Trigger housing The subject of the invention is module (31); 5 - At least one suitable base (311) for attaching to a lower body (2), - A thruster assembly (4) extending from the base (311) to an upper body (10) will approach an upper body (10) or from the aforementioned upper body (10) at least two that define a suitable path for it to move away guide (312), 10 - Increasing structural integrity, the thrust unit (4) will approach the upper body (10) or a suitable way for it to move away from the upper body (10) at least one column defining the path (313), - To limit the movement of a locking device (6) in at least one direction. at least one limiting factor (314), 15 - A locking spring (7) on the aforementioned locking spring (6) (6) a force that will direct to a predetermined location a spring support (315) for positioning it in such a way that it can be applied, - At least one locking axis defining a rotation axis for the locking (6) (316) includes. 20 The subject module (31) of the invention will approach the upper body (10) of the thruster assembly (4) or the upper the most suitable way to move away from the body (10) It has at least one column (313). Module (31) is also the most of a locker (6). at least one restraint (314) to limit its movement in at least one direction, a 25 locking spring (7) on the aforementioned locking (6) locking (6) more in a way that it can apply a force to direct it to a predetermined position a spring support (315) for positioning and a rotation for the locker (6) It includes at least one locking axis (316) that defines the axis. Thus the same module (31) is placed on both a locker (6) and a column (313) It can be used with a locking wire. 125.03 Module (31) can also be integral with a sub-body (2). The module sequence (3) of the invention has at least two modules (31). The module sequence (3) is a It can also be integral with the lower body (2). 5 In an application of the invention, the module array (3) consists of at least two of the modules (31). located between them and enabling these modules (31) to be easily separated from each other It contains at least one breaking groove (32). In this way, the module array (3) contains more than one It can be produced to have module (31) and thus, the socket to be produced will have 10 (1) the number of modules needed according to the number of eyes it has (31), easily It can be separated from the module array (3) by breaking. For example, to produce a triple socket When requested, three modules (31) can be separated from the module array (3). A thruster (4) is connected to each module (31) of the module array (3). The thruster (4) has 15 defined by guide (312) and column (313), guide (312) and column (313) It is positioned so that it can move on the road. The pusher (4) is the guide. (312) to pass through at least one guide slot (41) and column (313) It has at least one column slot (43) for it to pass through. Guides (312) and The column (313) is passed through the relevant slots (41, 43) to the pusher (4) module (31) 20 In this case, the pusher (4) is placed by the guide (312) and column (313). It can move along the defined path. The pusher (4) is the insertion of a plug. It has at least one corresponding pin (42) that is pushed through the pins of the plug during the process. Each module (31) also has a pusher (4) fixed in the position where the plug is fully inserted. to hold and allow the user to release it when requested At least one adapted locking device is attached. The locking device, If the user plugs a plug into the socket (1), pusher (4) to apply force to the plug. It secures it in such a way that it will not apply. In other words, when the plug is fully inserted The locking device allows the pusher (4) to move towards the upper body (10) 30 125.03 6 It prevents the user from unplugging the plug from the socket (1). triggering and thus releasing the thruster (4). In one application of the invention, the locking mechanism is a locking wire. In this application... column (313), a lower stable position, an upper stable position and 5 for the locking wire. A track (3131) is required for the locking wire to move between these two stable positions. In this application, when the user plugs the plug into the socket (1), the locking wire mentioned It is fixed in a stable position. The user removes the plug from the socket (1). By applying force to the plug when desired, the locking wire will deform. It removes it from its position. When the user stops applying force to the plug, the pusher (4) 10 It pushes the plug upwards. The uppermost position of the pusher (4) is the locking position. This is the stable upper position of the wire. This column and locking wire structure, for example, in ballast It has a structure similar to the snap-fastener mechanism of pens. In another application of the invention, the locking device is a locker (6). 15 The locking mechanism (6) has at least one tongue (61) to secure the pusher (4) in a lower position. The tongue (61) will approach the fuselage (2) from the mentioned lower position of the thruster (4) a locked position that prevents movement and an open position that allows this movement. It can move between locations. 20 The tongue (61) contacts the pusher (4) during its upward-downward movement This section is sloped in such a way as to not hinder this movement. Below this sloping section, a recess (611) into which at least part of the thruster (4) can fit This recess (611) connects the lower ends of the pin counterparts (42) of the pusher (4) 25 It is suitable for insertion into at least part of a body. This In this way, the range of motion required for the thruster (4) to work is reduced. The invention socket (1) thus allows for the use of sockets in a confined space, such as wall sockets. It can also be easily used in places that have this feature. 