[0016] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application or related technologies, the following will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0017] In the related art, many wire storage products are large in size, which is convenient for users to store wires, but not convenient for users to carry around. Or, after the wires are stored, some storage products do not effectively fix the two ends of the wires, and there is no shielding structure for the wires, which will cause the wires to be exposed on the storage product, and the stored wires are easy to loosen at both ends.

[0018] For the above situation, please see Figure 1-Figure 2 The present application proposes a wire storage device 1, comprising a bracket 10 and a soft rubber cover 20. The bracket 10 is used to store the wire 2. The wire 2 can be wound on the bracket 10. The bracket 10 can provide placement space and protection for the wound wire 2.

[0019] The soft rubber cover 20 extends along the first direction L1 and is connected to the bracket 10. The soft rubber cover 20 includes a folding portion 21 and an annular cover body 22. The folding portion 21 is connected to the cover body 22. The wall thickness of the folding portion 21 is less than the wall thickness of the cover body 22. The soft rubber cover 20 has a receiving space. Taking the first direction L1 as a vertical direction as an example, the bracket 10 can be arranged above the soft rubber cover 20, and the cover body 22 extends downward from the connection with the bracket 10.

[0020] When the bracket 10 moves relative to the soft rubber cover 20 along the first direction L1, the soft rubber cover 20 is folded at the folding portion 21, so that at least part of the bracket 10 enters the accommodating space 23. The soft rubber cover 20 can be made of a material that is easily deformed, such as silicone, rubber, etc., so that the bracket 10 can move relative to the soft rubber cover 20, that is, the bracket 10 can drive the soft rubber cover 20 to deform.

[0021] Specifically, the folding portion 21 is arranged in an annular shape, that is, the folding portion 21 is arranged around the central axis of the cover body 22. During the storage of the wire 2, the bracket 10 is located at the top of the soft rubber cover 20. When the bracket 10 moves relative to the soft rubber cover 20 along the first direction L1, that is, the user applies a downward force to the bracket 10 (the user presses the bracket 10 downward), since the wall thickness at the position of the folding portion 21 is less than the wall thickness of the cover body 22, the soft rubber cover 20 is easily deformed and folded at the position of the folding portion 21, so that at least part of the bracket 10 enters the accommodation space 23 inside the soft rubber cover 20. For example, the bracket 10 can enter the accommodation space 23 in its entirety, or the storage slot 11 on the bracket 10 partially enters the accommodation space 23. After the storage of the wire 2 is completed, as long as part of the storage slot 11 on the bracket 10 enters the accommodation space 23, the wire 2 can be located in the accommodation space 23, so that the accommodation space 23 can provide placement space and protection for the storage of the wire 2.

[0022] It should be noted that the embodiment of the present application provides a soft rubber cover 20 on the bracket 10, and provides a folding portion 21 with a wall thickness less than the cover body 22 on the soft rubber cover 20, so that after the wire 2 is wound onto the bracket 10, due to the thin wall thickness of the folding portion 21, when the bracket 10 exerts a force on the soft rubber cover 20, the folding portion 21 will be deformed first, and the soft rubber cover 20 is folded along the folding portion 21, so that the bracket 10 and the wire 2 are stored in the accommodating space 23 of the soft rubber cover 20, thereby reducing the influence of external factors on the winding of the wire 2, that is, when the wire storage device 1 is placed in a pocket or bag, the soft rubber cover 20 is wrapped around the outside of the wire 2, which can reduce the friction between the wire 2 and the external environment, thereby causing the wound wire 2 to loosen and spread out, providing more comprehensive protection for the storage of the wire 2 and making it convenient for users to carry.

[0023] See also Figure 2 The soft rubber cover 20 has a first end and a second end that are relatively arranged along the first direction L1, and the bracket 10 is connected to the first end, that is, the bracket 10 is located above the soft rubber cover 20, and the bracket 10 can move relative to the cover body 22 along the first direction L1 to enter the accommodating space 23 of the cover body 22. In some embodiments of the present application, in the first direction L1, the cross-sectional area of ​​the cover body 22 gradually increases from top to bottom, thereby providing sufficient space for the entry of the bracket 10 and reducing the interference between the inner side wall of the cover body 22 and the bracket 10, so as to facilitate the user to press the bracket 10 into the accommodating space 23.

