A cable management mechanism 17 is arranged inside the rectangular groove 15. A lead screw 18 is installed on the surface of the cable management mechanism 17. A nut sleeve is threadedly sleeved on the surface of the lead screw 18. The surface of the nut sleeve is in contact with the surface of the fixing frame 3. The surface of the lead screw 18 is in contact with the inner wall of the slot 16.
[0026] The lifting mechanism 6 includes a smooth rod 61, a lifting plate 62 and a first compression spring 63. The two ends of the smooth rod 61 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the first horizontal plate 4 and the top of the second horizontal plate 5. The lifting plate 62 is slidably sleeved on the surface of the smooth rod 61. The first compression spring 63 is sleeved on the surface of the smooth rod 61. The two ends of the first compression spring 63 are respectively fixedly connected to the bottom of the first horizontal plate 4 and the top of the lifting plate 62. The vertical plate 7 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting plate 62. A sliding rod 10 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first horizontal plate 4. The bottom of the sliding rod 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the second horizontal plate 5. The sliding rod 10 slidably penetrates through the lifting plate 62. When the staff adjusts the states of the adjusting mechanism 8 and the fixing plate 11, the adjusting mechanism 8 can be lifted upward first. At this time, the first compression spring 63 is stressed and shortened, and the positioning post 83 can be moved out of the positioning groove. During this process, the sliding rod 10 can guide and limit the movement of the lifting plate 62. Thereafter, under the action of the elastic force of the first compression spring 63, the cooperation between the first compression spring 63 and the positioning groove can fix the states of the adjusting mechanism 8 and the fixing plate 11.
[0027] The adjusting mechanism 8 includes a turntable 81, an L-shaped rod 82 and a positioning column 83. The surfaces on both sides of the turntable 81 are respectively in contact with the surfaces of the two vertical plates 7. The L-shaped rod 82 is fixedly penetrated through the turntable 81 and rotatably penetrates through the vertical plate 7. The fixing plate 11 is fixedly connected to the other end of the L-shaped rod 82. The number of the positioning columns 83 is two, and the positioning columns 83 are fixedly connected to the surface of the L-shaped rod 82. The surface of the positioning column 83 is in contact with the inner wall of the positioning groove. The staff rotates the L-shaped rod 82, and the fixing plate 11 and the positioning column 83 rotate accordingly. Thereafter, with the cooperation of the positioning column 83 and the positioning groove, the state of the L-shaped rod 82 can be fixed, thereby fixing the state of the fixing plate 11.
[0028] The limiting mechanism 13 includes a guide rod 131, a limiting plate 132 and a second compression spring 133. One end of the guide rod 131 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the storage groove. The limiting plate 132 is slidably sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 131. The surface of the limiting plate 132 is in contact with the inner wall of the storage groove. The second compression spring 133 is sleeved on the surface of the guide rod 131. The two ends of the second compression spring 133 are respectively fixedly connected to the surfaces of the storage groove and the limiting plate 132. A baffle 14 is fixedly connected to the lower part of one side surface of the limiting plate 132. The baffle 14 slidably penetrates through the fixing plate 11. After the staff moves the limiting plate 132, the data cable can be passed through the groove 12. Thereafter, under the action of the elastic force of the second compression spring 133, the limiting plate 132 can be in contact with the surface of the data cable, and thus the data cable can be clamped to facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the direction of the data cable. During this process, the baffle 14 can cover the storage groove to reduce the possibility that dust and other impurities affect the normal use of the second compression spring 133.
[0029] The cable management mechanism 17 includes a rectangular plate 171, a bent rod 172 and a cable management frame 173. The surface of the rectangular plate 171 is in contact with the inner wall of the rectangular groove 15. One end of the bent rod 172 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rectangular plate 171. The cable management frame 173 is fixedly connected to the other end of the bent rod 172. A lead screw 18 is fixedly connected to the surface of the rectangular plate 171. The staff can adjust the height of the rectangular plate 171 through the bent rod 172. Thereafter, the staff turns the nut sleeve, and the nut sleeve is used in cooperation with the lead screw 18, and the surface of the nut sleeve is in contact with the surface of the fixing frame 3. Accordingly, the position of the cable management frame 173 can be fixed. Thereafter, after the staff places the data cable inside the cable management frame 173, the cable management frame 173 can guide the running direction of the data cable, thereby improving the neatness of the data cable after being connected to the USB interface body 2.
[0030] Working principle: When the staff needs to connect the data cable to the USB interface body 2, the corresponding fixing plate 11 can be lifted upward first. When the fixing plate 11 is lifted to an appropriate height, the staff can rotate the L-shaped rod 82. The L-shaped rod 82 drives the positioning column 83 to rotate accordingly. When the L-shaped rod 82 rotates 180 degrees, under the action of the elastic force of the first compression spring 63, the positioning column 83 and the positioning groove cooperate to fix the states of the adjusting mechanism 8 and the fixing plate 11. After that, the staff can connect the end of the data cable to the USB interface body 2. And the staff can move the limiting plate 132 to pass the data cable through the groove 12. Then, under the action of the elastic force of the second compression spring 133, the limiting plate 132 can squeeze and limit the data cable. Subsequently, when the staff lifts the cable management frame 173 to an appropriate height, the screw sleeve can be screwed. At this time, with the cooperation of the screw sleeve, the lead screw 18 and the fixing frame 3, the height of the rectangular plate 171 can be fixed. Finally, when the staff passes the data cable through the cable management frame 173, the cable management frame 173 can be used to organize and guide the data cable.
