[0054] Please also refer to Figures 1 to 11 This utility model provides a preferred embodiment of a data cable storage device that is easy to install.

[0055] In some embodiments, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this utility model provides a data cable storage device that is easy to install, comprising: an upper cover 1, a lower terminal block assembly 2, an upper terminal block assembly 3, a turntable 4, a rotating shaft 5, a spring 6, a swing arm assembly 8, and a data cable 7; the data cable 7 is disposed on the turntable 4 and electrically connected to the upper terminal block assembly 3; the upper terminal block assembly 3 is disposed on the turntable 4 and connected to the lower terminal block assembly 2; the rotating shaft 5 is disposed on the upper cover 1, and the turntable 4 is disposed between the upper cover 1 and the lower terminal block assembly 2; one end of the spring 6 is disposed on the turntable 4, and the other end of the spring 6 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 5; the swing arm assembly 8 is disposed on the lower terminal block assembly 2 and is used to cooperate with the turntable 4 to lock the turntable 4; the edge of the upper cover 1 is provided with a mounting part 11, and the end face of the mounting part 11 is provided with a mounting hole 111.

[0056] In this embodiment, the lower terminal block assembly 2 is snapped together with the upper cover 1. The data cable 7 is wound around the turntable 4, which is mounted on the rotating shaft 5. The two ends of the spring 6 are connected to the turntable 4 and the rotating shaft 5, respectively. The upper terminal block assembly 3 is mounted on the turntable 4. The upper terminal block assembly 3 is connected to the lower terminal block assembly 2, and one end of the data cable 7 is electrically connected to the upper terminal block assembly 3, thus enabling the connection between the data cable 7 and the lower terminal block assembly 2. The data cable 7 can be a TYPE-C data cable, with the other end being a male connector. The lower terminal block assembly 2 can be connected to electronic devices such as chargers, computers, and tablets. Taking a charger as an example, when the data cable 7 storage device is used as a charging device, the lower terminal block assembly 2 is connected to the charger to achieve the charging function.

[0057] When the data cable 7 is pulled, the turntable 4 rotates, the upper terminal block assembly 3 rotates with the turntable 4, the spring 6 stores power so that the turntable 4 returns to its initial position, and the swing arm assembly 8 can cooperate with the turntable 4 to lock the turntable 4, so that the data cable 7 can be kept in a state of being pulled out to a certain length for user use.

[0058] The upper cover 1 has an edge with a mounting part 11. There are at least two mounting parts 11, which are respectively located at opposite corners of the upper cover 1. Each mounting part 11 has a mounting hole 111. The data cable storage device can be fixedly connected to the housing of the electronic device by screws or bolts through the mounting holes 111 on the mounting part 11, so as to realize the fixed connection between the data cable storage device and the electronic device. This is more convenient than the existing adhesive method and can ensure the installation of the data cable storage device.

[0059] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the upper cover 1 is square, the data cable 7 extends along one corner of the upper cover 1, and the mounting part 11 is located on the other corners of the upper cover 1.

[0060] In this embodiment, the upper cover 1 is approximately square in shape and has four corners, one of which has a through hole for the data cable 7 to pass through. The mounting part 11 can be provided on the other corners of the upper cover 1. In one implementation, mounting parts 11 are provided on three corners of the upper cover 1, which can improve the installation firmness of the data cable storage device.

[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3As shown, the lower terminal block assembly 2 includes a lower cover 21 and a lower terminal block 22; the lower cover 21 is injection molded onto the lower terminal block 22; the upper terminal block assembly 3 includes a plastic base 31 and an upper terminal block 32; the plastic base 31 is injection molded onto the upper terminal block 32.

[0062] Specifically, the upper terminal block 32 is disposed on the plastic base 31, wherein the plastic base 31 is injection molded onto the upper terminal block 32, realizing the function of circuit board + connector. The lower terminal block 22 is disposed in the lower cover 21, wherein the lower cover 21 is injection molded onto the lower terminal block 22, and can also realize the function of circuit board + connector. Compared with the existing method of using circuit boards, it has lower cost and higher integration. The terminals of the upper terminal block 32 and the lower terminal block 22 are electrically connected, and one end of the data line 7 is electrically connected to the upper terminal block 32, thus realizing the connection between the data line 7 and the lower terminal block 22.

[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the turntable 4 is provided with a plurality of locking structures 41, which are spaced along the edge of the lower terminal block 22 on the turntable 4, and a receiving groove 42 is formed between two adjacent locking structures 41.

