Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of lanyard technology, and in particular to a lanyard structure, a lanyard data cable, and a power bank. Background Technology
[0002] Portable power banks are common charging devices, and charging cables are used for data transfer and charging. Portable power banks and data cables are often cumbersome to carry around when out and about. With industry development, some portable power banks have emerged that can use the charging cable as a lanyard. When charging is needed, the charging cable can be detached from the power bank; when not charging, the charging cable can be attached to the power bank as a lanyard.
[0003] However, existing lanyard structures typically employ snap-on, plug-in, or rotating storage methods. When the power bank is carried or hung, the connection between the power bank and the lanyard can easily loosen, leading to the power bank falling and being damaged. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of this, this application provides a lanyard structure, a lanyard data cable, and a power bank to improve the technical problem of unstable lanyard connection in existing power banks, which easily leads to the power bank falling and being damaged.
[0005] One embodiment of this application provides a lanyard structure for attaching a data cable. The data cable includes a cable body and a charging connector disposed at the end of the cable body. The lanyard structure includes a storage compartment and an angle limiting component. The storage compartment includes a compartment body and a rotating base, the rotating base being mounted in the compartment body and rotatable relative to the compartment body. The rotating base has an insertion space, and the compartment body has an opening communicating with the insertion space. The charging connector is configured to be able to be inserted into the insertion space through the opening and to be removed from the insertion space through the opening. The rotating base is configured to drive the charging connector to rotate to a position offset from the opening when the charging connector is inserted into the insertion space, thereby preventing the charging connector from disengaging from the insertion space. The angle limiting component is assembled between the compartment body and the rotating base. The angle limiting component is configured to constrain the position of the rotating base relative to the compartment body when the rotating base rotates relative to the compartment body.
[0006] In the aforementioned lanyard structure, the rotating base, when rotating relative to the storage compartment, drives the charging connector to rotate until it is misaligned with the opening in the compartment, thus enabling the data cable to be stored. Simultaneously, the angle limiting component provides control over the rotation angle of the rotating base, reducing the risk of the charging connector detaching from the storage compartment due to the rotating base's angular rotation causing the compartment's stop to fail. Therefore, this design helps to improve the stability and security of the data cable connection while ensuring portability.
[0007] In some embodiments of this application, the angle limiting component includes a holding member and an elastic member. The holding member is installed between the rotating base and the chamber body, and one end of the elastic member abuts against the holding member, while the other end abuts against the rotating base. The holding member is configured to press against the chamber body in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating base under the action of the elastic member, thereby preventing the rotating base from rotating relative to the chamber body.
[0008] Under the elastic force of the elastic element, the holding component always presses the chamber body in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating seat, maintaining frictional contact with the inner wall of the chamber body. This allows the holding component to apply a damping force during the relative rotation of the rotating seat and the chamber body, thus hindering the rotation of the rotating seat relative to the chamber body. When the external force acting on the rotating seat is removed, the rotating seat can maintain a specific position under the action of the damping force. Through the cooperation of the holding component and the elastic element, the rotation angle of the rotating seat can be controlled, reducing the risk of angular backspin.
[0009] In some embodiments of this application, the chamber body is provided with a sliding channel, and when the rotating seat rotates relative to the chamber body, the pressure member slides within the sliding channel. The sliding channel guides the rotating seat, reducing the risk of displacement and improving the stability and ease of installation of the rope-hanging structure.
[0010] In some embodiments of this application, the housing is provided with a first groove and a second groove within the sliding channel, the first groove and the second groove being spaced apart along the rotation direction of the rotating seat. The rotating seat has a first position and a second position, and is configured to be switchable to the first position or the second position. When the rotating seat is in the first position, the retaining member is engaged in the first groove, and the charging connector is configured to be able to be inserted into and removed from the insertion space. When the rotating seat is in the second position, the retaining member is engaged in the second groove, and the charging connector is configured to be offset from the opening.
[0011] Since the chamber has a first groove and a second groove in the sliding channel, when the rotating seat moves to the first position or the second position, the holding member can be engaged in the first groove or the second groove to form tactile feedback (such as a "click" positioning), which helps to improve the user's operating experience.
