[0052] The following describes the embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The terms used in the implementation methods of the present application are only used to explain the specific embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0053] The embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, with the development of technology and the emergence of new scenarios, the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of the present application are also applicable to similar technical problems.

[0054] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequential order. It should be understood that the terms used in this way can be interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, and this is merely a way of distinguishing the objects of the same attributes when describing them in the embodiments of the present application. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, so that the process, method, system, product or equipment comprising a series of units need not be limited to those units, but may include other units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or equipment.

[0055] This application discloses a connection structure, the structural diagram of which is shown in FIG. Figure 1 Shown, including:

[0056] A first connector 11 , a second connector 12 and a target structure 13 .

[0057] The second connector 12 can be plugged into the first connector 11;

[0058] The target structure 13 is provided on the first connector 11 or the second connector 12 ( Figure 1 The target structure 13 shown in FIG is provided on the second connector 12), and the target structure includes at least a first state and a second state.

[0059] The first connector is plugged into the second connector. When the target structure is in the first state, power is transmitted through the power pin of the first connector and the power pin of the second connector. When the target structure is in the second state, data is transmitted through the data pin of the first connector and the data pin of the second connector.

[0060] For connectors, such as the Type C connector, it can not only realize power input, but also realize signal or data transmission. This means that when only power input is required, signal or data can also be transmitted, which reduces data security.

[0061] Based on this, in this solution, a target structure is set on the first connector or the second connector so that the first connector and the second connector can transmit power or data through different states of the target structure. When power is transmitted through the first connector and the second connector, no data will be transmitted, thereby ensuring data security.

[0062] The first connector and the second connector can be respectively set on different devices, such as: the first connector is the Type C interface on a mobile phone, and the second connector is the Type C plug on the charging cable; for example: the first connector is the USB interface on a laptop computer, and the second connector is the USB plug on the charging cable.

[0063] The first connector includes at least a power pin and a data pin, and the second connector includes at least a power pin and a data pin. When the first connector and the second connector are plugged in, the power pin of the first connector can be connected to the power pin of the second connector, and the data pin of the first connector can be connected to the data pin of the second connector. The connection between the data pin of the first connector and the data pin of the second connector can be achieved at the same time as the connection between the power pin of the first connector and the power pin of the second connector. However, even if the data pin of the first connector is connected to the data pin of the second connector, data may not be transmitted through the data pin of the first connector and the data pin of the second connector.

[0064] A target structure is set on the first connector or the second connector, and the target structure can be placed in a first state or a second state by adjusting the target structure.

[0065] If the first connector is plugged into the second connector, and the target structure is in the first state, then the first connector and the second connector can transmit power. At this time, the data pin of the first connector may be connected to the data pin of the second connector, or may not be connected. Regardless of whether the data pin of the first connector is connected to the data pin of the second connector, data cannot be transmitted through the first connector and the second connector, and only power can be transmitted, thereby ensuring data security when the target structure is in the first state.

[0066] If the first connector is plugged into the second connector, and this occurs simultaneously with the target structure being in the second state, then the first connector and the second connector can transmit data, that is, the data pin of the first connector and the data pin of the second connector are in a connected state, and the power pin of the first connector and the power pin of the second connector are in a connected state, and electric energy can be transmitted through the power pin of the first connector and the power pin of the second connector, that is, when the first connector and the second connector are plugged into, and the target structure is in the second state, both electric energy and data can be transmitted through the path between the first connector and the second connector.

[0067] The connection structure disclosed in this embodiment includes: a first connector, a second connector, and a target structure. The second connector can be plugged into the first connector. The target structure is set on the first connector or the second connector. The target structure includes at least a first state and a second state. The first connector is plugged into the second connector. When the target structure is in the first state, power is transmitted through the power pin of the first connector and the power pin of the second connector; when the target structure is in the second state, data is transmitted through the data pin of the first connector and the data pin of the second connector. This solution can realize the transmission of power by plugging the first connector and the second connector, or the transmission of data by plugging the first connector and the second connector, by virtue of the target structure being in different states. This achieves the purpose of transmitting power and data separately. When the first connector and the second connector are plugged into each other, if only power needs to be transmitted, data security is guaranteed and user experience is improved.

[0068] This embodiment discloses a connection structure, including:

[0069] A first connector, a second connector, and a target structure.

[0070] In addition to the same structure as the previous embodiment, the target structure in this embodiment is provided on the second connector, which includes a movable component having a first part and a second part, such as Figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of an active component in a target structure, including: a first part 21 and a second part 22 .

