Socket with warning function

The present invention relates to a socket, and more particularly to a socket having a warning function, so that when the current of the socket is overloaded, a warning signal can be issued, and the user can remotely control the outlet to be in an open state through a mobile device.

According to the development of today's technology, a variety of electrical appliances have emerged, so that the safety of electrical appliances in various places has always been a topic of concern, if the socket of electrical appliances is short-circuited or overloaded When the current of the socket wire is too large, the wire is burnt and the fire is harmful to the user's life safety.

However, looking at the current electrical appliance sockets, they do not have the function of reminding, the user can not immediately know whether the socket current is overloaded, therefore, often cause the above-mentioned regrets to occur, therefore, how to propose an improved socket to solve The shortcomings of the above conventional sockets to ensure the safety of the user's use are problems that the relevant industry must solve.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a socket with a warning function. When the current of the socket is overloaded, it can send a warning signal to remind the user, and the user can remotely control the outlet to be in an open state through a mobile device.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a socket with a warning function, comprising: a socket body electrically connected to an external power source, and a circuit switch for controlling the external power source to be connected to the socket body; a power socket The module is disposed on the socket body and electrically connected to the circuit switch, and the power socket module is provided with a plurality of power sockets for respectively plugging a plug of an electric appliance; a current warning device is disposed at the socket The main body has a current sensing module and a warning component, wherein the current sensing module is electrically connected to the power socket module and the warning component, and the current sensing module detects the current value of the power socket module. And the warning component sends a warning signal according to the current value; and a remote control module is disposed on the socket body, and is electrically connected to the current sensing module and the power socket module, respectively, and the remote control module It can be connected to a mobile device remotely; when the current value is overloaded, the remote control module can send an overload signal to the mobile device, and the mobile device can be remotely System module controls the switching circuit between the electrical outlet and the module form an off state.

The warning component is an LED illuminating component and is exposed to the socket body.

When the current value is less than 10 amps, the warning signal is green light. When the current value is between 10 and 15 amps, the warning signal is yellow, and when the current value is greater than 15 amps, the warning signal is red.

With the above, one of the functions of the present invention can be achieved. The user can judge whether the current value of the power socket module is overloaded by the color change of the warning signal, and if the overload state is present (the warning signal is red) Light), the user can choose to directly turn off the circuit switch, make the power socket module and the external power supply open, or choose to turn off the electrical appliances on the socket, so that the current value of the power socket module can be restored to a safe state. In this way, it is possible to prevent the socket from being burnt or fire due to current overload.

By the above, the creation can achieve the second effect. When the current value is overloaded, the remote control module can send an overload signal to the user's mobile device, if the user is not in the vicinity of the site where the socket is located. The user only needs to use the mobile device to remotely control the power socket module and the external power supply to be in an open state, which is very convenient.

Light or red light, in which the warning signal is green when the current value is less than 10 amps, the warning signal is yellow when the current value is between 10 and 15 amps, and the warning signal is presented when the current value is greater than 15 amps. Red light.

A remote control module 40 is disposed in the socket body 10 and electrically connected to the current sensing module 31 and the power socket module 20, respectively, and the remote control module 40 can be connected to a remote end of a mobile device 80, such as As shown in FIG. 4, the remote control module 40 is remotely coupled to the mobile device 80 by using one of a Bluetooth signal, a radio frequency, an infrared signal, a near field communication technology, or a wireless network. When the current value of the power socket module 20 is overloaded, the remote control module 40 can send an overload signal 81 to the mobile device 80, as shown in FIG. 5, and the mobile device 80 can control the power supply by the remote control module 40. The socket module 20 and the circuit switch 12 are in an open state.

The user inserts the plug 71 of each electric appliance 70 into the socket 100 of the present invention, and turns on the circuit switch 12 so that the user can start the operation of the electric appliance 70, and the user can issue the color change of the warning signal by the warning component 32. Instantly determine whether the current value of the power socket module 20 is overloaded. If the warning signal is green, the current value of the meter is in the "safe" range. If the warning signal is yellow, the current value is between Range, and if the warning signal is red, the meter current value is an overload condition in the "dangerous" range.

When the current value is in the "dangerous" range, the user can choose to directly close the circuit switch 12, disconnect the power socket module 20 from the external power source 60, or select the electrical appliance 70 on the upper portion of the socket 100. When it is turned off, the current value of the power socket module 20 can be restored to a safe state, thereby preventing the socket 100 from being burned or fired due to current overload.

In addition, if the current value is in an overload condition, the remote control module 40 can send an overload signal 81 to the user's mobile device 80, as shown in FIG. 5, therefore, if the user is not at the site where the socket 100 is located. When it is around, the user only needs to remotely control the power socket module 20 and the external power source 60 to be in an open state through the mobile device 80, so as to prevent the current overload of the socket 100 and cause danger, which is very convenient.

Furthermore, the present invention further has an automatic power-off device 50. If the user does not notice the warning signal of the warning component 32 and does not carry the mobile device 80, the automatic power-off device 50 can control the switching valve 52 to be in an open state. In order to prevent the external power source 60 from being electrically connected to the power socket module 20, the current overload of the socket 100 can be prevented. After that, if the user needs to use the socket 100 again, the reset button 53 must be pressed again to return the switch valve 52 to the conductive state, so that the external power source 60 can be re-conducted to the power socket module 20 so as to be inserted into the socket.
