Description

The present invention relates to a power strip, and more particularly to a power cord in which the power cord can rotate with respect to the outlet body.

When using electrical products, the distance between the outlet installed on the wall of the building and the location of the electrical products is often longer than the length of the power cord installed in the electrical products. The table tap is used to make up for such a distance, and has the effect of extending the distance that electricity can be supplied from the outlet on the wall surface. As a result, the user can use the electric product at any position. Further, a table tap having a plurality of insertion ports may have an effect of increasing the number of insertion holes.

When using a power strip, if the power cord of the power strip is properly placed on the floor, a person can catch his / her foot and apply an external force, which can be easily damaged by being pulled. Therefore, there are safety concerns. On the other hand, if the power strip is attached directly to the wall surface for tidying up, one end of the power cord is excessively bent and damaged due to the limitation of the arrangement space, so that there is still a safety concern. Further, when the table tap is brought into close contact with the wall surface, it is difficult to dissipate the heat of the outlet.

In view of the above, how to provide a power strip for improving the above-mentioned drawbacks is an issue that needs to be solved in the industry.

It is an exploded perspective view of the table tap shown in FIG. It is a side view when the plug is inserted into the table tap shown in FIG.

Refer to FIGS. 1 to 3 which are a perspective view and an exploded perspective view of the table tap 10 based on a preferred embodiment of the present invention. By electrically connecting the table tap 10 to a wall outlet (commercial power outlet), the electric supply distance (not shown) from the wall outlet can be extended. The table tap 10 includes an outlet body 100, a rotating assembly 200, a power cord 300, and a pad 400. Hereinafter, the technical contents of each member will be described in order.

The outlet body 100 may include an upper cover 110, a lower cover 120 facing the upper cover 110, a conductive assembly 130, and a first outlet 140. The upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 may be made of a hard material (for example, plastic), and are arranged so as to be intertwined with each other so as to form a housing having a storage space 150. The conductive assembly 130 is provided on the lower cover 120 and is located in the accommodation space 150. The conductive assembly 130 may be made of a metal material and has a plurality of sandwiching structures.
The first insertion port 140 is provided on the upper surface 111 of the upper cover 110 and is located above the conductive assembly 130. By doing so, when the table tap 10 is used, the electronic contact of the power plug is inserted into the first insertion port 140, extends into the accommodation space 150, and is connected to the conductive assembly 130 (conductive assembly 130). By being sandwiched between the two, it becomes possible to accept electrical energy.

The outlet body 100 can be further installed on the side surface of the upper cover 110 or the lower cover 120, or on the side surface 101 after the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 are engaged, and the second difference is located on the side of the conductive assembly 130. Includes outlet 160. In a preferred embodiment, the first outlet 140 includes two outlets to accommodate a plug (not shown) having two electronic contacts. The second outlet 160 also includes two insertion holes.
The distance between the second outlet 160 and the upper surface 111 of the upper cover 110 is such that when the power plug 20 is inserted into the second outlet 160, the ground terminal 21 (electronic contact for grounding) of the power plug 20 It is set to be located on the top surface 111 (see FIG. 4). As a result, both a plug having two electronic contacts and a plug 20 having three electronic contacts can be inserted into the second insertion port 160 and connected to the conductive assembly 130 to receive electrical energy.

The shapes of the first outlet 140 and the second outlet 160 shown in the figure correspond to the plug standards generally used in regions such as China, Japan, Vietnam, and Thailand. Not limited to this, any change to the outlet shape belongs to the range claimed by the present invention. Further, there is no limit to the number of the first outlet 140 and the second outlet 160. In addition, the distance between the second insertion port 160 and the upper surface 111 of the upper cover 110 may be designed according to the difference in the plug standard.

2 and 3 are referred to at the same time. The upper cover 110 of the outlet body 100 further includes an upper extension portion 112, and the lower cover 120 further includes a lower extension portion 121. The lower stretched portion 121 corresponds to the upper stretched portion 112 and is separated from the upper stretched portion 112. The rotary assembly 200 is provided between the upper stretching portion 112 and the lower stretching portion 121.
The rotary assembly 200 may be a hollow housing, the upper surface 202 and the lower surface 203 having holes 204 corresponding to the columnar protrusions 104 of the upper extension 112 and the lower extension 121, respectively. As a result, when the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 are engaged with each other, the rotary assembly 200 is rotatably connected to the upper extension portion 112 and the lower extension portion 121. Further, even when the upper cover 110 and the lower cover 120 are separated, the rotating assembly 200 can be kept connected to the upper extension portion 112 or the lower extension portion 121 without falling off. The rotating assembly 200 is provided so as to be rotatable clockwise / counterclockwise by an angle A with respect to the outlet body 100. The angle A may be 90 degrees or less, 120 degrees or less, or 180 degrees or less.