[0071] The first portion 21 is located on the surface of the second connector housing, and the second portion 22 is located inside the second connector housing.

[0072] The first portion located on the surface of the second connector housing is for facilitating operation of the movable component so that the second portion located inside the second connector housing can contact the first detection pin inside the first connector.

[0073] Specifically, a first detection pin is also provided inside the first connector, and the distance between the position of the first detection pin and the position of the opening of the first connector is greater than the distance between the power pin of the first connector and the position of the opening of the first connector. This can ensure that when the first connector and the second connector are plugged in, if the active component is in the first state, the active component is located in the first position, and the power pin of the first connector contacts the power pin of the second connector, but the second part of the active component cannot contact the first detection pin inside the first connector; only when the active component is pushed to move the second part of the active component toward the inside of the second connector and reaches the second state, the second part of the active component can contact the first detection pin inside the first connector, thereby realizing that the first connector and the second connector can transmit data through the data pin.

[0074] The first detection pin is a pin used to detect whether the second state has been reached and data transmission is possible. It is used to contact the second part of the active component. Once in contact, it can send connection status information to the processor in the device where the first connector is located, so that the processor can determine that it is currently in the second state and can transmit data, and control the device to transmit data through the first connector and the second connector.

[0075] like Figure 3 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the first connector and the second connector being plugged in when the movable component is in the first state, including: a first connector 31, a second connector 32, a movable component 33, a first detection pin 34, and a contact piece 331 on the movable component 33 for contacting the first detection pin 34.

[0076] In this embodiment, the power pin inside the first connector is the same length as its data pin, and the power pin inside the second connector is the same length as its data pin. When the first connector and the second connector are plugged in, as long as the power pin of the first connector is connected to the power pin of the second connector, the data pin of the first connector will be connected to the data pin of the second connector, but data can only be transmitted through the data pin when the active component is in the second state.

[0077] When the first connector and the second connector are plugged in, the power pin of the first connector is connected to the power pin of the second connector, and the data pin of the first connector is connected to the data pin of the second connector. At this time, whether power or data is transmitted through the first connector and the second connector depends on whether the active component is in the first state or the second state.

[0078] Figure 3 The figure shows that the first connector and the second connector are plugged in, and the movable component is in the first state. At this time, the communication between the power pin and the data pin inside the first connector and the second connector is not shown in the figure. Figure 3 The contact piece 331 on the active component 33 shown in the figure, which is used to contact the first detection pin 34, does not contact the first detection pin 34. At this time, the first detection pin cannot detect the status signal that the first connector and the second connector can transmit data, and will not send a signal to the processor in the device.

[0079] When the movable component is in the second state, the contact member on the movable component for contacting the first detection pin contacts the first detection pin, such as Figure 4As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the first connector and the second connector being plugged in when the movable component is in the second state, including: a first connector 31, a second connector 32, a movable component 33, a first detection pin 34, a contact piece 331 on the movable component 33 for contacting the first detection pin 34, and the movable component 33 also includes: a first part 332 and a second part 333, wherein the contact piece 331 is a part of the second part 333.

[0080] When the first connector and the second connector are plugged in and the active component is in the second state, the contact piece 331 on the active component 33 for contacting the first detection pin 34 contacts the first detection pin 34. At this time, the first detection pin 34 detects the signal currently in the second state and sends the signal to the processor in the device to enable the processor to determine that data can currently be transmitted through the first connector and the second connector.

[0081] The connection structure disclosed in this embodiment includes: a first connector, a second connector and a target structure arranged on the second connector, the target structure includes a movable component having a first part and a second part, the first part is located on the surface of the second connector shell, and the second part is located inside the second connector shell. In addition, a first detection pin is also provided inside the first connector, and the distance between the position of the first detection pin and the position of the opening of the first connector is greater than the distance between the power pin of the first connector and the position of the opening of the first connector; when the first connector and the second connector are plugged together, when the target structure is in a first state, the movable component is located in the first position, and the second part of the movable component has no contact with the first detection pin; when the target structure is in a second state, the movable component is located in the second position, and the second part of the movable component is connected to the first detection pin. This solution, by including a two-part movable component and a first detection pin inside the first connector, determines whether the movable component is in contact with the first detection pin through two different states, thereby adjusting whether data transmission is performed through the plugged first connector and the second connector, thereby ensuring data security.

[0082] Furthermore, in the connection structure disclosed in this embodiment, the target structure may further include:

[0083] The adjusting component is arranged on the first part of the movable component and is used for adjusting the position of the movable component.

[0084] like Figure 5 , which is a schematic diagram of the first part of the movable component on the surface of the second connector housing, includes: an adjusting component 51.