[0024] It can be understood that when the bracket 10 moves along the first direction L1 relative to the soft rubber cover 20, the soft rubber cover 20 is folded at the folding portion 21, and part of the side wall of the soft rubber cover 20 follows the bracket 10 to fold into the interior of the accommodating space 23. That is, in the first direction L1, the upper part of the cover body 22 is folded and follows the bracket 10 into the accommodating space 23 formed by the lower part of the cover body 22. By configuring the cross-sectional area of ​​the cover body 22 to gradually increase from top to bottom in the first direction L1, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the cover body 22 at the second end is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the cover body 22 at the first end, the bracket 10 can be accommodated more smoothly.

[0025] Please continue to see Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the bracket 10 also includes a bottom plate 12, a cover plate 13 and a winding post 14. The bottom plate 12 is connected to the soft rubber cover 20. The bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13 are respectively arranged at both ends of the winding post 14 in the first direction L1. The bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13 are connected through the winding post 14. The bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13 are enclosed to form a storage groove 11 for storing the wire 2. The winding post 14 is located in the storage groove 11, and the wire 2 is wound along the circumference of the winding post 14. That is, the bracket 10 is located on the top of the soft rubber cover 20, and the winding post 14 is located between the bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13. The wire 2 can be wound on the winding post 14 for storage, reducing the disorder of the wire 2, and the wire 2 is at least partially located in the storage groove 11 after winding. The bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13 can both provide a certain protection for the wire 2.

[0026] For further information, please see Figure 2 The winding post 14 is located in the middle part of the bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13, so that as much wire 2 as possible can be located in the storage groove 11 after winding, reducing the empty space in the storage groove 11, so that the space in the storage groove 11 can be more fully utilized.

[0027] Among them, the bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13 are preferably circular. At this time, the winding post 14 is located at the center of the bottom plate 12 and the cover plate 13, and the distances between the winding post 14 and each position of the edge of the bottom plate 12 and the edge of the cover plate 13 are the same, which can provide uniform storage space for the wire 2 and reduce waste of storage space.

[0028] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present application, after the soft rubber cover 20 is folded, that is, after the wire 2 is stored, the side of the cover 13 facing the bottom plate 12 contacts the side wall of the soft rubber cover 20. It can be understood that after the wire 2 is stored, the storage slot 11 on the bracket 10 enters the storage space 23. At this time, the cover 13 of the bracket 10 is located outside the storage space 23, and the side of the cover 13 close to the bottom plate 12 contacts the folded side wall of the cover body 22. That is, after the wire 2 enters the storage space 23, the cover 13 covers the storage space 23, reducing the contact between the wire 2 in the storage slot 11 and the external environment, thereby better protecting the wire 2 and making it convenient for users to carry it out. At the same time, the cover 13 is located above the soft rubber cover 20. When the user needs to take out the wire 2, the user can pull the cover 13 upward to pull the bracket 10 out of the storage space 23. In this process, the soft rubber cover 20 recovers its deformation.

[0029] Among them, when the bracket 10 moves along the first direction L1 relative to the soft rubber cover 20, the bottom plate 12 of the bracket 10 enters the accommodating space 23, and the cover plate 13 of the bracket 10 does not need to enter the accommodating space 23. The cover plate 13 covers the top of the accommodating space 23, that is, the bottom of the cover plate 13 contacts the folded side wall of the cover body 22, so that the projection area of ​​the cover plate 13 on the horizontal plane covers the projection area of ​​the bottom plate 12 on the horizontal plane, and the horizontal plane is perpendicular to the first direction L1, that is, the size of the cover plate 13 is larger than that of the bottom plate 12.

[0030] In some other embodiments, the size of the cover plate 13 is the same as that of the bottom plate 12, or the size of the cover plate 13 is smaller than that of the bottom plate 12. After the wire 2 is stored, the bracket 10 can completely enter the accommodating space 23, that is, the cover plate 13 of the bracket 10 can also be located in the accommodating space 23. A handle can be provided on the cover plate 13 to facilitate the user to pull the bracket 10 later.

[0031] See also Figure 2-Figure 4In some embodiments of the present application, the cover plate 13 is provided with a first opening 131, and the first opening 131 is connected to the storage slot 11, wherein the end of the wire 2 generally has an electrical connection structure 40, for example, the end of the charging cable and the data transmission cable has a USB connector as the electrical connection structure 40, and the first opening 131 can be used for allowing the wire 2 to pass through the storage slot 11, so that the storage slot 11 can only store the wire body part of the wire 2, and there is no need to store the electrical connection structure 40 at the end of the wire 2, thereby reducing the volume of the storage slot 11, thereby reducing the volume of the wire storage device 1, and making it convenient for users to carry.

