Abstract
A foldable power supply device includes a first socket, a second socket, and a pivoting unit. The first socket has multiple sets of first plugging holes and first conductive plates. The second socket has multiple sets of second plugging holes and second conductive plates. The pivoting unit is located between the first socket and the second socket. The direction of the rotation shaft of the pivoting unit is not parallel to the plugging direction of the first plugging holes and the second plugging holes. Thereby, the foldable power supply device can be opened into a block type to lower its height and be used as a multi-hole type. Alternatively, the device can also be folded to become a vertical type so that one side of the device can align with the wall, and the plugs or the transformers can be plugged into the device in two face-to-face directions.