[0085] By toggling the adjusting component 51 to different positions, the contact piece on the second part of the movable assembly for contacting the first detection pin can be adjusted to be in contact with or not in contact with the first detection pin inside the first connector.

[0086] For example: According to Figure 5 The arrow pointing to the left in the middle moves the adjusting component 51 to the left position within its movable range. At this time, the contact piece of the second part of the movable assembly is not in contact with the first detection pin inside the first connector. Only power transmission, such as charging, can be achieved through the first connector and the second connector.

[0087] Another example: According to Figure 5 The arrow pointing to the right moves the adjusting component 51 so that the adjusting component 51 reaches the right position within its movable range. At this time, the contact piece of the second part of the movable component contacts the first detection pin inside the first connector, and not only the transmission of electric energy but also the transmission of data can be achieved through the first connector and the second connector.

[0088] Of course, according to Figure 5 The arrow pointing to the left in the middle of the adjustment component 51 can also be used to make the contact of the second part of the movable component contact the first detection pin inside the first connector. Figure 5 The arrow pointing to the right in the middle moves the adjusting component 51, which can also achieve that the contact piece of the second part of the movable component is not in contact with the first detection pin inside the first connector. This is only an exemplary description.

[0089] The adjustment component in the movable assembly can be a structure that can be toggled in different directions, or a push-button switch structure. In addition, when the adjustment component is a structure that can be toggled in different directions, it can be as follows: Figure 5 The circular structure shown may also be in other shapes, which are not specifically limited here.

[0090] In the connection structure disclosed in this embodiment, the target structure includes an adjustment component, which is used to manually adjust the target structure to be in the first state or the second state, thereby adjusting whether the first connector and the second connector can transmit data based on user needs, ensuring data security, and improving user experience.

[0091] Furthermore, the connection structure disclosed in this embodiment includes:

[0092] A first connector, a second connector and a target structure arranged on the second connector, the target structure includes a movable component having a first part and a second part, and a first detection pin is also arranged inside the first connector.

[0093] In addition to the same structure as the previous embodiment, the target structure in this embodiment may also include:

[0094] The stop component is provided on the housing and the movable assembly of the second connector, and is used to fix the movable assembly in the first position when the target structure is in the first state, and to fix the movable assembly in the second position when the target structure is in the second state.

[0095] The stop component includes different parts, which are respectively arranged on the shell of the second connector and the movable component. By fixing between the different parts of the shell of the second connector and the movable component, the movable component can be fixed in different positions. For example, when the movable component is fixed in the first position, the target structure is in the first state, and when the movable component is fixed in the second position, the target structure is in the second state.

[0096] Furthermore, the stopping component may include:

[0097] A first opening component and a second opening component are provided on the second connector housing;

[0098] a first protruding member disposed on the first portion of the movable assembly;

[0099] When the first protruding part is engaged with the first opening part, the movable assembly is located at the first position; when the first protruding part is engaged with the second opening part, the movable assembly is located at the second position.

[0100] like Figure 6 As shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of the stopping component, including: a second connector shell 61, a first opening component 611 and a second opening component 612 arranged on the second connector shell 61, a movable component 62, a first part 621 of the movable component 62, and a first protrusion component 622 arranged on the first part 621 of the movable component 62.

[0101] When the first protruding part 622 is engaged with the first opening part 611, the movable assembly 62 is fixed in the first position, and the movable assembly 62 no longer changes position relative to the second connector housing 61. At this time, the second portion of the movable assembly 62 is not in contact with the first detection pin. When the first protruding part 622 is engaged with the second opening part 612, the movable assembly 62 is fixed in the second position, and the movable assembly 62 no longer changes position relative to the second connector housing 61. At this time, the second portion of the movable assembly 62 is in contact with the first detection pin.

[0102] Alternatively, when the first protrusion part 622 is engaged with the first opening part 611, the movable component 62 is fixed in the first position, and the movable component 62 no longer changes position relative to the second connector shell 61. At this time, the second part of the movable component 62 contacts the first detection pin; when the first protrusion part 622 is engaged with the second opening part 612, the movable component 62 is fixed in the second position, and the movable component 62 no longer changes position relative to the second connector shell 61. At this time, the second part of the movable component 62 does not contact the first detection pin.

[0103] The target structure in the connection structure disclosed in this embodiment also includes a stop component, which is arranged on the shell and the movable component of the second connector, and is used to fix the movable component in the first position when the target structure is in the first state, and fix the movable component in the second position when the target structure is in the second state. The stop component is used to fix the movable component in different positions, ensuring that the state of whether the first connector and the second connector can transmit data does not change when the target structure is in the first state or the second state, thereby improving data security.

