Following description relates to the preferred implementation according to umbrella of the present invention.For the ease of understanding the present invention, in specification with reference to the accompanying drawing of illustrative socket in a preferred embodiment wherein.Parts similar between the execution mode are indicated by identical Reference numeral.
As stated, the electrical socket that is suitable for receiving the plug of various criterion is commonly referred to " blanket socket " or " international style socket ".In this manual, term " blanket socket " only for convenience purpose and use, and do not mean that and comprise any special technique implication, to avoid uncertain.For the sake of clarity, blanket socket comprises the international style socket that is used to receive the plug that meets various national standards.
With reference to Fig. 1, wherein show first preferred implementation of socket of the present invention.This socket 100 is suitable for receiving the plug of various national standards and international standard, for convenience's sake, some examples has been shown among Table A below and the B.
The socket of Fig. 1 comprises first socket region 1 and second socket region 2 that is used to receive the first kind and the second type of electrical plug.Two socket region are provided among the present invention, with the needs of the plug that satisfies various pin sizes and structure, thereby make plug not too loose ground be contained in the contact receptacle, to reduce the risk that can cause the overheated of fire hazard or personal injury and/or form electric arc.
Among the present invention, two socket region distinguish respectively, so that first socket region 1 is suitable for only receiving the rectangular pin structure, and make second socket region 2 be suitable for only receiving the circular pegs structure.
It should be noted that term " rectangular pin " is understood to include the pin with noncircular cross section, for example comprise flat or elongated pin and thick rectangular pin.
First socket region 1 and second socket region 2 respectively comprise a pair of base contact receptacle and the 3rd contact receptacle, and these three contact receptacle form the summit of isosceles triangle.Each contact receptacle comprises contact hole and the contact mechanism that is positioned under the contact hole.Contact hole defines when inserting can be near the size and dimension in the hole of plug contact plug.Contact hole typically is formed on usually on the rigidity procapsid of being processed by durable plastic material, so that pin contacts mechanism and following cloth wire terminal and exterior insulation.Contact mechanism generally includes the Metal Contact device that forms elastic bracket formula buckle, thereby the suitable pin that blocks plug with compress mode is to keep good electrical contact.This compression contactor is well known in the art, and is incorporated into this to quote mode as proof.Particularly, each is located the summit, base that base contact receptacle 121-121a, 122-122a are positioned at isosceles triangle, and the 3rd contact receptacle 123 is positioned at the place, summit.For ease of reference, use the name of various standards in Fig. 1 illustration in each contact receptacle of first and second socket region of this socket the respective electrical of each connect.For example, each is connected respectively to N (zero line) and L (live wire) terminal to the base jack, and the 3rd contact receptacle 113,123 is used to be connected to the E ground wire terminal.Can see that from Fig. 1 contact receptacle is arranged to, the contact receptacle that is positioned at the 3rd contact receptacle homonymy of first socket region and second socket region is used for being connected to the terminal of same tag.For example, the contact receptacle in the 3rd contact receptacle left side is connected to " N " terminal, and the contact receptacle on the 3rd contact receptacle right side is connected to the L terminal, and the 3rd contact receptacle is connected to the E terminal.
With reference to Fig. 1-7 and Table A and B, first socket region 1 is suitable for receiving from the illustration purpose plug (Class1 plug) of the rectangular pin structure of listing among the table B below.More specifically, first kind plug comprise the plug that meets following standard: British Standard BS1363 (250V, 13A), Chinese Industrial Standards (CIS) GB1002 (250V, 10A), Australian Standard AS3112 (250V, 10A), TIS166-2535, Thailand's safety standard.Table B secondary series illustration various plugs how to be assembled to second socket region, second socket region that neutralizes and to hold various plugs how generally.For example, Chinese Industrial Standards (CIS) plug GB1002 comprises that the cross section is roughly two parallel pins of rectangle, and this long limit to pin is parallel.This contact hole that is suitable for receiving this GB1002 plug to parallel pin partly be formed on approximating this on the contact hole of base.In addition, also with this to contact hole each other the shape of hithermost part be shaped to a pair of divergence expression pin that receives AS3112.In addition, comprise at plug under the situation of the 3rd pin, also the 3rd contact hole on second socket region is formed and is shaped to the 3rd pin that receives plug.But the TIS166-2535 plug is similar to the structure of GB1002 has the 3rd pin, and second socket region is provided with the 3rd contact hole of suitable moulding and structure.The BS1363 plug comprises that the cross section is roughly the pair of pin of rectangle, and this is to the longitudinal axis of pin conllinear roughly.The cross section of the 3rd pin of BS1363 plug is roughly rectangle, its longitudinal axis be connected to form summit, isosceles triangle base this to the straight line of base pin quadrature roughly.For this that holds the BS1363 plug sold the base, the contact hole size of first socket region is made among the reception table B this shown in the 13rd row base is sold.Similarly, last contact hole size also is made for the pin of the top that receives this plug.
Second socket region 2 is suitable for receiving the various plugs that are referred to as circular pegs plug (type 2 plugs), in the 1st row of Table A, has listed the example of these plugs.More particularly, the plug of Class1 comprises that the cross section is roughly the pin of circular a pair of almost parallel.As example easily, the size of the base contact hole of this first socket region is made for, make and can under the situation of the elastic metallic contactor below the extruding contact is positioned at contact hole, receive the circular pegs of diameter between 3.7mm and 5.1mm with the tight fit mode.Certainly, be without loss of generality, the diameter range of the receivable pin in hole, base can be according to concrete application and difference.Typical circular pegs plug is shown in the secondary series of figure A, and comprises the plug of conform european standard EN50075, Spain standard SEV1011, Unificazione Italian CEI23-16, Scandinavia standard C EE7.Similarly, the BS546 plug comprises that the cross section is roughly circular pin, and therefore the size with contact hole is made for the pin that preferably holds three circular with the tight fit mode.
In order also to satisfy the needs of the circular pegs plug with the 3rd circular pegs, the circular port of a pair of alternative is arranged on shown in regional 1 example this between the contact hole of base.More particularly, this circular contact hole to alternative comprise with this to first circular port of base contact hole conllinear and second circular port of setovering with the straight line that is connected hole, two bases.Be set to receive the 3rd pin that the corresponding construction plug for example has the Italian CEI23-16 plug of three contact plugs with this first alternative circular port to hole, base conllinear.Equally, the middle contact hole of biasing is used to receive the offset pins of Switzerland's plug/Spain plug SEV1011.
Broadly, the size of the base contact receptacle of first socket region 1 is suitable for receiving the plug of the pin with rectangular cross sectional shape and size, and comprises that the plug of one or more pins of circular section shape is applicable to second socket region 2.
Be used to comprise second socket region of the plug of circular pegs or non-circular pins through configuration, less by this of second socket region to the pin kind that the base socket holds, and can provide the elasticity clamping force on the pin tighter safer contact mechanism.
With reference to Fig. 1 and 2, first socket region 1 and second socket region 2 are arranged to once more, make the isosceles triangle that is formed by corresponding contact hole be the relation of almost parallel each other and axialy offset.Fig. 3 illustration the structure of Fig. 1 and 2 as having the application of the wall socket of the procapsid mounting panel of processing by durable plastic material.
