Anti-Loss Power Plug Lock with Integrated Hinge Cover Locking Mechanism

This technology is a storage lock featuring an integrated key or combination locking mechanism built into first and second storage covers. These covers are rotatably coupled by a hinge and form an internal storage space when closed. By placing a power plug inside and locking the covers, you can physically restrict the use of devices such as computers and game consoles.

To prevent internet and gaming addiction, using plug locks at home is recommended. However, conventional plug locks consist of separate covers and padlocks, making it inconvenient to locate the padlock every time you need to lock it. Furthermore, if a plug remains in an outlet for a long time or is left unlocked for an extended period, the separate padlock is easily misplaced.

This technology features a locking mechanism integrated into the storage cover, allowing for immediate locking without the need for a separate padlock, eliminating the risk of losing parts during long periods of disuse. The locking and storage sections rotate relative to each other, the two hinge parts are detachable, and magnets keep the sections secured, allowing for easy opening and closing to fit various plug shapes. This can be applied to managing children's PC and game console usage or preventing unauthorized use of appliances, enabling guardians to control power access with simple operation.
