Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the time switch 010 includes a flip mechanism and a time switch body 101 disposed in the flip mechanism; the flip mechanism comprises a shell 100 and a cover 200, wherein a time control switch body 101 is arranged on the shell 100, and the shell 100 is provided with a mounting cavity 102 for mounting a battery; the cover 200 is rotatably provided to the housing 100, and is rotatable with respect to the housing 100 to an open position to open the installation cavity 102 or a blocking position to block the installation cavity 102.

It should be noted that the structure of the time switch body 101 and the manner of assembling the time switch body to the housing 100 are similar to those of the related art, and will not be described herein.

It should be appreciated that in embodiments in which the electrical device is a wall-on switch, the electrical device further includes a button disposed on the housing 100, the button being exposed when the cover 200 is rotated to the open position, and the button being blocked when the cover 200 is rotated to the blocked position; in the embodiment of the electrical apparatus being a wall-open socket, the electrical apparatus further includes a socket body, the socket body is disposed on the housing 100, and the socket body has a socket hole, and when the cover 200 is rotated to the open position, the socket hole can be exposed; when the cover 200 is rotated to the shielding position, the bolt hole can be shielded.

In the related art, in order to enable the cover body to smoothly rotate relative to the housing, an avoidance space needs to be reserved in the housing, so that the turned cover body part extends into the avoidance space and realizes rotation; therefore, when the cover body rotates to the shielding position, a larger gap is reserved between the shell body and the cover body, dust is easy to fall into the gap, and the attractiveness is required to be improved.

Referring to fig. 3, in the present embodiment, a shaft hole 110 is provided in the housing 100, the cover 200 includes a cover body 210 and a rotating shaft 220 connected to the cover body 210, and the rotating shaft 220 is inserted into the shaft hole 110, so that the cover body 210 can be turned to an open position or a shielding position relative to the housing 100 around the axis of the rotating shaft 220; the rotating shaft 220 can slide in the shaft hole 110 to drive the cover body 210 to slide relative to the housing 100. In this way, the cover 200 can not only rotate between the open position and the shielding position relative to the housing 100 through the rotation shaft 220, but also slide synchronously relative to the housing 100 by utilizing the sliding of the rotation shaft 220 in the shaft hole 110 during rotation, so that the cover 200 can be ensured to smoothly rotate without additionally leaving an avoidance space for the rotation of the cover 200 in the housing 100, and no large gap is left between the housing 100 and the cover 200 when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, thereby reducing dust fall and improving the aesthetic property.

Further, the cover 200 includes two rotating shafts 220, and the two rotating shafts 220 are respectively connected to two ends of the cover body 210; the housing 100 is provided with two shaft holes 110; the two rotating shafts 220 are inserted in one-to-one correspondence with the two shaft holes 110; in this way, it is ensured that the cover body 210 can reliably rotate about the axis of the rotation shaft 220, and that the cover body 210 can stably slide with the rotation shaft 220 with respect to the housing 100.

To ensure that the shaft 220 can be smoothly inserted into the shaft hole 110; referring to fig. 4, one end of the rotating shaft 220 is connected to the cover body 210, and the other end is provided with a guiding surface 221, and the guiding surface 221 can be slidably matched with the housing 100 for guiding the rotating shaft 220 to be inserted into the shaft hole 110.

The guide surface 221 is a slope, and is inclined with respect to an end surface of the rotating shaft 220 away from the cover body 210 toward an end near the cover body 210.

