Illustratively, as shown in fig. 4, the first housing 1 includes two first jack panels 12, two shutters 13, and one second jack panel 14. The two first jack panels 12 and the two baffle plates 13 are sequentially connected end to end and are connected to the same side of the second jack panel 14 together to form a box-shaped structure with an opening 11 at one side. At this time, the second jack panel 14 is disposed opposite to the opening 11, i.e., the opening 11 is located at the upper side of the first housing 1, and the second jack panel 14 is located at the lower side of the first housing 1. In addition, the first casing 1 further includes four first support columns 15, and a lower end of each first support column 15 is fixed to the inner side of the first casing 1, that is, at a seam between each first jack panel 12 and each baffle plate 13, so as to reinforce the connection strength between the first jack panel 12 and the baffle plate 13. The upper end of each first support column 15 protrudes upwards from the opening 11, and a first locking groove 41 is formed in the upper end of each first support column 15.

Wherein, four first hooks 42 are fixed on the inner side of the side frame plate 312. In this way, when the second housing 3 is installed at the opening 11 (shown in fig. 2) of the first housing 1, each first hook 42 is correspondingly engaged with one first slot 41 (shown in fig. 3), so as to detachably connect the second housing 3 with the first housing 1. The side frame plate 312 includes four panels (not shown) connected end to end in sequence, and the four first hooks 42 are respectively located at the connecting positions of two adjacent panels.

The first casing 1 and the second casing 3 enclose a main body structure of the magic cube socket, which is generally approximately a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped structure. When the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 are connected through the first clamping structure 4, the lower ends of the four first support columns 15 provided with the first clamping grooves 41 can be respectively and fixedly connected with the two first jack panels 12 and the two baffles 13, and the fixing positions of the first clamping hooks 42 are correspondingly adjusted at this time. In addition, the upper ends of the two first jack panels 12 and the two baffles 13 may be respectively provided with first locking grooves 41, and correspondingly, the first locking hooks 42 protrude from the second housing 3, so that each first locking hook 42 is correspondingly locked with one first locking groove 41. The installation positions of the first card slot 41 and the first card hook 42 can also be exchanged, for example: the first support column 15 is provided with a first hook 42, and the inner side of the second housing 3 is provided with a first slot 41 corresponding to the first hook 42. The above-mentioned multiple structural style of first joint structure 4 all can satisfy the joint installation between first casing 1 and the second casing 3. And is not particularly limited herein.

The main structure of the magic cube socket enclosed by the first case 1 and the second case 3 may be similar to a triangular prism, a pentagonal prism, or a hexagonal prism, and the like, and the structure is not limited here.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 2 and 4, two first jack panels 12 are disposed opposite to each other, and each first jack panel 12 has a double-plug jack 121 and a first third-plug jack 122 for respectively inserting a double-plug and a three-plug (not shown). Correspondingly, the receptacle assembly 2 includes a receptacle body 21 and two receptacle seats 22 located on opposite sides of the receptacle body, and each receptacle seat 22 is disposed corresponding to one of the first receptacle panels 12. Illustratively, each receptacle 22 includes five receptacles (not shown), each of which has a corresponding conductive metal strip disposed therein for contacting the metal blades of the plug to make electrical connection therewith. Since the receptacle assembly 2 is located in the first housing 1, the five plug holes of each receptacle 22 are aligned with the dual-plug jack 121 and the first third plug jack 122 of the first jack panel 12, respectively, so as to facilitate the plugging of the dual-plug and the three-plug.

In addition, with continued reference to fig. 2 and 4, the socket assembly 2 further includes three conductive insertion pieces 23, upper ends of the three conductive insertion pieces 23 are respectively and fixedly connected with a lower end of the socket main body 21, and are respectively and electrically connected with a live wire position, a neutral wire position and a ground wire position of the socket main body 21, and the two socket seats 22 are respectively located at two opposite sides of the socket main body 21. Correspondingly, a second third jack 141 is provided on the second jack panel 14, and the lower ends of the three conductive insertion pieces 23 respectively pass through the second third jack 141 for inserting into an external power socket, so that each of the sockets 22 is in a power connection state.

