[0002] With the rapid development of science and technology in the electronics industry, various electrical components are becoming increasingly standardized and regulated. USB Type-C is a new type of USB interface. It was born along with the latest USB3.1 standard. It is a new interface developed by the USB standardization organization to solve the long-standing shortcomings of USB interfaces, such as inconsistent physical interface specifications and one-way power transmission. It integrates charging, display, data transmission and other functions in one, with its fast transmission speed, small size, and reversible pluggable nature. Therefore, it has a trend of being widely used in electronic products.

[0003] The existing type-C structure has achieved significant performance improvements in many aspects such as stability and plug-in and plug-out times. However, there are still some problems that need to be solved, such as the complex internal structure, which is not conducive to assembly and subsequent maintenance, and the assembly is not simple enough, which increases the manufacturing cost.

[0004] For example, the utility model patent with application number 202122036447.2 and patent name "A type-c connector easy to fix" specifically discloses a type-c connector that is easy to fix, including a shell, a plug, a base and a fixing part. The plug is sleeved on one end of the base, the shell is sleeved on the outer end of the plug, and the fixing part is installed on the outer end of the shell. Support blocks are provided at both ends of the front of the plug, the plug is provided with a number of terminals, a card slot is provided at the front end of the plug, the support block is provided with a card block, the support block and the plug are detachably connected, the shell is provided with a buckle position, the base is provided with a fastener used in conjunction with the buckle position, and limiting slots are provided at both ends of the plug; the fixing part includes an upper cover and a bottom shell, the upper cover is installed on the upper end of the bottom shell, the shell is provided with a through slot, and the upper cover is provided with a protrusion.
