In some embodiments, referring to fig. 9 and 10, the socket body 200 includes the base housing 204, the base cover 202, the circuit module 205 (specifically, the circuit module may be a circuit module in a variety of existing smart sockets) and the conductive pins 208 for accessing the power source, and the waterproof module 100 is directly detachably sleeved on the outer wall of the base cover 202 at the first plug jack 2022.

In some embodiments, the base cover 202 is removably mounted to the base housing 204 at an end thereof remote from the conductive pins 208. Specifically, by providing the clip and the corresponding clip groove at the butt joint of the base cover 202 and the base housing 204 (for example, the fourth clip 2023 is provided on the base cover 202, and the fourth clip groove 2041 is provided on the base housing 204, respectively), the two are detachably connected in a sealing manner by the clip and the clip groove.

In some embodiments, the waterproof module 100 includes: a waterproof sealing cover 120 which can be directly sleeved on the outer wall of the first plug jack 2022, comprising: a waterproof cover body 121 formed by enclosing the sealing cover and the side wall, and a third waterproof boss 122 provided at the center of the waterproof cover body 121.

In some embodiments, the waterproof seal cover is an interference fit with the outer wall at the first plug receptacle. Specifically, the waterproof sealing cover 120 is made of a flexible material, for example, soft rubber, so that when it is sleeved at the first plug jack 2022, the side wall of the waterproof sealing cover 120 is pressed and slightly deformed (i.e., interference fit is achieved) under the action of the outer wall of the first plug jack 2022, thereby the waterproof sealing cover 120 is firmly mounted at the first plug jack and has a very good sealing waterproof effect. Of course, only the side wall of the waterproof sealing cover matched with the outer wall of the first plug jack can be made of flexible materials.

Of course, in other embodiments, a first locking member and a first locking groove may be disposed on the outer walls of the waterproof sealing cover 120 and the first plug jack 2022, respectively.

Further, in order to avoid the loss or damage of the waterproof sealing cover 120 due to improper placement or the like after the waterproof sealing cover is detached from the socket cover 202, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 8 and 14, the waterproof module 100 further includes: the waterproof connector 110 detachably mounted on the socket body 200, and the flexible connector 130 fixedly connecting the waterproof connector 110 and the waterproof sealing cover 120, wherein the flexible connector 130 is made of a flexible material that can be elastically deformed.

Unlike the waterproof connector of the above embodiment, the waterproof connector 110 of the present embodiment directly employs a third clip member having a circular cross section or a triangular or oval shape, see fig. 9 and 10; accordingly, the base cover 202 of the socket body 200 is provided with a third clamping groove 2024 that can be matched with the waterproof connector 110, when the waterproof connector 110 is matched with the third clamping groove 2024, the waterproof connector 110 is detachably mounted on the base cover 202, and since the waterproof sealing cover 120 is fixedly connected with the waterproof connector 110 through the flexible connector 130, the waterproof sealing cover 120 is also detachably mounted on the socket body 200, and when the waterproof sealing cover 120 is matched with the outer wall of the first plug jack 2022, the waterproof sealing cover 120 seals the first plug jack 2022.

In some embodiments, the flexible connection unit 130 is made of an elastically deformable material, such as soft rubber, so that when the flexible connection unit 130 needs to be mounted on the socket cover 202, the flexible connection unit 130 can be sleeved from the first plug jack 2022 and gradually placed in the third clamping groove 2024, and in order to adapt to the size of the third clamping groove 2024 or the base cover 202, the flexible connection unit 130 may be deformed during the process of mounting the flexible connection unit 130; and when removed, the flexible connection unit 130 returns to its original state (i.e., an externally-applied state).

Further, in order to better waterproof, in the present embodiment, referring to fig. 11 and 12, a second waterproof boss 207 is also detachably mounted at the front end of the first plug insertion hole 2022 of the base cover 202. Specifically, referring to fig. 11 to 13, corresponding protrusions (or fifth snap 2071) and grooves (or fifth snap 2026) may be provided on the contact surface of the second waterproof boss 207 abutting against the base cover 202, respectively, so that the second waterproof boss 207 and the base cover 202 are detachably and sealingly connected through the snap and the snap.

In some embodiments, the second waterproof stage 207 is made of a flexible material, such as a soft gel. In particular, during implementation, the size of the protrusion arranged on the second waterproof boss 207 is slightly larger than the corresponding clamping groove arranged on the base cover body, so that the two are in interference fit, and the tightness between the two is ensured while stable connection is realized.

Since the second waterproof boss 207 is made of a flexible material, when the waterproof sealing cover 120 is detached from the first plug insertion hole 2022, waterproofing is performed by the second waterproof boss 207; alternatively, when the plug or another (same) smart jack is inserted into the first plug jack 2022, the second waterproof boss 207 abuts against the outer wall of the plug or the smart jack, so that the inserted plug or smart jack has good sealing property with the outer wall of the first plug jack, see fig. 15, and meanwhile, a certain abrasion caused by the fact that the inserted plug or smart jack directly contacts with the outer wall of the first plug jack is avoided.

Further, when the waterproof sealing cover 120 is sleeved at the first plug jack 2022, the second waterproof boss 207 may also be matched with the third waterproof boss 122 in the waterproof sealing cover 120, for example, sleeved on the outer wall of the third waterproof boss 122, or the third waterproof boss 122 is sleeved on the outer wall of the second waterproof boss 207.
