Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of USB cables, and in particular to a USB cable with a snap hook. Background Technology

[0002] USB cables are used for connecting and communicating between computers and external devices. Simply put, they are used for data transfer and charging. USB is the most widely used external bus standard in the PC field, used to standardize the connection and communication between computers and external devices. USB interfaces support plug-and-play and hot-swapping capabilities.

[0003] Existing USB cables only maintain the connection between the USB cable and the device through a tight fit. If the user accidentally unplugs the cable or if it is accidentally touched by external force while connected, the USB cable may easily become disconnected from the USB port of the device, resulting in communication interruption or data transmission interruption between devices.

[0004] Therefore, this utility model proposes a USB cable with a hook. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model of this invention provides a USB cable with a latch, which mainly solves the problem that existing USB data cables only maintain the connection between the USB data cable and the device through a tight fit. If the user accidentally unplugs the cable or if there is an external force, the USB cable can easily become disconnected from the USB port of the device, resulting in communication interruption or data transmission interruption between devices.

[0006] This utility model proposes a USB cable with a snap hook, comprising:

[0007] case;

[0008] The main body is partially built into the housing;

[0009] A connecting line is fixedly connected to the main body and extends outward from the end face of the housing away from the main body;

[0010] A positioning element is formed on the side of the end of the main body that is external to the housing; the positioning element extends or retracts into or protrudes from the main body along its own height direction.

[0011] Preferably, it further includes:

[0012] The hook is a strip-shaped structure; one end is built into the housing, and the other end is located inside the main body; the positioning element is disposed on the outer side of the end of the hook built into the main body;

[0013] The button is abutted against the outer end of the housing and the hook is built into it; the button protrudes from the side wall of the housing and can extend and retract in its own height direction; the extension and retraction of the button drives the extension and retraction of the positioning member.

[0014] Preferably, the free end of the positioning member is provided with an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is inclined downward toward the free end of the main body.

[0015] Preferably, the main body comprises:

[0016] The sheath has a strip-shaped hole for the positioning element to pass through;

[0017] A connector is built into the sheath and electrically connected to the connecting wire; a limiting groove is formed on the side of the connector, and the hook is disposed in the limiting groove.

[0018] Preferably, the housing comprises:

[0019] A folded edge is provided on the end edge of the housing away from the connecting line; the folded edge abuts against the sheath of the main body.

[0020] Preferably, the housing further includes:

[0021] A through hole is provided on the side of the housing, and is configured to avoid obstruction from the button.

[0022] Preferably, the housing further includes:

[0023] The limiting member is set close to the edge of the housing and is a hollow structure; the end of the hook built into the housing is wrapped in the limiting member, and the end of the hook abuts against the side wall of the limiting member.

[0024] As can be seen from the above, the following beneficial effects can be obtained by applying the technical solution provided by this utility model:

[0025] First, the USB cable proposed in this utility model has a retractable positioning component, which keeps the USB cable and the device firmly connected when it is protruding, thereby improving the tightness and stability of the connection between the USB cable and the device.

[0026] Secondly, the USB cable proposed in this utility model has a built-in hook, and the hook is equipped with a button and a positioning component. The extension and retraction of the positioning component can be controlled by the button. Since the button is located on the housing, that is, when the USB cable is connected to the device, the button is located outside the device, which is convenient for the user to operate and realize the normal extension and retraction control of the positioning component.

[0027] Third, the free end of the positioning component on the USB cable proposed in this utility model is provided with an inclined surface. During the process of connecting the USB cable to the device, the user gradually presses down the positioning component and successfully completes the connection between the USB cable and the device, thus reducing the difficulty of removing the USB cable while maintaining the original function of the USB cable.

[0028] Fourth, the USB cable proposed in this utility model has a limiting groove inside, which facilitates the placement and movement path of the hook when the positioning component retracts, thereby making the extension and retraction of the positioning component and the pressing down of the hook a repeatable process, thus maintaining the service life of the USB cable.

[0029] Fifth, the housing of the USB cable proposed in this utility model is provided with a limiting component, and the limiting component is used to fix the end position of the hook. Since the button and the positioning component are located on the same side of the current end, the same direction transmission effect of the button and the positioning component can be effectively guaranteed.

