By setting a lock connected to the sleeve joint movably, the lock can move along the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove, so that part of the lock can enter the receiving groove and engage with the lock matching structure on the plug entering the receiving groove to lock the lock matching structure, thereby locking the plug inserted into the receiving groove, so as to improve the connection strength and stability of the plug formed into a hanging rope shape through the sleeve joint, thereby preventing the situation that the connection strength between the plug and the sleeve joint is insufficient, the stability is poor, and the plugs at both ends are easy to fall off after the data line forms a hanging rope shape. In addition, when the hanging rope is no longer needed, the part of the lock member that enters the receiving groove can also be moved in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to unlock the lock member matching structure and separate the plug from the socket, thereby further improving the flexibility of the connection between the socket and the plug.

[0018] 2. The lock of the utility model includes a contact and pressure portion and a buckle portion exposed from the sleeve joint, part of the buckle portion extends into the receiving groove and engages with the lock matching structure, and the contact and pressure portion moves in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to drive the buckle portion to move in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to lock or unlock the lock matching structure. By providing the contact and pressure portion and the buckle portion, the direction and distance of the buckle portion moving in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove can be controlled by pressing, which is easier for users to operate.

[0019] 3. The receiving groove of the utility model is provided with a bracket and an elastic member, one end of the elastic member is sleeved on the bracket, and the other end of the elastic member is connected to the touch-pressing part, so that after the user presses the touch-pressing part, the touch-pressing part can be reset more timely, thereby driving the buckle part to reset in time.

[0020] 4.

[0042] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first embodiment of the utility model provides a data cable 1, including a line body 11, two plugs 12 respectively connected to the two ends of the line body 11, each plug 12 is detachably connected to a sleeve joint 13 with a receiving groove 131; a lock matching structure 125 is provided on at least one side surface 1221 of the plug 12, and a lock 31 is provided on the sleeve joint 13. The lock 31 is penetrated on the sleeve joint 13 and movably connected with the sleeve joint 13, and a part of the lock 31 extends into the receiving groove 131 and engages with the lock matching structure 125, and the lock 31 moves along the axis direction perpendicular to the receiving groove 131 to lock or unlock the lock matching structure 125.

[0043] Specifically, in view of the problem that the connection strength at both ends of the existing data cable that can be used as a hanging rope is insufficient, the stability is poor, and it is easy to fall off and cannot form a hanging rope shape, this embodiment provides a data cable 1, which includes a wire body 11, two plugs 12 connected to the two ends of the wire body 11 respectively, each plug 12 is detachably connected to a sleeve joint 13 with a receiving groove 131, a first locking structure is provided on the plug 12, and a second locking structure is provided on the sleeve joint 13 corresponding to the first locking structure. The second locking structure is movably connected or fixedly connected to the sleeve joint 13, and when the plug 12 enters the receiving groove 131 in a plug-in manner, the first locking structure is connected to the second locking structure to achieve locking. Therefore, locking is achieved through the corresponding cooperation of the first locking structure and the second locking structure, thereby achieving a firm connection between the plug 12 and the sleeve joint 13, thereby improving the connection strength and stability between the plug 12 and the sleeve joint 13, and avoiding the problem that the connection strength at both ends of the existing data cable that can be used as a hanging rope is insufficient, the stability is poor, and it is easy to fall off and cannot form a hanging rope shape.