[0012] In some embodiments of this application, the holding element is a ball bearing, which is rotatably connected to the rotating seat and the housing.
[0013] By using ball bearings as the retaining element, the sliding friction between the rotating seat and the chamber can be transformed into rolling friction. Compared to sliding friction, rolling friction has lower frictional force. Therefore, it not only requires less effort for the user to rotate the rotating seat, but also allows for smoother relative sliding between the rotating seat and the chamber.
[0014] In some embodiments of this application, the side wall of the rotating seat is provided with guide ribs, which abut against the inner wall of the chamber.
[0015] By setting guide ribs, the surface contact between the rotating seat and the chamber can be transformed into a line contact, which helps to better reduce the friction between the rotating seat and the chamber, thereby reducing the risk that the user will be unable to rotate the rotating seat due to excessive friction between the rotating seat and the chamber.
[0016] In some embodiments of this application, the rotating seat is provided with a driving unit located within the insertion space and configured to drive the charging connector to rotate when the rotating seat rotates relative to the housing. When the rotating seat rotates relative to the housing under the action of an external force, the driving unit can drive the charging connector to rotate relative to the housing, thereby achieving misalignment between the charging connector and the insertion interface, that is, locking the charging connector.
[0017] In some embodiments of this application, the drive unit is provided with a limiting groove, which is configured to engage with the charging connector when the charging connector is inserted into the insertion space. The limiting groove helps reduce the risk of the charging connector falling off or wobbling when rotating relative to the compartment body, thus improving the stability of the hanging rope structure.
[0018] In some embodiments of this application, the rotating base is further provided with a buckle, and the compartment body is provided with a sliding groove, with the buckle engaging with the sliding groove. When the rotating base rotates relative to the compartment body, the buckle slides within the sliding groove. By adopting a buckle structure, it is convenient to repair or replace the hanging rope structure. Technicians only need to disconnect the connection between the buckle and the sliding groove to disassemble the rotating base without damaging the storage compartment.
[0019] One embodiment of this application provides a lanyard data cable. The lanyard data cable includes a data cable and a lanyard structure as described in any of the above embodiments. The data cable includes a cable body and a charging connector disposed at the end of the cable body. The charging connector is configured to be able to be inserted into and removed from the insertion space in the lanyard structure.
[0020] By adopting the aforementioned lanyard structure, the portability of the lanyard data cable can be ensured while improving its stability and safety, reducing the risk of the power bank falling off and being damaged due to unstable lanyard connection.
[0021] One embodiment of this application provides a portable power bank. The portable power bank includes a battery assembly and a lanyard structure as described in any of the above embodiments, the lanyard structure being detachably mounted to the battery assembly.
[0022] By employing the aforementioned lanyard structure in the power bank, the portability of the power bank can be ensured while improving its stability and safety, reducing the risk of the power bank falling off and being damaged due to unstable lanyard connection. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The following detailed description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will further illustrate this application. Detailed Implementation
[0037] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments.
[0038] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application.
[0039] Portable power banks are common charging devices, and charging cables are used for data transfer and charging. Portable power banks and data cables are often cumbersome to carry around when out and about. With industry development, some portable power banks have emerged that can use the charging cable as a lanyard. When charging is needed, the charging cable can be detached from the power bank; when not charging, the charging cable can be attached to the power bank as a lanyard.
[0040] However, existing lanyard structures typically employ snap-on, plug-in, or rotating storage methods. When the power bank is carried or hung, the connection between the power bank and the lanyard can easily loosen, leading to the power bank falling and being damaged.
[0041] One embodiment of this application provides a lanyard structure for attaching a data cable. The data cable includes a cable body and a charging connector disposed at the end of the cable body. The lanyard structure includes a storage compartment and an angle limiting component. The storage compartment includes a compartment body and a rotating base, the rotating base being mounted in the compartment body and rotatable relative to the compartment body. The rotating base has an insertion space, and the compartment body has an opening communicating with the insertion space. The charging connector is configured to be able to be inserted into the insertion space through the opening and to be removed from the insertion space through the opening. The rotating base is configured to drive the charging connector to rotate to a position offset from the opening when the charging connector is inserted into the insertion space, thereby preventing the charging connector from disengaging from the insertion space. The angle limiting component is assembled between the compartment body and the rotating base. The angle limiting component is configured to constrain the position of the rotating base relative to the compartment body when the rotating base rotates relative to the compartment body.