[0036] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0037] This solves the problem that existing USB data cables only maintain the connection between the USB data cable and the device through a tight fit. If the user accidentally unplugs the cable or if there is external force, the USB cable may easily become disconnected from the USB port of the device, resulting in communication interruption or data transmission interruption between devices.

[0038] like Figures 1-5 As shown, in order to solve the above problems, this embodiment proposes a USB cable with a hook, which includes a housing 10, a main body 20, a connecting wire 30 and a positioning member 41; the main body 20 is partially built into the housing 10; the connecting wire 30 is fixedly connected to one end of the main body 20 and extends outward from the end of the housing 10 away from the main body 20; the positioning member 41 protrudes from the end side of the main body 20 outside the housing 10; the positioning member 41 extends and retracts into or protrudes from the main body 20 along its own height direction.

[0039] Preferably, in this embodiment, the main body 20 includes an MD structure, which is fixedly connected to the connecting line 30 and is completely built into the housing 10; the portion of the main body 20 protruding from the housing 10 is a metal structure, used to cooperate with the USB interface of the device. Preferably, but not limited to, in this embodiment, the thickness of the main body 20 is equal to the clamping thickness of the housing 10.

[0040] Preferably, in this embodiment, the positioning member 41 is disposed near the free end of the main body 20.

[0041] Preferably, in this embodiment, the free end face of the positioning member 41 is an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is inclined downward in the direction of the connecting line 30 toward the main body 20, and the highest point of the inclined surface is perpendicularly connected to the adjacent side. Preferably, but not limited to, in this embodiment, the inclined surface of the positioning member 41 can press down on the positioning member 41 during the connection between the USB cable and the device, and when the USB cable is positioned and connected to the device, the positioning member 41 springs back, at which time the vertical surface on the positioning member 41 prevents the USB cable from detaching from the device on its own.

[0042] Preferably, in this embodiment, the main body 20 is made of conductive material, and the shell 10 and the positioning member 41 are made of insulating material.

[0043] In this embodiment, the positioning member 41 protrudes from the main body 20 to keep the USB cable and the device firmly connected, preventing the USB cable from falling off the device in case of accidental contact with external force. Since the positioning member 41 can be telescopically moved, when the positioning member 41 is retracted and built into the main body 20, the USB cable can be smoothly detached from the device, preventing the user from pulling the USB cable excessively.

[0044] More specifically, it also includes a hook 40 and a button 42; the hook 40 is a strip-shaped structure, with one end built into the housing 10 and the other end located inside the main body 20; the positioning member 41 is disposed on the outer side of the end of the hook 40 built into the main body 20; the button 42 is abutted against the outer side of the end of the hook 40 built into the housing 10; the button 42 is disposed protruding from the side wall of the housing 10 and can extend and retract in its own height direction; the extension and retraction of the button 42 drives the extension and retraction of the positioning member 41.

[0045] Preferably, in this embodiment, a limiting member 11 is provided on the housing 10, and the limiting member 11 is provided close to the edge of the housing 10 and is a hollow structure; the end of the hook 40, which is built into the housing 10, is wrapped inside the limiting member 11, and the end of the hook 40 abuts against the side wall of the limiting member 11. Preferably, but not limited to, in this embodiment, the abutting direction of the end of the hook 40 is the same as the retraction direction of the button 42 and the positioning member 41. In this embodiment, the end of the hook 40 inside the limiting member 11 is fixed in place, and since the button 42 and the positioning member 41 are both located on the same side of the current end, the downward retraction process of the button 42 drives the downward retraction process of the positioning member 41.

[0046] Preferably, in this embodiment, the hook 40 is made of a micro-elastic material, that is, when the button 42 is pressed down, the hook 40 can achieve micro-deformation, thereby transmitting the control of the shrinkage of the positioning member 41.

[0047] Preferably, in this embodiment, the button 42 adopts a quadrangular prism structure, and its protruding contact surface from the shell 10 is large, which makes it easier for the user to position and press down the button 42.

[0048] Preferably, in this embodiment, the extension and retraction of the button 42 and the positioning member 41 is actually a fan-shaped movement path around the positioning end of the hook 40.

