Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of computing component technology, specifically to a computer interface structure. Background Technology

[0002] A computer interface is a port used to enable data exchange between a computer and the outside world. The most common computer interface is USB. Due to its high-quality and stable transmission capabilities, USB is widely used in computers and related electronic devices.

[0003] Most existing USB interfaces are soldered onto the circuit board. The USB interface is exposed through the opening in the computer casing for easy user access. Because the USB interface is exposed, dust easily accumulates inside. Current dust prevention mainly relies on plugs, which are easily lost during use. Users may also forget to plug the USB port with the plugs to prevent dust. Accidentally touching the plug or USB flash drive can also loosen the USB interface from the circuit board and damage the USB interface on the host.

[0004] Secondly, when a computer headphone is plugged into a USB port, if the user stands up and walks around without removing the headphones, the headphone port may be pulled, potentially damaging the circuitry of the interface. Summary of the Invention

[0033] This invention provides a computer interface structure, such as... Figure 1-10 As shown, the device includes an outer casing 1 with a through-hole 11. A door panel 2 is located on the front of the outer casing 1 opposite to the door hole 11, and a sliding sleeve 3 is located on the back of the outer casing 1 opposite to the door hole 11. The door panel 2 has holes corresponding to the sliding sleeve 3. A support 4 is connected to the rear side of the sliding sleeve 3, and a base 5 is hinged to the rear side of the support 4. A conductive sheet 41 is fixedly installed at the front end of the support 4, and the conductive sheet 41 is connected to the headphone jack.

[0034] The conductive sheet 41 extends into the sliding sleeve 3, and the data cable 42 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the support 4. The data cable 42 is electrically connected to the conductive sheet 41.

[0035] There is a movable gap between the placement hole 11 and the sliding sleeve 3, which allows the sliding sleeve 3 to move left and right. Two sliding rods 21 are symmetrically welded on the back of the door panel 2, and the sliding sleeve 3 is located between the two sliding rods 21. A sliding groove 31 is provided on the side of the sliding sleeve 3, and the sliding rods 21 and the sliding groove 31 slide in fit. A thick spring 23 is welded to the end of the sliding rod 21, and the thick spring 23 is located in the sliding groove 31.

[0036] The sliding rod 21 engages with the sliding groove 31, allowing the sliding sleeve 3 to slide forward a certain distance. The sliding sleeve 3, the support 4, and the conductive sheet 41 are assembled to form a USB interface.

[0037] Because the support 4 is hinged to the base 5, the support 4 can rotate back and forth. When a person stands up, the headphone jack is pulled, causing the headphone jack to pull the sliding sleeve 3. The sliding sleeve 3 moves forward, extending from the hole in the door panel 2 to the outside of the outer shell 1. The movement of the sliding sleeve 3 compresses the thick spring 23, and the deformation of the thick spring 23 cushions the sliding sleeve 3. At the same time, the headphone jack causes the sliding sleeve 3 to deflect to the left or right, and the sliding sleeve 3 carries the support 4 to deflect in the direction of the pull. By making the entire USB interface movable, the circuitry is prevented from being broken due to hard pulling, thus protecting the circuit board and wiring.

[0038] Combined with appendix Figure 6 , 8A ligament 43 is connected to the side of the support 4, and the end of the ligament 43 away from the support 4 is connected to the sliding sleeve 3. The ligament 43 is made of elastic rubber. Multiple T-shaped rods 44 are welded to the front of the support 4, and these T-shaped rods 44 are arranged around the conductive sheet 41. A transverse groove 32 is formed inside the sliding sleeve 3, and the end of the conductive sheet 41 slides into the transverse groove 32. The ligament 43 provides a reaction force against the outward movement of the support 4, preventing it from moving outward. The T-shaped rods 44 cooperate with the transverse groove 32 to prevent the sliding sleeve 3 from separating from the connecting seat 4.

