Hereinafter, preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 1 to 6, and a description will be given centering on the parts necessary for understanding the operation and operation according to the present invention.

FIG. 1 is a view for explaining a rotatable outlet assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a view for explaining an exploded state of a rotatable outlet assembly, and FIG. 3 is a cross- Fig. 4 is a view for explaining the bottom surface of the inner cover of the rotatable socket-outlet assembly, and Figs. 5 and 6 are views for explaining the operating state of the rotatable socket-outlet assembly.

1 to 6, a rotatable socket-outlet assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a main body 110, an inner cover 120, a switch 130, a control unit 140, .

Here, the rotating type outlet assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention can be installed inside or outside the vehicle, and can be implemented in a structure that AC power is supplied from the AC inverter 10 mounted on the vehicle. The AC inverter 10 may be connected to the battery 20 of the vehicle to convert the DC power charged in the battery 20 into AC power and output the AC power.

The above-described vehicle includes both a vehicle equipped with an engine using petroleum fuel and an electric vehicle using electricity, and the battery 20 can be used for both a low-pressure battery of an engine-mounted vehicle, a battery of an electric vehicle, .

The main body 110 is provided with a pair of plug terminal insertion holes 111 into which plugs of an external device are inserted and a plug connection terminal 112 through which the AC power is supplied from the AC inverter 10 It is built in.

The plug insertion hole 111 is formed at a predetermined position on the upper surface of the main body 110 and is connected to the plug connection terminal 112. That is, when the plug of the external device to be supplied with power is received by the plug terminal insertion hole 111 of the main body 110, it can be electrically connected to the plug connection terminal 112.

The rotation shaft fixing hole 113 may be formed at a predetermined position on the main body 110 so that the rotation shaft fixing hole 113 may be formed with the inner cover 120 to be described later. (Not shown).

The main body 110 may be formed in a hexahedron shape or a polyhedron shape with an empty interior and includes a cover 114 for opening and closing an upper portion of the main body 110 and an inner cover 120 to be described later, And a lower body 115 attached to a lower portion of the lower body 115.

The inner cover 120 is rotatably installed on the main body 110 and is provided with a pair of plug terminal guide holes 121 corresponding to the plug terminal insertion hole 111.

4, a rotation shaft 122 positioned at the center of the plug terminal guide hole 121 protrudes from a lower portion of the inner cover 120, and the rotation shaft 122 extends from the main body 110). The elastic member may provide elastic force to return the inner cover 120 to a normal position when the inner cover 120 rotates about the rotation axis 122. [

Further, a protrusion 123 for pressing the switch 130 to be described later is further formed on the bottom surface of the inner cover 120. The protrusion 123 may be formed at a position where the switch 130 can be pressed when the plug terminal guide hole 121 and the plug terminal insertion hole 111 are positioned on the same vertical line. In addition, the protrusion 123 of the inner cover 120 may have a chamfer at a predetermined angle, so that the switch 130 can be pressed more easily.

The switch 130 is turned on by the protrusion 123 of the inner cover 120 when the inner cover 120 rotates by a predetermined angle and is turned on when the inner cover 120 returns to the normal position And a detector switch inserted in the upper portion of the main body 110 and electrically connected to the controller 140 to be described later.

That is, when the user operates the switch 130 to rotate the inner cover 120 to insert the plug of the external device, the switch 130 may be operated to the protrusion 123 of the inner cover 120 So that the user does not need to perform a manual switch operation, thereby making it possible to improve user convenience.

Since the switch 130 is turned off when the inner cover 120 returns to the normal position by releasing the plug of the external device, the switch 130 may be turned on when the switch 130 is turned on The standby power loss can be prevented in advance.

When the switch 130 is turned on or off, the controller 140 controls the AC inverter 10 to sense or sense a predetermined electric signal.

The controller 140 controls the AC inverter 10. When the switch 130 is turned on, the AC inverter 10 controls the relay of the AC inverter 10, 110 to the plug-in terminal 112. The plug-

Also, when the switch is turned off, the control unit stops operation of the AC inverter 10 to prevent AC power from being applied to the plug connection terminal 112.

The control unit 140 may be implemented as an MCU mounted on the AC inverter 10 or a software installed on the MCU to control the AC inverter 10. In addition, the controller 140 may be provided to receive power from the battery 20 of the vehicle. Preferably, the controller 140 may receive power when the vehicle is turned on.

In particular, when the switch 130 is turned on and the AC power is supplied to the plug connection terminal 112 by the control unit 140, .

In addition, the power supply display unit 150 may be an LED installed at a predetermined position of the main body 110, but may be a display device including a liquid crystal and an OLED. That is, whether or not the power supply is turned on in the power-on display unit allows the user to more easily identify whether or not power is supplied.

Hereinafter, an operation state of the rotary socket assembly according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

5 and 6, the plug terminal guide hole 121 of the inner cover 120 and the plug terminal insertion hole 111 of the main body 110 are connected to each other before the plug of the external device is inserted. When the plug of the external device is inserted into the plug terminal guide hole 121 of the inner cover 120 and rotated by a predetermined angle, the plug terminal guide hole 121 and the plug terminal insertion hole 111 are positioned on another vertical line, Are located on the same vertical line.

At this time, the plug of the external device can be inserted into the plug terminal insertion hole 111 of the main body 110, and the switch 130 is pressed by the protrusion 123 of the inner cover 120 Turn on.

As the switch 130 is turned on, the AC inverter 10 operates under the control of the controller 140 to apply power to the plug connection terminal 112 of the main body 110, Whether or not the power supply is turned on is displayed on the power supply display unit 150. [ Further, the AC power supply is supplied from the plug connection terminal 112 to the plug of the external device.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed embodiments, but, on the contrary, is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the invention.