[0044] More specifically, in this embodiment, the first lock structure includes a lock matching structure 125, and the lock matching structure 125 is provided on at least one side surface 1221 of the plug 12. The second lock structure provided on the sleeve joint 13 includes a lock 31, and the lock 31 is sleeved on the sleeve joint 13 and movably connected with the sleeve joint 13. The movable direction of the lock 31 on the sleeve joint 13 is specifically to move along the axis direction of the vertical receiving groove 131, and move along the directions indicated by the two ends of the axis of the vertical receiving groove 131, and the directions indicated by the two ends of the axis are opposite. Therefore, the overall movement of the lock 31 can cause the part of the lock 31 that enters the receiving groove 131 to move in the same movement mode and direction. Specifically, when the lock member 31 is moved along the direction indicated by one end of the axis of the receiving groove 131, the part of the lock member 31 that has entered the receiving groove 131 can be moved in the same direction to temporarily move away from the receiving groove 131, so that the plug 12 can be inserted into the receiving groove 131; and after the insertion is completed, the lock member 31 can be moved along the direction of the other end of the axis of the receiving groove 131 to move the part of the lock member 31 that has entered the receiving groove 131 in the same direction, which is opposite to the direction of the previous end, so that the plug 12 can be temporarily moved away from the receiving groove 131. The partial lock 31 of 131 moves to approach the receiving groove 131, and enters the receiving groove 131 to engage with the lock matching structure 125 on the plug 12 entering the receiving groove 131, so as to lock the lock matching structure 125, thereby locking the plug 12 inserted into the receiving groove 131, so as to improve the stability and connection strength of the plug 12 forming a hanging rope shape through the sleeve joint 13, thereby preventing the situation that the connection strength between the plug and the sleeve joint at both ends of the data cable 1 is insufficient, the stability is poor, and it is easy to fall off after the data cable 1 forms a hanging rope shape. In addition, when the hanging rope shape is no longer needed, the partial lock 31 entering the receiving groove 131 can also be moved in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove 131 to unlock the lock matching structure 125, so that the plug 12 is separated from the sleeve joint 13, so as to further improve the flexibility of the connection between the sleeve joint 13 and the plug 12.

[0045] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, the lock 31 includes a contact and pressure portion 311 and a snap portion 312 exposed from the sleeve joint 13, and a portion of the snap portion 312 extends into the receiving groove 131 to engage with the lock matching structure 125. The contact and pressure portion 311 moves along the axis direction perpendicular to the receiving groove 131 to drive the snap portion 312 to move along the axis direction perpendicular to the receiving groove 131 to lock or unlock the lock matching structure 125.

[0046] Specifically, the contact and pressure portion 311 and the buckle portion 312 are integrally formed to form the entire lock 31, thereby improving the stable connection between the contact and pressure portion 311 and the buckle portion 312, and making the overall structural strength of the lock 31 higher. The sleeve 13 can be provided with a first window 152 and a second window 153 corresponding to the contact and pressure portion 311 and the buckle portion 312, respectively. The first window 152 and the second window 153 are both connected to the receiving groove 131, and are arranged opposite to each other, and are both located on the sleeve 13 along the axis direction of the receiving groove 131, thereby realizing that the contact and pressure portion 311 and the buckle portion 312 move along the axis direction of the receiving groove 131. When no pressure is applied, the contact portion 311 is exposed on the surface of the socket 13 through the first window 152, a portion of the snap-fit ​​portion 312 is exposed on the surface of the socket 13 through the second window 153, and another portion of the snap-fit ​​portion 312 is directly located inside the accommodating groove 131. The portion of the snap-fit ​​portion 312 directly located inside the accommodating groove 131 is directly engaged with the locking mating structure 125 on the plug 12, thereby locking the locking mating structure 125. Therefore, the user can press the touch-pressing portion 311 to move the touch-pressing portion 311 from the first window 152 along the axial direction of the receiving groove 131, that is, the touch-pressing portion 311 moves toward the direction close to the receiving groove 131, so that part of the touch-pressing portion 311 enters the receiving groove 131, and drives the buckle portion 312 to move along the axial direction of the receiving groove 131, so that part of the buckle portion 312 starts to move from the second window 153 in the direction away from the receiving groove 131, and the part of the buckle portion 312 that enters the receiving groove 131 leaves the receiving groove 131, so that the plug 12 enters the receiving groove 131 or the lock matching structure 125 that has been engaged and locked with the buckle protrusion 1251 is unlocked, so that the plug 12 is separated from the socket 13.

[0047] It can be understood that in this process, by providing the contact and pressure portion 311 and the buckle portion 312 , the direction and distance of the buckle portion 312 moving along the axis of the receiving groove 131 can be controlled by pressing, which is easier for users to operate.