125.03 7 The locker (6) has at least one axis suitable for connecting to the locker axis (316). It includes the housing (64). Here, the locking axis (316) and the axis housing (64) It can be in a male-female form. For example, a strut of the locking axis (316). In this case, the axis housing (64) is a hole through which this perpendicular can pass. They can be in this form. Either one can be male and the other female. 5 However, the locker (6) is attached to the locking axis (316) by means of a screw. because it can ensure the locking axis (316) male, axis housing (64) The form in which it is female is particularly preferred. This is to the locking axis (316) a screw which is connected and has a section wider than the inner diameter of the axis housing (64) by way of preventing the locker (6) from separating from the module (31) 10 It provides. The inner diameter of the aforementioned screw's axle housing (64) the wider section, also secured with an external part such as a washer or washer. can be created. The locking mechanism (6) requires a force to be applied to it via a trigger (8) and 15 As a result of this applied force, the locking axis (316) rotates around its axis. It has at least one tail (63) that provides a trigger (8) on the tail (63). When a force is applied through the locking (6) pusher (4) from the locking (6) It makes a rotational movement in such a way that it will be released. The locking mechanism (6) also triggers (8) When the force applied by the locker (6) is removed, the previously determined 20 suitable for connecting a locking spring (7) that enables it to return to a position. has at least one ear (62). While the pusher (4) moves from top to bottom, the tongue (61) moves the pusher (4). It pushes towards an open position that it does not obstruct. The pusher (4) tongue (61) is inclined 25 When the tongue (61) passes the part and reaches the indentation (611), the locking spring (7) applies As a result of the force, the thruster (4) will enter the recess (611) towards the thruster (4). It is moving. In this case, the pusher (4) cannot move upwards. 125.03 8 While the pusher (4) is locked by means of the locker (6), the tongue (61) is in the open position. When brought in, the pusher (4) moves toward the upper body (2) and thus the pins And therefore it pushes the plug. This allows the plug to be removed. At least one module (31), at least one thruster (4) connected to this module, at least one thruster spring 5 (5) is called a structural module whole that includes at least one interlocking device. If the locking mechanism is a locking wire, the entire module must have at least one module (31), at least one thruster (4) connected to this module, at least one thruster spring (5) and at least It includes a locking wire. The locking device is a locker (6). In this case, the module as a whole consists of at least one module (31), at least one thruster connected to this module 10 (4), at least one push spring (5), at least one locking spring (6) and at least one locking spring (7) It includes. The module sequence (3) which has such module sets is the module sequence It is referred to as the whole. In the preferred application of the invention, the module as a whole is connected to at least one interlocking device (6) 15 It has. The locker (6) is placed on the locker axis (316) and here It is fixed in a rotatable manner. A locking spring (7) is attached to the lug of the locker (6). (62) is placed between the module's (31) spring support (315). Thus The locker (6) does not apply an external force to the limiter (314) It is based on. Each guide (312) of the module (31) has at least one pusher spring (5) 20 is placed. Then the pusher (4) is placed on the guides (312) and the column (313) It is positioned and pressed down in such a way as to compress its push springs (5). Thus, the pusher (4) is locked via the locker (6). At this stage, the module Even if the whole thing is turned upside down, none of the component modules connected to it will remain intact. It is not separated from the whole. In other words, the module as a whole is structurally 25 It is robust. This is true for module wholes and, consequently, module sequence wholes. It allows them to be assembled and transported anywhere. Thus, The manufacturer produces the entire module array and the final assembly of the socket in different production lines. can be carried out at their facilities. 125.03 9 Similarly, when a locking wire is used as a locking device... This structural integrity is ensured. The locking wire is attached to the column (313) at the aforementioned bottom and It is positioned so that it can move between higher stable positions. Each guide (312) of the module (31) shall have at least one pusher spring (5) is placed. Then the pusher (4) is attached to the guides (312) and the column (313) 5 It is positioned and pressed down to compress its push springs (5). Locking The wire is brought to the aforementioned lower stable position and the pusher (4) is locked by means of the wire. It is locked. At this stage, even if the entire module is turned upside down, it will not lock into place. No connected component module is separated from the whole module. In other words, The module as a whole is structurally sound. This means that the module assemblies, and therefore 10 The module array allows the entire system to be assembled and moved anywhere. This ensures that the manufacturer produces the entire module array and the final socket. can carry out the assembly in different production facilities. The subject of the invention is the socket (1), at least one sub-body (2), 15 fixed to the said sub-body. at least one module whole and / or module sequence whole, at least one upper body (10) It includes. In one application of the invention, the lower body (2) of the socket (1) is with at least one module (31) It is monolithic. 