It should be noted that, for the first casing 1, the number of the first jack panel 12 connected to the second jack panel 14 may be one, which corresponds to three baffles 13 and one jack seat 22. The number of the first receptacle panels 12 may also be three, corresponding to one shutter 13 and three receptacles 22. In addition, it is also possible to connect with the second jack panel 14 through four first jack panels 12, in which case the number of jacks 22 is four. Correspondingly, each socket 22 is electrically connected by three conductive blades 23. In use, the three conductive sheets 22 can be directly inserted into an external power socket, and at this time, the second receptacle panel 14 contacts or even fits with the external power socket.

In other embodiments, the first housing 1 includes a baffle plate 13 disposed opposite to the opening 11, and four first jack panels 12 connected to the baffle plate 13, respectively, and one jack seat 22 is installed corresponding to each first jack panel 12.

In use of the puzzle socket, the barrier 13 opposite the opening 11 is in contact with the ground, a table or other support surface for supporting the puzzle socket, and the four first receptacle panels 12 are for receiving a plug. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the number of the first jack panels 12 may also be one, two, or three, and the other panels of the first housing 1 are replaced with the corresponding number of the baffle plates 13. And is not limited herein.

Wherein, in order to make the magic cube socket convenient to use at night or in the scene that visibility is low. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the magic cube socket further includes a lamp assembly 5, and the lamp assembly 5 includes a circuit board 51 and a light emitting member 52. The circuit board 51 is mounted above the socket body 21 and electrically connected to the socket body 21. The light emitting element 52 is fixedly mounted on the upper side of the circuit board 51, and the second housing 3 above the circuit board 51 is provided with a light hole 32. Thus, after the magic cube socket is powered on, the light emitted by the lighted light emitting piece 52 can be transmitted to the external space of the magic cube socket through the light transmitting hole 32, so that the visibility of the magic cube socket in the current use scene is improved. The problem that the magic cube socket is inconvenient to use at night or in scenes with low visibility is solved.

It should be noted that, for the circuit board 51 and the socket main body 21, the electrical connection between the circuit board 51 and the socket main body 21 may be realized by a jumper. In addition, two first contact points of the live wire and the neutral wire may be provided at the upper end of the socket body 21, and two second contact points that are respectively in contact with the two first contact points may be provided at the lower end of the circuit board 51, so that when the circuit board 51 is mounted at a predetermined position at the upper end of the socket body 21, the circuit board 51 and the socket body 21 are electrically connected by abutting contact of the two second contact points with the two first contact points.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, a plurality of light emitting members 52 are fixed to an upper side of the circuit board 51. The number of the light emitting elements 52 is generally four, and the light emitting elements are distributed at intervals in a matrix. Furthermore, the number of illuminating elements 52 can also be one, two, three, five or even more.

The illuminating element 52 is typically provided as a light-emitting diode, such as a color-transparent light-emitting diode, a non-color-transparent light-emitting diode, a color-scattering light-emitting diode or a non-dispersion light-emitting diode. In addition, the light emitting member 52 may be a common bulb or any structure capable of emitting light by electroluminescence, and is not limited herein.

With continued reference to fig. 2, the lamp assembly 5 further includes a control switch 53, wherein the plurality of light emitting members 52 are electrically connected to the circuit board 51 through the control switch 53, and the control switch 53 is mounted on an upper side of the printed circuit board 51. By operating the control switch 53, the plurality of light emitting members 52 can be controlled to be turned on or off. Therefore, the control switch 53 can be operated to control the light-emitting member 52 to be turned off in a use scene with good visibility, and energy conservation is facilitated.

In addition, as shown in fig. 2 and 6, the light emitting member 52 is controlled to be turned on by the control switch 53 in a use scene with poor visibility. The lamp assembly 5 further includes an indicator lamp 54, and the indicator lamp 54 is mounted on the upper side of the circuit board 51 and electrically connected to the control switch 53. When the control switch 53 controls the light emitting member 52 to be turned off, the indicator lamp 52 is lighted. For example, at night with poor visibility, the plurality of light-emitting members 52 of the magic cube socket plugged into the power socket to be powered on are all in an off state, and at this time, the indicator lamp 54 is in an on state, so that a user can conveniently find the control switch 53 according to light emitted by the indicator lamp 54, and operate the control switch 53 to light the plurality of light-emitting members 52 to illuminate the surrounding space, so as to conveniently plug in the magic cube socket. For example: the magic cube socket is placed at a bedside or a living room, etc., and light is provided by the plurality of luminous members 52, so that a user can exercise at night, care for children, or care for pets.

