By arranging the protective plate 3 to be rotatably connected to the protective shell 2, the protective plate 3 can be easily rotated to open the protective shell 2. By arranging the slider 8 to be slidably connected to the sliding groove 18, the protective shell 2 can be easily slid into the sliding cavity 19, and the user can easily insert the USB socket 4 into the USB slot.
[0026] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the locking assembly includes a cavity 12, a spring 11 and a card ball 9. The slider 8 is provided with a cavity 12, and a spring 11 is installed inside the cavity 12. A card ball 9 is installed at one end of the spring 11. A card groove that cooperates with the card ball 9 is provided on the protective shell 2. By setting the card ball 9 to be engaged with the card groove, the sliding protective shell 2 and the slider 8 slide in the slide groove 18. The card ball 9 slides out of one of the card grooves and is inserted into another card groove to limit the sliding protective shell 2. A rotating block 6 is installed on the protective plate 3. A card groove that cooperates with the rotating block 6 is provided on the protective shell 2. The rotating grooves 20 cooperate with each other and are rotatably connected to the rotating grooves 20 by setting a rotating block 6. By rotating the protective plate 3, the protective shell 2 can be easily opened. A plurality of rotating cavities are provided on the rotating block 6. Balls 7 are installed for rotation inside the rotating cavity. By setting the ball 7, the friction force of the rotating block 6 can be reduced.
