Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of data line interface design, in particular to a data line USB head integrated flip cover structure using an inner mold as a guide rail. Background Art

[0002] The USB head of the data cable with a flip cover structure is unique in that the flip cover is not just a simple protective cover or lid, but allows the flip cover to be combined or separated from the main body after connection or disconnection, thereby forming another data cable connection port.

[0003] Specifically, when the user needs to connect the data cable to a different type of device, the user can flip or remove the flap to expose another interface hidden inside, such as Micro USB, USB-C or other types of interfaces. This design not only provides users with more connection options, but also saves the trouble of carrying multiple different types of data cables.

[0004] In the prior art, in order to achieve stable connection and flexible conversion between the flip cover and the main body, a complex mechanical structure and connection mechanism are usually required, wherein hook rods and card points are commonly used connection methods, which are combined with tracks on both sides of the USB interface to achieve telescopic and flipping functions.

[0005] Currently, the industry Figure 1 As shown, the hook rod and the clamping point are usually matched by setting a slideway 21 on the metal shell 20. However, in order to prevent the hook and the clamping point from slipping on the slideway 21 due to misoperation, an arc-shaped protrusion 22 is set at the slideway entrance of the slideway as a limit structure. However, since the clamping point is usually made of metal, when the metal clamping point passes through the arc-shaped protrusion and enters the slideway, it often leaves scratches on the metal surface. This not only affects the aesthetics of the product, but also generates a lot of noise due to the friction between the metals.

[0006] To solve this problem, some manufacturers try to add buffer materials to the card points or slides to reduce direct contact between metals. However, this approach will increase manufacturing costs and assembly complexity, and the buffer materials are prone to wear after long-term use, reducing the service life of the product.

[0007] Therefore, how to design a new data cable USB head flip cover structure to reduce friction between metals, reduce noise and avoid scratches has become a technical problem to be solved by the utility model. Utility Model Content

[0008] The technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide a data cable USB head integrated flip cover structure using an inner mold as a guide rail to solve the problem of scratches and noise caused by friction between the metal card point and the slide proposed in the background technology.

[0009] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solutions adopted by the utility model are as follows:

[0010] A data line USB head integrated flip cover structure using an inner mold as a guide rail comprises a first data line connector and a second data line connector matching the first data line connector.

[0011] The data cable USB head integrated flip cover structure using the inner mold as a guide rail also includes a slideway notch, a slideway plane, a slide-in transition protrusion, a hook rod and a hanging point column;

[0012] The first data line connector comprises an inner mold housing and an outer mold housing, wherein the outer mold housing is sleeved on the inner mold housing, and the outer mold housing is fixedly connected to the inner mold housing;

[0013] On the first data line connector, slideway notches are respectively arranged on both sides of the outer mold shell, and the slideway notches expose the side portions of the inner mold shell at the slideway notches to form a slideway plane;

[0014] The slideway notch includes a slide-in end, and a slide-in transition protrusion is fixedly arranged at the slide-in end of the slideway notch on the slideway plane;

[0015] Slide in the transition protrusion and fix it to the inner mold shell;

[0016] Hook rods are fixedly provided on both sides of the second data cable connector, and hanging point columns cooperating with the slide are fixedly provided on the inner side of the hook rods. The hook rods on both sides of the second data cable connector are respectively slidably limitedly cooperated with the slide notches on both sides of the first data cable connector through the hanging point columns.

[0017] As a further solution of the utility model, the sliding transition protrusion and the inner mold shell are an integrated structure.

[0018] As a further solution of the utility model, the hook rod and the hanging point column are an integrated structure.

[0019] As a further solution of the utility model, each corner of the hook rod and the hanging point column is respectively provided with an arc transition.

[0020] As a further solution of the utility model, the first data line connector also includes an insertion connection end, and the sliding end of the slideway notch is located near the connection end of the first data line connector.

[0021] As a further solution of the utility model, the sliding direction of the hanging point column on the notch of the slideway is on the same horizontal line as the plug-in connection direction of the first data cable connector.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0023] 1. Taking advantage of the fact that the inner mold shell is usually made of non-metallic materials such as plastic, compared with traditional metal slides, the non-metallic slide plane effectively avoids direct contact between metals, thereby fundamentally eliminating the scratches and noise problems caused by metal friction. This not only significantly improves the aesthetics and comfort of the product, but also creates a quieter use environment for users.

[0024] 2. Compared with the traditional metal slide design which often requires complex processing technology and high-precision assembly requirements, the design of the inner mold shell as the slide plane further simplifies the overall structure and reduces the complexity and cost of the manufacturing process.

[0037] Embodiment 1:

[0038] Taking advantage of the fact that the inner mold shell 8 is usually made of non-metallic materials such as plastic relative to the outer mold shell 9, the slide plane 4 is set on the inner mold shell 8 to avoid direct contact between metals, thereby reducing the generation of scratches and noise.

[0039] Specifically, slide notches 3 are provided on both sides of the outer mold shell 9 of the first data cable connector 1. This design exposes part of the side of the inner mold shell 8 to form a slide plane 4. At the same time, in order to further enhance the stability of the structure and the smoothness of sliding, a sliding-in transition protrusion 5 is fixedly provided at the sliding-in end 10 of the slide notch 3. This protrusion is fixedly connected to the inner mold shell 8. A more preferred design is that the sliding-in transition protrusion 5 and the inner mold shell 8 adopt an integrated structure, which not only enhances the overall structural strength but also simplifies the production process.

[0040] Hook rods 6 are fixedly provided on both sides of the second data line connector 2, and hanging point columns 7 matching with the slideway are fixed on the inner side of the hook rods 6, so that the second data line connector 2 can slide stably and smoothly on the slideway of the first data line connector 1.

[0041] In actual application, when the user needs to connect the data cable to different types of devices, the second data cable connector 2 can be unplugged through the sliding guide of the slideway notch 3 on the first data cable connector 1, the card connection between the first data cable connector 1 and the second data cable connector 2 can be cancelled, and then the second data cable connector 2 (i.e., the flip cover part) can be removed by flipping or directly unplugging it completely, thereby exposing the first data cable connector 1. Due to the design of the inner mold shell 8 forming the slideway plane 4, direct contact between metals is completely avoided in this process, so no scratches or harsh noises will be generated.
