Description

The present invention relates to an electrical outlet device.

As an example of an electrical outlet that can be installed in a kitchen with a counter, there is known an outlet that is installed directly under the counter at the front of the kitchen (the side facing the users who use the kitchen) (see, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2).
In such kitchens, when using electrical appliances such as mixers on the counter, it is convenient to use the outlets provided directly below the counter.

JP 2016-171838 A JP 2005-224251 A

When using an electrical appliance on a counter, if you use an outlet under the counter at the front of the kitchen, the distance from the appliance to the outlet is often shorter than when using an outlet installed in a wall or other location, so there tends to be more slack in the cord of the appliance.
If a storage unit with a door is provided under the kitchen counter to the side of an electrical outlet, there is a risk that the cords of electrical appliances will extend to the side and get caught in the door.

The present invention aims to provide an outlet device that prevents a cord connected to a plug inserted into an outlet from extending out to the side.

To achieve the above object, the outlet device of the present invention is characterized in that, in an outlet device having an outlet, it has a cord locking part capable of locking a cord connected to a plug inserted into the outlet, and the cord locking part is provided on the upper part of the outlet.

In the present invention, the cord retaining portion is provided at the top of the outlet, so that the cord connected to the plug inserted into the outlet is retained at the top of the outlet, preventing the cord from extending out to the side.

Furthermore, in the outlet device according to the present invention, a plurality of the outlets may be provided lined up in the vertical direction, and the cord hook may be provided above the uppermost outlet.
In this way, by arranging the multiple outlets in a vertical line, the width of the area in which the multiple outlets are installed can be reduced, and since the cords connected to the plugs inserted into each of the multiple outlets are locked at the top of the topmost outlet, the cords can be prevented from extending out to the side. Also, since multiple cords are locked at one cord locking portion, the structure can be simpler than when multiple cord locking portions are provided.

Furthermore, in the outlet device according to the present invention, a plurality of the outlets may be provided lined up in the vertical direction, and the cord hooking portion may be provided at an upper portion of each of the plurality of outlets.
In this way, by arranging multiple outlets in a vertical line, the width of the area in which the multiple outlets are installed can be reduced, and the cords connected to the plugs inserted into each of the multiple outlets are engaged at the top of the outlet, preventing the cords from extending out to the side.

In addition, in the outlet device of the present invention, the cord locking portion may have a cord hooking portion that protrudes upward and around which the cord is hooked, and a cord slip-out prevention portion provided to the side or above the cord hooking portion.
With this configuration, the cord locked in the cord locking portion can be prevented from coming loose.

In addition, in the outlet device of the present invention, the cord locking portion has a cord placement space formed therein in which the cord can be placed, and a partition portion separating the cord placement space from the outside of the cord locking portion, and the partition portion has a cut-out portion formed therein and is configured to be elastically deformable, and may elastically deform to open the cut-out portion and connect the cord placement space to the cord locking portion.
With this configuration, the cord can be easily attached to and detached from the cord anchoring portion by elastically deforming the partition portion.

In addition, in the outlet device of the present invention, the outlet is configured to be insertable diagonally upwards, gradually moving upward from the front side toward the back side, and may have a visor portion that protrudes from the top of the outlet further forward than the outlet.
With this configuration, the eaves can prevent water from getting onto the outlet. For example, when the outlet device is attached to a kitchen counter or a washbasin, the eaves can prevent water from getting onto the outlet.

The outlet device according to the present invention may further comprise an upper gasket provided along an upper edge of the outlet device and capable of closing a gap between the outlet device and an upper object installed above.
In this way, by being able to close the gap between the outlet device and the upper installation object placed above the outlet, it is possible to prevent water or dust from entering the gap between the outlet device and the upper installation object.

The outlet device according to the present invention may further comprise a lower gasket provided along a lower edge of the outlet device and capable of closing a gap between the outlet device and an object installed below.
In this way, by blocking the gap between the outlet device and the lower installation object placed below the outlet, it is possible to prevent water or dust from entering the gap between the outlet device and the lower installation object.

