AI Technical Summary
Existing computer interfaces such as USB Type-A have problems such as high directional requirements during plugging and unplugging, easy mis-plugging leading to damage and safety hazards.
The design combines magnetic positioning with an infrared reflective sensor. Through asymmetrical magnetic circuits and white line detection, it ensures that the plug is only attracted in the correct direction and triggers locking after complete alignment, preventing mis-insertion and achieving a stable connection and safe locking.
It improves insertion and removal efficiency, reduces the risk of damage from misinsertion, and ensures equipment safety and a secure connection.
