[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. In addition, the characteristics, operations or features described in the specification can be combined in any appropriate manner to form various implementation methods. At the same time, the steps or actions in the method description can also be replaced or adjusted in order in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various sequences in the specification and the accompanying drawings are only for the purpose of clearly describing a certain embodiment and are not meant to be a necessary sequence, unless otherwise specified that a certain sequence must be followed.

[0026] In the description of this application, "several" means one or more, "more" means more than two, "greater than", "less than", "exceed", etc. are understood to exclude the number itself, and "above", "below", "within", etc. are understood to include the number itself. If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0027] The serial numbers of the components in this document, such as "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the objects described and do not have any order or technical meaning. The "connection" and "coupling" mentioned in this application, unless otherwise specified, include direct and indirect connections (couplings).

[0028] With the development of computers, connectors are widely used, but the connector structure is complicated, and the connection between the front shielding shell and the rear shielding shell is not firm, which is easy to loosen, resulting in poor conductivity. Currently, connectors on the market generally adopt two design structures.

[0029] The first method is to install an integrated molded shell on the interface body and then use an injection molding machine to perform PVC injection molding. Because it is PVC injection molding, the appearance of the final product is not high-grade and cannot meet the market's high-quality and high-quality requirements for such products.

[0030] The other method is to install two upper and lower ABS plastic shells on the interface body, and then use an ultrasonic machine for ultrasonic processing. This installation method will leave a very obvious ultrasonic line on the outer surface of the final product. It is not only easy to dislocate and the product appearance is not up to standard, but also has a high defective rate and requires the use of professional ultrasonic processing equipment. On the other hand, the interface shell cannot be separated after fusion, which makes it difficult to disassemble and repair the interface when it fails, and it is even impossible to restore the interface shell after disassembly.

[0031] Based on this, an embodiment of the present application provides an interface that can be easily disassembled non-destructively during maintenance, thereby improving the maintainability of the interface.

[0032] The interface is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, Figure 1 An overall structural diagram of an interface provided for an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 An exploded diagram of an interface provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 3 A structural front view of an interface housing provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 4 A structural rear view of an interface housing provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of a first shell provided in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 6 A schematic structural diagram of a second shell provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0034] An interface provided by an embodiment of the present application includes: an interface body 100; an interface shell 200, including a first shell 210 and a second shell 220, wherein the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 are combined to form a receiving portion for fixing the interface body 100; wherein the first shell 210 includes a plurality of positioning posts 211, and the second shell 220 includes a plurality of positioning holes 221, and the positions of the positioning posts 211 correspond to the positions of the positioning holes 221 one by one, and the first shell 210 is detachably connected to the positioning holes 221 of the second shell 220 through the positioning posts 211 to form the interface shell 200.

[0035] It should be noted that the interface is an HDMI interface, the interface body 100 is the core part of the HDMI interface, and the interface housing 200 is composed of a first shell 210 and a second shell 220. The first shell 210 is detachably connected to the positioning hole 221 of the second shell 220 through a positioning column 211. After the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 are connected, a receiving space is formed in the middle, which is a receiving part. The receiving part is used to fix and install the interface body 100. After the installation is completed, an easy-to-install and detachable HDMI interface is formed.

[0036] It can be understood that the accommodation portion formed by the combination of the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 is used to fix the interface body 100, which helps to ensure the stability of the HDMI interface connection and reduce the transmission interruption of high-definition video and audio signals caused by external interference. The HDMI interface using this interface structure has the advantages of precise alignment, easy installation and disassembly, stable connection, digital signal transmission, versatility and wide application.

[0037] It is understandable that this interface structure allows the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 to be detachably connected through the combination of the positioning posts 211 and the positioning holes 221, making the interface housing 200 easier to install, disassemble and maintain. Among them, the first shell 210 includes a plurality of positioning posts 211, and the second shell 220 includes a plurality of positioning holes 221. The positions of the positioning posts 211 and the positions of the positioning holes 221 correspond one to one, and the number of the positioning posts 211 and the positioning holes 221 also correspond. The first shell 210 and the second shell 220 can be fixedly connected by setting 6 positioning holes 221 and 6 positioning posts 211. The number of positioning posts 211 and positioning holes 221 can be determined according to actual conditions, or can be other numbers that can fix the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 together, and no limitation is made here.