It should be noted that the power rating of the indicator light 54 is smaller than the power rating of the illuminating member 52, which is very energy-saving. In addition, when the control switch 53 controls the illuminating member 52 to be turned on, the indicator lamp 54 is in an off state, so as to avoid the waste of electric energy caused by the constant on of the indicator lamp 54. Illustratively, the control switch 53 is a single-pole double-throw switch, wherein a middle terminal of the single-pole double-throw switch is electrically connected, and two terminals at two ends of the middle terminal are electrically connected with the light-emitting member 52 and the indicator 54 respectively, so as to realize the alternate control of the light-emitting member 52 and the indicator 54.

In some embodiments, with continued reference to fig. 2 and 6, the lamp assembly 5 further includes a button 55, and correspondingly, the second housing 3 has a switch hole 33 formed therein corresponding to the button 55, and the switch hole 33 is located above the control switch 53. The lower end of the button 55 abuts against the upper end of the control switch 53, the upper end of the button 55 closes the switch hole 33, and a position of the button 55 near the upper end has a limit structure (not shown) to prevent the button 55 from passing through the switch hole 33 upward. Illustratively, the control switch 53 is a push button switch, and when the button 55 is pushed down to turn on the light emitting member 52 and turn off the indicator 54, the button 55 is pushed down to turn on the control switch 53, turn off the light emitting member 52 and turn on the indicator 54. Thus, the control switch 53 is easily operated by the arrangement of the push button 55 and the switch hole 33. The button 55 may be made of transparent plastic or metal, and only a plurality of transparent through holes are formed in the button 55 made of metal along the vertical direction, which is not limited herein.

It should be noted that the switch hole 33 and the light hole 32 are both opened on the lamp panel 311, that is, the switch hole 33 and the light hole 32 are located on the same side of the second housing 3, which is convenient for finding and controlling.

In this case, since the light emitted from the light-emitting member 52 disposed inside the magic cube socket needs to illuminate the surrounding space outside the magic cube socket through the light-transmitting hole 32, it is avoided that foreign matters enter the inside space of the magic cube socket through the light-transmitting hole 32. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the lamp assembly 5 further includes a light transmissive cover 56, and the light transmissive cover 56 is installed at the light transmissive hole 32 to shield the light transmissive hole 32. Thereby avoiding foreign matters from entering the inside of the magic cube socket through the light holes 32, and further effectively isolating and protecting the structural device inside the magic cube socket. The light-transmitting cover 56 is made of a light-transmitting material, such as polyethylene or polycarbonate, which has a good light-transmitting property.

With continued reference to fig. 1 and 2, in order to prevent the light emitted from the illuminating member 52 from diffusing during the transmission to the light hole 32, the lamp assembly 5 further includes a light shielding tube 57, the light shielding tube 57 is mounted between the circuit board 51 and the light transmissive cover 56 in a pressing manner, and the upper and lower ends of the light shielding tube 57 are respectively communicated with the light transmissive cover 56 and the illuminating member 52. Illustratively, the upper end of the light shielding cylinder 57 is in contact with the light transmissive cover 56, and the lower end of the light shielding cylinder 57 is in contact with the circuit board 51 and covers the plurality of light emitting members 52, since the light shielding cylinder 57 has a through hole structure in the up-down direction. Therefore, the light emitted when the plurality of luminous elements 52 are turned on can be transmitted to the light-transmitting cover 56 through the light-shielding tube 57, and then transmitted to the surrounding space outside the magic cube socket through the light-transmitting cover 56, and the surrounding space can be illuminated. Since the light shielding tube 57 is generally made of plastic or metal material with high light reflection rate, most of the light emitted from the light emitting member 52 can be guided to the light transmitting hole 32 to increase the illumination intensity at the light transmitting hole 32.

As shown in fig. 2, the axial direction of the light-transmitting hole 32 is the vertical direction, and the area of the light-transmitting hole 32 is larger than the area occupied by the plurality of light-emitting elements 52. In the process of connecting the plurality of luminous members 52 and the light transmission holes, the size of the cross section (perpendicular to the up-down direction) of the light shielding cylinder 57 from the bottom up is gradually increased, so that the light emitted from the plurality of luminous members 52 is more diffused, thereby illuminating more areas through the light transmission holes.

