Abstract

A plug assembly includes an accepting assembly and a power plug which is detachably inserted into the accepting assembly. The power plug includes a first housing, a rotating plug assembly, two conductive connecting blades, a transmission mechanism, and a locking mechanism. The accepting assembly includes a charger cover, two conductive poles, and a buckling mechanism received in the charger cover. The rotating plug assembly drives the transmission mechanism to move down to insert into the charger cover, drives the buckling block to move up to insert into the first housing, and drives locking blocks to move closer and lock with the buckling block; and in the retracted state, the rotating plug assembly drives the transmission mechanism to move up, drives the locking blocks to move further away from each other, such that the locking blocks release the buckling block.
