Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of USB connecting wires, in particular to a USB connecting wire with an adapter. Background Art

[0002] The applicant has previously applied for a Chinese utility model "A new type of connecting wire with an adapter structure" with a publication number of CN211265903U, which includes a connecting belt and a connecting rope, wherein the two ends of the connecting rope are respectively connected and installed with a first connector and a second connector, wherein a limiting groove is fixed in the middle of one end of the first connector away from the connecting rope, a through hole is provided in the middle of one end of the connecting belt, and the connecting belt is sleeved on the connecting rope through the through hole, and an adapter is fixed on the end of the connecting belt away from the through hole, and the connecting belt is located on one side of the lower end of the adapter, and a limiting groove is provided in the middle of the lower end of the adapter, and the limiting groove is adapted to the limiting head, and the first connector is movably installed on the lower end of the adapter through the limiting head. By setting the adapter, it is convenient to connect different electrical equipment and expand the use range of the adapter. By installing the adapter and the second connector on the electrical equipment, the connection of the electrical equipment is realized, which facilitates the connection and use between the electrical equipment. At the same time, according to the different interfaces of the electrical equipment, the adapter can be sleeved on the first connector to realize the connection of electrical equipment with different interfaces, thereby increasing the use range of the adapter.

[0003] The through hole on the connecting belt is also set: the connecting belt is located at one end of the first connector on the connecting rope, and the diameter of the through hole on the connecting belt is smaller than the width of the first connector. It is found in actual production that when preparing such a connecting wire with an adapter structure, it is necessary to first put the connecting belt with a through hole on the connecting rope after the connecting rope (cable) is obtained, and then weld the connecting rope with the first connector and the second connector, and then mold the insulating seat of the first connector and the second connector. During this process, it is necessary to always pay attention to keep the connecting belt on the connecting rope to prevent the connecting belt from accidentally falling off; and because some workers rotate or change products, before welding the connecting rope with the first connector and the second connector, it is easy to forget to put the connecting belt on the connecting rope first, resulting in product rework, scrapping or use as other types of products (such as a USB cable without an adapter). It is not conducive to improving the production efficiency of such products. Utility Model Content

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0022] See also Figure 1-4 A USB connecting cable with an adapter includes a connecting cable 1, two ends of which are respectively connected to a first connector 2 and a second connector 3, and an adapter 4, to which a flexible connecting belt 5 is connected.

[0023] The flexible connecting belt 5 has a connecting portion 6 at one end away from the adapter 4, and a connecting hole 7 corresponding to the connecting line 1 is passed through the connecting portion 6. An expansion slot 8 is also passed through the connecting portion 6, and the expansion slot 8 extends toward the connecting hole 7 and is connected with the connecting hole 7, forming a connecting port 9 connecting the expansion slot 8 and the connecting hole 7, and a first expansion wing 10 and a second expansion wing 11 are formed on both sides of the expansion slot 8.

[0024] Through the flexibility of the flexible connecting band 5 and the expansion effect of the expansion slot 8, when the flexible connecting band 5 needs to be passed through the first connector 2 or the second connector 3 to be put on the connecting line 1, or when the flexible connecting band 5 needs to be passed through the first connector 2 or the second connector 3 from the connecting line 1 to be removed, the first expansion wing 10 and the second expansion wing 11 can be moved away from each other accordingly, so that the passability of the space connected by the expansion slot 8 and the connecting hole 7 can be expanded, and it can be put on or removed smoothly. When preparing the USB connecting line with the adapter, the connecting line with the first connector and the second connector can be prepared separately, and then the adapter with the flexible connecting band can be assembled with the connecting line, which is more conducive to production and preparation.

[0025] The first connector 2 and the second connector 3 may be Type C connectors, and the adapter 4 may be a Type C to USB-A connector. In other embodiments, the first connector 2 may be a data connector such as a lighting connector, an HDMI connector, etc., the second connector 3 may be a data connector such as a Type-b connector, and the adapter 4 may be used to perform conversion corresponding to the first connector 2 or the second connector 3, such as a lighting to USB-A connector, a lighting to Type C connector, etc.

[0026] The flexible connecting belt 5 can be a flexible connecting belt made of materials such as silicone material, PVC material, TPE material, etc.

[0027] like Figure 3 As shown, the width of the communication port 9 is smaller than 1 / 2 of the diameter of the connecting hole 7 .

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, the extension direction of the expansion slot 8 is the length direction of the flexible connecting belt 5 .

[0029] In an embodiment of the utility model, an elastic return member 12 is connected to the connecting portion 6, and the elastic return member 12 has two force-bearing ends respectively connected to the first extension wing 10 and the second extension wing 11; and is configured so that when the first extension wing 10 and the second extension wing 11 are moved away from each other along the direction in which the expansion slot 8 passes through the connecting portion 6, the elastic return member 12 is correspondingly in an elastic deformation state.

[0030] like Figure 3As shown, the direction in which the expansion slot 8 penetrates the connecting portion 6 corresponds to a direction perpendicular to the plane of the flexible connecting belt 5 .

[0031] Preferably, the elastic reset member 12 is a leaf spring connected to the connecting portion 6. The plane of the leaf spring is parallel to the plane of the flexible connecting belt 5.

[0032] In some embodiments, the leaf spring is arranged in a C shape, with one end 12a of the leaf spring connected to a portion of the first extension wing 10 near the connecting hole 7, and the other end 12b of the leaf spring extends along the circumference of the connecting hole 7 to connect to a portion of the second extension wing 11 near the connecting hole 7.

[0033] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the leaf spring (elastic return member 12 ) has an opening corresponding to the communication port 9 .

[0034] After the flexible connecting belt 5 is sleeved and the connecting wire 1 is located on the connecting hole 7, the elastic restoring function of the elastic restoring member 12 makes it difficult for the flexible connecting belt 5 to fall off the connecting wire 1 during daily use. The elastic restoring member 12 can reinforce the flexible connecting belt 5, making the part near the connecting hole on the flexible connecting belt 5 difficult to crack, effectively avoiding the problem of breaking and falling during use.

[0035] Preferably, the connecting portion 6 is formed by encapsulating the leaf spring.

[0036] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention.