[0048] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, a bracket 151 and an elastic member 32 are disposed in the accommodating groove 131 , one end of the elastic member 32 is sleeved on the bracket 151 , and the other end of the elastic member 32 is connected to the contact and pressure portion 311 .

[0049] It can be understood that a bracket 151 and an elastic member 32 can be provided in the receiving groove 131, and the elastic member 32 can be wound or sleeved on the bracket 151, so that the elastic member 32 is supported by the bracket 151 to prevent the elastic member 32 from being separated from the receiving groove 131. Specifically, the part of the elastic member 32 that is not connected to the bracket 151 can be directly connected to the contact portion 311, and specifically connected to the side of the contact portion 311 close to the receiving groove 131, so that after the user presses the contact portion 311, the elastic member 32 located on the side of the contact portion 311 close to the receiving groove 131 will also be stressed to generate elastic force, and the elastic force will be directly transmitted to the contact portion 311, so that the contact portion 311 can be reset more timely, thereby driving the buckle portion 312 to reset in time. In addition, the presence of the elastic member 32 also avoids the user's accidental touch, and the user needs sufficient pressing force to press the contact portion 311. In this embodiment, the elastic member 32 may be a torsion spring, or may be other elastic members 32 that can generate elastic force, so as to achieve the reset of the contact and pressure portion 311 .

[0050] See also Figure 3 Furthermore, a positioning groove 3111 is provided on one side of the contact and pressure portion 311 close to the accommodating groove 131 , and a portion of the bent section 321 of the elastic member 32 is located in the positioning groove 3111 .

[0051] It can be understood that one end of the elastic member 32 can be sleeved on the bracket 151, and the other end is the starting point and the end point of the elastic member 32, and the starting point and the end point are directly connected to the side of the contact and pressure portion 311 close to the receiving groove 131. The part of the elastic member 32 sleeved on the bracket 151 can form an arch, thereby increasing the sleeve area of ​​the elastic member 32 as much as possible, and increasing the sleeve stability, so that the support effect of the bracket 151 on the elastic member 32 is maximized. The middle area of ​​the elastic member 32 that forms the arch forms a bent portion, and the contact and pressure portion 311 can be provided with a positioning groove 3111 corresponding to the bent section 321, and the positioning groove 3111 is also located in the middle area of ​​the side of the contact and pressure portion 311 close to the receiving groove 131. Therefore, by positioning the top of the bent section 321 in the positioning groove 3111, after the user presses the touch-pressing portion 311, the force transmitted by the touch-pressing portion 311 can be transmitted from the starting point, the end point and the bent section 321 of the elastic member 32, so that the force on the elastic member 32 as a whole is more uniform. At the same time, the contact area between the elastic member 32 and the touch-pressing portion 311 is increased, the supporting effect of the elastic member 32 on the touch-pressing portion 311 is achieved, and the resetting effect of the elastic member 32 on the touch-pressing portion 311 is also improved.

[0052] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, a limit block 3121 is provided on one side of the buckle portion 312 close to the accommodating groove 131 , and the limit block 3121 is engaged with the lock matching structure 125 , and the limit block 3121 moves along the axis direction perpendicular to the accommodating groove 131 to lock or unlock the lock matching structure 125 .

[0053] It can be understood that the portion of the buckle portion 312 that enters the receiving groove 131 is the stopper 3121, and the stopper 3121 is directly located in the receiving groove 131 when not pressed. When the socket connector 13 needs to be plugged in, the contact and pressure portion 311 can be pressed to make the stopper 3121 move along the axis of the receiving groove 131 along the buckle portion 312 and leave the current position in the receiving groove 131, so that the plug 12 enters the receiving groove 131, and the lock matching structure 125 is located at a position corresponding to the stopper 3121. At this time, the pressing can be stopped, and the contact and pressure portion 311 drives the buckle portion 312 to move along the same axial direction perpendicular to the accommodating groove 131, but in the opposite axial direction to the previous pressing, so that the contact and pressure portion 311 and the buckle portion 312 are reset, that is, the limit block 3121 is reset, so that the limit block 3121 engages with the lock matching structure 125, that is, the side of the limit block 3121 facing away from the notch of the accommodating groove 131 abuts against the side of the lock matching structure 125 close to the wire body 11, thereby locking the lock matching structure 125 through the engagement of the limit block 3121 with the lock matching structure 125. When the socket connector 13 is no longer needed, the contact portion 311 can be pressed in the same manner, so that the contact portion 311 drives the limit block 3121 on the buckle portion 312 to move along the axis direction perpendicular to the accommodating groove 131, that is, to move in a direction away from the accommodating groove 131, so that the limit block 3121 leaves the current position and unlocks the lock matching structure 125.

