Abstract
A socket structure includes a casing, a switch, a linkage, a first hook, a gear, a rotating arm, and a second hook. The switch is exposed from the casing and disposed movably to the casing along a first direction or a second direction. The linkage is located in the casing and linked to the switch, and has a rack. The first hook is exposed from the casing and linked to the linkage. The gear is located in the casing and engages with the rack. The rotating arm having one end pivotally connected to the gear is located in the casing. The second hook is exposed from the casing and linked to the other end of the rotating arm. When the switch moves along the first direction, the linkage drives the first hook to move, the gear drives the rotating arm, and the second hook moves to an unlocked position.
