Abstract

A retractable plug device includes a housing (1) and a plug unit (2). The housing (1) has a first surface (13) and a second surface (14). The first surface (13) has a first opening (16), and the second surface (14) has a second opening (17). The housing (1) has a receiving space (15) therein. The first opening (16) and the second opening (17) are respectively located at two opposite ends of the receiving space (15). The plug unit (2) includes an insulating body (21) and a plug pin (22). The plug pin (22) is pivoted to the insulating body (21) such that the plug pin (22) can be folded and unfolded in a rotatable manner. The plug unit (2) is movably disposed in the receiving space (15) of the housing (1) such that the plug unit (2) can be extended out of the first surface (13) of the housing (1) via the first opening (16), or be retracted into the receiving space (15) of the housing (1) via the first opening (16).
