ELECTRICAL OUTLET WITH DRAINING MECHANISM

摘要

An electrical outlet for receiving an electrical plug is illustrated. The electrical outlet includes a housing defining a recess for receiving the electrical plug and a closed groove in a bottom of the recess, and a draining mechanism accommodated in the housing. The draining mechanism includes a barrel, a first sliding member, and a first driver. The barrel defines a first sliding groove and a slot communicating with both the first sliding groove and the closed groove. The first sliding groove includes a first, external open end and an opposite second open end. The first sliding member includes a first rod slidably retained in the first sliding groove through the second open end. The first driver is configured to drive the first sliding member to slide along the first sliding groove for pushing liquid out of the first sliding groove through the first open end.