[0104] This embodiment discloses a connection structure, including:

[0105] A first connector, a second connector, and a target structure.

[0106] In addition to the same structure as the first embodiment, the target structure in this embodiment can be provided on the first connector.

[0107] Specifically, the target structure includes: a second protruding component and a third protruding component.

[0108] wherein the second protruding member is disposed at a third position inside the first connector housing, and when the second connector is plugged into the first connector at the third position, the power pin of the first connector and the power pin of the second connector can transmit power, and the second protruding member is in a target state that can be perceived by a user;

[0109] a third protruding member disposed at a fourth position inside the housing of the first connector, wherein when the second connector is plugged into the first connector at the fourth position, the data pin of the first connector and the data pin of the second connector are capable of transmitting data, and the third protruding member is in a target state that can be perceived by a user;

[0110] Among them, the third position is different from the fourth position.

[0111] In the connection structure disclosed in this embodiment, the target structure is provided on the first connector.

[0112] The target structure includes a second protruding component and a third protruding component. The second protruding component and the third protruding structure are used to allow the user to perceive that the first connector and the second connector are plugged into components in different positions. The first connector and the second connector are plugged into different positions to achieve different transmissions, that is, when plugged into the third position, electrical energy transmission can be achieved, and when plugged into the fourth position, data transmission can be achieved.

[0113] like Figure 7 , which is a schematic diagram of the first connector housing, includes: a second protruding component 71 and a third protruding component 72 .

[0114] The second protruding part 71 is provided at a third position inside the first connector housing, and the third protruding part 72 is provided at a fourth position inside the first connector housing. The third position is different from the fourth position. Figure 7 As shown in the figure, the third position is closer to the opening of the first connector housing than the fourth position, that is, when the second connector is plugged into the first connector, the second connector enters the interior of the first connector housing and first reaches the third position. When the plugging continues, it reaches the fourth position.

[0115] When the second connector is plugged into the third position of the first connector, the power pin of the second connector is connected to the power pin of the first connector. At this time, electric energy can be transmitted through the first connector and the second connector. Therefore, when plugged into the third position, the second protruding part will change its state so that it is in a target state that can be perceived by the user.

[0116] The second protruding component is in a target state, which can be: the second protruding component outputs a target audio so that the user can hear the target audio, and based on the heard target audio, it can be determined that it is currently plugged into the third position and the transmission of electrical energy can be achieved; or, it can be: the shape of the second protruding component changes, so that when the user touches the first connector shell, the user can perceive the change in the shape of the second protruding component, thereby determining that it is currently plugged into the third position and the transmission of electrical energy can be achieved.

[0117] On the basis of the second connector being plugged into the third position of the first connector, if the user wants to transmit data through the first connector and the second connector, the user continues to apply a plugging force to the second connector so that the second connector continues to be plugged into the first connector. When it is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector, the state of the third protruding part changes. At this time, the user can perceive the change in the state of the third protruding part, reaching the target state, and based on this, determine that it is currently plugged into the fourth position and can transmit data through the first connector and the second connector.

[0118] Accordingly, the third protrusion component is in a target state, which may be: the third protrusion component outputs a target audio so that the user can hear the target audio, and based on the heard target audio, it can be determined that it is currently plugged into the fourth position, and the transmission of electrical energy can be achieved. The audio output by the third protrusion component may be different from the audio output by the second protrusion component, so that the user can distinguish which position it is currently plugged into; or, it may be: the shape of the third protrusion component changes, so that the user can perceive the change in the shape of the third protrusion component when touching the first connector shell, thereby determining that it is currently plugged into the fourth position, and the transmission of electrical energy can be achieved.

[0119] Among them, in order to achieve the transmission of only power when the second connector is plugged into the third position of the first connector, and the transmission of only data when the second connector is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector, it can be: the power pin and the data pin inside the first connector are different in length, the power pin and the data pin inside the second connector are different in length, and whether inside the first connector or the second connector, the length of the power pin is greater than the length of the data pin.

[0120] Specifically, the power pin of the first connector is set at a third position inside the first connector, and the data pin of the first connector is set at a fourth position inside the first connector, wherein the distance between the third position and the position where the opening of the first connector is located is smaller than the distance between the fourth position and the position where the opening of the first connector is located.

[0121] That is, when the second connector is plugged into the third position of the first connector, only the power pin of the first connector is connected to the power pin of the second connector, while the data pin of the first connector is not connected to the data pin of the second connector. At this time, power can only be transmitted through the first connector and the second connector.

