At this time, the casing 5 on the outer shell 1 cannot be moved, so that the depth of the slot in the outer shell 1 is adjusted and fixed, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the plug-in length of the Type-C connector. The other ends of the two buttons 7 are movably plugged with the top and bottom of the casing 5 respectively. The top and bottom of the casing 5 are both provided with through holes 10, and the two through holes 10 are respectively connected to the interior of the two limiting slide rails 8. The ends of the two buttons 7 facing away from each other are respectively adapted to the interior of the two through holes 10. The casing 5 and the buttons 7 are set, and the buttons 7 on the upper and lower sides of the casing 5 are squeezed to compress the two springs 9, so that the two buttons 7 are respectively moved from the two through holes 10 to the accommodating holes of the two fixed blocks 6. The casing 5 on the outer shell 1 can be moved left and right to adjust the depth of the slot in the outer shell 1, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the plug-in length of the Type-C connector.

[0020] When in use, the buttons 7 on the upper and lower sides of the casing 5 are squeezed to compress the two springs 9, so that the two buttons 7 are moved relatively from the two through holes 10 into the receiving holes of the two fixed blocks 6, and the casing 5 on the outer shell 1 can be moved left and right to adjust the depth of the slot in the outer shell 1. Through the elastic force of the two springs 9, the two buttons 7 are ejected back to back into the through holes 10 on the upper and lower sides of the casing 5. At this time, the casing 5 on the outer shell 1 cannot be moved, so that the depth of the slot in the outer shell 1 is adjusted and fixed, thereby facilitating the adjustment operation of the plug-in length of the Type-C connector. The Type-C connector with adjustable plug-in length, by adding the casing 5 to the plug-in end of the Type-C connector, allows the plug-in length of the Type-C connector to be adjusted to a length that matches the connector of another connector, preventing the phenomenon of redundant exposed connectors after the two connectors are connected, improving the connection applicability of the Type-C connector, and facilitating the connection and use of the Type-C connector.
