[0037] Various embodiments of this application will be described more fully below. This application may have various embodiments, and adjustments and changes may be made therein. However, it should be understood that there is no intention to limit the various embodiments of this application to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but rather this application should be understood to cover all adjustments, equivalents, and / or alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the various embodiments of this application.

[0038] In the following, the terms “comprising” or “may include” as used in the various embodiments of this application indicate the presence of the disclosed functions, operations, or elements, and do not limit the addition of one or more functions, operations, or elements. Furthermore, as used in the various embodiments of this application, the terms “comprising,” “having,” and their cognates are intended only to indicate a particular feature, number, step, operation, element, component, or combination of the foregoing, and should not be construed as primarily excluding the presence of one or more other features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations of the foregoing, or the possibility of adding one or more combinations of features, numbers, steps, operations, elements, components, or combinations of the foregoing.

[0039] like Figure 1-6As shown, a portable power bank includes a power bank body 1, a data cable 2, and a plug 3. A first end 21 of the data cable is connected to the power bank body 1, and a second end 22 of the data cable is connected to the plug 3. The plug 3 has two states relative to the power bank body 1: a retracted state, a first usage state, and a second usage state. In the retracted state, the plug 3 is completely housed within the power bank body 1. In the first usage state, the plug 3 is installed and exposed within the power bank body 1. In the second usage state, the plug 3 is detached from the power bank body 1. This application provides multiple usage modes by switching between the various states of the plug 3, allowing users to choose any usage mode according to their needs, thereby improving the flexibility and reliability of the device.

[0040] Specifically, by designing the plug 3 to have a retractable state, it can be completely housed within the power bank body 1 when not in use, greatly reducing the overall carrying volume and making it convenient for users to carry around, especially suitable for situations with limited space, such as backpacks or pockets, thus improving convenience and flexibility. The plug 3 also has a first and a second usage state, meeting the needs of different scenarios. In the first usage state, the plug 3 is installed and exposed on the power bank body 1, serving as a charging port for easy direct connection to devices. In the second usage state, the plug 3 can be detached from the power bank body 1, allowing users to adjust its position as needed for better connection to the device being charged, increasing versatility and flexibility.

[0041] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the power bank body 1 has a receiving groove 11 that communicates with the outside world. The second end 22 of the data cable passes through the receiving groove 11. The plug 3 is completely contained in the receiving groove 11 in the storage state and separated from the receiving groove 11 in the second use state. An installation component 4 is provided between the groove wall of the receiving groove 11 and the plug 3. In the first use state, the plug 3 is installed on the groove wall of the receiving groove 11 through the installation component 4, and the plug end 31 of the plug 3 is exposed in the receiving groove 11.

[0042] This application designs a receiving slot 11 on the power bank body 1 that connects to the outside, so that the plug 3 can be cleverly stored inside when not in use, greatly reducing the external protrusion and improving the overall compactness and portability. The plug 3 is installed on the wall of the receiving slot 11 by the mounting component 4, and can also be disassembled to separate from the receiving slot 11. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the connection, but also allows for free switching between being installed on the wall of the receiving slot 11 (first use state) and being completely separated (second use state), meeting diverse charging needs.

[0043] like Figure 2 , 5As shown, the mounting component 4 includes a mounting block 41 and a mounting groove 42. The mounting groove 42 is located on the plug 3, and the mounting block 41 is located on the groove wall of the receiving groove 11. The mounting block 41 and the mounting groove 42 are adapted to each other to allow the plug 3 to be mounted on the groove wall of the receiving groove 11. This application, through the cooperation of the mounting block 41 and the mounting groove 42, not only facilitates quick installation and removal of the plug 3 by the user, but also reduces the risk of the plug 3 shaking or falling off, ensuring the smooth progress of the charging process.

[0044] like Figure 3 As shown, a limiting structure 5 is provided between the plug 3 and the wall of the receiving groove 11. When the plug 3 is in the stored state, it is restricted to the receiving groove 11 by the limiting structure 5. The design of the limiting structure 5 in this application makes the plug 3 more securely placed in the receiving groove 11, preventing the plug 3 from sliding out of the receiving groove 11, thereby enhancing the stability and safety of the power bank.

[0045] Specifically, the limiting structure 5 includes an elastic bump structure or a magnetic attraction structure.

