[0037] Figure 1 FIG. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of a conversion interface connector provided by an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 FIG. 11 is a schematic structural diagram of a conversion interface connector provided by another embodiment of the present application; Figure 1 and Figure 2 The disconnection of the cable connecting the two male end plugs 1 in FIGS. 9 and 11 does not mean that the cable connecting the two male end plugs 1 is actually disconnected.

[0038] In this embodiment, the conversion interface connector is disposed on a horizontal plane. Both the male end plug 1 and the female end plug 2 are in a block shape, and the male end plug 1 and the female end plug 2 are inserted and stacked; wherein, the male end plug 1 is disposed below and the female end plug 2 is disposed above. Both the male end circuit board 11 and the female end circuit board 21 are horizontally disposed. The plurality of elastic probes 23 and the rotating shaft 22 are both vertically disposed. The conversion interface 3 is a single interface or a multi-in-one interface, such as a two-in-one interface, a three-in-one interface, etc., and the types of the conversion interface 3 include a USB interface, a TPYE-A interface, a TPYE-C interface, and a LIGHTNING interface, etc.

[0039] Two male plugs 1 are electrically connected through a cable, and signal transmission is carried out between the two male plugs 1.

The female plug 2 with any type of conversion interface 3 can be detachably connected to the male plug 1 to adapt to different electronic devices.

[0040] The electrically connected conductive ring 12 and multiple elastic probes 23 are used to realize signal transmission between the male plug 1 and the female plug 2. The signal to be transmitted is sent from the first female plug 2 to the first male plug 1, then transmitted from the first male plug 1 to the second male plug 1 through the cable, and then transmitted from the second male plug 1 to the second female plug 2, and finally transmitted to the electronic device.

[0041] By adjusting the relative positions of the male plug 1 and the female plug 2, the male plug 1 and the female plug 2 rotate relative to each other around the axis of the rotating shaft 22 to change the orientation of the conversion interface 3, so as to be convenient for use and adapt to different scenarios; among them, multiple elastic probes 23 slide synchronously along the circumferential direction relative to the conductive ring 12 to ensure effective signal transmission, and the rotating shaft 22 provides a stable rotation center to ensure the accurate movement trajectories of the male plug 1 and the female plug 2.

[0042] As Figures 3-9 shown, as an optional implementation manner, the female plug 2 further includes a female housing 24, a bearing 25 and an annular card 26. The inside of the female housing 24 has a female housing accommodation space; the female circuit board 21 is fixed in the female housing accommodation space, and part of the rotating shaft 22 and part of the elastic probes 23 extend out of the female housing 24; both the bearing 25 and the annular card 26 are sleeved outside the rotating shaft 22, the annular card 26 is arranged in the female housing accommodation space, and the bearing 25 is arranged outside the female housing 24. The bearing 25 and the annular card 26 form a clamping structure in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 22 to fix the relative positions of the rotating shaft 22 and the female housing 24.

[0043] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, the housing wall of the female housing 24 encloses to form a female housing accommodation space. The female housing 24 includes an upper female housing and a lower female housing. The lower female housing has a plurality of plugging columns extending upward, and the female circuit board 21 is provided with a plurality of installation through holes, which are all opened along the thickness direction of the female circuit board 21. The plurality of installation through holes are adapted to the plurality of plugging columns, so that the female circuit board 21 is inserted on the plurality of plugging columns to fix the female circuit board 21.

[0044] The top ends of the rotating shaft 22 and the elastic probe 23 are both connected to the female terminal circuit board 21, and the bottom ends of the rotating shaft 22 and the elastic probe 23 both extend out of the female terminal housing 24. The bearing 25 is annular and is arranged at the bottom of the female terminal housing 24. The annular card 26 can be arranged at the top of the rotating shaft 22, and the annular card 26 and the bearing 25 are arranged on opposite sides of the female terminal circuit board 21, wherein the annular card 26 is arranged on the top of the female terminal circuit board 21; in the vertical direction, the annular card 26 abuts against the female terminal circuit board 21, and the bearing 25 abuts against the female terminal housing 24 to form a clamping structure;

[0045] In some other embodiments, the annular card 26 can be arranged on the top of the bottom shell of the female terminal housing 24; in the vertical direction, the annular card 26 abuts against the top of the bottom shell of the female terminal housing 24, and the bearing 25 abuts against the bottom of the bottom shell of the female terminal housing 24 to form a clamping structure.

[0046] No matter how the annular card 26 and the bearing 25 are arranged, the clamping structure formed by the annular card 26 and the bearing 25 restricts the movement of the rotating shaft 22 in the vertical direction, that is, it prevents the rotating shaft 22 from moving relative to the female terminal housing 24 in the vertical direction, ensures the stability of the rotating shaft 22, and facilitates the stable connection when the male terminal plug 1 and the female terminal plug 2 are inserted.

