Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a Type-C interface structure, specifically a structure for increasing the connection strength of the Type-C interface, belonging to the technical field of Type-C interfaces. Background Technique

[0002] The Type-C interface is mostly used for charging, data transmission and other purposes. The biggest feature of the Type-C double-sided pluggable interface is that it supports double-sided insertion of the USB interface, which officially solves the worldwide problem of "the USB can never be inserted accurately", and can be inserted casually on both sides. At the same time, the USB data cable used in conjunction with it must also be thinner and lighter.

[0003] A TYPE-C interface structure disclosed in the Chinese Patent Application Publication Specification CN216958712U includes a male port and a female port; during the docking process of the male port and the female port of the utility model, the friction between the conductive terminals and the terminal holes during the insertion of the male port into the female port is avoided, resulting in mutual wear of the two, and the service life is longer.

[0004] Although the above solution can reduce the friction between the conductive terminals and the terminal holes, the fixing structure of the TYPE-C interface structure in the above patent is less stable during use. Often, after multiple shakes, the interface will fall off, bringing unnecessary trouble to the user; for this reason, we provide a structure for increasing the connection strength of the Type-C interface to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The utility model proposes a structure for increasing the connection strength of the Type-C interface to solve the problem of poor stability of the fixing structure of the TYPE-C interface structure in the prior art during use.

[0006] The utility model is realized through the following technical solutions: a structure for increasing the connection strength of the Type-C interface, including a fixed shell, an interface shell is fixedly sleeved inside the fixed shell, a data connection frame is fixed on the inner side wall of the interface shell, and a positioning mechanism for fixing the Type-C connector is arranged on the inner bottom wall of the interface shell.

[0007] Specifically, the positioning mechanism includes a connecting plate fixed on the inner bottom wall of the interface shell and a limiting rod fixed on the inner bottom wall of the interface shell. Two positioning shafts are fixed on the top surface of the connecting plate, and a positioning frame is rotatably connected to the periphery of each positioning shaft.

[0008] Specifically, the positioning mechanism further includes two connecting shafts respectively fixed on one side surface of the two positioning frames. A limiting collar is fixedly sleeved on the periphery of each connecting shaft, and a first spring is fixed between the two limiting collars.

[0009] A moving groove is formed at the bottom of the fixed shell, a transmission rod is slidably connected inside the moving groove, and a transmission mechanism for driving the positioning mechanism is arranged outside the fixed shell.

[0010] Specifically, the transmission mechanism includes a support block fixed to one side surface of the fixed shell. Both side surfaces of the support block are rotatably connected with transmission plates. A first sliding groove is formed above each transmission plate, and a second sliding groove is formed below each transmission plate.

[0011] Specifically, the transmission mechanism further includes a second moving shaft fixedly sleeved at one end of the transmission rod close to the transmission plate. Both ends of the second moving shaft are respectively slidably connected inside the two second sliding grooves.

[0012] Specifically, the transmission mechanism further includes a sliding rod slidably connected inside the fixed shell and a connecting block fixed to the inner bottom wall of the interface housing. The left end of the sliding rod penetrates through one side surface of the fixed shell and is fixedly sleeved with a first moving shaft. Both ends of the first moving shaft are respectively slidably connected inside the two first sliding grooves. A moving plate is fixed to the end of the sliding rod away from the first moving shaft. A second spring is fixed between the moving plate and the connecting block. The bottom surface of the moving plate is slidably connected to the outside of the limiting rod.

[0013] The utility model provides a structure for increasing the connection strength of a Type-C interface, and the beneficial effects thereof are as follows:

[0014] 1. For the structure for increasing the connection strength of the Type-C interface, insert the Type-C male head into the inside of the interface housing. By applying an external force to press the Type-C male head, one side of its top slides into the inside of the two positioning frames. The first spring provides elastic support for the two limiting collar rings. Through the cooperation between the limiting collar rings and the connecting shaft, the positioning frame rotates around the positioning shaft. The positioning frame positions the working position of the Type-C male head to prevent the Type-C male head from shaking during use.

[0015] 2. For the structure for increasing the connection strength of the Type-C interface, by applying an external force to press the transmission rod, through the cooperation between the transmission rod, the second moving shaft and the second sliding groove, the transmission plate is driven to rotate. Then, through the cooperation between the transmission plate, the first sliding groove and the first moving shaft, the sliding rod is driven to slide. The sliding rod drives the moving plate to trigger the rotation of the two positioning frames, so that the positioning frame releases the positioning of the Type-C male head and takes it out.

[0025] Please refer with emphasis to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a structure for increasing the connection strength of a Type-C interface, including a fixed shell 1, an interface shell 2 fixedly sleeved inside the fixed shell 1, a data connection frame 3 fixed on the inner side wall of the interface shell 2, and a positioning mechanism 4 for fixing a Type-C connector provided on the inner bottom wall of the interface shell 2.