[0064] Furthermore, the swing arm assembly 8 includes: a retaining spring 81, an upper swing arm 82, and a lower swing arm 83; the retaining spring 81 is engaged with the lower cover 21; the upper swing arm 82 is rotatably connected to the lower cover 21 and abuts against the retaining spring 81; the lower swing arm 83 is rotatably connected to the lower cover 21 and is located between the upper swing arm 82 and the lower cover 21.

[0065] It is important to understand that during the molding process of the upper terminal block 32, i.e., when the upper terminal block 32 and the plastic base 31 are injection molded, and when the lower terminal block 22 and the lower cover 21 are injection molded, both are achieved using an injection molding machine. Specifically, please refer to... Figure 7 and Figure 8First, the upper terminal block 32 and the lower terminal block 22 need to be obtained through a stamping process. The terminal blocks obtained after stamping are generally connected by a strip 9, which facilitates subsequent automatic production on the injection molding machine. For example, the lower terminal block 22 can be automatically fed to the injection molding machine through the strip 9 to achieve automated production. However, for the lower terminal block 22, because the plastic part of the lower terminal block 22 needs to cooperate with the swing arm assembly 8 to complete the locking function of the turntable 4, the outer diameter of the plastic part will be larger than the outer diameter of the lower terminal block 22. That is, part of the plastic part will protrude from the edge of the lower terminal block 22. In this way, if the lower terminal block 22 is connected by the strip 9 for injection molding, two notches will be added to the plastic part (the notches left after the strip 9 is removed). Ultimately, this will affect the locking assembly when pulling data, such as making the pull line not smooth.

[0066] In this embodiment, the locking function is achieved by transferring the structure that cooperates with the swing arm assembly 8 to the turntable 4. Specifically, the locking function is achieved by replacing the plastic part of the original lower terminal block 22 with the locking structure 41 on the turntable 4. Specifically, the lower cover 21 has two slots, and the two ends of the retaining spring 81 are engaged in the slots of the lower cover 21. The upper swing arm 82 is mounted on the first mounting post 211 of the lower cover 21, and the lower swing arm 83 is mounted on the second mounting post 212 of the lower cover 21. Both the upper swing arm 82 and the lower swing arm 83 are rotatably connected to the lower cover 21. When the data cable 7 is pulled, the data cable 7 drives the turntable 4 to rotate, the turntable 4 drives the upper swing arm 82 to swing, and the upper swing arm 82 drives the lower swing arm 83 to rotate. When locking the turntable 4, the upper swing arm 82 abuts against the lower swing arm 83 and the locking structure 41 respectively, causing the turntable 4 to stop rotating. In this way, the plastic parts of the lower terminal block 22 do not need to extend beyond the edge of the lower terminal block 22, so that the lower terminal block 22 can be connected by the material strip 9 to realize automated feeding, which greatly improves production efficiency and reduces production costs.

[0067] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the upper swing arm 82 includes a first locking block 821, a second locking block 822, and an abutment portion 823; the first locking block 821 and the second locking block 822 are disposed on both sides of the upper swing arm 82; the abutment portion 823 is located at the bottom of the upper swing arm 82; the lower swing arm 83 includes a third locking block 831, which is disposed at intervals along the edge of the lower swing arm 83 on the side of the lower swing arm 83 near the upper swing arm 82.

[0068] In this embodiment, the size of the abutment portion 823 of the upper swing arm 82 is adapted to the size of the receiving groove 42. In the initial state, the abutment portion 823 is located within the receiving groove 42. When the data cable 7 is pulled, the turntable 4 rotates, the abutment portion 823 disengages from the receiving groove 42 and slides on the locking structure 41, the upper swing arm 82 swings, and the second locking block 822 of the upper swing arm 82 abuts against the third locking block 831 of the lower swing arm 83, causing the lower swing arm 83 to swing with the upper swing arm 82. When the data cable 7 is stopped being pulled, the abutment portion 823 abuts against the locking structure 41, the first locking block 821 abuts against the third locking block 831, causing the turntable 4 to stop rotating, thereby achieving the anti-reverse function, and the data cable 7 stops moving.

[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 The third locking block 831 is provided with an abutment groove 832. When the turntable 4 is locked, the first locking block 821 abuts against the abutment groove 832.

[0070] In this embodiment, when the turntable 4 is in the locked state, the abutting part 823 of the upper swing arm 82 abuts against the locking structure 41, and the first locking block 821 of the upper swing arm 82 engages with the abutting groove 832 on the third locking block 831 of the lower swing arm 83 to lock the turntable 4, and the data line 7 is prevented from retracting.

