[0034] Embodiment:

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , a new type of connector adapter 100 of the present application, which includes an adapter body 100. A PCB board (not shown in the figure) is arranged in the adapter body 100. The adapter body 100 is in a T shape. A TYPE-C interface 200 connected to the PCB board is arranged at the first end of the adapter body 100, that is, the left end of the upper part of the T-shaped adapter body. An HDMI female socket 300 connected to the PCB board is arranged at the second end of the adapter body 100, that is, the bottom end of the lower part of the T-shaped adapter body. An HDMI male plug assembly 400 functionally connected to the PCB board is arranged at the third end of the adapter body, that is, the right end of the upper part of the T-shaped adapter body. The HDMI male plug assembly 400 is telescopic. Through the above structural design, on the basis of realizing the single signal conversion function between the HDMI male plug and the HDMI female socket, a more widely used TYPE-C interface is added at present, so as to achieve the purpose of converting TYPE-C signal to HDMI signal, bringing more convenience to user applications; and the HDMI male plug assembly is set to be telescopic, so as to adjust the length of the HDMI male plug, achieve the purpose of telescoping the HDMI male plug, and meet the requirement of maintaining an appropriate length of the adapter for different use needs.

[0036] Specifically, the HDMI male plug assembly 400 includes a telescopic member 401 and an HDMI male plug 402 mounted at one end of the telescopic member 401 away from the adapter body 100. The HDMI male plug 402 is connected to the PCB board. Wherein, a slide rail 4011 is provided on each side of the telescopic member 401, and the two slide rails 4011 slide in corresponding chutes 101 on the inner wall surface of the adapter body 100 respectively. Through the cooperation and guidance of the slide rail 4011 and the chute 101, the telescopic member 401 can make a smooth reciprocating motion.

[0037] Specifically, two notch grooves (not shown in the figure) are oppositely arranged at the position of the adapter body 100 close to the HDMI male plug assembly 400. An adjusting mechanism 500 is provided in each notch groove. The adjusting mechanism 500 includes a rotating shaft 501 rotatably mounted on the two side walls of the notch groove, a torsion spring 502 sleeved on the rotating shaft 501, and an adjusting rod 503 provided on the rotating shaft 501. One end of the adjusting rod 503 close to the telescopic member 401 abuts against the telescopic member 401. One end of the torsion spring 502 is pressed against the bottom of the notch groove, or can also abut against the bottom of the notch groove. The other end of the torsion spring 502 is fixedly connected to the adjusting rod 503. In the initial state, one end of the adjusting rod 503 close to the telescopic member 401 abuts against the telescopic member 401, restricting the free movement of the telescopic member 400. When the HDMI male plug 402 needs to be extended, the user applies an external force to the end of the adjusting rod 503 away from the telescopic member 401. Under the action of the torsion spring 502, one end of the adjusting rod 503 close to the telescopic member 401 moves away from the telescopic member 401. The user then applies an external force to the telescopic member 401 and pulls the telescopic member 401 out of the adapter body 100. After pulling out a certain distance, the external force applied to the end of the adjusting rod 503 away from the telescopic member 401 disappears, and one end of the adjusting rod 503 close to the telescopic member 401 abuts against the telescopic member 401 again, thereby restricting the telescopic member 401 to a certain extent and also achieving the purpose of telescoping and extending the HDMI male plug assembly 400.

[0038] As a preferred mode of this embodiment, a hook 5031 is provided at one end of the adjusting rod 503 close to the HDMI male plug 402. The hook 5031 cooperates with a plurality of card slots 4012 evenly distributed on the telescopic member 401. Through the cooperation of the hook 5031 and different card slots 4012, the adjusting rod 503 can better adjust the telescopic length of the HDMI male plug assembly 400, so as to achieve different telescopic lengths, and at the same time, it can also prevent the telescopic member 401 from freely moving after telescoping. Specifically, the card slots 4012 are provided on the slide rail 4011.

[0039] As a preferred mode of this embodiment, a waterproof ring 201 is provided at the connection between the TYPE-C interface 200 and the adapter body 100, so that the present application has a certain waterproof function. Specifically, the waterproof ring 201 is one of a polyurethane rubber waterproof ring, a nitrile rubber waterproof ring, a chloroprene rubber waterproof ring, an EPDM rubber waterproof ring, and a hydrogenated nitrile rubber waterproof ring.

[0040] In summary, the present invention solves the deficiencies in the prior art through the above-mentioned structural design, and has the characteristics of reasonable design, flexible and convenient use, and multifunctional use.

[0041] The above is only a specific implementation of the utility model, but the protection scope of the utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that are not conceived through creative work should be included in the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model should be based on the protection scope defined in the claims.