[0042] In the aforementioned lanyard structure, the rotating base, when rotating relative to the storage compartment, drives the charging connector to rotate until it is misaligned with the opening in the compartment, thus enabling the data cable to be stored. Simultaneously, the angle limiting component provides control over the rotation angle of the rotating base, reducing the risk of the charging connector detaching from the storage compartment due to the rotating base's angular rotation causing the compartment's stop to fail. Therefore, this design helps to improve the stability and security of the data cable connection while ensuring portability.
[0043] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0044] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 One embodiment of this application provides a lanyard data cable 100. The lanyard data cable 100 includes a lanyard structure 10 and a data cable 20, with the lanyard structure 10 used to hang the data cable 20. By hanging the data cable 20 with the lanyard structure 10, the charging function and the lanyard function of the data cable 20 can be combined, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.
[0045] For example, when the data cable 20 is attached to the lanyard structure 10, the data cable 20 can act as a lanyard to be suspended on a target object (specifically a wrist, hook, or other support).
[0046] When the data cable 20 is detached from the lanyard structure 10, one end of the data cable 20 is connected to a power source (not shown), and the other end is connected to a device to be charged (not shown), thereby charging the device. The device to be charged can be an electronic product such as a mobile phone or iPad.
[0047] In some embodiments, the data cable 20 includes a cable body 21 and a charging connector 22 disposed at the end of the cable body 21. The charging connector 22 can be a Lightning interface, a USB-C interface, etc.
[0048] The cable 21 is configured to act as a lanyard when the data cable 20 is attached to the lanyard structure 10. The charging connector 22 is configured to connect to a power source or a device to be charged when the data cable 20 is detached from the lanyard structure 10.
[0049] In some embodiments, the lanyard structure 10 is mounted on the power bank 200 (such as a portable charger) to facilitate user use and carrying of the power bank 200. Exemplarily, the lanyard structure 10 is suspended from the power bank 200 by a thin line (not shown). Specifically, the power bank 200 has a hanging hole (not shown) on its edge, one end of the thin line passes through the hanging hole, and the other end of the thin line passes through the lanyard structure 10.
[0050] In other embodiments, the thin thread may be omitted, and the hanging rope structure 10 can be directly attached to the hanging hole of the power bank 200 through the snap ring. This application does not limit this, and those skilled in the art can choose according to the actual situation.
[0051] In some embodiments, the line 21 is configured to be flexibly deformable.
[0052] In some embodiments, there are two charging connectors 22, one of which is connected to a power source and the other is connected to an electronic device.
[0053] In other embodiments, the number of charging connectors 2212 may also be 3, 4, or other numbers. This application does not limit this number, and those skilled in the art can choose according to the actual situation.
[0054] Please refer to the following: Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the hanging rope structure 10 includes a storage compartment 11 and an angle limiting component 12. The storage compartment 11 includes a compartment body 111 and a rotating seat 112, the rotating seat 112 being installed inside the compartment body 111 and being rotatable relative to the compartment body 111.
[0055] The rotating base 112 has a insertion space 1121, and the housing 111 has an opening 1111, which is connected to the insertion space 1121. The charging connector 22 is configured to be able to be inserted into the insertion space 1121 through the opening 1111, and to be removed from the insertion space 1121 through the opening 1111.
[0056] The rotating base 112 is configured to drive the charging connector 22 to rotate to a position that is misaligned with the opening 1111 when the charging connector 22 is inserted into the insertion space 1121, so as to prevent the charging connector 22 from disengaging from the insertion space 1121, thereby realizing the storage of the data cable 20.
[0057] It is worth noting that, as mentioned above, when the charging connector 22 is inserted into the insertion space 1121, it specifically means that the charging connector 22 is completely contained within the insertion space 1121. Furthermore, the charging connector 22 is offset from the opening 1111, specifically meaning that at the opening 1111, the projection of the compartment 111 along the insertion direction overlaps with the charging connector 22.