As shown in FIG. 2, the side surface 201 of the rotating assembly 200 includes a first opening 210. The power cord 300 is inserted into the first opening 210, extends into the outlet body 100, and is connected to the conductive assembly 130 (not shown). Specifically, the power cord 300 includes a plurality of leads (not shown).
The size of the first opening 210 can be determined in the outlet body 100 by inserting a plurality of conductors into the rotating assembly 200 and then pulling it out from the second opening 220 provided on the upper surface 202 or the lower surface 203 of the rotating assembly 200. Is set to enter and connect to the conductive assembly 130. In this way, the lead wire is pulled out from the upper surface 202 or the lower surface 203 of the rotating assembly 200 and enters the outlet main body 100 (because it is pulled out from the other side of the side surface 201 of the rotating assembly 200 and enters the outlet main body 100). The lead wire is not exposed when the rotating assembly 200 is rotated.

Further, the second opening 220 of the rotary assembly 200 may be extended along the rotation direction of the rotary assembly 200 so as to have a sufficient width. As a result, when the rotating assembly 200 is rotated, the plurality of conducting wires located in the second opening 220 are not pulled.

As shown in FIG. 3, optionally, the power strip 10 further includes a power cord 300 and a switch 500 connected to the conductive assembly 130. As a result, the user can manually turn on / off the electric energy supplied from the first outlet 140 and the second outlet 160. Further, the switch 500 may have a power failure and fire prevention function in cooperation with the conductive assembly 130 so as to automatically cut off the supply of electric energy when the temperature of the conductive assembly 130 becomes excessive. The switch 500 may be provided on the side surface 102 of the outlet body 100, preferably in the concave groove 103 on the side surface 102. As a result, as a result of the user accidentally touching the switch 500, a situation in which a plurality of connected electronic devices are unexpectedly disconnected is less likely to occur.

As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the lower cover 120 of the outlet body 100 further includes a through hole 123 provided in the lower surface 124 of the lower cover 120. Further, the upper surface 401 of the pad 400 includes the protrusion 410, and the pad 400 can be installed on the lower cover 120 by inserting the protrusion 410 into the through hole 123. Specifically, the protrusion 410 and the through hole 123 may have a press-fitting structure that can be locked to the through hole 123 by inserting the protrusion 410 into the through hole 123. Alternatively, the protrusion 410 may have a hook, and the protrusion 410 may be inserted into the through hole 123 so that the protrusion 410 can be engaged. Alternatively, the lower cover 120 may include a magnetic suction portion, the pad 400 may include the other magnetic suction portion, and the magnetic suction portion and the other magnetic suction portion may attract each other (not shown).
Further, an adhesive is further provided on the lower surface 402 of the pad 400 so that the pad 400 can be adhered to the wall surface W. Preferably, the adhesive can be repeatedly adhered so that the adhesive does not remain on the wall surface W or damage the wall surface W (for example, peeling of paint). Further, the pad 400 may be adhered to the wall surface W with an adhesive of other types as well as an adhesive that can be repeatedly adhered. In addition, the pad 400 may be fixed to the wall surface W by a method such as a bolt, a nail, or a hook.

In this way, since the outlet body 100 can be suspended or fixed to the wall surface W via the pad 400, the outlet body 100 and the power cord 300 are not scattered on the floor and kicked or stepped on by the user. .. Further, more preferably, the pad 400 has a sufficient thickness (for example, 1 cm) so that the outlet main body 100 and the wall surface W do not come into close contact with each other and are separated from each other. This provides a favorable heat dissipation effect. All or part of the pad 400 may be made of a material having high thermal conductivity such as metal or ceramics in order to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the outlet body 100.

As described above, the table tap of the present invention allows the user to rotate the direction of the power cord, so that the power cord is not excessively curved and damaged during use. Moreover, since the pad is provided, it is possible to avoid a situation in which the table tap is in close contact with the wall surface and it becomes difficult to dissipate heat, and the heat dissipation effect is improved.

The above-mentioned embodiment is merely for exemplifying the embodiment of the present invention and explaining the technical features of the present invention in detail, and does not limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any changes or equivalent adjustments that can be easily completed by those skilled in the art belong to the scope claimed by the present invention, and the scope of protection of the rights of the present invention follows the scope of the utility model registration claim.
