Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of power cable technology, and more specifically to a computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure. Background Technology

[0002] The computer power cable is a core connecting component between the computer equipment and the power supply. Its stable operation directly ensures the normal operation of the computer.

[0003] During daily use, the connection between the plug and the power socket of a computer power cable is susceptible to accidental pulling. This pulling generates a momentary high tensile force that acts on the cable's conductors and terminals. When this momentary high tensile force exceeds the withstand limit of the copper core or terminals, the copper core may break, causing power transmission interruption. Furthermore, the plug may deform, affecting its compatibility with the power socket. Additionally, the power socket may loosen due to the pulling force, reducing connection stability. In more severe cases, the pulling force can be transmitted through the plug to the motherboard's power supply, causing irreversible damage. Such problems not only render computer equipment unusable but also increase user repair costs and may even pose safety hazards due to abnormal power supply, negatively impacting user experience and property security.

[0018] The present invention will be further described in conjunction with the following embodiments.

[0019] Depend on Figures 1 to 9 As can be seen, the computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure described in this embodiment includes a cable body 11, a male connector 1, and a female connector 2; the male connector 1 has a male socket 12 at its end; the male socket 12 has a male slot 13; the male slot 13 has a male terminal 14; the cable body 11 is connected to the male terminal 14; the female connector 2 has a female insertion cavity 21; the female insertion cavity 21 has a female terminal 22 for insertion into the male slot 13; The female connector 2 is provided with a locking bar 31 that extends and retracts along its length; the locking bar 31 is provided with a locking block 32 that extends and retracts along its width; the male connector 1 is provided with a locking channel 4 along its length; the locking bar 31 is movably disposed in the locking channel 4; the locking channel 4 is provided with an easy-release component 41; the easy-release component 41 is provided with a locking hole 42 that mates with the locking block 32. The male connector 1 is provided with an unlocking channel 5 communicating with the locking channel 4 along the width direction; the unlocking channel 5 is directly opposite the lock hole 42; the unlocking channel 5 is slidably provided with an unlocking component 51; the unlocking component 51 and the locking bar 31 are respectively provided on both sides of the easy-release component 41; The easy-release part 41 is provided with an easy-release pin 43 that extends and retracts along the width direction; the male connector 1 is provided with an easy-release groove 46 that mates with the easy-release pin 43.

[0020] Specifically, in the computer power cable with tensile buffer structure described in this embodiment, when the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are installed, the male socket 12 of the male connector 1 enters the female cavity 21 of the female connector 2, so that the female terminal 22 in the female cavity 21 enters the male slot 13 and contacts the male terminal 14, thereby realizing the conduction between the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0021] During the installation of male connector 1 and female connector 2, locking bar 31 enters locking channel 4. When locking block 32 of locking bar 31 passes the position of locking hole 42, locking block 32 is inserted into locking hole 42, so that locking block 32 and locking hole 42 are locked together, thereby locking male connector 1 and female connector 2.

[0022] When normal unlocking is required, by pressing the unlocking component 51, the unlocking component 51 pushes the lock block 32 out of the lock hole 42, at which point the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be separated.

[0023] When the computer power cable with the tensile buffer structure of this embodiment is subjected to a large tensile force, the locking block 32 and the locking hole 42 are locked together, so the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 cannot be separated by separating the locking block 32 and the locking hole 42. However, since the easy-release part 41 is provided with an easy-release pin 43 that moves along the width direction, and the male connector 1 is provided with an easy-release groove 46 that cooperates with the easy-release pin 43, when subjected to a large tensile force, the easy-release pin 43 can separate from the easy-release groove 46, so that the entire easy-release part 41 can be removed from the locking channel 4, thereby releasing the locking state of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, preventing damage to the components, and playing a tensile buffer role.

[0024] The computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure described in this embodiment has an easy-release spring 44 between the easy-release pin 43 and the easy-release part 41; the easy-release part 41 has a first easy-release inclined surface 45; and the easy-release groove 46 has a second easy-release inclined surface 47 that cooperates with the first easy-release inclined surface 45.

[0025] Specifically, when subjected to a large tensile force, the release pin can be separated from the release groove 46 by the cooperation of the first release ramp 45 and the second release ramp 47, so that the entire release part 41 can be removed from the locking channel 4, thereby releasing the locking state of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, preventing damage to the components, and playing a role in tensile buffering.

[0026] This embodiment describes a computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure. A locking spring 33 is provided between the locking block 32 and the locking bar 31. One end of the easy-release part 41 is located at the opening of the locking channel 4. The easy-release pin 43 is located at the other end of the easy-release part 41. One end of the locking bar 31 is telescopically movably located at the female connector 2. The locking block 32 is located at one end of the locking bar 31. One end of the easy-release part 41 is provided with an abutting inclined surface 48 for abutting against the locking block 32.

[0027] Specifically, during the installation of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, when the locking bar 31 enters the opening of the locking channel 4, the abutting inclined surface 48 of the easy-release part 41 pushes the locking block 32 to retract against the action of the locking spring 33, thereby allowing the locking block 32 and the locking bar 31 to enter the locking channel 4. When the locking block 32 passes the position of the lock hole 42, under the restoring action of the locking spring 33, the locking block 32 is inserted into the lock hole 42, so that the locking block 32 and the lock hole 42 are locked, thereby locking the male connector 1 and the female connector 2.

