Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of connectors, and in particular to a Type-C connector for high-definition video equipment. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of the electronics industry, traditional smart terminal interfaces can no longer meet consumers' demands for fast, light, thin and beautiful smart terminals. The highlights of the new version of the interface are its slimmer design and faster transmission speed. The biggest feature of the Type-C port's double-sided pluggable interface is that it supports double-sided insertion of the USB interface, which officially solves the problem of USB interface being difficult to insert. It can be inserted from the front or back. At the same time, the USB data cable used with it must also be thinner and lighter. In addition to the traditional USB data transmission function, the Type-C port can also provide high-current charging, as well as HDMI and VGA transmission for high-definition video devices.
[0003] In the prior art, a video connector is used to transfer the video of one client to another client, such as transferring the video from a mobile phone to a TV. The connecting cable of a traditional video connector is fixedly connected to the interface end. When the interface end is damaged during frequent plugging and unplugging, the video connector loses its function. The flexibility of use of this connector is not high, and effective resources cannot be reused, so the cost of use is high. In addition, the interface types used for high-definition video devices on the market are different, resulting in a video connector that can only be adapted to one interface for use. At this time, users are often required to prepare multiple different high-definition connectors, which seriously increases the difficulty of selection for users and is not conducive to the user experience.
[0004] Therefore, the prior art has defects and needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0028] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.
[0029] Example 1
[0030] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a Type-C connector for high-definition video equipment, including a Type-C interface 1, a connecting wire 2, an HDMI interface 3, a connecting swing arm 4 and a DVI interface 5; the Type-C interface 1 is connected to the HDMI interface 3 through the connecting wire 2, one end of the connecting swing arm 4 is hinged to the side end of the HDMI interface 3 through a hollow shaft (not shown), the connecting swing arm 4 can swing around the hollow shaft to expose the HDMI interface 3 for plugging, the DVI interface 5 is arranged at the end of the connecting swing arm 4 away from the HDMI interface 3, the interior of the connecting swing arm 4 is a hollow structure, and the terminal wiring of the DVI interface 5 passes through the hollow shaft and is connected to the connecting wire 2, and locking screws 51 are provided on both sides of the DVI interface 5, and the locking screws 51 are used to connect to the video The threaded hole of the DVI slot on the device is positioned and locked; the Type-C interface 1 can be connected to the video input end of a computer, mobile phone, tablet or camera. When the interface of the video output terminal device is a DVI slot, the DVI interface 5 can be inserted into the corresponding DVI slot and locked with the threaded holes on both sides of the DVI slot through the locking screws 51 to ensure that the connection between the connector and the device is stable and reliable, avoiding poor contact due to movement or shaking; when the interface of the video output terminal device is an HDMI slot, the connecting arm 4 can be swung around the hollow shaft to expose the HDMI interface 3, and the HDMI interface 3 is connected to the corresponding HDMI slot. This connector has both an HDMI interface 3 and a DVI interface 5. Users can choose the appropriate interface for connection according to actual needs to provide more connection options and flexibility, achieve multiple uses with one line, and have good compatibility. The setting of the hollow shaft allows the connecting wire 2 to pass through the space inside the hollow shaft, which makes it easier to wire and connect the wire of the DVI interface 5.
[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the Type-C interface 1 includes a Type-C adapter 11, a magnetic base 12 and a circuit board 13. The Type-C adapter 11 is electrically connected to the magnetic base 12 through magnetism. The circuit board 13 is arranged in the magnetic base 12, and the magnetic base 12 is electrically connected to the connecting wire 2 through the circuit board 13. When the connector needs to be replaced with a different video input terminal device, the Type-C interface 1 needs to be frequently plugged and unplugged. During the plugging and unplugging process of the Type-C interface 1, the metal pins inside the Type-C interface 1 are easily bent or damaged due to frequent plugging and unplugging, resulting in the Type-C interface 1 being unable to be fully inserted into the slot, affecting the transmission effect of the video signal. The Type-C adapter 11 is connected to the magnetic base 12 by magnetic attraction. When the Type-C adapter 11 is damaged, it can be directly replaced without replacing the entire connector, thereby saving costs. In this embodiment, the circuit board 13 can enhance the stability of high-definition video signal transmission and avoid signal interference and data loss.
[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, further, a magnetic circular groove 110 is provided at the bottom of the Type-C adapter 11, and a magnetic boss 120 is provided on the top of the magnetic base 12 for magnetically connecting to the magnetic circular groove 110. With this arrangement, when the user brings the Type-C adapter 11 close to the magnetic base 12, the magnetic boss 120 will automatically align with the magnetic circular groove 110 through magnetic attraction, and the positioning is fast, avoiding tedious plugging and unplugging operations, making the connection more convenient and accurate.
[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, further, a first conductive column 111 is provided in the middle of the magnetic circular groove 110, a receiving hole 121 is provided in the middle of the magnetic boss 120, and a second conductive column 122 is provided in the receiving hole 121 for abutting against the first conductive column 111, thereby realizing stable transmission of video data signals between connectors.
[0034] like Figure 1 As shown, further, hollow clamping arms 41 are provided on both sides of one end of the connecting swing arm 4 close to the HDMI interface 3, and an accommodating gap 400 for accommodating the HDMI interface 3 is provided between the two hollow clamping arms 41, and the hollow shaft is located on the side wall of the hollow clamping arm 41 close to the HDMI interface 3. The setting of the accommodating gap 400 can prevent the HDMI interface 3 from being accidentally collided or damaged during use.
[0035] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, further, the side wall of the Type-C adapter 11 is provided with a step groove 112 for manual gripping and rotation. This arrangement allows users to conveniently grip the Type-C adapter 11 and perform rotational adjustment to adapt to connection requirements at different angles, allowing the connector to be inserted into the device at different angles, thereby improving the flexibility and convenience of the connection.
[0036] like Figure 1 As shown, further, the upper and lower surfaces of the HDMI interface 3 and the DVI interface 5 are provided with anti-slip pads 52. The provision of the anti-slip pads 52 makes it easier for the HDMI interface 3 and the DVI interface 5 to bear force during the plugging and unplugging process, so that the connector is more firmly fixed when inserted into the device, and is not easy to loosen or fall off, thereby maintaining the stability of signal transmission.
[0037] Furthermore, the first conductive pillar 111 and the second conductive pillar 122 are both made of copper. The first conductive pillar 111 and the second conductive pillar 122 made of copper can improve the stability and reliability of video signal transmission, reduce signal loss, and improve the performance of the connector.
[0038] Example 2
[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the difference between the embodiment of the present invention and embodiment 1 is that the present embodiment further includes a winding reel 6, and the connecting wire 2 is wound inside the winding reel 6, and the winding reel 6 is used to wind or release the connecting wire 2. The provision of the winding reel 6 allows the user to adjust the length of the connecting wire 2 as needed to adapt to the distance or connection requirements between different devices, and avoid the connecting wire 2 being too long or too short to affect the user experience; and the winding reel 6 can keep the connecting wire 2 neat and orderly, avoid the connecting wire 2 from being entangled or tangled, and improve the availability and ease of use of the connector. It should be noted that the winding reel 6 is a publicly available prior art, and this embodiment will no longer elaborate on the specific structure and working principle of the winding reel 6.
