[0020] The following description is intended only to disclose the present invention and to enable those skilled in the art to implement the present invention. The embodiments described below are provided for illustrative purposes only, and those skilled in the art will readily appreciate other obvious variations. The basic principles of the present invention as defined in the following description may be applied to other embodiments, variations, improvements, equivalents, and other solutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.

[0021] A USB connector installation structure, such as Figure 1-Figure 4 , including a connector assembly 2, the connector assembly 2 includes a USB connector body 21, a snap structure 22 and a gasket assembly 24.

[0022] The two ends of the USB connector body 21 are respectively an external USB connector and an internal connector. A cover 23 is installed at the external USB connector to play a role in waterproofing and dustproofing. The cross section of the USB connector body 21 is square to achieve the effect of anti-rotation. Figure 3 、 Figure 4 A step portion 25 is provided on the USB connector body 21. The diameter of the step portion 25 is larger than the diameter of the USB connector body 21 and is used to locate the insertion depth of the USB connector body 21 during installation. The gasket assembly 24 can produce elastic deformation. In this embodiment, the gasket assembly 24 is a rubber gasket. The gasket assembly 24 is arranged in the step portion 25 area. The gasket assembly 24 includes an outer pad 242 and an inner embedded portion 241. The shape of the outer pad 242 is the same as the end face shape of the step portion 25. The inner embedded portion 241 is used to be embedded in the mounting hole of the USB connector mounting structure. The two cooperate to achieve a better shock-absorbing and sealing effect.

[0023] The USB connector body 21 and the buckle structure 22 are preferably made of plastic.

[0024] like Figure 4 Two groups of snap structures 22 are provided, and are symmetrically arranged on the end faces of both sides of the USB connector body 21. The snap structure 22 is an elastic inverted buckle, one end of which is connected to the USB connector body 21, and the other end is an open end, which is arranged in an inclined shape. The open end of the inverted buckle is provided with a contact plane 221, that is, a flat plane is maintained when the inverted buckle is in an inclined state, ensuring surface contact with the inner surface of the vehicle shell 1 in the inclined state of the inverted buckle, rather than line contact, to ensure smooth and reliable contact.

[0025] A vehicle includes the above-mentioned USB connector mounting structure and a vehicle shell 1. Taking a motorcycle as an example, the vehicle shell 1 is a plastic part of the front of the vehicle, and a mounting hole 11 is provided on the vehicle shell 1.

[0026] like Figure 4 The distance between the end of the buckle structure 22 and the gasket assembly 24 is smaller than the thickness of the vehicle shell 1, achieving a tight fit effect.

[0027] The width of the mounting hole 11 is greater than the width of the connection between the buckle structure 22 and the USB connector body 21 , which facilitates the smooth entry of the initial section of the buckle structure 22 during installation, making installation more convenient.

[0028] Optionally, an anti-slip structure such as a groove or anti-slip pattern may be provided at the contact position of the vehicle shell 1 with the contact plane 221 .

[0029] When installing, the joint assembly 2 is directly inserted into the mounting hole 11 of the head plastic part, since the joint body is plastic material, the buckle structure 22 on both sides of the body is elastic, so pressing can directly pass through the mounting hole 11, and after passing, it automatically rebounds, that is, it is locked, and this reverse buckle structure cannot be pulled out without actively pressing the buckle structure 22.

[0030] At the same time, the stepped portion, the gasket assembly 24 and the buckle form a soft and hard structure on both sides of the head plastic part, which can remain stable under strong vibration and is not easy to loosen, and has strong vibration resistance.

[0031] Those skilled in the art should understand that the above description and the embodiments of the utility model shown in the drawings are only as examples and do not limit the utility model. The purpose of the utility model has been completely and effectively achieved. The function and structural principle of the utility model have been demonstrated and explained in the embodiments, and the implementation of the utility model can have any deformation and modification without departing from the principle.