[0058] Understandably, when the data cable 20 is not in use, the charging connector 22 of the data cable 20 is inserted into the plugging space 1121 along the opening 1111. The rotating base 112 rotates, causing the charging connector 22 to rotate synchronously, until the charging connector 22 is misaligned with the opening 1111, thus locking the data cable 20 in place. When the data cable 20 needs to be used, simply rotate the rotating base 112 in the opposite direction to return it to its initial position and remove the charging connector 22 from the plugging space 1121 to release the lock on the data cable 20.
[0059] It should be noted that the initial position specifically refers to the position of the rotating seat 112 when the projection of the compartment 111 at the opening 1111 along the insertion direction does not overlap with the charging connector 22.
[0060] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the angle limiting component 12 is assembled between the chamber 111 and the rotating seat 112, and the angle limiting component 12 is configured to constrain the position of the rotating seat 112 relative to the chamber 111 when the rotating seat 112 rotates relative to the chamber 111.
[0061] By setting the angle limiting component 12, the rotation angle of the rotating seat 112 can be controlled, thereby reducing the risk that the stop of the compartment 111 will fail due to the angle rotation of the rotating seat 112, and the charging connector 22 will be disengaged from the storage compartment 11.
[0062] The lanyard structure 10 provided in this application, through the cooperation of the rotating seat 112 and the angle limiting component 12, can improve the stability and safety of the lanyard data cable 100 while ensuring its portability, and reduce the risk of the product falling off and being damaged due to unstable lanyard connection.
[0063] Please refer to the following: Figures 5 to 7In some embodiments, the angle limiting assembly 12 includes a holding member 121 and an elastic member 122. The holding member 121 is mounted between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111. One end of the elastic member 122 abuts against the holding member 121, and the other end abuts against the rotating seat 112. The holding member 121 is configured to press the chamber 111 in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating seat 112 under the action of the elastic member 122, thereby preventing the rotating seat 112 from rotating relative to the chamber 111.
[0064] Understandably, under the elastic force of the elastic member 122, the holding member 121 always holds the chamber body 111 in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating seat 112, so that the holding member 121 maintains frictional contact with the inner wall of the chamber body 111. In other words, the holding member 121 can apply a damping force during the relative rotation of the rotating seat 112 and the chamber body 111 to prevent the rotating seat 112 from rotating relative to the chamber body 111.
[0065] When an external force is applied to the rotating seat 112, the rotating seat 112 needs to overcome the damping force to rotate relative to the chamber 111. When the external force acting on the rotating seat 112 is removed, the rotating seat 112 can maintain a specific position under the action of the damping force.
[0066] By cooperating with the holding member 121 and the elastic member 122, the rotation angle of the rotating seat 112 can be controlled, reducing the risk that the stop of the compartment 111 will fail due to the rotation of the rotating seat 112, and the charging connector 22 will detach from the storage compartment 11.
[0067] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the chamber 111 is provided with a sliding channel 1112, and when the rotating seat 112 rotates relative to the chamber 111, the pressing member 121 slides in the sliding channel 1112.
[0068] By setting up the sliding channel 1112, the rotating seat 112 can be guided, which helps to reduce the risk of the rotating seat 112 shifting and improves the stability and installability of the hanging rope structure 10.
[0069] In some embodiments, within the sliding channel 1112, the housing 111 is provided with a first groove 1113 and a second groove 1114, the first groove 1113 and the second groove 1114 being spaced apart along the rotation direction of the rotating seat 112. The rotating seat 112 has a first position A and a second position B, and is configured to be able to switch to the first position A or the second position B.
[0070] When the rotating base 112 is in the first position A, the holding member 121 is engaged in the first groove 1113, and the charging connector 22 is configured to be able to be inserted into and removed from the insertion space 1121. When the rotating base 112 is in the second position B, the holding member 121 is engaged in the second groove 1114, and the charging connector 22 is configured to be offset from the opening 1111.
[0071] Understandably, when the rotating seat 112 moves to the first position A or the second position B, the holding member 121 can be engaged in the first groove 1113 or the second groove 1114 to form tactile feedback (such as a "click" positioning), which helps to improve the user's operating experience.
[0072] In some embodiments, the retaining element 121 is a ball bearing, which is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the rotating seat 112 and the housing 111. Understandably, when the rotating seat 112 rotates relative to the housing 111, the ball bearing will roll under the action of the rotating seat 112 or the housing 111.