[0047] As Figure 3 、 4 As shown in FIGS. 9, as an alternative embodiment, the rotating shaft 22 includes a first section 221, a second section 222, and a third section 223 that are connected in sequence; the second section 222, the third section 223, and a part of the first section 221 extend out of the female terminal housing 24; the first section 221 is inserted into the female terminal circuit board 21, and the third section 223 is inserted into the male terminal circuit board 11; the outer diameters of the first section 221 and the third section 223 are both smaller than the outer diameter of the second section 222; the bearing 25 is sleeved outside the first section 221 and is supported and connected to the second section 222, and the bearing 25 is clamped between the second section 222 and the female terminal housing 24.

[0048] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, the first section 221, the second section 222, and the third section 223 are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The first section 221, the second section 222, and the third section 223 are all cylindrical. The top end of the first section 221 is inserted into the female terminal circuit board 21. The bottom end of the third section 223 is inserted into the male terminal circuit board 11; the outer diameter of the second section 222 is larger than the outer diameter of the first section 221 to form a support platform. The second section 222 extends out of the female terminal housing 24, and there is a space for accommodating the bearing 25 between the second section 222 and the female terminal housing 24, so as to clamp the bearing 25 between the second section 222 and the female terminal housing 24 and provide sufficient support for the clamping structure formed by the cooperation of the bearing 25 and the annular card 26.

[0049] As Figure 5As shown, as an alternative embodiment, one side of the female end housing 24 has a groove 27 for accommodating a bearing 25; the groove 27 is recessed into the female end housing 24 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 22; the rotating shaft 22 extends out of the groove 27.

[0050] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, the bottom of the female end housing 24 has a groove 27 that is recessed upward. The groove 27 is cylindrical to fit the bearing 25, so that the bottom surface of the bearing 25 is as flush as possible with the bottom surface of the female end housing 24. The bottom surface of the female end housing 24 and the top surface of the male end housing 13 are both flat surfaces, which facilitates relative rotation between the two. The rotating shaft 22 extends from the center of the bottom of the groove 27.

[0051] As Figure 3 , 4 As shown in FIGS. 6, 8, and 9, as an alternative embodiment, an annular groove 224 is formed by the end of the first section 221 away from the second section 222 being recessed radially; an annular card 26 is clamped in the annular groove 224, and the annular card 26 protrudes radially out of the annular groove 224.

[0052] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, the top end of the first section 221 has an annular groove 224. The annular card 26 is in a non-closed annular shape and can have a certain elasticity to facilitate being snapped into the annular groove 224. The annular card 26 protrudes radially out of the annular groove 224 to form a convex portion, which is part of the aforementioned clamping structure.

[0053] As Figure 3 , 4 As shown in FIGS. 6, 9, and 10, as an alternative embodiment, the female end plug 2 further includes a bushing 28. The bushing 28 is in a columnar shape with a thinner middle and thicker ends. The bushing 28 has a hollow structure. The bushing 28 is sleeved on the outside of the first section 221 of the rotating shaft 22. The bushing 28 is arranged at the connection between the first section 221 of the rotating shaft 22 and the female end circuit board 21; the first end and the second end of the bushing 28 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the female end circuit board 21; the first end of the bushing 28 has a support ring edge 281 that extends radially outward; the female end circuit board 21 and the annular card 26 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the support ring edge 281; the female end circuit board 21 is supported and connected to the support ring edge 281, and the support ring edge 281 is supported and connected to the annular card 26; the bearing 25 and the annular card 26 are arranged on opposite sides of the female end circuit board 21.

[0054] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, the female end circuit board 21 is provided with a female end shaft hole that penetrates up and down. The first section 221 of the rotating shaft 22 passes through the female end shaft hole, and the shaft sleeve 28 is disposed between the female end shaft hole and the rotating shaft 22. The shaft sleeve 28 has elasticity and can be deformed. The first end of the shaft sleeve 28 is the top end, and the second end of the shaft sleeve 28 is the bottom end; the outer diameters of both the first end and the second end of the shaft sleeve 28 are greater than the inner diameter of the female end shaft hole, and the first end and the second end of the shaft sleeve 28 are respectively located on opposite sides of the female end circuit board 21. The middle part of the shaft sleeve 28 is located within the female end shaft hole.

[0055] The annular card 26, the support ring edge 281, and the female end circuit board 21 are sequentially arranged from top to bottom and form a stable support relationship to limit the downward movement of the rotating shaft 22. The shaft sleeve 28 can reduce the friction between the rotating shaft 22 and the female end circuit board 21, facilitate relative rotation while minimizing the wear of the rotating shaft 22 and the female end circuit board 21, and ensure the effective service life of the components.