[0054] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, a limiting protrusion 3122 is provided on a side of the buckle portion 312 facing away from the accommodating groove 131 , and the limiting protrusion 3122 abuts against the side wall of the sleeve joint 13 .

[0055] It can be understood that a limiting protrusion 3122 can be provided on the surface of the buckle portion 312, that is, on the side of the buckle portion 312 facing away from the receiving groove 131, and the limiting protrusion 3122 can abut against the side wall of the sleeve joint 13, that is, the window wall of the second window 153, thereby limiting the position of the buckle portion 312 when not pressed, and limiting the buckle portion 312 to the current position. And limit the distance that the buckle portion 312 moves toward one end of the contacting portion 311 along the axis direction of the receiving groove 131 vertically, that is, limit the distance that the buckle portion 312 moves into the receiving groove 131 along the axis direction of the receiving groove 131 vertically, so as to prevent the buckle portion 312 from extending too much into the receiving groove 131 and affecting the stability of the connection between the locking member 31 as a whole and the sleeve joint 13.

[0056] It should be noted that the lock member matching structure 125 can be a clamping protrusion 1251 or a clamping groove 1252. This first embodiment provides an example in which the lock member matching structure 125 is a clamping protrusion 1251. For details, please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The middle lock matching structure 125 is a snap-fit ​​protrusion 1251. Further, the plug 12 includes a connector 121 and a housing 122 sleeved on the connector 121, the connector 121 is connected to the line body 11, and two lock matching structures 125 are arranged on each of two opposite side surfaces 1221 of the housing 122, and the two lock matching structures 125 on each side surface 1221 are symmetrically arranged.

[0057] Specifically, the wire body 11 is a wire body 11 that can be used to charge or transmit data to an electronic device. The plug 12 includes a connector 121, a shell 122, and a data interface 123 connected to the connector 121 and the wire body 11. The connector 121 wraps the part where the data interface 123 is connected to the wire body 11, thereby protecting the connection between the data interface 123 and the wire body 11. The shell 122 is sleeved on the surface of the connector 121 and covers most of the area of ​​the connector 121, preferably at least wrapping four-fifths of the area of ​​the connector 121, so that the connector 121 is protected by the shell 122. In this embodiment, there is no restriction on the type of the data interface 123 in the two plugs 12 connected to the two ends of the same wire body 11, and the type can be the same or different. The type of the data interface 123 includes but is not limited to a USB interface, a Micro USB interface, a Type C interface, and a Lightning interface.

[0058] It can be understood that when the locking member matching structure 125 is a snap-fit ​​protrusion 1251, by setting the shell 122 to socket the connecting member 121, the connecting member 121 can be better protected by the shell 122, and setting the snap-fit ​​protrusion 1251 on the shell 122 can also avoid the impact of the connecting member 121 when the shell 122 is connected to the socket joint 13.

[0059] It should be noted that in this embodiment, there is no limit to the number of the engaging protrusions 1251, and at least one engaging protrusion 1251 may be provided on one side 1221 of the housing 122, or two symmetrical engaging protrusions 1251 may be provided on one side 1221 of the plug 12. The number of the limit blocks 3121 may correspond to the number of the engaging protrusions 1251.

[0060] Optionally, one clamping protrusion 1251 may be provided on one side 1221 of the housing 122, and no clamping protrusion 1251 may be provided on the other side 1221, so that the structure is simpler and easier to operate. A clamping protrusion 1251 may also be provided on each of the two side 1221 of the housing 122 to improve the locking effect. A clamping protrusion 1251 may also be provided on each side 1221 of the housing 122 to further improve the clamping effect.

