[0002] With the widespread use of mobile devices (such as smartphones, tablets, and TWS earphones), data cables have become a core accessory for device charging and data transfer, widely used in daily life and work. Traditional data cables have limited functionality, only enabling basic charging and data transfer. In actual use, users often face the problem of not being able to intuitively determine the charging status when connecting the data cable to their device, creating a significant blind spot. In some cases, charging failures due to poor cable contact or loose interfaces occur, and users cannot obtain any indication from the data cable itself, often having to wait for a period of time to discover the problem. This not only affects charging efficiency but may also cause the device to run out of power due to prolonged lack of charging, causing considerable inconvenience to users' daily lives.

[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0026] Please see Figures 1-5 In this embodiment of the invention, a data cable with a sound-generating function includes a connecting cable 1, a connector 2, a sound-generating component, and a driving component. There are two connectors 2. The two ends of the connecting cable 1 are electrically connected to the two connectors 2 respectively. The sound-generating component includes a support block 3. The support block 3 is disposed on one of the connectors 2. A sound-generating block 4 is rotatably disposed on the support block 3. The driving component is disposed on the support block 3 and is electrically connected to the power supply end of the connecting cable 1. The driving component is used to drive the sound-generating block 4 to swing back and forth relative to the support block 3.

[0027] In use, the two connectors 2 are plugged into the terminal device and the charging interface respectively, so that the data cable can provide charging service for the terminal device. When the data cable is correctly connected to the terminal device and charging begins, the driving component acts on the sound-emitting block 4, thereby causing the sound-emitting block 4 to swing back and forth relative to the support block 3, so that the sound-emitting block 4 and the connector 2 collide with each other to produce sound. When the data cable is not connected to the terminal device or the terminal device has finished charging, the driving component releases its action on the sound-emitting block 4, so that the sound-emitting block 4 is in a stopped state. It can be seen that when the sound-emitting block 4 is in a swinging state and emits sound, the terminal device is in a charging state; when the sound-emitting block 4 is in a stopped state, the terminal device has finished charging or the data cable is not connected to the terminal device. The user can use this to confirm the connection status of the data cable and the terminal device, and the system will provide a prompt to the user.

[0028] The driving component includes a control board 5 and an inductor L1. The control board 5 is disposed inside the support block 3, and the inductor L1 is disposed on the surface of the support block 3. The control board 5 integrates a control chip U1. The output control terminal of the control chip U1 is electrically connected to the inductor L1, and the power supply terminal of the control chip U1 is electrically connected to the power supply terminal of the connecting line 1. A magnet 6 is provided on the side of the sound-generating block 4 near the inductor L1. The control chip U1 controls the inductor L1 to generate positive and negative magnetic fields at intervals, which act on the magnet 6 to drive the sound-generating block 4 to swing back and forth relative to the support block 3. When the data cable is correctly connected to the terminal device and charging begins, the control chip U1 will periodically control the switching of power on the inductor coil L1, causing the inductor coil L1 to generate magnetic fields in opposite directions, which act on the magnet 6. Since the magnet 6 is located on the sound-generating block 4, the sound-generating block 4 will swing back and forth relative to the support block 3 under the action of the magnetic field force, causing the sound-generating block 4 to collide with the connector 2 and produce sound. When the data cable is incorrectly connected to the terminal device or the terminal device has finished charging, the control board 5 will automatically disconnect the electrical connection between the control chip U1 and the power supply terminal of the connecting line 1, so that the control chip U1 stops working due to power failure, the inductor coil L1 no longer generates a magnetic field, and the sound-generating block 4 will stop swinging.

[0029] To provide mounting positions for the control board 5 and the inductor coil L1, the surface of the support block 3 is recessed to form a fixing groove 7. The control board 5 is fixed in the fixing groove 7, and the inductor coil L1 is fixed in the fixing groove 7 and located on one side of the control board 5.