[0122] When the second connector is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector, the power pin of the first connector is connected to the power pin of the second connector, and at the same time, the data pin of the first connector is connected to the data pin of the second connector. At this time, not only the transmission of electric energy but also the transmission of data can be achieved through the path between the first connector and the second connector.

[0123] Furthermore, it can also be:

[0124] The target structure further includes: a second detection pin, which is arranged at a fifth position inside the first connector and is connected to the second detection pin when the second connector is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector.

[0125] A second detection pin is added to the target structure arranged inside the first connector, which is only used to detect whether the second connector is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector. When the second connector is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector, it can be connected to the second detection pin located at the fifth position inside the first connector, so that the detection pin detects that it has been connected to the second connector and can send a detection signal to the processor in the device corresponding to the first connector, so that the processor can determine that data can be transmitted at present.

[0126] On this basis, the power pin and data pin inside the first connector can be the same length, that is, when the second connector is plugged into the third position of the first connector, the power pin of the first connector is connected to the power pin of the second connector, and at the same time, the data pin of the first connector is connected to the data pin of the second connector. At this time, electrical energy can be transmitted, but data transmission can only be achieved when the second detection pin is connected to the second connector.

[0127] That is, when the second connector is plugged into the fourth position of the first connector, the second connector is connected to the second detection pin inside the first connector. At this time, the second detection pin can transmit a detection signal indicating that the connection has been established to the processor. The processor can obtain the detection signal and determine that data can be transmitted at present. That is, only when the second connector is plugged into the fourth position can the first connector and the second connector transmit data.

[0128] Among them, the distance between the fifth position and the first connector opening can be the same as the distance between the fourth position and the first connector opening, or it can be: the distance between the fifth position and the first connector opening is smaller than the distance between the fourth position and the first connector opening, but the distance between the fifth position and the first connector opening is greater than the distance between the third position and the first connector opening.

[0129] In addition, the target structure may also include:

[0130] The third detection pin is arranged at a third position inside the first connector, connected to the second protruding part, and capable of detecting the state of the second protruding part; the fourth detection pin is arranged at a fourth position inside the first connector, connected to the third protruding part, and capable of detecting the state of the third protruding part.

[0131] like Figure 8 As shown, this is a schematic diagram of the second connector being plugged into the first connector, including: a first connector 81 and a second connector 82, wherein the first connector 81 includes: a first connector shell 811, a pin combination 812 inside the first connector, a second protrusion structure 813, a third protrusion structure 814, a third detection pin 815 and a fourth detection pin 816.

[0132] in, Figure 8 The power pins and data pins in the pin assembly 812 inside the first connector are shown to have different lengths;

[0133] like Figure 8 As shown, two detection pins can be used to detect the current state and send it to the processor in the device corresponding to the first connector, so that it can determine whether it is currently in a state where data can be transmitted, namely the third detection pin and the fourth detection pin. Among them, the third detection pin is in contact with the second protruding structure 813. When the state of the second protruding structure 813 changes, the third detection pin can detect the change in the state of the second protruding structure and generate a first state change signal, which is sent to the processor in the device corresponding to the first connector, so that the processor can determine, based on the first state change signal, that the second connector has been plugged into the third position of the first connector and can achieve power transmission;

[0134] When the state of the third protrusion structure 814 changes, the fourth detection pin can detect the change in the state of the third protrusion structure, generate a second state change signal, and send it to the processor in the device corresponding to the first connector, so that the processor can determine, based on the second state change signal, that the current second connector has been plugged into the fourth position of the first connector, and can realize data transmission.

[0135] The connection structure disclosed in this embodiment includes: a first connector, a second connector, and a target structure provided on the first connector. The target structure includes: a second protrusion and a third protrusion. The second protrusion is provided at a third position within the housing of the first connector. When the second connector is plugged into the first connector in the third position, the power pins of the first connector and the power pins of the second connector can transmit power, and the second protrusion is in a target state that can be perceived by the user. The third protrusion is provided at a fourth position within the housing of the first connector. When the second connector is plugged into the first connector in the fourth position, the data pins of the first connector and the data pins of the second connector can transmit data, and the third protrusion is in a target state that can be perceived by the user. The third position is different from the fourth position. In this embodiment, by providing the second protrusion and the third protrusion at different positions within the housing of the first connector, different positions of the second connector can be detected when the second connector is plugged into the first connector. This allows the user to sense the position of the second connector plugged into the first connector and enables power or data transmission when plugged into different positions, thereby ensuring data security and improving user experience.