[0056] As Figure 10 shown, as an alternative embodiment, the shaft sleeve 28 includes a plurality of elastic arms 282 that are circumferentially spaced apart. The plurality of elastic arms 282 surround and form the sleeve wall of the shaft sleeve 28, and the plurality of elastic arms 282 are all bent inward.

[0057] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, the fact that the plurality of elastic arms 282 are all bent inward enables the elastic arms 282 to clamp the rotating shaft 22, and the elastic arms 282 with a curvature can also fill the gap between the rotating shaft 22 and the female end shaft hole, avoiding the deviation of the rotating shaft 22 and reducing the rotation texture.

[0058] As Figure 10 shown, as an alternative embodiment, the opposite ends of the shaft sleeve 28 are non-closed rings, and the non-closed portions at the opposite ends of the shaft sleeve 28 correspond to the intervals between the same adjacent two elastic arms 282, so that the shaft sleeve 28 is in the shape of a non-closed column.

[0059] Adopting the above solution, the shaft sleeve 28 has a gap extending in the up and down direction. When sleeved outside the rotating shaft 22, the gap provides a deformation space for the shaft sleeve 28. The deformation of the shaft sleeve 28 can automatically compensate for the assembly tolerance or slight deformation between the rotating shaft 22 and the female end shaft hole, ensure a tight fit, and improve the stability of the connection.

[0060] As Figures 1-4 and shown in 11, as an alternative embodiment, the male end plug 1 further includes a male end housing 13, and the male end housing 13 has a male housing accommodation space inside; the male end circuit board 11 is fixed within the male housing accommodation space; the housing wall of the male end housing 13 is provided with a jack 14 communicating with the male housing accommodation space and the external environment; the conductive ring 12 faces the jack 14.

[0061] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, a male housing accommodation space is formed by surrounding the housing wall of the male end housing 13. The male end housing 13 includes an upper male housing and a lower male housing. The lower male housing has a plurality of plug-in posts extending upward. The male end circuit board 11 is provided with a plurality of mounting through holes, and the plurality of mounting through holes are all opened along the thickness direction of the male end circuit board 11. The plurality of mounting through holes are adapted to the plurality of male connection posts, so that the male end circuit board 11 is inserted on the plurality of plug-in posts to fix the male end circuit board 11.

[0062] The top shell of the upper male housing, that is, the top shell of the male end housing 13, is provided with a circular jack 14. The rotating shaft 22 and the elastic probe 23 pass through the jack 14. During the relative rotation stage of the male end plug 1 and the female end plug 2 around the axis of the rotating shaft 22, the rotating shaft 22 rotates around its own axis in the jack 14, and the plurality of elastic probes 23 rotate circumferentially in the jack 14. The jack 14 provides sufficient space for the rotation of the rotating shaft 22 and the elastic probe 23.

[0063] As Figure 3 、 5 As shown in FIGS. 10 and 11, as an alternative embodiment, the male end plug 1 further includes two male end magnetic members 15, and the two male end magnetic members 15 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the jack 14; the female end plug 2 further includes two female end magnetic members 29, and the two female end magnetic members 29 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the groove 27; the relative positions of the male end plug 1 and the female end plug 2 are fixed by magnetic attraction between the female end magnetic member 29 and the male end magnetic member 15.

[0064] Based on the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, two first magnetic member mounting holes communicating with the male housing accommodation space and the outside are opened at the bottom of the male end housing 13, and the first magnetic member mounting holes are used for assembling the male end magnetic members 15. The two first magnetic member mounting holes are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the jack 14, that is, the two first magnetic member mounting holes and the jack 14 are distributed on a straight line.

[0065] Two second magnetic member mounting holes communicating with the female housing accommodation space and the outside are opened at the bottom of the female end housing 24, and the second magnetic member mounting holes are used for assembling the female end magnetic members 29. The two second magnetic member mounting holes are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the groove 27, that is, the two second magnetic member mounting holes and the groove 27 are distributed on a straight line.

[0066] When any one of the first magnetic members is magnetically attracted to the corresponding second magnetic member, the male end plug 1 and the female end plug 2 are kept relatively fixed; if the circuit board and the conversion interface 3 are directly connected, then the orientation of the conversion interface 3 is also relatively fixed; if the circuit board and the conversion interface 3 are connected by a cable, then the orientation of the cable is also relatively fixed.

[0067] The male plug 1 and the female plug 2 rotate 180 degrees relative to the axis of the rotating shaft 22, and then the male plug 1 and the female plug 2 remain relatively fixed again; correspondingly, the orientation of the conversion interface 3 and / or the cable also rotates 180 degrees to stably rotate the orientation of the conversion interface 3 and / or the cable by a specified angle.
