[0021] In order to make the purpose, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may be a centrally located component.

[0023] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0024] Example 1:

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application provides a waterproof communication interface, including a communication device body 1 and a waterproof component 2.

[0026] Among them, the outer side wall of the communication interface of the communication device body 1 is provided with an extension section 11, and the waterproof component 2 includes a connecting section 21 and a waterproof pad 22, and the connecting section 21 is detachably connected to the extension section 11; wherein, the waterproof pad 22 is made of any one of the following materials: rubber, plastic, and silicone.

[0027] By using a waterproof pad 22 made of rubber, plastic or silicone material and arranging it on the inner side of the connecting hole 111 of the extension section 11, effective waterproofing and sealing of the communication interface is achieved, thereby enhancing the waterproof performance of the interface and preventing moisture from protecting the internal circuit of the communication device body 1.

[0028] A communication hole 111 is defined in the extension section 11 . The communication hole 111 is aligned with and communicates with the communication interface of the communication device body 1 . The waterproof pad 22 is disposed on the inner wall of the communication hole 111 .

[0029] By setting up a connecting hole 111 in the extension section 11 and ensuring that it is aligned and connected with the communication interface of the communication device body 1, unimpeded access to the communication terminal and smooth transmission of signals are achieved. At the same time, the design of the waterproof pad 22 ensures that the waterproof performance is fully reflected at the interface.

[0030] Finally, an insertion hole 211 is provided in the connecting section 21 . The insertion hole 211 is aligned with and connected to the communication hole 111 . The insertion hole 211 is used to plug in a communication terminal of an external device.

[0031] By designing an insertion hole 211 in the connecting section 21 and ensuring its alignment and connection with the connecting hole 111, convenient access and tight fit of the communication terminal of the external device are achieved. This design not only facilitates the rapid connection and disconnection of the external device, but also ensures stable signal transmission and long-term durability of the interface through precise alignment.

[0032] In this embodiment, an extension section 11 is provided on the outer wall of the communication interface of the communication device body 1, and the waterproof assembly 2 includes a connecting section 21 and a waterproof pad 22. During use, the connecting section 21 is detachably connected to the extension section 11, ensuring a tight fit between the two. The connecting hole 111 on the extension section 11 is aligned with and connected to the communication interface of the communication device body 1. At the same time, the waterproof pad 22 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting hole 111 to provide additional sealing protection. The insertion hole 211 of the connecting section 21 is aligned with and connected to the connecting hole 111, allowing the communication terminal of the external device to be plugged in through the insertion hole 211 to complete the connection with the communication device body 1, thereby improving the waterproof performance and operational convenience of the communication interface. The provision of the waterproof pad 22 enhances the sealing effect at the interface, effectively preventing moisture and other impurities from entering the communication device body 1, and reducing the risk of equipment failure. The detachable design of the connecting section 21 not only facilitates the connection and removal of external devices, but also ensures that the sealing of the interface is not easily damaged during frequent use. Improve the problem that when the communication interface is connected to the communication terminal of the external device in a foreign-related environment, water is easily infiltrated into the communication interface, and the communication interface is easily loosened after too many plug-ins and unplugs between the communication interface and the communication terminal of the external device, which leads to communication abnormality or communication failure.

[0033] Example 2:

[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the detachable connection between the extension section 11 and the connecting section 21 is a threaded connection. The outer peripheral wall of the extension section 11 is provided with an external thread 112 , and the inner peripheral wall of the connecting section 21 is provided with an internal thread 212 threadedly connected to the external thread 112 .

[0035] The threaded connection achieves a tight and reliable fixation between the extension section 11 and the connecting section 21. This threaded connection not only enhances the structural stability of the entire waterproof communication interface, but also allows users to easily assemble and disassemble components as needed, improving the convenience of maintenance and replacement while maintaining the waterproof seal of the interface.

[0036] Among them, the connecting hole 111 is in a "conical" shape, and the aperture of the connecting hole 111 facing the communication interface of the communication device body 1 is equal to the aperture of the communication interface shell of the communication device body 1; the aperture of the connecting hole 111 away from the communication interface of the communication device body 1 is equal to the aperture of the communication terminal of the external device.

