Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of data cable connector protection, and particularly relates to a data cable interface protection device for a data cable interface. Background Art

[0002] A data cable connector is a connector used for mating and plugging with a working device, such as an HDMI data cable connector, a USB data cable connector, etc. Since the data cable connector is the interface end where the data cable transmits signals to the working device, the electrical connection effect of the data cable connector affects the data transmission effect. For example, when dust falls into the data cable connector, it is likely to cause low stability of the electrical connection during data transmission, such as poor contact. At the same time, the dust in the data cable connector is likely to contaminate the interface of the working device.

[0003] At the same time, since the data cable connector contains a large number of densely distributed pin needles or pin slots, once the connector of the data cable is contaminated with dust, it is simply impossible to effectively clean it up.

[0004] Moreover, due to the densely distributed pin needles or pin slots of the data cable connector, the connector of the data cable is prone to impact deformation during use, storage or transportation. After the impact deformation, the connector of the data cable is deformed, and the deformed connector cannot be plugged and matched with the interface of the working device, and even if it is matched in time, signal transmission cannot be achieved.

[0005] Most of the existing data cables are naked data cables, and their interfaces are mostly exposed, resulting in the interfaces being extremely prone to dust accumulation and deformation. As a result, the entire data cable cannot be used normally. Summary of the Utility Model

[0019] The abutment seat is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the lower cover portion.

[0020] Preferably, the lower cover portion is threadedly connected to the protection tube.

[0021] Preferably, the lower end of the protection tube is threadedly connected with a bottom shell tube;

[0022] The bottom shell tube comprises a detachable first shell tube portion and a second shell tube portion;

[0023] The tops of the first shell tube part and the second shell tube part are both integrally formed with threaded connection parts, and the threaded connection parts are threadedly connected to the pipe opening of the protection pipe.

[0024] Preferably, the first shell tube portion and the second shell tube portion are clamped together by a clamping structure;

[0025] The clamping structure includes clamping seats integrally formed on both sides of the edge of the first shell tube part respectively. The clamping structure further includes a clamping groove formed on the second shell tube part.

[0045] Embodiment 1

[0046] As Figure 1-8 shown, a data cable interface protection device for a data cable interface includes a protection tube 1, and a cap mechanism 2 is detachably assembled and connected to the top of the protection tube 1; the cap mechanism 2 includes a lower cover portion 21 installed on the protection tube 1 (the installation method of the lower cover portion 21 is: the lower cover portion 21 has a threaded structure and is connected to the protection tube 1 through threading) and an upper buckle cover 22 hinged to the lower cover portion 21.

[0047] The upper buckle cover 22 is hinged to the left end of the lower cover portion 21, and the right end of the upper buckle cover 22 is locked and opened through a buckle lock mechanism 23. The buckle lock mechanism 23 is used to conveniently open the upper buckle cover 22 and fully lock it after closing the upper buckle cover 22.

[0048] Specifically, the buckle lock mechanism 23 includes a hinge ear seat 211 fixedly connected to the lower cover portion 21, and a buckle lock rod 232 is hinged to the hinge ear seat 211 (the hinging method is: the shape of the buckle lock rod 232 is U-shaped, and the lower ends of the buckle lock rod 232 are vertically bent inward to form a hinge shaft, and in this way, it is hinged in the hinge hole of the hinge ear seat 211).

[0049] At the same time, a buckle seat 221 is fixedly connected to the upper buckle cover 22 and is buckled on the buckle lock rod 232. Turning the buckle lock rod 232 until the buckle lock rod 232 is buckled on the top of the buckle seat 221 realizes locking, and vice versa, turning the buckle lock rod 232 until the buckle lock rod 232 is disengaged from the buckle seat 221 realizes unlocking.

[0050] The above-mentioned buckle mechanism 23 further includes an unlocking structure; the unlocking structure includes a pressing handle 231 hinged on the hinge ear seat 211. A pin shaft 2312 hinged on the hinge ear seat 211 is fixedly connected inside the pressing handle 231. A compression spring 23121 abutting against the hinge ear seat 211 is connected to the pin shaft 2312. The upper end of the pressing handle 231 is latched inside the buckle seat 221.

[0051] Specifically, the compression spring 23121 includes a cylindrical spring portion sleeved on the pin shaft. The cylindrical spring portion is integrally formed with a compression spring rod portion for pressing against the hinge ear seat 211. When the hand touches the pressing handle 231, at this time, the pressing handle 231 flips. During the flipping process, the compression spring rod portion elastically presses against the hinge ear seat 211.

[0052] At the same time, a buckle groove is formed on the above-mentioned buckle seat 221. The upper end of the pressing handle 231 is latched in the buckle groove; a buckle locking bar 2211 for buckling and hanging the pressing handle 231 is fixedly connected in the buckle groove. Specifically, a buckle claw portion 2311 is integrally formed at the upper end of the pressing handle 231. The buckle claw portion 2311 is buckled and hung on the buckle locking bar 2211. When the hand presses the pressing handle 231, the pressing handle 231 flips outward until the buckle claw portion 2311 is disengaged from the buckle locking bar 2211 to achieve unlocking. The direction operation realizes locking the upper buckle cover 22 by using the pressing handle 231.

