[0001] This invention relates to the field of storage device technology, specifically to a storage device with a TYPE-C connector. Background Technology

[0002] With societal development, data storage is gradually becoming electronic, typically using smartphones, computers, hard drives, memory cards, USB flash drives, and other methods. USB flash drives are a type of fast read / write data storage device that can connect to a computer via a USB plug to store data on the computer, or connect to a mobile phone via a USB plug. The TYPE-C connector is one of the more commonly used connectors, allowing you to connect a USB flash drive to your phone's charging port to store data, pictures, text, etc., convenient for mobile phone users with limited memory or high storage requirements.

[0003] Existing storage devices and TYPE-C connectors are generally separate structures. After using the TYPE-C connector, it is difficult to directly hide and store it inside the storage device. The TYPE-C connector is easy to lose, and the storage device cannot be used independently. After plugging the storage device into the phone using the TYPE-C connector, the storage device is generally in a loose hanging state, and it usually needs to be held and fixed by hand. This makes the phone less flexible and convenient to operate. To address the above problems, the existing devices need to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a storage device with a TYPE-C connector, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Existing storage devices and TYPE-C connectors are generally separate structures. After using the TYPE-C connector, it is difficult to directly hide and store it inside the storage device. The TYPE-C connector is easy to lose, and the storage device cannot be used independently. After the storage device is plugged into the mobile phone using the TYPE-C connector, the storage device is generally in a loose hanging state, and it is generally necessary to hold the storage device to fix it. This makes the operation of the mobile phone less flexible and convenient.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a storage device with a TYPE-C connector, comprising a storage disk, a first groove being formed at the bottom of the storage disk, a connecting wire being fixed in the first groove, a TYPE-C connector being fixed at the end of the connecting wire, and a clamping and fixing mechanism being fixed in the storage disk.

[0006] Preferably, the front end face of the storage disk is provided with a sealing channel, and the sealing channel communicates with the first groove. A first pressing block is movably connected to the first end of the sealing channel, and a piston is movably connected to the end of the sealing channel.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, after pressing the first pressing block, the piston will automatically open the TYPE-C connector.

[0008] Preferably, the clamping and fixing mechanism includes a second groove, which is symmetrically opened on both sides of the storage disk. A limiting rod is fixed in the second groove, and a slider is slidably connected in the second groove, with the limiting rod passing through the slider.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiting rod plays a limiting role during the sliding of the slider.

[0010] Preferably, a rotating plate is rotatably connected to the outer side of the slider, and the rotating plate is connected to the slider via a first spiral spring.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the rotating plate will automatically unfold after being manually pushed to the bottom.

[0012] Preferably, the lower side of the inner top of the rotating plate is connected to the movable plate by a tension spring, and the outer end face of the movable plate is provided with a toothed groove.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, after unfolding the rotating plate, the movable plate can be pulled outwards, and after unlocking the movable plate, the movable plate will automatically retract.

[0014] Preferably, the bottom of the movable plate is provided with a third groove, and a first compression spring is fixed in the third groove. A support plate is fixed to the bottom of the first compression spring, and a rotating block is rotatably connected to the bottom of the support plate. A clamping plate is fixed to the bottom of the rotating block, and a locking block is fixed to the top of the clamping plate. A locking groove is provided at the bottom of the movable plate, and the locking block is engaged in the locking groove.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, before rotating the rotating block, it is necessary to pull the rotating block and make the card block leave the card slot. After rotating the rotating block, the rotating block can be released and the card block will be locked back into the card slot.

[0016] Preferably, a fourth groove is provided on the inner wall of the rotating plate, and a second compression spring is fixed in the fourth groove. A locking block is fixed to the inner end of the second compression spring, and the locking block is engaged in the tooth groove.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking block will automatically engage in the tooth groove during the pulling process of the movable plate, which can prevent the movable plate from moving backward.

[0018] Preferably, a pull rope is fixed to the outside of the locking block, and a winding drum is symmetrically rotatably connected to both sides inside the storage disk. The winding drum is connected to the storage disk through a second spiral spring, and the pull rope is wound around the outside of the winding drum.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution and using a winding drum and a second spiral spring, the rope can be kept taut.

[0020] Preferably, the front end face of the storage disk has a fifth groove, and a third compression spring is fixed in the fifth groove.

The toothed plate moves together with the second pressing block. The gear, rotating rod and the clasp rotate as a whole. The clasp twists the pull rope. After unlocking the movable plate, the movable plate will automatically return to its original position. When used with the clamp, the device can be clamped and fixed on the phone. After pressing the first pressing block and using the piston to open the TYPE-C connector, the TYPE-C connector can be inserted into the phone. After using the TYPE-C connector, it can be stored in the first groove.

[0024] 2. This storage device with a TYPE-C connector can achieve the purpose of locking and fixing. Before rotating the clamp, it is necessary to pull the clamp and make the locking block leave the slot. After rotating the clamp 180 degrees, the clamp can be released, the clamp will automatically reset, and the locking block will lock back into the slot, which is convenient for fixing the clamp.

[0025] 3. This storage device with a TYPE-C connector can achieve a self-locking purpose. During the process of pulling the movable plate, the locking block will automatically lock into the tooth groove, and the movable plate can only be unfolded and cannot be retracted, which facilitates the self-locking effect. When the sleeve is rotated and the pull rope is twisted, the locking block will move and leave the tooth groove under the pull of the pull rope, which facilitates unlocking the movable plate.
