A mobile socket device that can be quickly fixed and disassembled according to an embodiment of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
As shown in
Particularly, the socket 10 has a placement surface 101 and at least one power collecting surface 102a, 102b, or 102c. The placement surface 101 is provided with a clamp hole 1011, and each of the power collecting surfaces 102a, 102b, and 102c is provided with at least one set of jacks 103a and 103b. In the example shown in
Advantageously, the jacks 103a and 103b may comprise DC jacks 103a for DC output and AC jacks 103b for AC output. In the example as shown in
Understandably, the socket 10 may also be configured to be in ally other shapes, so long as it has a placement surface 101 and at least one power collecting surface 102a, 102b, or 102c, and positions for the DC jacks 103a and AC jacks 103b may also be arranged as needed.
The fixed seat 20 has a receiving surface 2011 and a mounting surface. The receiving surface 2011 is provided with a buckle 21 buckled with the clamp hole 1011, and the mounting surface is suitable for being mounted to a carrier. In the example as shown
In other words, the placement surface 101 of the socket 10 is provided with the clamp hole 1011, while the receiving surface 2011 of the fixed seat 20 is provided with the buckle 21. The buckling function between the buckle 21 and the clamp hole 1011 enables the socket 10 to be mounted and fixed to, or disassembled from the fixed seat 20. In a specific example, the buckle 21 can be made of an elastic material. When the socket 10 is being mounted to the fixed seat 20, the buckle 21 undergoes certain elastic deformation, enabling the buckle 21 to buckle into the clamp hole 1011. When the socket 10 is being removed from the fixed seat 20, the buckle 21 also undergoes certain elastic deformation, enabling the buckle 21 to detach from the clamp hole 1011.
According to the mobile socket device that can be quickly fixed and disassembled as provided in the embodiment of the present utility model, the advantages of a fixed socket and a mobile socket are both taken into account. On the one hand, the socket 10 can be fixed in any place at any time through the fixed seat 20, such as a back or side of a table, and other areas that will not affect life or work, so as to avoid accidents caused by unintentional touches and improve use security. On the other hand, the socket 10 can be removed from the fixed seat 20 and used as a mobile socket to ensure flexible use thereof. In addition, the socket 10 and the fixed scat 20 are connected by means of the buckle 21, facilitating mounting and disassembly.
In one embodiment of the present utility model as shown in
That is, the buckle 21 is slidably connected to the fixed seat 20 and can slide between the first position and the second position. At the same time, the fixed seat 20 is provided with the unlocking member, through which a user can exert a force to push the buckle 21 to slide between the first position and the second position. When the buckle 21 slides to the first position, it is buckled with the clamp hole 1011 on the socket 10. At this moment, the socket 10 can be fixed to the fixed seat 20. And when the buckle 21 slides to the second position, it detaches from the clamp hole 1011 of the socket 10. At this moment, the socket 10 can be removed from the fixed seat 20.
Thus, in a using procedure, the user can operate the unlocking member as needed to effectuate mounting and disassembly between the socket 10 and the fixed seat 20, which are simple and convenient.
As shown in
That is, in the absence of an external force, the elastic member 23 is in a first compression state to provide a thrust to the pressure button 22, such that the pressure button 22 remains in an initial position, while the buckle 21 connected to the pressure button 22 remains at the first position, i.e., the buckle 21 and the clamp hole 1011 remain buckled to each other, and the socket 10 is fixed to the fixed seat 20. When the user exerts a pressing force on the pressure button 22, as the buckle 21 is connected to the pressure button 22, the pressure button 22 pushes the buckle 21 to move to the second position (rightwards as shown in
Thus, when the socket 10 is being fixed to the fixed seat 20, the buckle 21 can always be buckled with the clamp hole 1011 under the action of the elastic member 23, thereby ensuring firmness and reliability of the fixation of the socket 10 to the fixed seat 20. When the socket 10 is to be disassembled from the fixed seat 20, it is only necessary to press the pressure button 22. The operation is rather convenient, and meanwhile, the structure is simple and compact.
In one embodiment of the present utility model, the buckle 21 has a barb portion 211. The barb portion 211 has an inclined guide surface S01 configured to guide the barb portion 211 to be buckled into the clamp hole 1011.
In a specific using procedure, when the placement surface 101 of the socket 10 moves towards the receiving surface 2011 of the fixed scat 20 (the socket 10 moves downward in the example of
As shown in
In some embodiments of the present utility model as shown in
In the example of
When the user exerts a force to press the pressure button 22, the pressure button 22 pushes the slider 24 to move rightward in a chute. Correspondingly, the buckle 21 moves rightward to the second position along with the slider 24. At this moment, the buckle 21 can be separated from the clamp hole 1011. Meanwhile, in this procedure, the elastic member 23 is compressed by the slider 24. And when the user withdraws the pressure, the elastic member 23 is reset to force the slider 24 to move leftward, thereby driving the buckle 21 to move leftward to the first position by means of the slider 24. At this moment, the buckle 21 and the clamp hole 1011 can be re-buckled.
In the present embodiment, the above structure can be used to ensure more convenient assembly, a simpler structure, and more smooth and reliable unlocking.
In one embodiment of the present utility model, two clamp holes 1011 are oppositely arranged, and two buckles 21 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the two clamp holes 1011. The two buckles 21 have opposite elastic reset directions. In the example of
In another embodiment of the present utility model as shown in
Thus, the socket 10 can be placed on the fixed seat 20 at one angle (e.g., 0 degree), and the two buckles 21 are buckled with two oppositely arranged clamp holes 1011, respectively. Meanwhile, the socket 10 can also be placed on the fixed seat 20 at another angle (90 degrees). At this moment, the two buckles 21 on the socket 10 can be buckled with the other two oppositely arranged clamp holes 1011. That is, the socket 10 can be placed on the fixed seat 20 at different angles, such that the two buckles 21 can be buckled with one pair of oppositely arranged clamp holes 1011. Thus, the mounting efficiency between the socket 10 and the fixed seat 20 can be improved. The position of the socket 10 at 90 degrees can be understood as the position of the socket 10 after 90 degrees of rotation from 0 degree along a vertical axis Z00.
It should be noted that the fixed seat 20 can be mounted to the carrier by means of a bolt, viscose bonding, or magnetic suction.
In one embodiment of the present utility model, the receiving surface 2011 is provided with a countersunk hole 2015 penetrating therethrough to the mounting surface. The countersunk hole 2015 is provided therein with a blot suitable for mounting the fixed seat 20 to the carrier. Thus, in a specific application, the blot can pass through the countersunk hole 2015 to be locked and fixed to a desktop or other carriers, the connection being firm and reliable.
In another embodiment of the present utility model, the mounting surface is provided with any one of double-sided glue, a magic sticker, and a magnetic member. In this way, in a specific application, double-sided glue, a magic sticker, or a magnetic member can be used for mounting to the desktop or other carriers, the connection being more convenient and simpler.