20 In wall-mounted sockets (1), the lower housing (2), the socket box embedded in the wall. it could be. In the preferred application of the invention, the entire module and / or a sequence of modules 25 The locking mechanism that the whole possesses is a locker, as described above. (6). In this application, the socket (1) is released by the user triggering the locker (6). at least one trigger (8) adapted for release and the trigger (8) upon which an external force is applied. At least one trigger that ensures it is held in a predefined position if not applied. It includes the bow (9). 30 125.03 When a plug is inserted into the socket (1) which is the subject of the invention, the pins of the plug push against their counterparts (42). and thus the thruster (4) will move away from the upper body (10) along the guide (312). It moves in this way. When the pusher (4) has advanced enough, the locker (6) It is locked via this. This is the position where the plug is inserted. The user can choose whichever option they want. By pressing the trigger (8), the pusher (4) is released. The released pusher (4) plugs the plug 5 It pushes and pulls the plug out of the socket. The lower body (2) preferably consists of one or more modules (31) and / or module arrays. (3) contains at least one module slot (21) suitable for placement inside. The module housing (21) is in the form of a recess created on the lower body (2). 10 The module housing (21) is the height of the module (31) from the lower body (2). It ensures that it is restricted. In the preferred application of the invention, the upper body (10) is inside the trigger (8). a passageway between an inner and an outer part of the upper body (10) where it is placed 15 It has at least one trigger slot (101) which forms. Thus, the user can pull the trigger (8) You can press the outside of the socket (1) and the trigger (8) is located inside the socket (1). It can interact with the components. The current structure of the modules (31) and the module array (3) is the series 20 of the socket (1) that is the subject of the invention. It makes production much easier. The manufacturing method of the socket (1) which is the subject of the invention; - Subtotal of at least one module whole and / or at least one module sequence whole joining with the body (2), 25 - The internal volume of the upper body (10) is placed facing upwards, - Inserting the trigger (8) into the trigger housing (101), - Inserting the trigger spring (9) into the trigger (8), - By rotating the lower body (2) and placing it onto the upper body (10) and into it It includes the steps for fixing it. 30 125.03 11 As previously mentioned, module sets and module sequence sets Their stable structure allows them to function without any parts becoming dislodged. It allows for rotation as desired. In the current production method, The parts that have the potential to come loose during production are the trigger (8) and the trigger spring. (9). The displacement of these parts is due to the upper body (10) being reversed during production. This is prevented by its positioning as such. In other words, the invention The most difficult thing the technician has to do to create the socket (1) is the bottom The goal is to rotate the body (2) and place it onto the upper body (10) and secure it there. While the technician is doing this, any part may become dislodged or slip. They will not have to worry about this. This both standardizes production and 10 It also accelerates the process. Here, the parts of the socket (1) that relate to the easy removal of a plug. It has been explained that the pin openings for the plug pins to pass through are (1) of the socket in question. busbars carrying electricity to the plug pins, safety windows (child lock), ground 15 It may have connectors and other components, and even comply with safety regulations. It is clear that it should have these in accordance with the law. The socket (1) also protects against darkness. lighting to enable the user to easily find the trigger (8) in the environment The element may also have additional components such as an indicator, a surge protector, etc. The part of the socket (1) that is visible to the user during use is the outside of the socket (1). This is part of it. This applies to both the upper body (10) and the lower body (2). Lower body (2) The volume defined by the upper body (10) is the internal volume of the socket (1). The lower body (2) and the side of the upper body (10) facing this volume is the interior of these. It is defined. 25 Here the spring expression (push spring (5), locking spring (7), trigger spring (9)), helical spring, conical springs, leaf springs, etc., are made from durable materials such as metal or plastic. Anything that can store mechanical energy and release that energy It is used in the sense of a mechanical element. 30 125.03 12 The subject of the invention is a socket (1) that can be mounted flush with or above the surface.
