Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of adapter cable technology, specifically relating to an adapter cable with waterproof function. Background Technology

[0002] Adapter cables are specialized cables used for connecting components and adapter boards, or connecting sockets on adapter boards. They are widely used in the computer and communication fields. Various adapter cables are often used to achieve interconnection and communication between computer systems or modules. Serial port adapter cables are commonly used.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN214506005U discloses a waterproof serial port adapter cable, including a cable body, a first serial port on one side of the cable body, and a second serial port on the other end of the cable body. A hydrophobic layer is provided on the surface of the outer casing, and this hydrophobic layer is made of a siloxane material. Based on the hydrophobic and oleophobic properties of siloxane, the outer casing is made hydrophobic. Simultaneously, a waterproof layer is provided inside the hydrophobic layer, giving the outer casing good waterproofing. When external force is applied to the surface of the outer casing, the movable rod can extend or shorten within the outer cylinder. Multiple sets of movable parts are evenly distributed on the outside of the inner core, improving the cable's compressive strength and preventing damage from pressure. Hook and loop fasteners A and B are connected; after folding the cable in half, the elastic band is used to wrap the cable. The cooperation of hook and loop fasteners A and B allows the cable to be bundled and organized, preventing tangling.

[0004] However, the aforementioned patent also has corresponding drawbacks. First, it requires folding the cable in half and binding the cable by attaching Velcro A and Velcro B together, which requires many steps and is relatively complicated to operate. At the same time, its waterproof component structure is relatively complex, resulting in high production costs and reducing the utilization rate of the adapter cable. Therefore, we propose an adapter cable with waterproof function to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0021] To make the purpose and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific implementations of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.

[0022] like Figure 1-4 As shown, a waterproof adapter cable includes an adapter component 1. A storage component 2 is connected to the outer surface of the adapter component 1. The storage component 2 includes a positioning ring 201, a positioning plate 202 connected to one side of the positioning ring 201, and a set of positioning grooves 203 formed on one side of the positioning plate 202. A waterproof component 3 is connected to the outer surface of the adapter component 1. The waterproof component 3 includes two connecting rings 301, and two connecting straps 302 are connected to the outer surface of each connecting ring 301. The ends of the two sets of connecting straps 302 that are far apart from each other are respectively connected to a first waterproof cover 303 and a second waterproof cover 304. A positioning cover 305 is connected to one side of the second waterproof cover 304. The positioning ring 201 allows for convenient... The movable storage component 2, with each positioning slot 203 adapted to the wire body 101, allows for convenient and quick insertion of the wire body 101 into the positioning slot 203. Combined with the rebound force of the positioning plate 202, it can clamp the wire body 101, facilitating its organization and simplifying the operation process. The first waterproof cover 303 is adapted to the second power socket 104, the second waterproof cover 304 is adapted to the first power socket 102, the positioning cover 305 is adapted to the plug 103, and the rebound force of the connecting strap 302 enhances the waterproofing effect of the first and second waterproof covers 303 and 304 on the adapter component 1, while reducing waterproofing costs.

[0023] like Figure 2-4As shown, the adapter assembly 1 includes a conductor body 101. The left and right ends of the conductor body 101 are electrically connected to a first power connector 102 and a second power connector 104, respectively.