[0030] like Figure 9As shown, control board 5 also integrates resistors R1 and R2, capacitors C1, C2, and C3. One branch of pin 1 of control chip U1 is electrically connected to the positive terminal of the power supply of connection line 1, and the other branch, after being connected in series with capacitor C1, is electrically connected to the negative terminal of the power supply of connection line 1. Pins 2 and 4 of control chip U1 are connected in parallel and electrically connected to one end of capacitor C3 and inductor L1, respectively. Pins 5 and 6 of control chip U1 are connected in parallel and electrically connected to the other end of capacitor C3 and inductor L1, respectively. Pin 3 of control chip U1 is electrically connected to the negative terminal of the power supply of connection line 1. Pin 7 has one branch connected in series with capacitor C2 and electrically connected to the negative power supply of line 1, and the other branch connected to one end of resistor R2. The other end of resistor R2 has one branch connected in series with resistor R1 and electrically connected to the negative power supply of line 1. The other end of resistor R2 has another branch connected to the negative power supply of line 1. Resistors R1 and R2 can be different models of resistors according to the error accuracy requirements of the actual circuit. Capacitors C1, C2, and C3 can be different models of capacitors according to the error accuracy requirements of the actual circuit. The control chip U1 is an 8-bit microprocessor EM78P152 developed by Elan Microelectronics in Taiwan, China.

[0031] When inductor L1 is momentarily switched on with direct current, it generates a positive magnetic field due to electromagnetic induction. Magnet 6, located within this magnetic field, experiences a magnetic force from this field. Since the directions of the magnetic fields of inductor L1 and magnet 6 are not the same, magnet 6 is attracted by the magnetic field of inductor L1 due to the attraction between opposite magnetic poles. This causes the sound-generating block 4 to swing towards the support block 3 and strike connector 2. When inductor L1 is momentarily switched off with direct current, it generates a positive magnetic field due to electromagnetic induction. A magnetic field in the opposite direction. Magnet 6, located within the magnetic field of inductor L1, is subjected to the magnetic force of this opposite magnetic field. Since the direction of the magnetic field of inductor L1 is the same as that of magnet 6, magnet 6 will be repelled by the magnetic field of inductor L1 under the interaction of like poles repelling each other. This causes sound-generating block 4 to swing away from support block 3. Thus, by switching inductor L1 on and off, magnetic fields in opposite directions are alternately generated, which alternately attract and repel magnet 6, causing sound-generating block 4 to continuously collide with connector 2 and produce a continuous beeping sound.

[0032] The sound-generating block 4 has side plates 8 on both sides, and a first positioning post 9 is provided on the side of the two side plates 8 that are close to each other. The support block 3 has positioning holes 10 on both sides, and the two first positioning posts 9 are respectively inserted into the two positioning holes 10. In this way, the sound-generating block 4 can rotate and swing along the first positioning posts 9 to produce sound under the drive of the drive component.

[0033] Both side plates 8 have an arc-shaped groove 11 on their adjacent sides, and the support block 3 has two second positioning posts 12 on both sides, which are respectively inserted into the two arc-shaped grooves 11. During the swinging process of the sound-generating block 4, the second positioning posts 12 abut against the groove wall of the arc-shaped groove 11, so that the sound-generating block 4 can only swing within the range of the arc-shaped groove 11, thereby achieving the purpose of limiting the swing amplitude of the sound-generating block 4.

[0034] Each of the two side plates 8, located on opposite sides, has a connecting plate 13 that is rotatably mounted. The connecting plate 13 has a third positioning post 14. One of the connectors 2 has positioning grooves 15 on both sides, and the two third positioning posts 14 are respectively inserted into the two positioning grooves 15. During the swinging process of the sound-generating block 4, the connecting plate 13 helps prevent the sound-generating block 4 from swinging too much.

