projection 24 of the detachable synchronous clamp 2 has a head 241 and a neck 242, and the maximum diameter of the head 241 is smaller than the diameter of the insertion opening 111, but larger than the width of the sliding section 112. The head portion 241 is inserted into the engagement groove 11 from the insertion opening 111, and the neck portion 242 slides along the sliding section 112, restricting the head portion 241 from disengaging from the engagement groove 11 within the sliding section 112, so that the detachable synchronous clamp 2 is securely fixed onto the power strip 1.

[0029] As shown in Figures 6 to 9, the detachable synchronous clamp 2 is assembled to the periphery of the top plate 3 from the side, the periphery of the top plate 3 is moved into the first clamping space 23 of the opening body 21, the periphery surface of the top plate 3 is brought into contact with the side plate 213 of the opening body 21, the operating end 221 of the tightening rod 22 is rotated to screw the threaded portion 223 into the first clamping space 23 along the axial direction P, the compression end 222 is pressed against the lower surface of the top plate 3, and a clamping force is provided between the first plate 211 and the second plate 212 along the axial direction P, thereby clamping the top plate 3 and fixing the power strip 1 on the top plate 3 with the detachable synchronous clamp 2.

[0030] The movable spacer 4 includes an outer member and an inner member, the outer member being positioned outside the first clamping space 23 and the inner member being positioned inside the first clamping space 23. In this embodiment, the outer member is the first spacer 41 and the inner member is the second spacer 42. A movable space 43 is formed by the first spacer 41 and the second spacer 42, and the movable space 43 has a movable width D1 between the first spacer 41 and the second spacer 42. The first plate 211 is inserted into the movable space 43, and the movable spacer 4 is attached to the first plate 211. The width of the movable width D1 is greater than the thickness T of the first plate 211, and the first plate 211 has a movable section D2 along the axial direction P within the movable space 43. The second connecting member (tenon projection 24) includes a regulating member. In this embodiment, the regulating member is the head 241 of the tenon projection 24, and a second clamping space 25 is defined between the first spacer 41 and the regulating member (head 241 of the tenon projection 24).

[0031] More specifically, the power strip 1 comprises a housing 10, an engagement groove 11 formed in the housing 10, and a bonding thickness formed by the clamped portion 101 around the sliding section 112 of the housing 10. When the detachable synchronous clamp 2 is assembled to the power strip 1, first the tenon projection 24 is inserted into the engagement groove 11, a gap D3 is formed between the head 241 of the tenon projection 24 and the clamped portion 101, and / or a gap D4 is formed between the clamped portion 101 and the first spacer 41.

[0032] When fixing the power strip 1 to the top plate 3, the operating end 221 of the tightening rod 22 is rotated to continuously screw the threaded portion 223 into the first clamping space 23. When the top plate 3 is firmly clamped by this clamping force, the first plate 211 simultaneously receives the reaction force of the top plate 3 and moves synchronously toward the top plate within the movable space 43, reducing the second clamping space 25 and eliminating the gaps D3 and D4. At this time, the compressing end 222 of the detachable synchronous clamp 2 and the second spacer 42 firmly grip the top plate 3, and the head 241 of the tenon projection 24 tightly adheres to the clamped portion 101, while the clamped portion 101 is tightly in contact with the first spacer 41. As a result, the clamped portion 101 is also tightly clamped in the second clamping space 25 by the head 241 of the tenon projection 24 and the first spacer 41 in synchronous motion, and the power strip 1 can be firmly fixed to the top plate 3.

[0033] As shown in Figure 10, two or more detachable synchronous clamps 2 positioned vertically D secure the power strip 1 to the top plate 3, thereby making the power strip 1 more stable and preventing it from shifting position due to external forces.

[0034] When it is necessary to remove the power strip 1 from the top plate 3 and the detachable synchronous clamp 2 from the power strip 1, the second clamping space 25, which tightly clamps the power strip 1 in a synchronous manner, can be released by simply rotating the tightening rod 22 to loosen the compression end 222 located in the first clamping space 23 from the top plate 3. After removing the power strip 1 from the top plate 3, the detachable synchronous clamp 2 can be easily removed without the use of tools by operating the tenon projection 24 along the opposite direction to the coupling direction of the engagement groove 11.