The shape of the shaft hole 110 may be selected as desired; referring to fig. 2, 5 and 6, the shaft hole 110 of the present embodiment is in a strip shape, and the shaft hole 110 has a first end 111 and a second end 112; when the cover body 210 rotates to the open position, the rotating shaft 220 abuts against the first end 111, that is, when the cover body 210 rotates to the open position, the rotating shaft 220 can slide towards the first end 111 synchronously, so that a gap is formed between the rotating shaft 220 and the second end 112, and a certain space is reserved behind the moving direction of the cover body 210; when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the rotating shaft 220 abuts against the second end 112, that is, when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the rotating shaft 220 can slide towards the second end 112 synchronously, so that a gap between the rotating shaft 220 and the second end 112 is reduced, and the cover body 210 can fill in a space left when the cover body is located at the opening position. In this way, when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the cover body 210 can be stably positioned at the shielding position relative to the cover body to reliably shield the mounting cavity 102; when the cover body 210 rotates toward the open position, the rotating shaft 220 abuts against the first end 111, so as to lift the user that the cover body 200 has been opened to a maximum angle, so as to prevent the cover body 200 from being damaged due to excessive overturning.

It should be understood that in other embodiments, the shaft hole 110 may be an arc-shaped long hole, an S-shaped long hole, an opposite long hole, or the like, and the rotation shaft 220 may be only required to slide in the shaft hole 110 to change the position of the rotation axis of the cover body 210 relative to the housing 100, that is, to implement the ectopic rotation.

To reduce the probability of the cover 200 being touched by mistake when rotated to the shielding position; referring to fig. 2 and 7, in the present embodiment, the housing 100 is provided with a receiving groove 103, the mounting cavity 102 is disposed at a bottom of the receiving groove 103, and when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the cover body 210 is embedded in the receiving groove 103.

In this embodiment, referring to fig. 4, the housing 100 is connected with a limiting rib 120, and the cover body 210 is connected with a limiting protrusion 230; when the cover body 210 is located at the open position, the limit protrusion 230 abuts against the limit rib 120, so that the cover body 210 hovers. In this way, when the battery in the mounting cavity 102 needs to be replaced, the cover body 200 is rotated to be located at the open position, and the cover body 200 can hover at the open position through the abutting fit of the limiting rib 120 and the limiting protrusion 230, so that the user does not need to manually hold the cover body 200 at the open position, the hands of the user are liberated, and the battery replacement is facilitated.

Further, referring to fig. 4 and 8, the limiting protrusion 230 has a first abutting surface 232 and a second abutting surface 233, and the first abutting surface 232 and the second abutting surface 233 are respectively located at two ends of the limiting protrusion 230 in the length extending direction; when the cover body 210 rotates to the open position, the first abutting surface 232 abuts against the limiting rib 120; when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the second abutting surface 233 abuts against the limiting rib 120. When the cover body 210 rotates to the open position and the first abutting surface 232 abuts against the limiting rib 120, the cover body 210 can be reliably suspended in the open position, so that a user can conveniently perform maintenance such as battery replacement; when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the second contact surface 233 contacts the stop rib 120, so as to improve the stability of the cover body 210 at the shielding position.

In order to prevent the limit protrusion 230 and the limit rib 120 from interfering with the rotation of the cover 200; one end of the limiting protrusion 230 is connected with the cover body 210, the other end of the limiting protrusion 230 is provided with a guide surface 231, and the guide surface 231 is connected between the first abutting surface 232 and the second abutting surface 233; when the cover body 210 rotates relative to the housing 100, the guide surface 231 can slide on the surface of the stop rib 120.

Further, the guide surface 231 is a circular arc convex surface; when the cover body 210 rotates to the shielding position, the limiting rib 120 abuts against the circular arc convex surface, so that the rotating shaft 220 can slide in the shaft hole 110, and the cover body 210 slides relative to the housing 100. In this way, the cover body 210 can rotate towards the shielding position around the axis of the rotating shaft 220, and the limiting protrusion 230 is driven to move synchronously, so that the arc convex surface slides on the surface of the limiting rib 120, and the cover body 210 and the rotating shaft 220 slide synchronously through the abutting action of the limiting rib 120, namely, in the process that the cover body 210 rotates towards the shielding position, the rotating axis of the cover body can shift, the ectopic rotation is realized, and even if the shell 100 does not reserve an avoiding space for the rotation of the cover body 200, the cover body 210 can be ensured to rotate smoothly to the shielding position.
