Power plug
First Claim
1. A power plug, comprising:
- a fixed unit at which prongs inserted into a receptacle are fixed and a connection terminal connected to the prongs is installed at the upper surface thereof;
a rotational unit rotationally arranged on the upper surface of the fixed unit and having an input terminal connected to a power supply line at the bottom surface;
a hinge shaft fixed to the fixed unit, penetrating the rotational unit and supporting the rotational unit rotationally;
an elastic member installed at the outer circumference of the hinge shaft to provide an elastic force for making the connection terminal and the input terminal maintain a contact state;
a power on/off means formed between the fixed unit and the rotational unit to transmit or cut off power supply to a load device according to rotation of the rotational unit; and
a locking means installed at the upper portion of the rotational unit to lock the rotation of the rotational unit.

Abstract
In a power plug capable of preventing twists of a power supply line and turning on/off power supplied to a load device according to a rotation of a rotational unit by dividing the power plug itself into a fixed unit and the rotational unit, the power plug includes the fixed unit at which prongs and a connection terminal connected to the prongs are installed, a rotational unit rotationally installed to the upper portion of the fixed unit and supplying power to the load device, a power on/off unit placed between the fixed unit and the rotational unit and connecting/disconnecting a power supply to the load device according to the rotation of the rotational unit, and a locking unit installed to the upper portion of the rotational unit and locking the rotation of the rotational unit.
