Abstract

This invention relates to the field of computer hardware interface technology and discloses a magnetic positioning anti-misinsertion computer interface detection module. This magnetic positioning anti-misinsertion computer interface detection module includes a cylindrical plug and a cylindrical recessed socket. The cylindrical plug has a circular copper contact piece embedded in its surface, a locking groove on its outer side, and a white line on its outer side. A first magnet is embedded in the surface of the cylindrical plug. An elastic contact is located inside the cylindrical recessed socket. A baffle is located inside the cylindrical recessed socket, and a second magnet is embedded in its surface. A limit groove is formed on the outer side of the baffle. A locking assembly is located on the sidewall of the cylindrical recessed socket, and an infrared reflective sensor is embedded in the inner wall of the cylindrical recessed socket. This device has advantages such as automatic magnetic positioning, an active anti-misinsertion mechanism, stable connection, and safe locking, solving the problems of high directional requirements for traditional interfaces and easy damage caused by misinsertion.