[0035] In Embodiment 2 shown in Figure 11, the fixing unit of the detachable synchronous clamp 2A includes a first plate 211A and a second plate 212A. The first plate 211A has a vertically extended first fitting portion 2111A, and the second plate 212A has a vertically extended second fitting portion 2121A, and the first fitting portion 2111A and the second fitting portion 2121A are fitted together to form the connecting member. Furthermore, a tension spring 213A is installed between the first fitting portion 2111A and the second fitting portion 2121A, and when the detachable synchronous clamp 2A clamps a support member (e.g., top plate 3), the tension spring 213A provides the clamping force. The rest of the structure is the same as in Example 1.

[0036] In Embodiment 3 shown in Figure 12, the fixing unit of the detachable synchronous clamp 2B includes a first plate 211B and a second plate 212B. The first plate 211B and the second plate 212B are arranged to intersect in a scissor-like manner, and the connecting member is used to pivotally connect the first plate 211B and the second plate 212B. Furthermore, an elastic member 213B is installed between the first plate 211B and the second plate 212B, and the elastic member 213B provides the clamping force when the detachable synchronous clamp 2B clamps a support member (e.g., the top plate 3). The rest of the structure is the same as in Examples 1 and 2.

[0037] As shown in Figure 13, in Embodiment 4, the first spacer 41 of the movable spacer 4 is provided with a fitting groove 411, and the second spacer 42 is provided with a fitting piece 421. The movable spacer 4 is formed by fitting the fitting piece 421 into the fitting groove 411 to connect the first spacer 41 and the second spacer 42.

[0038] As shown in Figure 14, in Embodiment 5, the movable spacer 4A includes a first spacer 41A and a second spacer 42A, and the first spacer 41A and the second spacer 42A are integrally molded.

[0039] In Embodiment 6 shown in Figure 15, the movable spacer 4B includes a first spacer 41B and a second spacer 42B. A first engaging claw 411B is provided on the periphery of the first spacer 41B, and a second engaging claw 421B is provided on the periphery of the second spacer 42B. The movable spacer 4B is formed by engaging the first engaging claw 411B with the second engaging claw 421B to connect the first spacer 41B and the second spacer 42B.

[0040] As shown in Figures 16 and 17, a through hole 413B is provided in the first spacer 41B of the movable spacer 4B, and multiple positioning columns 412B are installed around the periphery of the through hole 413B. When multiple positioning holes 2111 are installed in the first plate 211 and the movable spacer 4B is attached to the first plate 211, the tenon projection 24 can be inserted through the through hole 413B and the positioning column 412B can be inserted through the positioning hole 2111. As shown in Figures 17 to 19, when the top plate 3 is tightly clamped with the detachable synchronous clamp 2, the positioning column 412B guides the first plate 211 and the movable spacer 4B, allowing them to move relative to each other while maintaining them in the axial direction P, thereby tightly clamping the power strip 1 with the detachable synchronous clamp 2 in a synchronized manner.

[0041] In Embodiment 7 shown in Figures 20 and 21, the movable spacer 4C is flat, and the positioning column 41C is installed on the movable spacer 4C. When the movable spacer 4C is connected to the first plate 211, the positioning column 41C is inserted through the positioning hole 2111 and comes into contact with the top plate 3. As shown in Figures 21 to 23, when the top plate 3 is tightly clamped with the detachable synchronous clamp 2, the positioning column 41C guides the first plate 211 and the movable spacer 4C, keeping them in the axial direction P while moving relative to each other, thereby allowing the power strip 1 to be tightly clamped with the detachable synchronous clamp 2 in a synchronized manner.

[0042] In Embodiment 8 shown in Figures 24 and 25, the movable spacer 4D includes a first spacer 41D and a second spacer 42D. The first spacer 41D and the second spacer 42D are flat plates, a positioning column 411D is installed on the first spacer 41D, and a positioning groove 421D is installed on the second spacer 42D. When the movable spacer 4D is connected to the first plate 211, the positioning column 411D is inserted through the positioning hole 2111 and into the positioning groove 421D. This makes it easier to assemble and connect the first spacer 41D and the second spacer 42D onto the first plate 211 from opposite sides of the first plate 211. As shown in Figures 25 to 27, when the top plate 3 is tightly clamped with the detachable synchronous clamp 2, the positioning column 411D guides the first plate 211 and the movable spacer 4D, keeping them in the axial direction P while moving relative to each other, thereby allowing the power strip 1 to be tightly clamped with the detachable synchronous clamp 2 in a synchronized manner.