[0046] In one embodiment, the limiting structure 5 includes an elastic protrusion structure composed of multiple elastic protrusions. The multiple elastic protrusions are disposed on the surface of the plug. When the plug 3 is in the retracted state, the elastic protrusions on the plug 3 press against the groove wall of the receiving groove 11, making the plug 3 more firmly disposed in the receiving groove 11, preventing the plug 3 from sliding out of the receiving groove 11, thereby enhancing the stability and safety of the power bank.

[0047] In another embodiment, the limiting structure 5 includes a magnetic attraction structure, such as two magnets, one set on the plug 3 and the other set on the groove wall of the receiving groove 11. When the plug 3 is in the stored state, it is restricted to the receiving groove 11 by the magnetic attraction structure under the action of magnetic attraction, so that the plug 3 is more firmly set in the receiving groove 11, preventing the plug 3 from sliding out of the receiving groove 11, thereby enhancing the stability and safety of the power bank.

[0048] like Figure 1-7As shown, the receiving groove 11 includes a first groove 111 and a second groove 112. The length of the first groove 111 is greater than the length of the plug 3. The plug 3 moves along the first end of the first groove 111 to the second end of the first groove 111. The second groove 112 is located on the side of the first groove 111 and is connected to the first groove 111. In the retracted state, the plug 3 is located at the first end of the first groove 111, and the plug end 31 of the plug 3 is accommodated in the second groove 112. At least a portion of the mounting assembly 4 is located at the second end of the first groove 111. In the first use state, the plug 3 is located at the second end of the first groove 111 and is mounted on the groove wall of the receiving groove 11 through the mounting assembly 4, and the plug end 31 of the plug 3 is exposed in the first groove 111. This application allows the plug 3 to move from the first end of the first groove 111 to the second end of the first groove 111 by means that the length of the first groove 111 is greater than the length of the plug 3. By setting the second groove 112 on the side of the first groove 111 and communicating with the first groove 111, the plug 3 can be completely accommodated in the first groove 111 and the second groove 112 in the storage state. When the plug 3 is flipped so that the plug end 31 of the plug 3 is away from the second groove 112, and the plug 3 is pushed toward the second end of the second groove 112, the plug 3 is installed on the groove wall of the receiving groove 11 by the mounting component 4 in the first use state, and the plug end 31 of the plug 3 is exposed in the first groove 111, thereby realizing the installation of the plug 3 and its exposure in the mobile power supply body 1. Under this structural design, the layout is reasonable, and the plug 3 can flexibly switch between the storage state and the first use state.

[0049] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the receiving slot 11 is located on the first side 12 of the power bank body, the first end 21 of the data cable is connected to the second side 13 of the power bank body, and the second end 22 of the data cable passes through the receiving slot 11 from the second side 13 of the power bank body. This application optimizes the space layout through this design, avoids mutual interference between the plug 3 and the data cable 2 during storage and use, and ensures the compactness and neatness of the overall structure.

[0050] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the power bank body 1 includes a housing 14, a power storage device 15, and a motherboard 16. The power storage device 15 and the motherboard 16 are located inside the housing 14 and are electrically connected. By placing the power storage device 15 and the motherboard 16 inside the housing 14 and electrically connecting them, this application improves the safety and reliability of the product.

[0051] like Figure 1-7As shown, the outer casing 14 includes a housing 141 and a cover 142. The power storage device 15 is disposed within the housing 141, and the mainboard 16 is disposed within the cover 142. The data cable 2 passes through and is fixed within the cover 142. The housing 141 and the cover 142 are detachably connected, allowing the power storage device 15 and the mainboard 16 to be housed within the outer casing 14. This application, through the detachable connection of the housing 141 and the cover 142, achieves partitioned placement of the power storage device 15 and the mainboard 16, as well as the fixing and storage of the data cable 2. This design not only improves the safety and convenience of the power bank but also reduces the difficulty of maintenance.

[0052] The housing 14 also includes a wire clip bracket 143, which is connected to the cover 142 to define a receiving cavity.

[0053] The motherboard 16 is equipped with buttons that are exposed on the outer casing 14. The design of setting buttons on the motherboard 16 and exposing the outer casing 14 in this application improves the ease of operation and intuitiveness of the power bank.

[0054] The motherboard 16 also has a light-emitting component, and a light shield 18 is provided above the light-emitting component. The light shield 18 can effectively protect the light-emitting component and prevent external light from interfering with its normal display.
