Description of drawings

In order more easily to understand the utility model, will the of the present utility model specific embodiments relevant with accompanying drawing be described, in the accompanying drawing:

Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of first kind of form of switching device of the present utility model;

Fig. 2 is the schematic diagram of second kind of form of switching device;

Fig. 3 is the schematic diagram of the third form of switching device; And

Embodiment

With reference to Fig. 1, this device has main body 10, and this main body can be made by the plastic material of injection molding, and has extension pin 11 to be matched with supply socket in the one side.In Australia, according to required ground connection or non-earthing device, these pins are two angled pins normally, or two angled pins and a straight grounding pin.The form that is used for the pin of other countries will meet these national requirements.

Equally, on described main body, preferably at the opposite side of pin, can have conventional socket or socket 12, this routine socket or socket have the structure that matches with the structure of the pin of described equipment.

Described socket is preferably located on the main body side with respect to plug, but also can be positioned at an end of main body, or when needed, two sockets can be set at the opposite end of main body.

Electricity links to each other described pin 11 by the switching device of an insertion with described socket 12.

The switch that will describe can be the single-pole switch on the active lead, or is used for two leads are carried out the double-pole switch of switch.

Therefore, if described device places blanket socket, it provides one by the blanket socket of switch, and this switch can be away from this device and be operated.

Described switch can have polytype, but under the simplest situation, no matter the needs according to switch---switch is an one pole or bipolar, it can be the flexible conductor 13 that has two or four conductive members, these conductive members can end at one and include the switch enclosure 21 that a switching mechanism and extends switch rocking bar or analog 22, this switch enclosure 21 can be placed away from described device theme, places the distance of the length that equals lead 13.

In the simplest form, switch enclosure can have a mechanical switch, this mechanical switch can be one pole or double-pole switch as required, therefore when the socket on the described main body 12 needs operation, only need with switch rocking bar 22 from inoperative, the open loop state moves to moving the closed-loop path state.Though should be mentioned that switch rocking bar 22 in originally specifying, this term is used for general meaning, comprises any type of mechanism of console switch mechanism.

Because the Len req of lead only is 1-5 rice usually, this layout that distance switch is run directly in the circuit is very suitable.

Under this arrangement form, described device inserts described socket, and described equipment or a plurality of equipment are connected on the described socket by distribution panelboard (power-board) or backpack (piggy-back) plug.

When then needing the described equipment of switch or a plurality of equipment, only need to operate remote switch rocking bar 21.

Therefore, if blanket socket is positioned at inaccessible position, for people, the described socket of switch then becomes simple effectively from remote position.

The embodiment of Fig. 2 is in operation and the embodiment broadly similar of Fig. 1, and except in this case, socket 12 is arranged in a case 30 that is separated with the plug 31 that has pin 11, is connected by lead 32 between plug 31 and the socket 12.

In this case, described switching mechanism (not shown) is arranged in case 21, and has a rocking bar 22 or analog to extend through wherein.This electric operation is similar to last embodiment, except described plug 31 and pin 11 thereof via lead 32 to described socket 12 power supplies.

The embodiment of Fig. 3 is similar to the embodiment of Fig. 2, be connected in the plug 31 that carries out switch in it except the lead 13 from switch 21, and electric energy is connected to socket 12 via the lead 32 to plug 30.

Thereby described switch near described pin 11 be connected and lead 33 by switch.This is with wherein lead 32 is not different by second embodiment of switch.

In this embodiment, plug body 31 can be made by two parts 31a and 31b, and described two parts 31a and 31b are cylindric and coaxial, and are arranged to and can relatively rotate.Described pin and switch wire 13 are arranged in part 31a, and are connected to part 31b to the lead 32 of socket 12 transmission of electric energy.Described two parts are provided with a plurality of wiping contacts (wiping contacts), and this wiping contact is known in this area, and it allows electric energy to be passed to parts 31b from parts 31a.This makes socket 30 optionally to locate with respect to power supply.

Having described socket 12 wherein in the embodiment of Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 is layouts of single socket.

Figure 3 illustrates the many sockets 12 in box 30, be understood that these a plurality of sockets can be with in other embodiments.This will make described device be particularly suitable for the application such as computer etc.---this class has the three or more parts that are connected to power supply in using usually.

Though described the concrete form of multiple device at this, can use more complicated form fully.

For example, if do not wish to carry a large amount of electric currents to distance switch, can make a relay or electronic switching circuit that self just is loaded with the load current of this device of this switching manipulation by lead.

If desired, can provide the distance switch that produces RF or IF signal equally, described signal can with corresponding receiver cooperation in the main body, this receiver and then make switch move.

In having another embodiment of two or more supply sockets, a switch body of the present utility model that is associated with each socket can be arranged, and can use single switch to come switch to be connected to the equipment of each socket simultaneously.

Though in this explanation, described many embodiments, it should be understood that the utility model can be associated in any type of socket, no matter be two, three even four leads that have any connection pin form.Equally, device of the present utility model can have any feature that can find on various distribution panelboards and socket, for example surge protector, general insurance silk, indicator light (or lamp group).

Though in this a plurality of different embodiment of having described device, they all have same essential characteristic: blanket socket is remote operation effectively.

Under the situation that does not deviate from spirit and scope of the present utility model, in concrete device and circuit, can carry out various changes and modification.