[0026] Please refer with emphasis to Figure 3 , the positioning mechanism 4 includes a connection plate 41 fixed on the inner bottom wall of the interface shell 2 and a limiting rod 47 fixed on the inner bottom wall of the interface shell 2. Two positioning shafts 42 are fixed on the top surface of the connection plate 41. A positioning frame 43 is rotatably connected to the periphery of each positioning shaft 42, and the working position of the Type-C male head is positioned by the positioning frame 43.

[0027] The positioning mechanism 4 further includes two connection shafts 44 respectively fixed on one side surface of the two positioning frames 43. A limiting collar 45 is fixedly sleeved on the periphery of each connection shaft 44. A first spring 46 is fixed between the two limiting collars 45. Elastic support is provided for the two limiting collars 45 by the first spring 46, and the positioning frame 43 is driven to rotate around the positioning shaft 42 through the cooperation between the limiting collar 45 and the connection shaft 44.

[0028] In the above solution, the Type-C male connector is inserted into the interior of the interface housing 2. By applying an external force to press the Type-C male connector, the top end of the Type-C male connector slides into the interior of the two positioning brackets 43. The first spring 46 provides elastic support for the two limiting collar rings 45. The cooperation between the limiting collar rings 45 and the connecting shaft 44 drives the positioning bracket 43 to rotate around the positioning shaft 42, and the positioning bracket 43 positions the working position of the Type-C male connector to prevent the Type-C male connector from shaking during use.

[0029] Please refer specifically to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , a moving groove 5 is formed in the bottom of the fixed housing 1. A transmission rod 6 is slidably connected inside the moving groove 5, and a transmission mechanism 7 for driving the positioning mechanism 4 is arranged outside the fixed housing 1.

[0030] Please refer specifically to Figure 4 , the transmission mechanism 7 includes a support block 70 fixed to one side surface of the fixed housing 1. Transmission plates 71 are rotatably connected to both side surfaces of the support block 70. A first sliding groove 72 is formed above each transmission plate 71, and a second sliding groove 78 is formed below each transmission plate 71.

[0031] The transmission mechanism 7 further includes a second moving shaft 79 fixedly sleeved on the end of the transmission rod 6 close to the transmission plate 71. Both ends of the second moving shaft 79 are slidably connected inside the two second sliding grooves 78. The cooperation between the transmission rod 6, the second moving shaft 79 and the second sliding groove 78 drives the transmission plate 71 to rotate around the support block 70.

[0032] Please refer specifically to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the transmission mechanism 7 further includes a sliding rod 73 slidably connected inside the fixed housing 1 and a connecting block 77 fixed to the inner bottom wall of the interface housing 2. The left end of the sliding rod 73 penetrates through one side surface of the fixed housing 1 and is fixedly sleeved with a first moving shaft 74. The cooperation between the transmission plate 71, the first sliding groove 72 and the first moving shaft 74 drives the sliding rod 73 to horizontally slide inside the fixed housing 1. Both ends of the first moving shaft 74 are slidably connected inside the two first sliding grooves 72. A moving plate 75 is fixed to the end of the sliding rod 73 away from the first moving shaft 74. The sliding rod 73 drives the moving plate 75 to trigger the rotation of the two positioning brackets 43. A second spring 76 is fixed between the moving plate 75 and the connecting block 77. The bottom surface of the moving plate 75 is slidably connected to the outside of the limiting rod 47.

[0033] In the above solution, by externally pressing the transmission rod 6, the cooperation between the transmission rod 6, the second moving shaft 79 and the second sliding groove 78 drives the transmission plate 71 to rotate. Then, the cooperation between the transmission plate 71, the first sliding groove 72 and the first moving shaft 74 drives the sliding rod 73 to slide. The sliding rod 73 drives the moving plate 75 to trigger the rotation of the two positioning brackets 43, so that the positioning brackets 43 release the positioning of the Type-C male head and take it out.

[0034] Working principle: When using the Type-C interface, insert the Type-C male head into the inside of the interface housing 2. By externally pressing the Type-C male head, the top end of the Type-C male head slides into the inside of the two positioning brackets 43. The first spring 46 provides elastic support for the two limiting collar rings 45. The cooperation between the limiting collar ring 45 and the connecting shaft 44 drives the positioning bracket 43 to rotate around the positioning shaft 42. The positioning bracket 43 positions the working position of the Type-C male head to prevent the Type-C male head from shaking during use. When the Type-C male head needs to be pulled out after completing the operation, by externally pressing the transmission rod 6, the cooperation between the transmission rod 6, the second moving shaft 79 and the second sliding groove 78 drives the transmission plate 71 to rotate around the support block 70. Then, the cooperation between the transmission plate 71, the first sliding groove 72 and the first moving shaft 74 drives the sliding rod 73 to slide horizontally inside the fixed housing 1. The sliding rod 73 drives the moving plate 75 to trigger the rotation of the two positioning brackets 43, so that the positioning brackets 43 release the positioning of the Type-C male head and take it out. After the removal, the second spring 76 provides elastic support for the moving plate 75, driving the moving plate 75 to reset and prepare for the next positioning operation, improving the connection strength when using the Type-C interface.
