Abstract

An improved magnetic socket structure includes: a body (11), having a force exerted end (12) and an acting end (14); a guide element (21) for receiving the force exerted end (12) of the body (11), and including a guide penetrating hole (22); a magnetic module (31), having a position limit portion (33) at an end and a magnetic portion at another end, wherein the position limit portion (33) is embedded into the guide penetrating hole (22) of the guide element (21), and the external periphery of the position limit portion (33) is matched precisely with the hole diameter of the guide penetrating hole (22), such that the position limit portion (33) can be moved linearly along the guide penetrating hole (22), and an elastic element (36) is installed between the magnetic portion and the guide element (21), such that if a force is exerted onto the magnetic module (31), the guide penetrating hole (22) will guide the position limit portion (33) to move along a sliding path to assure that the magnetic module (31) will not deviated from a moving path when a force is exerted onto the position limit portion (33).