[0038] In one embodiment of the present application, the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 are connected and combined by a combination of a positioning column 211 and a positioning hole 221, so that the first shell 210 and the second shell 220 can form a whole. When the interface is maintained, the interface can be disassembled by a tool to separate the interface shell 200 into the first shell 210 and the second shell 220, thereby maintaining the interface body 100 fixedly installed in the accommodating portion.

[0039] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the receiving portion has a first opening 240 and a second opening 250 , the first opening 240 matches the shape of the connector 110 of the interface body 100 , and the second opening 250 matches the shape of the cable 400 used to connect the interface body 100 .

[0040] It should be noted that the interface is an HDMI interface, the interface body 100 is fixedly installed in the accommodating portion, the connector 110 is in the shape of an HDMI connector, the connector 110 of the interface body 100 extends outward from the first opening 240, the connector 110 may be a male connector 110 or a female connector 110, the connector 110 may be provided with a plurality of metal pins, and the metal pins are covered by a metal layer to shield electromagnetic signal interference, the cable 400 is connected to the interface body 100 through the second opening 250, the connection between the cable 400 and the interface is thicker than the outer diameter of the cable 400, and is used to protect the connection to prevent the cable 400 from being disconnected from the connection, and the thicker connection part is usually more durable, can withstand greater tension and bending, and prolongs the service life of the interface. The connection is provided with a plurality of pressure grooves, and when the connection is bent and deformed during the use of the interface, by providing a plurality of grooves, the pressure of the connection can be more evenly distributed around the cable 400, reducing the damage or wear that may be caused by a single pressure point, thereby protecting the connection to prevent the cable 400 from being disconnected from the connection, and prolonging the service life of the cable 400 and the interface.

[0041] Reference Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 A schematic structural diagram of a fixing member provided in accordance with an embodiment of the present application.

[0042] In some embodiments, the interface further includes a fixing member 300 , and the fixing member 300 is sleeved on the interface housing 200 .

[0043] It should be noted that the fixing member 300 is sleeved on the outer surface of the interface housing 200 to fix and protect the interface housing 200, reduce signal loss or interference, and thus improve transmission performance and signal quality.

[0044] It can be understood that the fixing member 300 is sleeved on the outer surface of the interface housing 200, which increases the structural strength of the interface to a certain extent.

[0045] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the fixing member 300 is a hollow shell, and a limiting portion 230 is provided at one end of the interface shell 200 close to the second opening 250 . The fixing member 300 penetrates into the interface shell 200 from one end close to the first opening 240 to abut against the limiting portion 230 .

[0046] It should be noted that a limiting portion 230 is provided at the end of the interface shell 200 close to the second opening 250, that is, the end close to the cable 400, and the fixing member 300 is inserted from the end close to the first opening 240, that is, the end close to the connector 110 of the interface. When the fixing member 300 abuts against the limiting portion 230, the fixing member 300 is completely inserted into the outer surface of the interface shell 200.

[0047] It is understandable that, although the fixing member 300 is firmly fixed to the interface housing 200 , due to the design of the limiting portion 230 , the user can still install and remove the fixing member 300 relatively easily.

[0048] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the limiting portion 230 is protruded from the surface of the interface housing 200 , and the protruding height of the limiting portion 230 is the same as the wall thickness of the fixing member 300 .

[0049] It should be noted that the limiting portion 230 is arranged on the surface of the interface shell 200 and is higher than the surface of the interface shell 200. When the fixing member 300 is sleeved on the surface of the interface shell 200, the surface height of the interface shell 200 plus the wall thickness of the fixing member 300 is the same as the height of the limiting portion 230, so that the limiting portion 230 can limit the insertion of the fixing member 300, thereby forming an approximately smooth interface plane.

[0050] It is understandable that by providing the stopper 230 between the fixing member 300 and the interface housing 200, the fixing member 300 can be prevented from being mis-installed or improperly installed. The protruding height of the stopper 230 is the same as the wall thickness of the fixing member 300, which means that the fixing member 300 must be correctly inserted into the interface housing 200 so as to fit with the stopper 230, thereby reducing connection problems caused by mis-installation and improving the reliability of the overall system.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present application, the fixing member 300 can be correctly positioned and fixed on the interface housing 200 without moving or swinging through the cooperation of the limiting portion 230 and the fixing member 300. The limiting portion 230 is raised on the surface of the interface housing 200, and its raised height is the same as the wall thickness of the fixing member 300, so that the fixing member 300 can be fully inserted and correctly fixed.