[0049] In this embodiment, the hook 40 is a strip structure and one end is fixed. Therefore, pressing down the button 42 can effectively control the retraction of the positioning member 41. In other words, the user can control the retraction of the positioning member 41 by pressing down the button 42. While ensuring the tightness of the connection between the USB cable and the device, it can also reduce the bonding force when disconnecting the USB cable from the device.

[0050] More specifically, the main body 20 includes a sheath 21 and a connector 22; the sheath 21 has a strip hole for the positioning member 41 to pass through; the connector 22 is built into the sheath 21 and is electrically connected to the connecting line 30; a limiting groove 221 is provided on the side of the connector 22, and the hook 40 is disposed in the limiting groove 221.

[0051] Preferably, in this embodiment, the height of the strip hole is centered at the height of the connector 22. Preferably, but not limited to, in this embodiment, the thickness of the strip hole is equal to the thickness of the positioning member 41.

[0052] Preferably, in this embodiment, the connector 22 is disposed close to the bottom end of the sheath 21, and an accommodating space with an external structure is formed between the top end of the connector 22 and the sheath 21. Preferably, but not limited to, the thickness of the connector 22 is equal to 1 / 2 the thickness of the sheath 21.

[0053] Preferably, in this embodiment, the width of the limiting groove 221 is equal to the width of the hook 40, and the depth of the limiting groove 221 is equal to the height of the positioning member 41.

[0054] Preferably, in this embodiment, the hook 40 is usually set close to the inner side of the sheath 21, at which time the positioning member 41 protrudes completely from the main body 20; when the positioning member 41 is pressed down by force or the end of the hook 40 is pressed down with the button 42, the hook 40 and the positioning member 41 move down until they are completely retracted into the main body 20, and the hook 40 is built into the limiting groove 221.

[0055] In this embodiment, the setting of the limiting groove 221 in the main body 20 provides a corresponding storage space when the positioning member 41 is pressed down, which helps the position of the hook 40 and the positioning member 41 to be restored, as well as the hook 40 and the positioning member 41 to be temporarily stored, thereby realizing the repeated plugging and unplugging process of the USB cable.

[0056] More specifically, the end edge of the housing 10 away from the connecting line 30 is provided with a folded edge, and the folded edge is provided to abut against the sheath 21 of the main body 20.

[0057] Preferably, in this embodiment, the folded edge is set as the inner ring of the current end edge of the housing 10.

[0058] Preferably, in this embodiment, the folded edge is used to maintain the fitting relationship between the main body 20 and the shell 10, while preventing external moisture or dust from entering and contaminating the interior of the shell 10.

[0059] More specifically, the side of the housing 10 is also provided with a through hole, and the through hole and the button 42 are mutually prevented from passing each other.

[0060] Preferably, in this embodiment, the bottom of the button 42 extends outward to form a stop, so that the button 42 is movably disposed in the through hole and can move up and down, while maintaining the abutting setting between the button 42 and the hook 40.

[0061] Preferably, in this embodiment, the contact between the button 42 and the hook 40 can be further provided with a corresponding fixing structure, so that the button 42 and the hook 40 remain fixedly connected.

[0062] Preferably, in this embodiment, the through hole on the housing 10 is arranged adjacent to the limiting member 11, which can reduce the length of the hook 40 and at the same time make the button 42 set close to the fixed end of the hook 40. Meanwhile, the pressing degree of the button 42 can be multiplied by the pressing degree of the positioning member 41, reducing the difficulty for the user to control the positioning member 41.

[0063] In summary, this embodiment proposes a USB cable with a latch. By adding a positioning component, the USB cable maintains a secure connection with the device. In the event of accidental contact by external force or user, the connection between the USB cable and the device is kept firmly, ensuring stable data transmission over the USB cable. It also facilitates disconnection of the USB cable from the device. Furthermore, the latch and button design allow the user to retract the positioning component by pressing the button while holding the USB cable, thus detaching the USB cable from the device and avoiding excessive pulling force on the USB cable.

[0064] The embodiments described above do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this technical solution. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the above embodiments should be included within the scope of protection of this technical solution.
