[Technical field to which the device belongs]

 BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electric outlet, and more particularly, to an electric outlet provided with at least one protective member which is structurally improved so as to prevent dirt and moisture from entering the inside, which is hinged.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Currently, wall-mounted outlets have a junction box embedded in the wall or floor, and have at least one outlet equipped with a power outlet and a neutral wire outlet for receiving an electrical plug inserted from the outside. A socket in which a socket is fixed to the connection box, is internally connected to a power line from the outside, has a size corresponding to the connection box, and has a hole for exposing a socket insertion port. It is said that the plate is attached so as to cover the outermost part of the center.

Since the outlet of such a type has an exposed insertion port, it has a drawback that dirt and moisture are more likely to enter from the outside, which makes it impossible to connect to a power source and easily causes a short circuit. Was. Furthermore, there is a risk of causing a fire and electric shock to people.

[0004]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 It is an object of the invention to provide a kind of protected outlet in which the socket is shielded when not in use.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a kind of protected outlet that prevents ingress of dirt and moisture and enhances safety.

The present invention further aims to provide a kind of protected outlet having a decorative effect.

[0007]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The socket is exposed from the protective plate that is fastened to the connection box with screws and at least one socket is attached to the outer surface of the contact plate that is fixed in a snap type, and the hinged openable door is opened on the outer surface of the protective plate. I installed it.

[0008]

[Embodiment of device]

 The outlet of the present invention comprises an approximately traditional type outlet plate having at least one socket removably attached to or formed with a power inlet and a neutral wire inlet. A plurality of recesses having different shapes are provided for attaching the outlet plate to the connection box and attaching a protective plate to the outlet plate. Unlike traditional protective plates, the protective plate has a flat body with holes for receiving sockets attached to the outlet plate, with flanges protruding outward along the upper and lower edges of its longitudinal direction. And a pin hole is provided near each end of the flange, and the pin hole of one flange is provided so as to face the pin hole of the other flange. Further, at least one flat rectangular door corresponding to the pin hole and having a protruding axial pin inserted into it near the first end is hingedly attached to the protective plate with the axial pin. A handle ring is hingedly attached to the second end of the door for opening and closing. Normally, the door is opened when the socket is in use and the socket is closed when not in use. Furthermore, a roof decoration is formed in the center of one flange of the protective plate, which provides a decorative effect. In practice, the present invention can be implemented in various ways by coloring the door and changing the shape of the ornament.

【Example】

 FIG. 1 shows a preferred embodiment of the outlet of the present invention, which is in the form of a junction box (not shown) embedded in the floor or wall of a factory or office. It has one outlet plate 10 having an adaptable shape, and one protective plate 20 adapted to the outlet plate 10 in size. The outlet plate 10 is of a traditional type, and a plurality of recesses 11 and screw holes 12 provided for attaching the outlet plate 10 to the junction box and coupling with the protective plate 20 are provided on the predetermined shape. At least one socket 13 that is formed at a position and that includes a power inlet and a neutral wire inlet is arranged so as to be removable together or integrally formed. The socket 13 is electrically connected to the power cord before attaching the outlet plate 10 to the connection box.

A plurality of projecting snaps (not shown in the figure) are provided near the inner sides of the protective plate 20 and correspond to the recesses 11 of the outlet plate 10 and are at least one large hole. A socket mounting hole 22 is drilled in the center of the flat protective plate body 21 and is used to receive the socket 13 mounted on the outlet plate 10. Furthermore, a pair of flanges 23 and 24 that project outward from the protective plate main body 21 and extend along the two sides in the longitudinal direction are provided. A symmetrical axial hole 25 is provided, and a projecting roof-like ornament 26 is integrally provided at the center of the upper flange 23 to provide the effect of home decoration. In fact, the shapes and colors of the decorations can vary and can attract consumers. Further, at least one flat rectangular door 30 having a pair of shaft pins 31, 32 protruding outward near the first end and fitted into shaft holes 25 of the flanges 23, 24 is attached to the outer surface of the protective plate 20. To be A handle ring 33 is hingedly installed at a predetermined handle mounting location 34 near the second end of the door 30, and a pair of support bars 35 and 36 are vertically and inwardly provided near the second end of the inner surface of the door 30. It is provided so as to project and is used to maintain a predetermined space between the door 30 and the protective plate 20 when the door 30 is closed.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, at the time of assembly, the outlet plate 10 is first screwed into the connection box, and then the protective plate 20 is snap-fitted onto the outlet plate 10, and finally the door 30 is attached. By inserting the shaft pin into the pin hole of the protective plate 20, the hinge plate is attached to the protective plate 20. Since the door 30 is made of a flexible material, its attachment to the protective plate 20 is very simple. In addition, the door 30 can be colored to match the roof decoration 26 and provide an artistic decorative effect when mounted on the wall. The door 30 is closed when the socket is not used (see FIG. 2) and opened when the external plug 40 is inserted into the socket 13 (see FIG. 3).

[0012]

[Effect of device]

 As can be seen from the above, the outlet of the present invention prevents the ingress of dirt and moisture, and thus prevents short circuits, which may result in inability to connect to the power supply or risk of electric shock.