[0052] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the surface of the limiting portion 230 is provided with anti-slip lines 231, and the anti-slip lines 231 indicate the access direction of the interface.

[0053] It should be noted that by providing the anti-skid pattern 231 on the surface of the limiter 230, the friction force when the user holds the device can be increased, and when the interface is connected, the stability and safety of the operation are improved, making it easier to grasp and manipulate the interface. The anti-skid pattern 231 not only provides a good grip, but also serves as a mark of the interface access direction. By observing or touching the anti-skid pattern 231, the user can perceive the correct insertion direction of the interface, avoiding incorrect insertion, and further improving the convenience of use and the accuracy of operation.

[0054] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, a heat dissipation vent 260 for dissipating heat is disposed on the surface of the interface housing 200 , and the heat dissipation vent 260 is disposed between the first opening 240 and the second opening 250 .

[0055] It should be noted that the heat dissipation port 260 provided on the surface of the interface housing 200 can effectively promote heat dissipation and help remove the heat generated inside the interface. Especially when under high load or used for a long time, the heat dissipation port 260 can help maintain the normal operating temperature of the interface and improve the stability and reliability of the interface system. By timely heat dissipation, the temperature accumulation of components can be reduced, the working stability and reliability can be improved, the frequency of maintenance and replacement can be reduced, the performance degradation or functional failure caused by overheating can be avoided, and the stable operation of the interface and good connection effect can be ensured.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first shell 210 , the second shell 220 and the fixing member 300 are made of ABS material.

[0057] It should be noted that ABS material has good strength and durability, and can withstand a certain degree of impact and pressure, thereby protecting the components inside the interface from the influence of the external environment. The choice of this material ensures that the interface has good reliability and stability in daily use. ABS material is easy to process and shape, and can meet the design requirements of complex housings and fixings 300. This allows manufacturers to design interfaces that meet specific requirements more flexibly, improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0058] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the interface body 100 includes a PCB board 120 , and the PCB board 120 is connected to the connector 110 of the interface body 100 .

[0059] It should be noted that, due to the strong customizability of the PCB board 120, the shape, size and function of the interface body 100 can be customized according to the needs of specific applications, making the interface more adaptable to specific application scenarios, and improving the flexibility and customizability of the entire system. The use of the PCB board 120 can reduce the interference of components such as connectors and wires on electrical signal transmission, improve the electrical performance and signal transmission quality of the interface, and reduce signal loss and interference risks.

[0060] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the outer surface of the positioning post 211 and the inner surface of the positioning hole 221 fit each other.

[0061] It should be noted that, through the mutual fit between the positioning column 211 and the positioning hole 221, the interface components can be accurately positioned to ensure their correct position during the assembly process, and can also effectively prevent the interface components from being offset or shifted during use, keeping their relative positions unchanged, and ensuring the normal operation and connection effect of the system. The design of the positioning column 211 and the positioning hole 221 makes it easier to align the interface components during the assembly process, reduces the adjustment and correction work during assembly, and improves assembly efficiency and production efficiency. Through precise positioning design, friction and wear between interface components can be reduced, their service life can be extended, the frequency of maintenance and replacement can be reduced, and the overall cost can be reduced.

[0062] The interface in this embodiment includes: an interface body; an interface shell, including a first shell and a second shell, the first shell and the second shell are combined to form a receiving portion for fixing the interface body; wherein the first shell includes a plurality of positioning posts, and the second shell includes a plurality of positioning holes, the positions of the positioning posts correspond to the positions of the positioning holes, and the first shell is detachably connected to the positioning holes of the second shell through the positioning posts to form an interface shell; the first shell and the second shell are combined to form a receiving portion for fixing the interface body through the combination of the first shell and the second shell in the embodiment of the present application, so as to achieve the effect of fixing and installing the interface shell, and the first shell and the second shell are detachably connected through the positioning posts of the first shell and the positioning holes of the second shell to form the interface shell, which can facilitate non-destructive disassembly during maintenance, thereby improving the maintainability of the interface.

[0063] It should be understood that in the present application, "at least one (item)" means one or more, and "plurality" means two or more. "And / or" is used to describe the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, "A and / or B" can mean: only A exists, only B exists, and A and B exist at the same time, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the objects associated before and after are in an "or" relationship. "At least one of the following" or similar expressions refers to any combination of these items, including any combination of single or plural items. For example, at least one of a, b or c can mean: a, b, c, "a and b", "a and c", "b and c", or "a and b and c", where a, b, c can be single or multiple.