[0061] In this embodiment, it is preferred that the two side surfaces 1221 of the housing 122 are respectively provided with a snap-on protrusion 1251. Specifically, two snap-on protrusions 1251 are provided on each of the two opposite side surfaces 1221 of the housing 122, and the two snap-on protrusions 1251 on each side surface 1221 are symmetrically arranged. The number and position of the upper limit blocks 3121 of the buckle portion 312 need to correspond one-to-one with the area where the snap-on protrusions 1251 are arranged on the housing 122, that is, the buckle portion 312 is provided with two limit blocks 3121, and the two limit blocks 3121 are arranged opposite to each other, so as to correspond one-to-one with the area where the snap-on protrusions 1251 are arranged on the housing 122, thereby achieving a one-to-one locking effect between the snap-on protrusions 1251 and the limit blocks 3121. The two side surfaces 1221 of the clamping protrusion 1251 are arranged to be opposite and facing each other, and the two clamping protrusions 1251 on one side surface 1221 that are symmetrical are also symmetrical with the two clamping protrusions 1251 on the other opposite side surface 1221, so that the plug 12 as a whole can also be symmetrical. Therefore, whether the plug 12 is plugged in the forward direction or rotated 180 degrees in the reverse direction, the two clamping protrusions 1251 on the two opposite side surfaces 1221 are engaged and locked with the corresponding limit blocks 3121, making it more convenient for users to use. In addition, two clamping protrusions 1251 are respectively arranged on the two opposite side surfaces 1221 of the housing 122, so that the clamping protrusions 1251 are symmetrically distributed compared with the entire plug 12, so that after being locked with the limit blocks 3121, the locking force is more uniform, and the locking effect after the plug 12 and the socket 13 are connected can be more balanced, so as to improve the stability of the connection between the two, and avoid the situation of unilateral locking and unstable engagement. At the same time, the locking effect after the socket 13 and the plug 12 are connected and locked can be further improved.

[0062] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, the connecting member 121 is connected to a data interface 123 , and a waterproof member 51 is provided at the location where the connecting member 121 is connected to the data interface 123 . The waterproof member 51 covers the boundary of the shell 122 corresponding to the location where the connecting member 121 is connected to the data interface 123 .

[0063] It can be understood that, as an optional embodiment, a waterproof member 51 can be provided at the location where the connector 121 is connected to the data interface 123. The waterproof member 51 can be inserted between the housing 122 and the connector 121 from the location where the connector 121 is connected to the data interface 123 by plugging, and covers the corresponding housing 122 at the connection location, thereby sealing the connection location to prevent liquid from entering the inside of the plug 12 from the connection location and affecting the electrical connection inside the plug 12. In this embodiment, preferably, the waterproof member 51 can be a waterproof soft rubber ring, so that the gap between the housing 122 and the connector 121 corresponding to the location where the connector 121 is connected to the data interface 123 is filled by the elastic waterproof soft rubber ring, thereby achieving sealing at this location.

[0064] As another optional embodiment, the waterproof component 51 may not be provided, and the shell 122 may be provided to extend toward one end of the data interface 123 to directly wrap and cover the connection position between the connector 121 and the data interface 123, so that the connection position between the connector 121 and the data interface 123 is directly sealed by the shell 122 to achieve sealing at the connection position and prevent liquid or dust from entering therefrom.

[0065] See also Figure 2-Figure 5 Furthermore, a limiting area 126 is formed between the area on the housing 122 where the lock matching structure 125 is provided and the lock matching structure 125 , and the limiting block 3121 enters the limiting area 126 and engages and locks with the lock matching structure 125 .