[0035] The sound-generating block 4 consists of two blocks 16. Each block 16 has a mounting groove 17 on its adjacent side. The two mounting grooves 17 are joined together to form a mounting cavity, and the magnet 6 is placed inside the mounting cavity. The sound-generating block 4 adopts a split structure design, which facilitates the installation of the sound-generating block 4 on the support block 3 and the installation of the magnet 6 inside the sound-generating block 4.

[0036] The sound-generating block 4 also includes a fixing member 18. Each of the two blocks 16 has a locking hole 19 on the side away from the inductor coil L1. The inner wall of the mounting cavity is provided with two locking blocks 20. The two locking blocks 20 are respectively located near the two locking holes 19. Each of the two locking blocks 20 has a locking groove 21. The fixing member 18 consists of a main body 22 and locking parts 23 located on both sides of the main body 22. The ends of the two locking parts 23 are provided with locking protrusions 24. The locking protrusions 24 are made of elastic material. The two locking parts 23 are respectively inserted into the two locking holes 19, and the two locking protrusions 24 are respectively locked into the two locking grooves 21. By setting the fastener 18, during assembly, the magnet 6 is first placed in one of the mounting slots 17, and then the two blocks 16 are respectively assembled on both sides of the support block 3, so that the first positioning post 9 is inserted into the positioning hole 10, the second positioning post 12 is inserted into the arc groove 11, and the third positioning post 14 is inserted into the positioning groove 15. Then, the two snap-fit ​​parts 23 of the fastener 18 are respectively inserted into the corresponding two snap-fit ​​holes 19, so that the two snap-fit ​​protrusions 24 are engaged with the two snap-fit ​​grooves 21, thus completing the assembly of the sound-generating block 4 and the magnet 6.

[0037] To facilitate the installation of the fastener 18, the fastener 18 also includes a lifting portion 25, which is provided on the side of the main body 22 away from the locking hole 19 and is arc-shaped.

[0038] Because inductor coil L1 needs to be replaced due to damage, or to meet the requirements for use in silent environments, sound-generating block 4 needs to be disassembled during use. Therefore, refer to... Figures 6-8The present invention also provides an embodiment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0039] The two snap-fit ​​parts 23 each have a groove on the side away from each other. The two snap-fit ​​protrusions 24 are respectively set in the two grooves. Both snap-fit ​​protrusions 24 are hollow. The lifting part 25 has a medium cavity. The medium cavity has a piston 26. The piston 26 divides the medium cavity into a first chamber 27 and a second chamber 28. The first chamber 27 and the two snap-fit ​​protrusions 24 are respectively connected by a conduit 29. The first chamber 27 is filled with medium. The surface of the lifting part 25 has a through hole 30 that communicates with the medium cavity. The piston 26 has a pull rod 31 on the side near the through hole 30. The end of the pull rod 31 extends from the through hole 30 to the outside of the lifting part 25. The end of the pull rod 31 has a pull head 32. The inner wall of the medium cavity has an annular boss 33 near the through hole 30. A spring 34 is sleeved on the pull rod 31. One end of the spring 34 abuts against the piston 26. The other end of the spring 34 abuts against the annular boss 33.

[0040] In this embodiment, the medium is gas or liquid. Under the action of spring 34, piston 26 always tends to move away from through hole 30, so that the medium in the first chamber 27 flows into the snap-fit ​​protrusion 24 through conduit 29, thereby causing snap-fit ​​protrusion 24 to be in an expanded state; the expanded snap-fit ​​protrusion 24 can form a snap-fit ​​engagement with the slot 21 to achieve assembly and fixation. When it is necessary to disassemble the sound-generating block 4, simply pull the lever 31 with pull head 32 to move piston 26 closer to through hole 30, the volume of the first chamber 27 increases accordingly, the medium in snap-fit ​​protrusion 24 can flow back to the first chamber 27, the snap-fit ​​protrusion 24 can then be de-expanded and disengaged from slot 21, at which time the fixing member 18 can be removed, the two blocks 16 can be separated, and the disassembly of sound-generating block 4 is completed.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-limiting, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
