Rotary Plug Socket With Fasten Pin For Panel Mounting
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Conventional wall-mounted sockets lack rotational flexibility, have insufficient fastening strength, and cannot accommodate mobile phones due to limited plug design.
Innovation Solution
A socket with a rotary plug structure featuring a rotation part, live and neutral blades, a ground pin, and a fasten pin for secure attachment to a socket panel, along with an accommodation holder for hand-held devices, allowing 90-degree or 360-degree rotation and improved fastening.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Adaptability or versatility
If a fixed plug structure is used, then the socket structure is simple, but the socket cannot be rotated and has limited adaptability to different panel orientations
Solution Approach 1:
The plug is designed with a rotation part that can rotate 90 degrees or 360 degrees relative to the housing, transforming the fixed structure into a dynamic one. This allows the socket to adapt to different panel orientations while maintaining a relatively simple overall structure.
Solution Approach 2:
The plug structure is divided into separate functional parts: a housing, a rotation part containing the electro blades, and a fasten pin. This segmentation allows the rotation part to be independently rotated without affecting the entire socket structure, enabling rotational flexibility while keeping each component simple.
2Strength
If only two electro blades and a ground pin are used for fastening, then the socket structure is simple, but the fastening strength is insufficient
Solution Approach 1:
The fasten pin is integrated into the rotation part along with the electro blades and ground pin, combining fastening function with electrical connection function. This merging approach increases fastening strength without significantly increasing overall structural complexity.
3Adaptability or versatility
If a conventional fixed plug design is used, then the socket serves traditional purposes, but it cannot accommodate mobile phones
Solution Approach 1:
The socket is designed with universal adaptability by providing both traditional AC power connection functionality and mobile phone accommodation capability through the rotation part structure. The rotation part can serve multiple purposes: electrical connection and physical support for mobile devices, enabling one socket to fulfill multiple functions without significantly increasing complexity.

AI summary
The present invention relates to a socket having rotary plug structure which comprises a housing and a rotary plug exposed outside the housing. At least a first socket is coupled to the rotary plug thereby allowing an electric equipment to be inserted. The rotary plug includes a rotation part and a ground pin fastened in the rotation part. A fasten pin is formed in the rotation part, wherein the distanced defined from the center point of the ground pin to the center point of the fasten pin is 38.9 mm±10%. With the mentioned structure, the socket having rotary plug structure is enabled to be fastened onto a socket panel.