[0066] It can be understood that when the lock matching structure 125 is a snap-fitting protrusion 1251, a limiting area 126 can be provided on the housing 122, and the limiting area 126 is formed by the area on the housing 122 where the lock matching structure 125 is provided and the lock matching structure 125, that is, the limiting area 126 is formed by the area on the housing 122 where the snap-fitting protrusion 1251 is provided and the snap-fitting protrusion 1251, and the number of limiting areas 126 is consistent with the number of snap-fitting protrusions 1251 and corresponds to the snap-fitting protrusions 1251. Therefore, after the plug 12 enters the receiving groove 131, the limiting block 3121 can enter the limiting area 126 and abut against the snap-fitting protrusion 1251. At this time, the limiting block 3121 and the snap-fitting protrusion 1251 will not be able to move along the insertion direction or the extraction direction of the plug 12 into the receiving groove 131, thereby achieving the locking of the snap-fitting protrusion 1251 by the limiting block 3121. The limiting area 126 can limit the limiting block 3121 and the engaging protrusion 1251 to the current position, preventing the engaging protrusion 1251 from further extending into the receiving groove 131; at the same time, it can also limit the insertion depth of the plug 12 into the receiving groove 131, preventing the receiving groove 131 from being inserted too deeply and misaligned with the limiting block 3121.

[0067] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 Furthermore, a buckle portion 137 is provided at one end of the sleeve joint 13 away from the notch of the accommodating groove 131 , and the buckle portion 137 is isolated from the accommodating groove 131 .

[0068] It can be understood that the sleeve connector 13 is specifically connected to other structures except the data cable 1 and the plug 12 of the data cable 1 through the buckle portion 137. The buckle portion 137 is isolated from the receiving groove 131. After the sleeve connector 13 is connected to the plug 12, the plug 12 located in the receiving groove 131 is also isolated from the buckle portion 137, so that when the buckle portion 137 is connected to other structures, the influence of other structures on the plug 12 can be avoided.

[0069] As an optional embodiment, the buckle portion 137 may form a buckle hole 1371, and a fastener 138 may be provided on the buckle hole 1371. After the sleeve 13 is connected to the plug 12, the sleeves 13 at both ends of the same wire body 11 may be connected together through the fastener 138, so that the data cable 1 as a whole forms a hanging rope. By providing the buckle hole 1371 and the fastener 138, the formed hanging rope shape can be made more stable.

[0070] As another optional implementation, the buckle portion 137 can be directly formed into a hanging buckle, so that the buckle portion 137 on the socket connector 13 connected directly through the two plugs 12 at both ends of the same line body 11 is directly connected to the same hanging buckle position, so that the data cable 1 is formed into a hanging rope as a whole. By setting the buckle portion 137 to directly form a hanging buckle, the hanging buckle method can be more flexible and can be used in more scenarios.

[0071] See also Figure 6 The utility model provides a second embodiment. The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the lock matching structure 125 in the second embodiment is a snap-fit ​​groove 1252, while the lock matching structure 125 in the first embodiment is a snap-fit ​​protrusion 1251.

[0072] When the lock member matching structure 125 is a snap-fit ​​groove 1252, the specific setting position of the limit block 3121 on the sleeve joint 13 is also located on the snap-fit ​​portion 312, and can be specifically located on the side of the snap-fit ​​portion 312 directly opposite to the elastic member 32. At the same time, the position of the snap-fit ​​groove 1252 on the housing 122 must correspond to the position of the limit block 3121. Therefore, when the plug 12 enters the receiving groove, the limit block 3121 can enter the snap-fit ​​groove 1252 and abut against the groove wall of the snap-fit ​​groove 1252, thereby locking the plug 12.

[0073] Specifically, a snap-in groove 1252 may be provided on one side surface of the shell 122, corresponding one-to-one to the limit block 3121; or a snap-in groove 1252 may be provided on two opposite side surfaces of the shell 122, respectively, that is, one limit block 3121 corresponds to two opposite and symmetrically arranged snap-in grooves 1252, thereby achieving that the snap-in groove 1252 and the limit block 3121 can be snap-locked regardless of whether the plug 12 is forwardly plugged in or rotated 180 degrees in reverse plugging.

