Therefore, as an essential tool for connecting electrical appliances and power sources, the function and application technology of plugs are constantly improving.

The plugs of current electrical products have been designed at the beginning of the design with or without ground poles. Furthermore, because countries in the world do not have uniform power supply safety regulations, the existing power plugs are respectively designed to be applied to two-hole or three-hole power sockets. Limited by the design and application of the power plug and socket, the design of the plug with ground poles (three holes) cannot be applied to the power socket with two holes, which causes inconvenience in use.

At the same time, in response to the needs of the times and the vigorous development of portable electronic products, the design of electronic products tends to improve the portability and convenience of movement. Use the power plug in the environment, and the power plug needs to be stored in the backpack for carrying. However, conventionally known power plugs are mostly fixed plugs, which are unfavorable for storage and carrying. Therefore, the variability of the power plug and the functional application of the folding storage combination are more and more important.

Contents of the invention

In view of this, the object of the present invention is to provide a plug whose structural design can solve the problems of known fixed plugs, such as unfavorable direction change, storage and carrying, and its application to different power sockets (two holes or three holes), and Simplify the design so that it has low production cost.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a plug, including: a rotation group, a plug group and a linkage group. Among them, the rotation group can rotate at any angle on its horizontal plane; the plug group (earth pole plug group and insertion pole plug group) is combined with the rotation group, and can rotate in the vertical direction of the rotation group; the linkage group is accommodated in the ground pole plug group And between the pole plug groups, and can control the vertical linkage relationship between the plug groups and their combinations.

Therefore, the present invention provides a plug that can be individually folded and stored for the ground terminal according to the different power sockets (two holes or three holes) applied through the control of the linkage group, making it suitable for different power sources socket. Moreover, the insertion pole and the ground pole terminal can be stored in the body through the control of the linkage group so that the surface is horizontal without protrusions, and the effective space application can reduce the volume required for storage to facilitate portability. At the same time, its variable direction and its flexible utilization can reduce the service life of the plug due to the space limitation and the user's forced pulling.
