This creation relates to sockets, and particularly to a socket that can rotate 360 degrees.

Generally, the power sockets installed on the walls of buildings have certain positions and the number of sockets. However, with the improvement of living standards, more and more electrical appliances are used, often because the sockets of the power sockets are fully inserted. If the plugs of various electrical appliances are to be plugged into the plug of another electrical appliance, an extension cord must be borrowed to solve the problem of insufficient jacks of the power socket. Since one end of the extension cord has a plug and the other end is provided with an extension cord socket, the extension cord socket has a plurality of jacks. The plugs of the power supply are plugged in to obtain electricity. In use, the multiple jacks of the general extension cord socket are all They are arranged equidistantly and set in the same direction. However, the appearance of plugs of different types of electrical products varies according to the brand's diversification. In addition, some plugs have rectifier transformers to convert the AC power of the power supply into DC power that meets the specifications. The volume shape of the plug will affect the use space of adjacent sockets.

It can be seen that if you use a plug that contains a rectifier transformer or a larger volume, when the plug is plugged into the jack of the extension cord socket, the rectifier transformer or plug will cover the adjacent jack, making the covered jack position unable to allow other electrical appliances The plug or rectifier transformer is inserted, and even the position of the electrical product is not conducive to its plug being inserted into the jack of the extension cord socket.