[0074] Compared with the prior art, the data cable of the utility model has the following advantages:

[0075] 1. The data cable provided by the utility model includes a wire body and two plugs connected to the two ends of the wire body respectively, each plug is detachably connected to a sleeve joint with a receiving groove; a lock matching structure is arranged on at least one side of the plug, a lock is arranged on the sleeve joint, the lock is inserted into the sleeve joint and movably connected to the sleeve joint, part of the lock extends into the receiving groove and engages with the lock matching structure, and the lock moves along the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to lock or unlock the lock matching structure. By setting a lock connected to the sleeve joint movably, the lock can move along the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove, so that part of the lock can enter the receiving groove and engage with the lock matching structure on the plug entering the receiving groove to lock the lock matching structure, thereby locking the plug inserted into the receiving groove, so as to improve the connection strength and stability of the plug formed into a hanging rope shape through the sleeve joint, thereby preventing the situation that the connection strength between the plug and the sleeve joint is insufficient, the stability is poor, and the plugs at both ends are easy to fall off after the data line forms a hanging rope shape. In addition, when the hanging rope is no longer needed, the part of the lock member that enters the receiving groove can also be moved in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to unlock the lock member matching structure and separate the plug from the socket, thereby further improving the flexibility of the connection between the socket and the plug.

[0076] 2. The lock of the utility model includes a contact and pressure portion and a buckle portion exposed from the sleeve joint, part of the buckle portion extends into the receiving groove and engages with the lock matching structure, and the contact and pressure portion moves in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to drive the buckle portion to move in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove to lock or unlock the lock matching structure. By providing the contact and pressure portion and the buckle portion, the direction and distance of the buckle portion moving in the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove can be controlled by pressing, which is easier for users to operate.

[0077] 3. The receiving groove of the utility model is provided with a bracket and an elastic member, one end of the elastic member is sleeved on the bracket, and the other end of the elastic member is connected to the touch-pressing part, so that after the user presses the touch-pressing part, the touch-pressing part can be reset more timely, thereby driving the buckle part to reset in time.

[0078] 4. A positioning groove is provided on one side of the touch-pressing portion of the utility model close to the accommodating groove, and a partial bent section of the elastic member is located in the positioning groove, thereby increasing the contact area between the elastic member and the touch-pressing portion, achieving the supporting effect of the elastic member on the touch-pressing portion, and also improving the resetting effect of the elastic member on the touch-pressing portion.

[0079] 5. A limiting protrusion is provided on the side of the buckle part of the utility model that is away from the receiving groove, and the limiting protrusion abuts against the side wall of the sleeve joint, thereby limiting the distance that the buckle part moves along the direction perpendicular to the axis of the receiving groove, thereby preventing the buckle part from extending too much into the receiving groove and affecting the stability of the connection between the locking element and the sleeve joint.

[0080] 6. The plug of the utility model includes a connector and a shell sleeved on the connector, the connector is connected to the wire body, and two lock matching structures are arranged on each of the two opposite side surfaces of the shell, and the two lock matching structures on each side surface are symmetrically arranged, so that the two lock matching structures on each side surface are symmetrical, so that the plug can be locked with the socket through the lock matching structure in both the forward and reverse directions. In addition, the two lock matching structures on a plug that are relatively distributed can better balance the locking effect after the plug and the socket are connected, so as to improve the stability of the connection between the two and avoid unilateral locking and unstable engagement.

[0081] 7. A limiting zone is formed between the area where the lock matching structure is set on the shell of the utility model and the lock matching structure. The limiting block enters the limiting zone and engages and locks with the lock matching structure, thereby limiting the lock matching structure to the current position and preventing the lock matching structure from continuing to extend into the accommodating groove; at the same time, it can also limit the depth of the plug inserted into the accommodating groove, preventing the accommodating groove from being inserted too deeply and misaligned with the limiting block.

[0082] 8. A buckle portion is provided at one end of the sleeve of the utility model which is away from the notch of the receiving groove, and the buckle portion is isolated from the receiving groove. Therefore, after the sleeve is connected to the plug, the plug located in the receiving groove is also isolated from the buckle portion, thereby avoiding the influence of other structures on the plug when the buckle portion is connected to other structures.

[0083] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