[0071] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 As shown, a partition structure 311 is provided on the back of the plastic base 31, and the terminals of the upper terminal block 32 are located between the partition structures 311; the turntable 4 is provided with a clearance hole 43 for the data cable 7 to pass through at the position corresponding to the partition structure 311.

[0072] In this embodiment, when installing the upper terminal block 32, the data cable 7 is first soldered onto the upper terminal block 32. To prevent short circuits between the terminals of the upper terminal block 32 during soldering, a partition structure 311 is provided on the back of the plastic base 31. During soldering, the solder joints are isolated by the partition structure 311, thus preventing the solder from connecting adjacent terminals together and causing a short circuit. After soldering the data cable 7 onto the upper terminal block 32, the plastic base 31 with the upper terminal block 32 is installed on the turntable 4. The data cable 7 can pass through the clearance hole 43 on the turntable 4 and then be wound around the turntable 4.

[0073] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10As shown, the turntable 4 includes: a first mounting structure 44, a second mounting structure 45, a third mounting structure 46, and a fourth mounting structure 47; the spring 6 is housed within the first mounting structure 44, and one end of the spring 6 is connected to the third mounting structure 46; the first mounting structure 44 is provided with a first notch, and the second mounting structure 45 is provided with a second notch, the first notch and the second notch forming a fixing groove 48; the end of the data cable 7 connected to the turntable 4 is provided with a latching part 71, the latching part 71 engaging with the fixing groove 48; the fourth mounting structure 47 is located on one side of the third mounting structure 46 and is spaced apart from the second mounting structure 45.

[0074] In this embodiment, the first mounting structure 44 is an arc-shaped structure and is arranged around the rotating shaft 5. The spring 6 is located within the space surrounded by the first mounting structure 44, and one end of the spring 6 is fixedly connected to the third mounting structure 46. The first mounting structure 44 and the second mounting structure 45 have notches at their contact points with the data cable 7, forming a fixing groove 48. The data cable 7 has a snap-fit ​​part 71 that matches the size of the fixing groove 48. The data cable 7 is clamped between the first mounting structure 44 and the second mounting structure 45 through the snap-fit ​​part 71, achieving a fixed connection between the data cable 7 and the turntable 4. This eliminates the need for glue bonding, preventing the data cable 7 from loosening due to glue failure. To provide space for soldering the data cable 7, the fourth mounting structure 47 is hollowed out between the fourth mounting structure 47 and the second mounting structure 45 to form the clearance hole 43. The fourth mounting structure 47 abuts against the data cable 7, providing support for the data cable 7.

[0075] In some embodiments, the rotating shaft 5 is a metal rotating shaft, and the upper cover 1 is formed on the rotating shaft 5 by injection molding.

[0076] In this embodiment, the pivot 5 is made of metal material and can be injection molded onto the upper cover, which can increase the strength of the pivot and thus extend the service life of the data cable storage device.

[0077] In some embodiments, the present invention also provides an electronic device, which includes a housing and a data cable storage device as described above for easy installation. The data cable storage device is fixedly connected to the housing via the mounting portion. Specific details are provided in an embodiment of a data cable storage device, and will not be repeated here.

[0078] In summary, the data cable storage device and electronic device that are easy to install provided by this utility model have the following beneficial effects:

[0079] The data cable storage device has a mounting part on its top cover, which is fixed to the electronic device housing by screws through the mounting holes on the mounting part. This is more convenient than the existing adhesive method and can ensure the installation of the data cable storage device.

[0080] By setting the locking structure on the turntable, that is, transferring the locking structure from the plastic base to the turntable, the plastic base is injection molded into the upper terminal block. The upper terminal blocks can be connected together by the material strip to achieve automated production. Compared with the traditional manual operation to complete the injection molding process of a single upper terminal block, the production efficiency is improved.

[0081] A partition structure is set on the back of the plastic base. During soldering, the solder joints are isolated by the partition structure. This can prevent the solder from connecting two adjacent terminals together and causing a short circuit.

[0082] The hinge is made of metal, and the top cover is injection molded onto the hinge. This increases the strength of the hinge, thereby extending the service life of the data cable storage device.

[0083] The data cable is clamped between the first and second mounting structures via its snap-fit ​​part, thus achieving a fixed connection between the data cable and the turntable. This eliminates the need for glue, preventing the data cable from loosening due to glue failure, and also allows it to withstand greater pressure.

[0084] It should be understood that the application of this utility model is not limited to the examples above. Those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