Further, the upper and lower ends of the light shielding tube 57 are respectively abutted against the light transmitting cover 56 and the circuit board 51, and the upper and lower ends of the socket body 21 are respectively abutted against the circuit board 51 and the second jack panel 14. Therefore, when the magic cube socket is installed, the socket assembly 2, the circuit board 51, the light shielding cylinder 57 and the light-transmitting cover 56 are sequentially installed on the second jack panel 14 from bottom to top, and then the second housing 3 is fixed at the opening 11 on the upper side of the first housing 1 through the first clamping structure 4, so that the socket assembly 2, the circuit board 51, the light shielding cylinder 57 and the light-transmitting cover 56 are fixed between the first housing 1 and the second housing 3 in an extruding manner, which is very convenient.

It should be noted that, if the sealing performance and the fixing strength of the magic cube socket need to be improved, the light-transmitting cover 56 can be adhered to the light-transmitting hole 32 by glue. Correspondingly, when the second shell 3 is installed at the opening 11, the second shell 3 can be bonded to the upper end opening 11 of the first shell 1, so that the connection strength between the first shell 1 and the second shell 3 can be improved, and the sealing performance is good.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2, when the socket assembly 2 and the circuit board 51 are sequentially installed into the first housing 1, the circuit board 51 is accurately placed at a predetermined position on the upper side of the socket main body 21.

As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the magic cube socket further includes a first positioning structure 6, and the first positioning structure 6 includes a plurality of first positioning posts 61 and a plurality of first positioning holes 62. Illustratively, three first positioning posts 61 are fixedly connected to the upper side of the socket main body 21, and the three first positioning posts 61 are distributed at intervals and are asymmetric with each other. Correspondingly, the circuit board 51 is provided with three first positioning holes 62. In the process of mounting the circuit board 51 to the socket main body 21, each first positioning hole 62 on the circuit board 51 is first aligned with and inserted into one first positioning post 61 on the socket main body 21 to mount the circuit board 51 at a predetermined position of the socket main body 21. The installation process is convenient, and the location is accurate.

It should be noted that the number of the first positioning posts 61 and the first positioning holes 62 may be two, and the first positioning posts and the first positioning holes are distributed at intervals. However, at this time, when the circuit board 51 is mounted, the relative mounting positions of the circuit board 51 and the socket main body 21 have two preset mounting positions. Thus, it is necessary to set a large difference between the two preset mounting positions so that the circuit board 51 can be distinguished in time when mounted.

In other embodiments, a plurality of first positioning posts 61 may also be fixedly mounted to the underside of the circuit board 51. Correspondingly, a plurality of first positioning holes 62 are respectively formed on the upper side surface of the socket main body 21. Positioning and mounting between the circuit board 51 and the socket main body 21 can be achieved as well.

The number of the first positioning posts 61 and the first positioning holes 62 can also be four, five, six or even more.

Further, referring to fig. 7 and 8, the receptacle assembly 2 further includes a light guide groove 25. Correspondingly, the first positioning structure 6 further includes a light guide groove positioning hole 63 formed on the factor circuit board 51. When the circuit board 51 is mounted on the upper end of the socket body 21 from top to bottom, the light guide slot 25 penetrates the light guide slot positioning hole 63 from bottom to top and extends upward. At this time, the notch of the light guide groove 25 faces the control switch 53, and the light guide groove 25 semi-surrounds the indicator lamp 54, thereby preventing the diffusion of the light emitted from the indicator lamp 54, so that the light emitted from the indicator lamp 54 can be entirely guided and illuminate the button 55. Meanwhile, the insertion fit of the light guide grooves 25 and the light guide groove positioning holes 63 can also position the circuit board 51 to be mounted at a predetermined position on the socket body 21.

The number of each group of the first limiting protrusions 5011 is two, the two groups of the first limiting protrusions 5011 are respectively fixed on two opposite sides of the edge of the light-transmitting cover 56, and the two first limiting protrusions 5011 of each group are distributed at intervals. Correspondingly, the two sets of second limiting protrusions 5012 are respectively fixed on two opposite sides of the edge of the upper end surface of the light shielding cylinder 57. In this way, when the light-transmitting cover 56 is mounted from top to bottom and the light-transmitting cover 56 is approaching the light-shielding cylinder 57, each set of the second limit bumps 5012 is inserted into the gap between two of the first limit bumps 5011 in the corresponding set, so as to achieve the positioning and mounting of the light-transmitting cover 56 and the light-shielding cylinder 57. The positioning is accurate and the installation speed is high.