[0037] By designing the communication hole 111 as a cone, seamless connection is achieved between the communication interface of the communication device body 1 and the communication terminal of the external device. This design utilizes the self-centering function of the cone structure to improve the accuracy and sealing of the interface connection, ensure communication stability, and prevent the intrusion of moisture and dust.

[0038] The thickness of the end of the waterproof pad 22 away from the communication interface of the communication device body 1 is smaller than the thickness of the end of the waterproof pad 22 facing the communication interface of the communication device body 1 .

[0039] This gradual thickness design optimizes pressure distribution at different locations on the waterproof pad 22, enhancing the sealing and sealing of the interface. This structure not only improves waterproofing but also adapts to different insertion and removal forces through different compression ratios, thereby ensuring the durability and reliability of the interface.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a spacing groove 114 is opened on the extension section 11, and the spacing groove 114 divides the extension section 11 and the waterproof pad 22 into several parts. The spacing groove 114 is used to make the extension section 11 and the waterproof pad 22 ductile.

[0041] The design of spacing grooves 114 between extension section 11 and waterproof gasket 22 enhances the flexibility and adaptability of the entire structure. These spacing grooves allow the extension section 11 and waterproof gasket 22 to deform appropriately under external forces, thereby accommodating subtle differences in the size of different external communication terminals and maintaining a good seal and mechanical strength of the interface.

[0042] A limiting groove 221 is provided on the waterproof pad 22, and a limiting washer 222 is provided on the limiting groove 221. A threaded hole 115 is provided on the extension section 11 and passes through the outer wall to the waterproof pad 22. A bolt 113 is provided in the threaded hole 115. The bolt 113 passes through the threaded hole 115 and is threadedly connected to the waterproof pad 22 and the limiting washer 222.

[0043] By designing a retaining groove 221 on the waterproof gasket 22, matching the retaining washer 222, and bolt 113, the waterproof gasket 22 is stably installed and precisely positioned. This structural design not only ensures that the waterproof gasket 22 is fixed in place within the interface but also enhances the overall structure's resistance to external impact and pressure, ensuring a tight and waterproof seal during long-term use.

[0044] The limiting groove 221 is used to prevent the insertion of the communication terminal of the external device, and the limiting washer 222 is used to fix the waterproof pad 22 on the inner wall of the communicating hole 111 .

[0045] The design of the retaining groove 221 and retaining washer 222 effectively secures the waterproof gasket 22 and smoothly guides the insertion of the communication terminal. This ensures the correct position and stability of the waterproof gasket 22 in the interface, while preventing damage to the waterproof gasket 22 caused by insertion and removal, maintaining the interface's continued waterproof performance and clear signal transmission.

[0046] In this embodiment, the use of a threaded connection not only ensures the stability between the extension section 11 and the connection section 21, but also provides an interface that is easy to install and disassemble, making maintenance more convenient, while maintaining the tightness of the structure and effectively preventing the intrusion of water and dust. Next, the tapered design of the communication hole 111 allows the communication terminal to be inserted more smoothly. This design utilizes the self-centering property of the cone to increase the docking accuracy of the interface, thereby improving the stability of signal transmission and reducing the possibility of errors. Subsequently, the waterproof gasket 22 adopts a gradient thickness design, which not only optimizes the pressure distribution, so that the interface can maintain good sealing under different contact pressures, but also can adapt to different insertion and removal forces, thereby increasing the service life of the waterproof gasket 22 and the durability of the entire interface. The addition of the spacing groove 114 further enhances the flexibility of the extension section 11 and the waterproof gasket 22, allowing them to deform appropriately under the action of external forces. This design not only improves the adaptability of the interface. Finally, the design of the limiting groove 221 and the limiting washer 222 ensures the stability of the waterproof gasket 22 in the interface, preventing position displacement or damage caused by frequent insertion and removal. The presence of the limiting washer 222 enhances the fixation of the waterproof pad 22, so that it can maintain its position and function during long-term use, thereby ensuring the waterproofness of the communication interface and the reliability of communication.
