[0021] A USB connector, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes an external connector 1, a slot 2 is provided on one side of the external connector 1, and a slot is provided inside the slot 2. A connector 3 is inserted into one side of the external connector 1, and a housing 4 is fixedly connected to one side of the connector 3. A fixed housing 5 is fixedly connected to one side of the housing 4, and a limit mechanism 6 is movably connected inside the fixed housing 5. A rotating rod 7 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the fixed housing 5, and a wire 8 is fixedly connected inside the rotating rod 7. A plug rod 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the external connector 1.

[0022] In use, first insert the male connector and the limiting rod 608 into the outer connector 1 and the slot 2 respectively. Then, rotate the wheel 601. When the wheel 601 rotates, it will move left and right on the rotating rod 7. When the rotating wheel 601 moves to the right, it will drive the push block 602 and the transmission rod 604 to move synchronously. At this time, the folding rod 603 will be pulled closer to each other by the transmission rod 604, thereby driving the slider 605 and the limiting rod 608 to move closer to each other. At this time, the limiting rod 608 will move and lock into the slot, thereby achieving the limiting function. By limiting the connection of the male connector and the outer connector 1, the connection can be more stable, thus preventing the male connector from falling off due to the pulling of the wire 8, thereby improving the practicality of the equipment.

[0023] like Figure 2-4 As shown, the limiting mechanism 6 includes a rotating wheel 601, a push block 602, a folding rod 603, and a transmission rod 604. The two sides of the push block 602 are rotatably connected to the two sides of the rotating wheel 601, and the rotating wheel 601 is rotatably connected to the opposite side of the push block 602. One end of the transmission rod 604 is fixedly connected to one side of the push block 602, and the other end of the transmission rod 604 is hinged to the middle section of the folding rod 603. The other end of the transmission rod 604 extends into the interior of the fixed housing 5. The rotating wheel 601 is threaded to the outer wall of the rotating rod 7. Two transmission rods 604 are provided, symmetrically arranged vertically. The outer wall of the rotating wheel 601 is provided with anti-slip grooves. The limiting mechanism 6 also includes a slider 605 and a fixed... Positioning rod 606, spring 607, and limiting rod 608; slider 605 is provided with two symmetrical left and right sides, and slider 605 is slidably connected to the outside of positioning rod 606; spring 607 is fixedly connected to the opposite side of slider 605; one end of limiting rod 608 is fixedly connected to one side of slider 605; positioning rod 606 is fixedly connected to the inside of fixed shell 5; both ends of folding rod 603 are respectively hinged to the outer wall of slider 605; limiting rod 608 is provided with two symmetrical upper and lower sides, and limiting rod 608 is movably connected to the inside of slot 2; one end of limiting rod 608 is adapted to the slot; positioning rod 606 is fixedly connected to the inside of fixed shell 5.

[0024] After inserting the male connector and the limiting rod 608 into the outer connector 1 and the slot 2 respectively, the rotating wheel 601 can be rotated. When the rotating wheel 601 rotates, it will move left and right on the rotating rod 7. When the rotating wheel 601 moves to the right, it will drive the push block 602 and the transmission rod 604 to move synchronously. At this time, the folding rod 603 will be pulled by the transmission rod 604, causing its two ends to move closer to each other, thereby driving the slider 605 and the limiting rod 608 to move closer to each other. At this time, the limiting rod 608 will move and lock into the slot, thereby achieving the limiting function. By limiting the connection of the male connector and the outer connector 1 through the limiting rod 608, the connection can be made more stable, thereby preventing the male connector from falling off due to the pulling of the wire 8, thus improving the practicality of the equipment.

[0025] The working principle is as follows:

[0026] First, insert the male connector and the limiting rod 608 into the outer connector 1 and the slot 2 respectively. Then, rotate the wheel 601. When the wheel 601 rotates, it will move left and right on the rotating rod 7. When the rotating wheel 601 moves to the right, it will drive the push block 602 and the transmission rod 604 to move synchronously. At this time, the folding rod 603 will be pulled by the transmission rod 604, causing its two ends to move closer to each other, thereby driving the slider 605 and the limiting rod 608 to move closer to each other. At this time, the limiting rod 608 will move and lock into the slot.
