Description

  The present invention relates to a changeover switch in a power outlet and its conductive holding leg, and in particular, when the changeover switch is arranged in the power outlet, two types are provided according to a method in which the conductive holding leg of the changeover switch is electrically connected. The present invention relates to a changeover switch in a power outlet and a conductive holding leg thereof, which can connect plugs of different insertion directions and have an effect of avoiding mutual interference between the plugs.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a power outlet 10a having a plurality of changeover switches 20a arranged in parallel has an outlet main body 102a and a cover 104a connected to the outlet main body 102a. Among them, each changeover switch 20a has a push button means 202a provided on the outlet main body 102a of the power outlet 10a, and two push buttons electrically connected to both ends of the bottom of the push button means 202a. The power outlet 10a has a plurality of insertion holes 1042a, and the plurality of insertion holes 1042a are formed in the power outlet 10a. Corresponding to the respective conductive sandwiching legs 204a of the changeover switch 20a, Conductive clamping legs 204a of the changeover switch 20a of respectively are housed in the insertion hole 1042a of the cover 104a of the power outlet 10a, respectively.

  Plugs of many electric appliances such as desk lamps, personal computers, printers, facsimiles, telephone devices and mobile phone chargers can be inserted into corresponding insertion holes 1042a in the cover 104a of the power outlet 10a, respectively. The corresponding switch 20a can be electrically connected to the conductive holding leg 204a, and each switch 20a can independently switch on or off the power.

  However, the conventional changeover switches 20a arranged in parallel with this type of power outlet are different from each other in that the two conductive sandwiching legs 204a of each changeover switch 20a can only electrically connect with one plug, and therefore, The plugs of the respective electric appliances are all inserted into the power outlet 10a from the same direction. However, in reality, the plugs of the respective electric appliances have different external shapes and volumes, and if a plug having a larger external shape and volume is inserted into the power outlet 10a in advance, the other plugs will be different. Often, when trying to insert into the insertion hole next to the plug, the two may interfere with each other, in which case one of the interfered plugs is inserted Since it has to be transferred to the hole and inserted, when the plugs of the electric appliance are arranged in parallel in the conventional power outlet, there is an insertion hole that often becomes unused, Due to the regret, the changeover switch 20a provided in the prior art power outlet still has a problem to be considered.

  Therefore, according to the present invention, when the changeover switch is disposed in the power outlet, the conductive holding leg of the changeover switch can electrically connect two plugs in different insertion directions, and the plugs interfere with each other. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a changeover switch in a power outlet and a conductive clamping leg thereof, which has an effect of avoiding such a situation.

In order to achieve the above object, a changeover switch arranged in a power outlet according to the present invention has a pressing button means, a conductive support piece and two conductive clamping legs, wherein the pressing button is provided. The means includes a housing having a storage space, the opening facing upward, a switch member stored in the storage space of the housing, and a pressing button cover pivotally mounted on an upper portion of the housing, The conductive support piece is secured to the bottom of the housing of the push button means and is electrically connected to a switch member of the push button means, and the two conductive clamping legs are respectively connected to the push button means. A switch which is fixed to both ends of a bottom portion of the housing and is provided with the pressing button means; The conductive legs are electrically connected to each other, and each of the conductive holding legs has a holding portion and a conductive portion connected to the holding portion. Each holding piece has a holding piece body and two curved elastic pieces extending outward from adjacent side edges of the holding piece body. And a connecting portion for connecting the holding piece bodies of the two holding pieces.