[0039] A support rod 12 is welded to the back of the outer casing 1. The support rod 12 is located directly below the sliding sleeve 3. The end of the support rod 12 away from the outer casing 1 is welded to the bottom of the base 5. A fan 13 is fixedly installed on the back of the outer casing 1. One side of the fan 13 is open to the outside, and a transparent baffle 9 is fixedly embedded on the other side of the fan 13. A flexible hose 33 is fixedly installed on the fan 13, and the flexible hose 33 passes through the top of the sliding sleeve 3. The flexible hose 33 connects the fan 13 to the internal space of the sliding sleeve 3, so that when the fan 13 rotates, air is sent into the sliding sleeve 3 to blow out dust.

[0040] An alarm 14 is symmetrically fixed on the back of the housing 1 and on both sides of the placement hole 11. The slide bar 21 is aligned with the alarm 14, and the trigger switch of the alarm 14 faces the slide bar 21. When the slide sleeve 3 is excessively offset, the slide bar 21 contacts the switch of the alarm 14, causing the alarm 14 to activate, thereby serving as an alert.

[0041] It also includes connecting block 6, connecting block 7, and hinge block 8. Connecting block 6 is welded to the rear end of support 4, connecting block 7 is welded to the front end of base 5, and connecting block 6 and connecting block 7 are hinged together by hinge block 8. A slider 61 is welded to the bottom of connecting block 6, and arc-shaped grooves 71 adapted to slider 61 are symmetrically opened on the top of connecting block 7.

[0042] The slider 61 moves within the arc-shaped groove 71, which is arranged concentrically with the hinge block 8. Thin springs 72 are welded to both sides of the slider 61 and are embedded in the arc-shaped groove 71.

[0043] When the user removes the headphones, relieving the headphone jack of its tension, the support 4 is corrected back to its original position via the interaction of the slider 61, the thin spring 72, and the arc-shaped groove 71. This serves to correct the misalignment.

[0044] The slide rod 21 has a recess 22 on its body, and clamping rods 24 are provided on both the upper and lower sides of the recess 22. The clamping rods 24 are arranged laterally, and the ends of the clamping rods 24 are inserted into the sliding sleeve 3. The sliding sleeve 3 has insertion holes 34 on its side that are adapted to the clamping rods 24. The clamping rods 24 are used to strengthen the firmness between the slide rod 21 and the sliding sleeve 3.

[0045] The movable distance between the outer shell 1 and the sliding sleeve 3 is 1cm.

[0046] A clamp 51 is fixedly installed on the side of the base 5. The clamp 51 is used to fix the data cable 42.

[0047] It also includes screws, which pass through the end of the ligament 43 and are screwed into the sleeve 3 and the support 4. The sides of the sleeve 3 and the support 4 have screw holes 10 that are compatible with the screws.

[0048] A groove 25 is formed on one side of the inner wall of the two holes in the door panel. A closing door 26 is slidably fitted inside the groove 25. Multiple small springs 27 are welded to one end of the closing door 26, and the other end of the closing door 26 extends outside the groove 25 and is welded with a flange 261. The flange 261 is convenient for moving the closing door 26.

[0049] The end of the small spring 27 away from the sealing door 26 is welded to the inner wall of the groove 25. When the headphone jack is unplugged from the USB port, the sealing door 26, under the action of the small spring 27, closes the hole in the door panel 2, thereby preventing dust from entering the sliding sleeve 3.

[0050] In summary, this computer interface structure comprises a door panel 2, a sliding sleeve 3, a support 4, a base 5, and a conductive sheet 41, forming a USB interface. A movable gap is established between the outer casing 1 and the sliding sleeve 3. The sliding rod 21, thick spring 23, and ligament 43 work together to create a counter-force on the sliding sleeve 3 when it is pulled. The support 4 and base 5 are hinged, allowing the sliding sleeve 3 to shift left and right. This design makes the USB interface movable, preventing damage to the wiring between the USB interface and the circuit board caused by the user forgetting to remove their headphones when standing up and moving around. The fan 13 and flexible hose 33 work together to remove dust, and the enclosed door 26 prevents dust from entering when the USB interface is not in use.