[0032] See also Figure 1-Figure 5 In some embodiments of the present application, an electrical connection structure 40 is provided at the end of the wire 2, and the wire storage device 1 also includes a magnetic suction component 30 for adsorbing the electrical connection structure 40. The magnetic suction component 30 is arranged on a side of the bracket 10 close to the cover plate 13, so that the magnetic suction component 30 is closer to the cover plate 13 of the bracket 10. After the electrical connection structure 40 passes through the first opening 131 of the cover plate 13, the magnetic suction component 30 arranged close to the cover plate 13 can adsorb the electrical connection structure 40 on the surface of the cover plate 13, so that the wire 2 can be stored more neatly.

[0033] For example, a placement groove can be provided in the winding post 14, for example, at the connection between the cover plate 13 and the winding post 14, for installing the magnetic member 30, which can not only adsorb the electrical connection structure 40 on the cover plate 13, but also reduce the influence of the magnetic member 30 on the wire 2. The magnetic member 30 can be a magnet.

[0034] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, a plurality of folding portions 21 are provided, and the plurality of folding portions 21 are coaxially arranged and spaced apart along the first direction L1, so that when the bracket 10 is pressed downward, the cover body 22 of the soft rubber cover 20 is driven to fold downward.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 2-Figure 4As shown, there are preferably three folding portions 21, and the three folding portions 21 are evenly spaced on the cover body 22. For example, the three folding portions 21 are respectively the first folding portion 211, the second folding portion 212 and the third folding portion 213. The first folding portion 211 is arranged close to the bracket 10, the third folding portion 213 is arranged away from the bracket 10, and the second folding portion 212 is located between the first folding portion 211 and the third folding portion 213. The second folding portion 212 divides the cover body 22 into an upper half and a lower half. When the bracket 10 is moved along the first folding portion 211, the third folding portion 213 is arranged away from the bracket 10. When moving in one direction L1, since the first folding portion 211 is closest to the bracket 10, the first folding portion 211 is first subjected to force and folded, and then the second folding portion 212 is subjected to force and folded. At this time, the upper half of the cover body 22 is folded into the accommodating space 23 formed by the lower half of the cover body 22, and the bracket 10 also enters the accommodating space 23 formed by the lower half of the cover body 22. The cover plate 13 of the bracket 10 contacts the side wall of the cover body 22 after folding, so that the cover plate 13 can be placed on the second folding portion 212 of the cover body 22.

[0036] See also Figure 3-Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present application, the soft rubber cover 20 further includes a top plate 25 connected to the cover body 22, a receiving space 23 is formed between the top plate 25 and the cover body 22, and the bracket 10 is disposed on the top plate 25. Specifically, the top plate 25 can be used to close the opening of the cover body 22 toward the bracket 10, and the top plate 25 can also provide support for the setting of the bracket 10, reducing the unbalanced shaking between the bracket 10 and the cover body 22.

[0037] Please continue to see Figure 3-Figure 4 In some embodiments of the present application, the soft rubber cover 20 also includes a chassis 24, which is connected to the side of the cover body 22 away from the bracket 10. The chassis 24, the cover body 22 and the top plate 25 together form a receiving space 23. The setting of the chassis 24 provides more adequate protection for the receiving space 23. After the soft rubber cover 20 is folded, that is, after the wire 2 is stored, the top plate 25 can contact the chassis 24 to improve the stability of the bracket 10 in the receiving space 23.

[0038] When the bracket 10 moves into the accommodation space along the first direction L1, since the accommodation space 23 is not sealed, the air pressure in the accommodation space 23 is the same as the external atmospheric pressure, so that the bracket 10 is pressed downward into the accommodation space 23 in the soft rubber cover 20. The shape of the chassis 24 can be the same as the shape of the cross section of the cover body 22, and the size of the chassis 24 can be larger than the size of the cross section of the cover body 22. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the shape and size of the chassis 24.

[0039] Furthermore, the chassis 24 and the cover body 22 are integrally formed to facilitate the production of the soft rubber cover 20 and improve the integrity of the soft rubber cover 20 .
