Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of charging devices, in particular to a retractable data line device. Background Art

[0002] Since traditional data cables are generally long and inconvenient to carry, if they are placed directly on a table or in a bag, they are easily entangled with themselves and other items, causing inconvenience in use. For this reason, people have invented various single-pull and double-pull retractable data cables, the basic structure of which is to set a rotatable wheel core assembly in the shell, and the data cable is wound on the wheel core assembly to achieve winding. For example, the single-pull retractable data cable, its wire material includes a fixed end and a movable end, the fixed end cannot be stretched, and the movable end can be stretched. In order to achieve the transmission of current and signals between the fixed end and the movable end, it is generally necessary to set a switching mechanism to achieve electrical switching. The traditional approach is to set two plates, one moving and one static, which can rotate relative to each other, such as the moving plate is a circuit board, and a conductive ring is set on it. The static plate is provided with an electrical connector, and the electrical connector has an arc-shaped conductive spring sheet, the conductive spring sheet is in contact with the conductive ring, and the fixed end is connected to the electrical connector, so that the movable end can be electrically connected to the fixed end when the circuit board rotates (the main difference between double pull and single pull is that both plates are rotatable and both are movable ends). However, since the electrical connector needs to be assembled after the static board is formed, and the electrical connector itself is small in size, the assembly operation is relatively complicated, the assembly efficiency is low, and the technical requirements of the workers are high. In addition, since the electrical connector is always under the pressure of the dynamic board, the stability is poor, and the probability of failure after long-term use is high. If the electrical connector fails, the entire data cable device will be scrapped, thereby affecting the service life and increasing the cost. Utility Model Content

The circuit board 3 is installed on the wheel core assembly 2 and is opposite to the adapter board 5 (the positions of the circuit board 3 and the adapter board 5 can also be swapped). One end of the data line is wound around the wheel core assembly 2 and connected to the circuit board 3; a conductive ring 31 is provided on the circuit board 3, and the adapter board 5 is electrically connected to the circuit board 3 by contacting the conductive ring 31 through a conductive spring 41 thereon, and the conductive spring 41 extends out of the surface of the adapter board 5; a plurality of conductive circles 4 are provided on the adapter board 5, and the conductive circles 4 are open structures (non-closed loops) and are separated from each other, and the other end of the data line is electrically connected to the conductive circle 4; the conductive spring 41 is bent from the conductive circle 4, each conductive spring 41 corresponds to a conductive circle 4, and the conductive spring 41 and the conductive circle 4 are an integral structure.

[0022] The conductive spring sheet 41 is formed into an arc-shaped structure by punching on the conductive ring 4 and exposed outside the adapter plate 5 .

[0023] The conductive ring 4 is embedded in the adapter plate 5 by injection molding to form an integral component with the adapter plate 5. The adapter plate 5 is made of plastic.

[0025] A punching hole 51 is provided on the adapter plate 5 at a position corresponding to the conductive spring sheet 41. A punching device is used to punch the conductive ring 4 through the punching hole 51 to form the conductive spring sheet 41.

[0026] Punching holes 52 are provided on the adapter plate 5 at positions aligned with the separation gaps between the conductive rings 4 , and a punching device is used to cut off the connecting arms connecting the adjacent conductive rings 4 through the punching holes 52 .

[0027] First, the whole copper sheet is punched into a structure having several (for example, four) annular parts (i.e., conductive rings 4) + conductive arms 42, and an uncut part (i.e., connecting arms) is left between adjacent annular parts. In this way, each conductive ring 4 is still connected as a whole, relatively fixed, and convenient for transportation, alignment and other operations. When the adapter plate 5 is injection molded, the whole conductive ring 4 is placed in the mold for injection molding, and the conductive ring 4 is buried in the fixed plate 5, and the head end surface of the conductive arm 42 is exposed on the surface of the adapter plate 5 so as to be connected to the fixed end of the data line (fixed wire 62).

The punching hole 51 and the punching hole 52 are punched / punched by the punching / punching device, so that the conductive spring sheet 41 is punched out and extends from the other end of the punching hole 51, and the connecting arm is cut off at the same time, so that the conductive rings 4 are not connected to each other, and insulation is achieved.

[0028] The conductive ring 4 is made of copper sheet, and the head end of the conductive ring 4 extends outward to form a conductive arm 42. The head of the conductive arm 42 is exposed from the surface of the adapter plate 5 and is electrically connected to the other end of the data line.
