[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cable interfaces, and in particular to a waterproof and anti-reverse insertion TYPE-C interface component. Background Art

[0002] Currently, the TYPE-C cables on the market generally have standard interfaces and can be inserted in either direction. There may be no problem with general charging functions, but once data communication is required, the quality of TYPE-C cables made by different manufacturers is often uneven, resulting in charging or communication not being able to be used normally, especially in some special application scenarios and environments, such as assembly lines, various processing equipment, and other scenes with high vibration and humidity.

[0003] Ordinary TYPE-C connectors can easily loosen or fall off in a vibrating environment, resulting in power failure and communication failure. Ordinary TYPE-C cables cannot be used in environments with high humidity or waterproof requirements, especially for some equipment installed at high altitudes. Repair and replacement are very inconvenient and even require professional practitioners to maintain, resulting in increased personnel costs and inconvenience in subsequent maintenance.

Therefore, the following specific implementation modes and the accompanying drawings are only exemplary descriptions of the technical solution of the present invention, and should not be regarded as the entirety of the present invention or as a limitation or restriction to the technical solution of the present invention.

[0020] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0021] Embodiment 1, as Figure 1-3 As shown, a waterproof and anti-reverse insertion TYPE-C interface assembly includes a socket interface 1 and a cable connector 2, both of which are parts of the TYPE-C cable interface, the socket interface 1 is used as a TYPE-C cable connector, and the cable connector 2 is used as an insert. The socket interface 1 is provided with a socket 13, and the cable connector 2 is provided with a plug 23 that matches the socket 13. After the plug 23 is inserted into the socket 13, charging or communication is performed.

[0022] The socket interface 1 is provided with a groove 12 surrounding the socket 13, and a positioning block 14 is provided outside the groove 12. As a preferred solution, the positioning block 14 is a convex block structure and is arranged in the middle of the top of the groove 12. The positioning block 14 can be a trapezoidal structure, also known as a rectangle, and its height is 1 / 4 to 1 / 5 of the height of the groove 12.

[0023] The tail of the plug 23 is provided with a stopper 22 which matches the groove 12, and a positioning groove 24 which matches the positioning block 14 is opened on the stopper 22. A soft gasket 3 is mounted on the stopper 22. The socket interface 1 is threadedly connected to the cable connector 2 through a patterned screw 27, wherein the model of the patterned screw 27 is an M2.5 screw.

[0024] During implementation, the soft gasket 3 is put on the cable connector 2 along the direction of the notch, and the cable connector 2 with the soft gasket 3 is inserted into the socket interface 1 along the direction of the notch, so that the positioning groove 24 on the cable connector 2 coincides with the positioning block 14 on the socket interface 1, and the two patterned screws 27 are tightened and fixed in the mounting holes on the socket interface 1, and the soft gasket 3 is pressed to achieve a sealing and waterproof effect.

[0025] Embodiment 2 is based on the scheme of Embodiment 1, wherein the socket interface 1 includes an outer end shell 11, the groove 12 is located in the middle of the outer end shell 11, and threaded holes are provided on both sides of the outer end shell 11, and the threaded holes are located on both sides of the groove 12. When the socket interface 1 is threadedly connected to the cable connector 2 through the patterned screw 27, the patterned screw 27 and the screw head will be screwed into the threaded hole.

[0026] In addition, a communication charging device 15 is connected to the rear of the outer shell 11. The communication charging device 15 can be a charger, a computer host, a data collector, an online detection device, or other devices.

[0027] Among them, the cable connector 2 includes a connector outer body 21, two patterned screws 27 are provided and are threadedly connected to both sides of the connector outer body 21, the stopper 22 is installed on the mounting end surface of the connector outer body 21, and the tail of the connector outer body 21 is connected to the cable 26 through the buffer connector 25. The outer periphery of the buffer connector 25 is provided with intermittent concave patterns. When the cable 26 is bent, the buffer connector 25 provides a transfer torque to prevent the cable 26 from breaking.

[0028] Example 2, based on the solution of Example 1, please refer to Figure 4 The soft gasket 3 is a silicone pad with certain pressure bearing performance. As a preferred solution, the outer periphery of the soft gasket 3 is provided with an annular convex structure, and when squeezed, the annular convex will further play a sealing and waterproof effect.

[0029] The middle of the soft gasket 3 is provided with an escape groove 31 that matches the stopper 22 and is used to be sleeved on the stopper 22. The outer periphery of the escape groove 31 is provided with abutment portions 32 that match the positioning groove 24 to seal the outer periphery of the stopper 22. In addition, through holes 33 for the patterned screw 27 to penetrate are provided on both sides of the escape groove 31. When the socket interface 1 is threadedly connected with the cable connector 2 through the patterned screw 27, the through holes 33 will penetrate.

[0030] Based on Examples 1-3, during implementation, the present invention designs a groove 12 at the TYPE-C cable connector position, and sets a positioning block 14 in the groove 12, adds a stop block 22 at the corresponding structural member position where the cable is inserted, and sets a positioning groove 24 on the stop block 22, so that the TYPE-C cable can only be inserted in one direction when inserted into the TYPE-C interface. When reversely inserted, the positioning block 14 of the socket interface 1 blocks the TYPE-C cable from being inserted into the positioning groove 24.

[0031] Install a silicone pad at the TYPE-C cable connector, and install two M2.5 screws on the TYPE-C cable connector. Embed two M2.5 nuts on the anti-reverse insertion structure. Insert the TYPE-C cable into the TYPE-C interface normally, tighten the two M2.5 screws, and fix the TYPE-C cable to the anti-reverse insertion structure by squeezing the silicone pad to achieve a waterproof fixation effect.

[0032] The present invention adopts a structural design and an anti-reverse insertion method so that ordinary TYPE-C cables cannot be inserted into the TYPE-C interface. Only special TYPE-C cables can be used. After the cables are inserted tightly, the silicone pads on the cables are tightened by screws to meet the waterproof requirements. The present invention is simple and convenient to operate. The TYPE-C cables are fixed safely and securely, not easy to loosen and fall off, and can meet the waterproof requirements to avoid short circuit damage to the equipment due to water vapor.

[0033] The specific implementation methods described above further illustrate the objectives, technical solutions and beneficial effects of the present invention in detail. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific implementation method of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
