【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a power distribution outlet A with an original switch according to the present invention, and FIGS. 2A and 2B show a state in which the power distribution outlet A with an original switch of FIG. 1 is removed from a power supply outlet 7. It is a perspective view.

In the figure, 1 is a main body of an outlet, 2 is an original switch for turning on / off power supply to a load device connected to a distribution outlet A with an original switch, and 3 is for connecting a load device. Distribution outlets 4 are distribution plugs for connecting to the power supply outlet A. Although the original switch 2 in the illustrated example is a tumbler switch, it may be a cylindrical round button switch (not shown) so that power supply can be turned on and off by a manual operation such as push-down or push-up.

In the illustrated example, the original switch 2 is provided on the upper surface 1 a of the outlet body 1, the power plug 4 of the component body 1 is inserted into the power outlet 7, and the whole surface 1 b of the outlet body 1 and the side surface 1c and 1b are each provided with a total of three power distribution outlets 3. If the plug 5 of the load device is inserted into this power distribution outlet 3 and held, and the original switch 2 is turned on. When the power is supplied to the load equipment and the original switch 2 is turned off in this state, the power supply to the connected load equipment can be cut off all at once. The power to the load devices can be shut off all at once without removing the plug 5, and the power switch 5 can be checked to see if it is on or off. It is convenient because it can eliminate the cause of fire caused by heating the cord. However, it is not always necessary to turn on / off the power of the load device by the original switch 2, but the power of the load device is turned on / off by the switch of the load device and connected to the power distribution outlet 3 of the outlet main unit 1 such as when sleeping The power may be completely cut off by the main switch 2 of the outlet main body 1 when turning off all the power of the loaded load device.

FIG. 3 is a schematic view showing a second embodiment of the present invention. The structure of this embodiment is substantially similar to that of the first embodiment, but a non-contact type infrared sensor 21 is used instead of the manually operated tumbler switch in the first embodiment. 11e, and a total of three power distribution outlets 13 are provided on the entire surface portion 11b and the side surface portions 11c and 11d of the outlet main body portion 11.

In this case, the power supply is turned on and off by the infrared sensor 21 embedded in the lower surface 11 of the outlet main body 11, and the upper part of the infrared sensor 21 is blocked by a human limb for a certain period of time. This is performed in conjunction with the wiring circuit of the power distribution outlet 13. The infrared sensor 21 has a low detection sensitivity so that it will not be detected even if a small animal moves or is blocked by household items, etc., and it will not be detected unless the upper surface of the infrared sensor 21 is covered for a certain time or longer. Is set

FIG. 4 is a schematic view showing a third embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment as well, the structure is similar to that of the first and second embodiments, but instead of the original switch 2 and the infrared sensor 21, a non-contact type remote control light receiving surface 22 which can be operated remotely is used as a concentrator. It is provided on the entire surface portion 21b of the main body portion 21, and a total of three pieces are provided on the upper surface portion 21a and the side surface portions 21c and 21d of the outlet main body portion 21, respectively.

In this case, turning on / off the power supply is provided in the remote controller 8 so that a signal output from the remote controller 8 by an on / off switch operation is provided on the entire surface 21 b of the outlet main body 21. When the remote control light receiving surface 22 detects the transmitted signal, the remote control light receiving surface 22 is interlocked with the wiring circuit of the power distribution outlet 23 to supply or cut off power to the load device.

In the illustrated example, the remote controller 8 used in this case is configured to simply turn on and off the original switch of the power distribution outlet A, but the wireless remote controller operator for the certification device and the television receiver are used. The remote controller of the audio device may be provided with an operation button for the original switch.

As described above, by turning on and off the power supply to the load devices connected to the power distribution outlets 3, 13, and 23 with the original switches 2, 12, and 22, the leakage of the load devices is prevented and the frequency of the plug 5 is reduced. It is possible to prevent twisting damage caused by plugging and unplugging, and to prevent electric shock due to biting of the power cord 5a by a pet while sleeping. In addition, a high-capacity, heat-resistant material (thermosetting resin) is used to prevent the power cord 5a of the load equipment connected to the power distribution outlet A with the original switch from generating heat and from breaking the breaker due to a short circuit of the cord. By using a material that is hard to break (thermoplastic resin), it is possible to properly eliminate the problem of power over.

Further, in the first, second, and third embodiments, the distribution outlet A with an original switch of the type (for example, AC100V) used in general households is taken as a specific example, but with the original switch according to the present invention. The specific type of distribution outlet A is not limited to this. It goes without saying that the structure can also be made as a type that can accommodate, for example, a plug having a ground terminal.

[0020]

[Effect of device]

 By operating the source switch provided on the power distribution outlet with the original switch according to the present invention, the power of the connected load devices can be shut off all at once, and if you look at the power outlet with the original switch, you can see the load device. The on / off status of the power cord can be checked, which can prevent the occurrence of a fire due to forgetting to disconnect the power cord or forgetting to switch off the power cord.Prevention of electric leakage and twisting of the electric cord due to mischief of a child when not in use, or damage due to biting of small animals such as pets. It also helps prevent electric shock accidents.