This invention makes it possible to prevent the cord from extending to the side.

The first base portion 627a, the second base portion 627b and the pair of third base portions 627c, 627c are arranged such that their upper surfaces are continuously flush with each other to form a horizontal plane.
The front surface of the base 627 (the front surface of the first base portion 627a) is disposed so as to be a vertical surface.
In this embodiment, an upper gasket 44E protruding upward from the rear edge of the second base portion 627b is provided integrally with the base portion 627.

16 and 19, the protrusion 628 protrudes forward from the front surface of the first base portion 627a. The protrusion 628 is disposed above the eaves upper plate 431 of the upper eaves portion 43 and between the pair of cord locking side plates 626, 626. The protrusion 628 is spaced apart from the upper surface of the eaves upper plate 431 of the upper eaves portion 43 and the inner surfaces (facing surfaces) of each of the pair of cord locking side plates 626, 626.
The front end of the protrusion 628 is disposed directly above the front end of the eaves upper plate portion 431 of the upper eaves portion 43 .

As shown in Figures 16 to 18, the upper surface 628c of the protrusion 628 is formed as an inclined surface that gradually slopes downward from the base end side toward the tip end side in the protrusion direction (from the rear side to the front side). The inclination of the upper surface 628c of the protrusion 628 is approximately the same as the inclination of the upper surface of the eaves upper plate portion 431, and the upper surface 628c of the protrusion 628 and the upper surface of the eaves upper plate portion 431 are arranged parallel to each other. In addition, the upper surface 628c of the protrusion 628 is located on the same plane as the upper edges of the pair of cord retaining side plates 626.

The lower surface 628d of the protrusion 628 is formed as an inclined surface that gradually slopes downward from the base end side toward the tip end side in the protrusion direction. The inclination of the lower surface 628d of the protrusion 628 is gentler than the upper surface of the eaves upper plate portion 431. The protrusion 628 has a tapered shape in which the vertical dimension gradually decreases from the base end side toward the tip end side in the protrusion direction when viewed from the left and right. Therefore, the vertical distance between the lower surface 628d of the protrusion 628 and the upper surface of the eaves upper plate portion 431 gradually increases from the base end side toward the tip end side in the protrusion direction.

The protrusion 628 has a front portion 628a, which is the tip side portion, that is longer in the left-right direction than the rear portion 628b, which is the base end side, and protrudes further in the left-right direction than the rear portion 628b, so that the shape in a plan view is T-shaped. The front portion 628a of the protrusion 628 is the wide portion 628a, and the rear portion 628b is the narrow portion 628b.

In the cord locking member 625, a first space 629a is formed on both left and right sides of the narrow portion 628b, sandwiched from the front and rear between the base 627 and the wide portion 628a, a second space 629b is formed continuing from the lower side of the first space 629a, sandwiched from above and below between the protrusion 628 and the eaves upper plate portion 431 of the upper eaves portion 43, and a third space 629c is formed continuing from the outside in the left and right directions of the first space 629a and the second space 629b, sandwiched from the left and right between the protrusion 628 and the cord locking side plate portion 626. The third space 629c is open forward.
The first space 629a and the second space 629b form a cord placement space 621E in which a cord is placed, and the third space 629c forms a passage through which the cord passes when it is inserted into or removed from the cord placement space 621E.

To engage a cord with the cord engaging portion 62E, the cord connected to the plug 15 inserted into the outlet 41 is extended upward from the plug 15, and in this state the cord is inserted from the front into one of the third spaces 629c of the cord engaging member 625, and then the cord is moved rearward and toward the center in the left-right direction until it is positioned in the cord placement space 621E.
Since the wide portion 628a of the protrusion 628 is positioned in front of the portion of the cord that is positioned in the first space 629a of the cord locking member 625, the cord is structured to be less likely to slip out of the cord placement space 621E to the front.