[0028] This embodiment of a computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure includes a female connector 2 with a telescopic channel 3 along its length; a locking bar 31 slidably disposed in the telescopic channel 3; and a telescopic spring 34 between the locking bar 31 and the telescopic channel 3. In this embodiment of a computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure, the female connector 2 has a drive groove 6; the drive groove 6 communicates with both the telescopic channel 3 and the female socket 21; a drive block 61 slidably disposed in the drive groove 6 along its width; and a drive spring 62 between the drive block 61 and the drive groove 6; under the action of the telescopic spring 34, the other end of the locking bar 31 protrudes into the drive groove 6; and under the action of the drive spring 62, the drive block 61 protrudes into the female socket 21. In this embodiment of a computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure, the female socket 21 has a drive plate 7 slidably disposed along its length; and a return spring 71 between the drive plate 7 and the female socket 21. This embodiment of a computer power cable with a tensile-resistant buffer structure includes a drive block 61 with a first drive ramp 63 for abutting against the other end of a locking bar 31, and a second drive ramp 64 for abutting against a drive plate 7. The female connector 2 has a connection channel 8; one end of the connection channel 8 communicates with a telescopic channel 3; the other end of the connection channel 8 communicates with a female insertion cavity 21; a first locking block 81 is telescopically movably provided at one end of the connection channel 8; a second locking block 82 is telescopically movably provided at the other end of the connection channel 8; a locking spring 83 is provided between the first locking block 81 and the second locking block 82. A spring piece 84 is provided between the connection channel 8 and the first locking block 81 in this embodiment of a computer power cable with a tensile-resistant buffer structure. The computer power cable with a tensile buffer structure described in this embodiment has a first slot 35 at one end of the locking bar 31 that cooperates with the first locking block 81; a second slot 72 at the drive board 7 that cooperates with the second locking block 82; a first locking bevel 85 at the first locking block 81; and a second locking bevel 86 at the second locking block 82.

[0029] Specifically, in the computer power cable with tensile buffer structure described in this embodiment, before the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are plugged in, under the action of the reset spring 71, the drive plate 7 is located at the opening of the female insertion cavity 21. Under the action of the drive spring 62, the drive block 61 protrudes into the female insertion cavity 21. Under the action of the telescopic spring 34, the other end of the locking bar 31 protrudes into the drive groove 6, and the first slot 35 at one end of the locking bar 31 is aligned with the connecting channel 8. At this time, under the action of the spring piece 84, the first locking block 81 protrudes into the first slot 35. At this time, the second slot 72 does not contact the second slot 72 of the drive plate 7.

[0030] During the installation of male connector 1 and female connector 2, the male socket 12 of male connector 1 enters the female cavity 21 of female connector 2, causing the female terminal 22 in the female cavity 21 to enter the male slot 13 and make contact with the male terminal 14. At the same time, the male socket 12 pushes the drive plate 7 to compress the reset spring 71 and move inward. The drive plate 7 pushes the drive block 61 to move into the drive groove 6 through the second drive ramp 64, overcoming the action of the drive spring 62. The drive block 61 pushes the locking bar 31 to move outward through the first drive ramp 63. During the outward movement of the locking bar 31, the first locking block 81 is pushed back into the connection channel 8 through the first locking ramp 85, while the second locking block 82 is pushed out of the connection channel 8. With the installation of male connector 1 and female connector 2, locking bar 31 extends out from telescopic channel 3 and enters locking channel 4. When locking block 32 of locking bar 31 passes the position of lock hole 42, locking block 32 is inserted into lock hole 42, so that locking block 32 and lock hole 42 are locked together, thereby locking male connector 1 and female connector 2.

[0031] When normal unlocking is required, press the unlocking component 51, which will push the lock block 32 out of the lock hole 42. At this time, the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be separated, and each component can be reset normally.

[0032] When subjected to a large tensile force, the locking block 32 is locked to the locking hole 42, thus preventing the separation of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2. However, since the easy-release part 41 is provided with an easy-release pin 43 that extends and retracts along the width direction, and the male connector 1 is provided with an easy-release groove 46 that cooperates with the easy-release pin 43, when subjected to a large tensile force, the pin can be separated from the easy-release groove 46 under the cooperation of the first easy-release inclined surface 45 and the second easy-release inclined surface 47, thereby allowing the entire easy-release part 41 to exit from the locking channel 4, thereby releasing the locking state of the male connector 1 and the female connector 2, preventing damage to the components, and playing a role in tensile buffering.

[0033] Furthermore, after the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are separated, the locking bar 31 is pulled away from the male connector 1 and remains at the female connector. At this time, the locking block 32 and the locking hole 42 remain locked, that is, the locking bar 31 and the easy-release part 41 are locked, and the locking bar 31 cannot be reset. The second locking block 82 still extends out of the connection channel 8. However, the male connector 1 has been withdrawn from the female connector 2. That is to say, under the action of the reset spring 71, the drive plate 7 moves outward. When it moves to the opening of the female cavity 21, the second locking block 82 is engaged with the second locking groove 72 of the drive plate 7 by the second locking inclined surface 86. At this time, the drive plate 7 cannot continue to move, thereby protecting the female cavity 21 and preventing the user from plugging the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 into each other again. After the user checks the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 and confirms that the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 are undamaged, the locking block 32 is manually pushed to separate the locking block 32 from the locking hole 42, so that all components are reset and the male connector 1 and the female connector 2 can be plugged into each other normally.

[0034] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of the present invention without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
