Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data cable technology, and in particular to a portable data cable. Background Technology
[0002] Data cables are essential peripherals for modern electronic systems such as mobile phones and tablets, used for data transfer, charging, and other operations. With the widespread use of portable electronic products, especially smartphones and tablets, people have become highly dependent on these devices, and data cables have gradually become a must-have item. People need to carry a data cable with them when they go out, in case their electronic devices need charging.
[0003] Data cables generally consist of a cable body and connector elements at both ends. For portability, data cables are short and folded in half, with hooks attached at the folds to resemble keychains, allowing them to be hung anywhere, such as on a phone case or backpack. However, when in use, both connector elements face the same side. To change the orientation, the cable must be bent in the opposite direction. Repeated bending can cause the connection between the cable and the hooks to crack or detach, and the bends are easily damaged, affecting the cable's lifespan. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this patent application is how to provide a portable data cable that is easy to store and unfold, convenient to use, and has a long lifespan.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A portable data cable includes a data cable body and a suspension assembly;
[0007] The data cable body includes a cable and interface elements disposed at both ends of the cable, and a reinforcing member is fixed at the connection between the cable and the interface element;
[0008] The suspension assembly includes a bracket, a sliding sleeve, a left support lug, and a right support lug. The wire is bent, and both sides of the bent portion of the wire are fixedly connected to the left and right support lugs, respectively. The ends of the left and right support lugs that are close to each other have through holes, and a pin is rotatably installed in the through holes. The bracket is U-shaped, and a hanging ring is fixed to the upper end of the bracket. Both ends of the pin are fixedly connected to the bracket. The sliding sleeve is slidably sleeved on the outside of the bracket, and guide structures are provided on both sides of the bracket and the sliding sleeve.
[0009] This cable bending design reduces the space occupied by the cable. The left and right tabs limit the bending position of the cable. Rotating the left and right tabs to a flush position moves them into the bracket, causing the cable to bend. Sliding the sleeve to the outside of the bracket prevents the left and right tabs from separating, thus limiting the current bending position of the cable. When the cable is bent, the connectors are in the same position, for example, connecting the connectors at both ends of the cable to a phone and a power bank respectively, which is convenient. When the connectors need to be in different positions, sliding the sleeve releases the restriction on the left and right tabs, allowing them to rotate and change the cable's position to meet different usage needs. The hanging loop allows for easy hanging in desired locations, such as phone cases or backpacks, and the data cable is designed like a keychain for easy carrying.
[0010] The guide structure includes fixed pins fixedly installed on both sides of the bracket, and the sliding sleeve has a sliding groove that slides in cooperation with the fixed pins.
[0011] The bracket has two fixing pins on both sides, and the sliding sleeve has two sliding grooves on both sides that slide in cooperation with the fixing pins.
[0012] The upper end of the bracket is embedded with an upper magnet, and the upper end of the sliding sleeve has a protruding edge. The sliding sleeve is made of ferromagnetic metal, and the upper magnet can be attracted to the protruding edge.
[0013] The left and right support ears are bonded to the wire.
[0014] The outer side of the wire is provided with a braided mesh.
[0015] In summary, this portable data cable has the advantages of being easy to store and unfold, convenient to use, and having a long lifespan. Attached Figure Description

These terms are used only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. The directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.
[0022] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a portable data cable includes a data cable body and a suspension assembly;
[0023] The data cable body includes a cable 1 and interface elements 2 disposed at both ends of the cable. A reinforcing member 3 is fixed at the connection between the cable and the interface elements.
[0024] The suspension assembly includes a bracket 4, a sliding sleeve 5, a left support lug 6, and a right support lug 7. The wire is bent, and the two sides of the bent part of the wire are fixedly connected to the left and right support lugs respectively. The ends of the left and right support lugs that are close to each other are provided with through holes. A pin 8 is rotatably installed in the through holes. The bracket is U-shaped, and a hanging ring 9 is fixed at the upper end of the bracket. The two ends of the pin are fixedly connected to the bracket. The sliding sleeve is slidably sleeved on the outside of the bracket. Guide structures are provided on both sides of the bracket and the sliding sleeve.
[0025] This cable bending design reduces the space occupied by the cable. The left and right tabs limit the bending position of the cable. Rotating the left and right tabs to a flush position moves them into the bracket, causing the cable to bend. Sliding the sleeve to the outside of the bracket prevents the left and right tabs from separating, thus limiting the current bending position of the cable. When the cable is bent, the connectors are in the same position, for example, connecting the connectors at both ends of the cable to a phone and a power bank respectively, which is convenient. When the connectors need to be in different positions, sliding the sleeve releases the restriction on the left and right tabs, allowing them to rotate and change the cable's position to meet different usage needs. The hanging loop allows for easy hanging in desired locations, such as phone cases or backpacks, and the data cable is designed like a keychain for easy carrying.
[0026] In implementation, the guide structure includes fixing pins 10 fixedly installed on both sides of the bracket, and the sliding sleeve has a sliding groove 11 that slides with the fixing pins. The fixing pins guide the movement of the sliding sleeve, while preventing the sliding sleeve from detaching from the bracket, thus improving the overall integrity.
[0027] In implementation, two fixing pins are fixed on each side of the bracket, and two sliding grooves are formed on each side of the sliding sleeve, which respectively slide in cooperation with the fixing pins. This improves stability.
[0028] In implementation, an upper magnet 12 is embedded in the upper end of the bracket, and a protruding edge 13 protrudes inward from the upper end of the sliding sleeve. The sliding sleeve is made of ferromagnetic metal, and the upper magnet can engage with the protruding edge. This makes the position of the sliding sleeve more stable when it is located outside the bracket, preventing the sliding sleeve from moving arbitrarily along the bracket.
[0029] During implementation, the left and right support ears are bonded to the wire. This facilitates installation.
[0030] In practice, a braided mesh is provided on the outer side of the wire. This improves the wire's abrasion resistance and extends its lifespan.
[0031] Specifically, the reinforcing member at the connection between the wire and the interface element is a rubber part. During molding, a magnet is embedded in it. The magnets embedded in the reinforcing members of the two interface elements have opposite polarities, which allows the two interface elements to attract each other and prevents the interface elements from swinging randomly.
[0032] The interface components are commonly used components and can be USB interface components, Type-C interface components, or Lightning interface components, etc.
[0033] Finally, it should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims and their equivalents, this utility model also intends to include these modifications and variations.
