Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of data connectors, in particular to a TYPE-C cable connector with good waterproof performance. Background Art

[0002] Type-C is a standard USB interface form factor that's smaller than both Type-A and Type-B. It can be used in both PCs (master devices) and external devices (slave devices, such as mobile phones). With the continued implementation of policies in various countries, the application of Type-C interfaces will become even more widespread. Existing technology lacks effective waterproofing due to the large gap between the Type-C interface and the device. This gap allows moisture and dust to enter, potentially damaging internal components.

[0003] In view of this, this technical solution proposes a TYPE-C cable connector with good waterproof performance. It adopts an external special-shaped plug shell structure. After docking with the equipment, it forms a flexible sealing structure with strong sealing and large friction. It can not only effectively prevent the entry of external water vapor and dust, but also enhance the connection strength and stability, and is not easy to loosen.

[0004] In view of this, Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model aims to solve, at least to a certain extent, one of the technical problems in the related art. To this end, the main purpose of this utility model is to provide a Type-C cable connector with excellent waterproof performance, aiming to solve the problem that the Type-C interface in the existing technology lacks an effective sealing structure, which easily allows external moisture and dust to enter, and the connection is easy to loosen.

[0006] To achieve the above object, the utility model provides a TYPE-C cable connector with good waterproof performance, including a connector shell consisting of a plug-in part and a tail shell.

[0007] A cavity for installing internal components is formed inside the plug-in part, and the tail shell is sleeved on the outside of the tail of the plug-in part. The tail shell is a flexible shell structure with rebound characteristics. A blocking part is provided at the junction of the tail shell and the plug-in part for sealing the gap after docking with the device interface. The blocking part is an oblique stepped structure that gradually becomes thinner in the insertion direction.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention, a fixed baffle for fixing and supporting the pins is provided between the pins on both sides of the tail of the inner component.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention, a pressure block for clamping and fixing the tail shell and the end of the plug-in portion is provided on the tail portion of the inner component.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention, a fixing groove is provided on the inner wall of the plug-in portion, one end of the tail shell is embedded in the fixing groove, and the pressure block clamps the one end of the tail shell in the fixing groove after installation.

[0011] As a further solution of the present invention, the tail shell is an integrally formed silicone shell structure.

[0012] As a further solution of the present invention, two ends of the fixed baffle are connected with two ends of the plug-in portion by snap-fitting.

[0013] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows:

[0014] This waterproof Type-C cable connector features a barrier located at the junction of the tail shell and the connector. Once the connector is inserted into a device, the barrier blocks the gap, preventing the ingress of moisture and dust. This simple protective structure eliminates the need for complex sealing mechanisms. Furthermore, the barrier is a soft, resilient rubber structure with a spring-back mechanism, providing a seal while also increasing friction with the device interface, making it less likely to fall off once connected.

[0021] Label name Label name 1 Connector housing 14 Fixed slot 10 Connector 2 Internal parts 11 Tail Shell 20 Briquetting 12 cavity 21 Pins 13 Barrier 22 Fixed baffle DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] as follows:

[0023] Please see the attached Figure 1-4 ,

[0024] The main structure includes a connector housing 1 consisting of a plug-in portion 10 and a tail shell 11. The plug-in portion 10 forms a cavity 12 for mounting the internal component 2. The tail shell 11 is sleeved onto the outside of the tail of the plug-in portion 10 and is a flexible shell structure with rebound properties. A barrier portion 13 is provided at the junction of the tail shell 11 and the plug-in portion 10 to seal the gap after docking with the device interface. The barrier portion 13 is an oblique stepped structure that gradually becomes thinner in the insertion direction. The tail shell 11 is an integrally molded silicone shell structure.

[0025] Here’s how it works:

[0026] When connecting a device interface, insert the connector housing 1 with the internal component 2 into the interface. Once the connector is fully seated, push it further inward, so that the front end (the thinner portion) of the barrier 13 "enters" the gap between the connector 10 and the interface. The rear end of the barrier 13 also seals the gap. This barrier 13 blocks the gap, preventing external moisture and dust from entering. Because the barrier 13 is made of soft rubber and partially enters the interface, it maintains strong friction after connection, making it less likely to fall off and enhancing the connection's strength and stability.

[0027] A preferred embodiment of the present invention is as follows: a fixing baffle 22 for fixing and supporting the pins 21 is provided between the pins 21 on both sides of the tail of the inner component 2 .

[0028] The fixed baffle 22 is primarily used to support the two rows of pins 21, preventing them from deforming. This serves as protection for the pins 21 during the production of the tail wires, particularly when welding the wires through the equipment. After forming, it also serves as a structural member to enhance structural strength.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a pressure block 20 is provided at the rear end of the inner member 2 for clamping and fixing the tail shell 11 to the end of the plug-in portion 10. A fixing groove 14 is provided on the inner wall of the plug-in portion 10, and one end of the tail shell 11 is embedded in the fixing groove 14. After installation, the pressure block 20 clamps the end of the tail shell 11 in the fixing groove 14.

[0030] The pressure block 20 is not only used to compress the entire inner part 2, but also used to clamp and fix the tail shell 11 to the end of the plug-in portion 10. One end of the tail shell 11 can also be clamped in the fixing groove 14 to achieve fastening.

[0031] A preferred embodiment of the present invention is that the two ends of the fixed baffle are connected by snapping with the two ends of the plug-in portion 10. The fixed baffle is installed by snapping, and since an external protective structure is provided, a fully enclosed housing is not required.

[0032] The above are only preferred embodiments of the technical solution of the present utility model, and do not limit the patent scope of the technical solution of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made by using the contents of the description and drawings of the technical solution of the present utility model under the conception of the technical solution of the present utility model, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the patent protection scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