[0053] After the pressing handle 231 is pressed and unlocked through the compression spring 23121, the pressing handle 231 can always keep the buckle claw portion 2311 and the buckle locking bar 2211 in the buckle seat 221 in a separated state. At the same time, during the unlocking process of the compression spring 23121, as long as the hand presses, the buckle claw portion 2311 can be buckled in the buckle lock, and thus the operation is very convenient and labor-saving.

[0054] When the pressing handle 231 is locked, at this time, the buckle locking rod 232 is flipped to be buckled and hung on the buckle seat 221. Under the double buckle, the locking stability of the upper buckle cover 22 is very high, and thus effectively avoids that during the use process, when the cover body is not fully fastened and the cover body becomes loose, the data line connector is likely to protrude from the protection tube 1.

[0055] At the same time, a plastic shell 2321 is sleeved on the upper end of the above-mentioned buckle locking rod 232. Through the plastic shell 2321, it is realized that the buckling position of the buckle locking rod 232 and the buckle seat 221 is prevented from being severely scratched by the soft sleeve 2321, resulting in the defect that it cannot be buckled tightly after deformation.

[0056] Embodiment 2

[0057] As Figure 1-8As shown in the figure, on the basis of the structure of Embodiment 1, in order to facilitate the automatic flipping of the upper cover 22 after unlocking, so as to facilitate the operator to take out the data cable connector, the upper cover 22 and the lower cover part 21 are hinged through a spring hinge structure 24. Through the spring hinge structure 24, after the upper cover 22 and the lower cover part 21 are unlocked, the upper cover 22 automatically pops open, quickly exposing the upper cover 22, which is convenient for taking the connector.

[0058] Specifically, the spring hinge structure 24 includes a lower ear seat 242 fixedly connected to the lower cover part 21. The spring hinge structure 24 further includes a hinge ear 241 fixedly connected to the upper cover 22. A torsion spring mounting part 2411 is integrally formed at the lower end of the hinge ear 241. A torsion spring 244 is installed in the torsion spring mounting part 2411. A pin rod 243 is sleeved in the spring cavity of the torsion spring 244, and the pin rod 243 is hinged to the lower ear seat 242.

[0059] At the same time, similar to the above compression spring 23121, a touch pressure rod part is integrally formed on the torsion spring 244, and the touch pressure rod part touches the side wall of the lower cover part 21.

[0060] Correspondingly, a contact seat 2421 (the contact seat 2421 is fixedly connected to the outer side wall of the lower cover part 21) that abuts against the touch part is arranged between the lower ear seats 2421. A contact groove 24211 is formed on the contact seat 2421, and the touch pressure rod part abuts in the contact groove 24211 (for maintaining the touch stability of the torsion spring 244).

[0061] During the working process, when unlocked, at this time, under the elastic force of the torsion spring 244, the lower cover part 21 receives the flipping elastic force of the torsion spring 244, and under the action of the flipping elastic force, the lower cover part 21 quickly flips and pops open to achieve quick opening in this way.

[0062] Embodiment 3

[0063] As Figure 1-8 shown, on the basis of the structure of Embodiment 2, the lower end of the protection tube 1 is threadedly connected with a bottom shell tube 3 (the data cable penetrates through the position of the bottom shell tube 3); the bottom shell tube 3 includes a detachable first shell tube part 32 and a second shell tube part 31 (a through hole is formed at the bottom after the first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31 are combined, which is convenient for the data cable to penetrate, and at the same time, the through hole is smaller than the size of the connector to prevent the connector from falling). Specifically, the lower end of the protection tube 1 is a threaded interface tube 11 with a threaded opening. Correspondingly, threaded connection parts are integrally formed at the tops of the first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31, and the threaded connection parts are threadedly connected to the pipe orifice of the protection tube 1.

[0064] When the first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31 are combined to form a complete bottom shell tube, in order to achieve the merging stability when the first shell tube part 32 or the second shell tube part 31 is flipped and merged, one end of the above-mentioned first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31 is clamped through a clamping structure; the other ends of the first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31 are hinged through a flexible connection method, such as a thin glue (the thin glue is a thin plastic part, and during the flipping process, the first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31 rotate through the thin glue part) connection. The clamping structure includes clamping seats 321 integrally formed on both sides of the edge of the first shell tube part 32 respectively. The clamping structure further includes a clamping groove 311 opened on the second shell tube part 31. When the first shell tube part 32 and the second shell tube part 31 are combined, the clamping seat 321 is clamped in the clamping groove 311.

[0065] Of course, the above description is not a limitation of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the essence of the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