[0073] By using ball bearings as the retaining element 121, the sliding friction between the retaining element 121 and the chamber 111 can be transformed into rolling friction. Compared to sliding friction, rolling friction has less frictional force. Firstly, the user can overcome the damping force between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111 with a smaller force to achieve relative rotation between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111. Secondly, it facilitates smoother relative sliding between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111.
[0074] In other embodiments, the holding member 121 may also be other structures, such as protrusions, rubber pads, etc. This application does not limit this, and those skilled in the art can choose according to the actual situation.
[0075] For example, the angle limiting component 12 can be a ball screw or a ball plunger. Both the ball screw and the ball plunger are equipped with a spring (i.e., the aforementioned elastic element 122) and a steel ball (i.e., the aforementioned holding element 121). Through the cooperation of the spring and the steel ball, the rotation angle of the rotating seat 112 can be controlled. Please refer to [reference needed]. Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the side wall of the rotating seat 112 is provided with guide ribs 1122, which abut against the inner wall of the compartment 111.
[0076] By setting the guide rib 1122, the surface contact between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111 can be transformed into a line contact, which helps to better reduce the friction between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111, thereby reducing the risk that the user will be unable to rotate the rotating seat 112 due to excessive friction between the rotating seat 112 and the chamber 111.
[0077] In some embodiments, the rotating base 112 is provided with a drive unit 1123, which is located within the insertion space 1121 and is configured to drive the charging connector 22 to rotate when the rotating base 112 rotates relative to the housing 111.
[0078] Understandably, when the rotating seat 112 rotates relative to the chamber 111 under the action of an external force, the driving part 1123 can drive the charging connector 22 to rotate relative to the chamber 111, so as to realize the misalignment of the charging connector 22 with the plug interface, that is, to realize the locking of the charging connector 22.
[0079] Please refer to the following: Figures 4 to 7 In some embodiments, the drive unit 1123 is provided with a limiting groove 11231, which is configured to engage with the charging connector 22 when the charging connector 22 is inserted into the insertion space 1121.
[0080] The setting of the limiting groove 11231 helps to reduce the risk of the charging connector 22 falling off or shaking when rotating relative to the compartment 111, and further improves the stability of the hanging rope structure 10.
[0081] In some embodiments, the rotating seat 112 is further provided with a buckle 1124, and the chamber 111 is provided with a slide groove 1115, the buckle 1124 engaging with the slide groove 1115. When the rotating seat 112 rotates relative to the chamber 111, the buckle 1124 slides within the slide groove 1115.
[0082] By adopting the buckle 1124 structure, firstly, it facilitates the maintenance or replacement of the hanging rope structure 10. Technicians only need to disconnect the connection between the buckle 1124 and the slide 1115 to disassemble the rotating seat 112 without damaging the storage compartment 11. Secondly, when the rotating seat 112 rotates to the target position (specifically, the first position A or the second position B), the groove wall of the slide 1115 can stop the buckle 1124 to limit the rotation angle of the rotating seat 112 and reduce the risk of damage to the hanging rope structure 10 due to excessive rotation angle of the rotating seat 112.
[0083] Please refer to the following: Figure 9 and Figure 10 One embodiment of this application provides a portable power bank 200. The portable power bank 200 can be a power bank, a handheld energy storage device, etc. This application does not limit the scope of the application; those skilled in the art can choose according to the actual situation.
[0084] In some embodiments, the power bank 200 includes a battery assembly 220 and a lanyard structure 210 as described above, the lanyard structure 210 being detachably mounted to the battery assembly 220. When the power bank 200 is not in use, the user inserts the charging connector 22 into the insertion space 1121 along the opening 1111 and rotates the rotating seat 112 against the damping force of the angle limiting component 12.
[0085] The rotating seat 112 drives the charging connector 22 to rotate until the charging connector 22 is misaligned with the opening 1111. At this time, the angle limiting component 12 can constrain the position of the rotating seat 112 relative to the compartment 111, and the data cable 20 can act as a hanging rope to suspend it on the target object.
[0086] When the power bank 200 is needed, the user simply needs to overcome the damping force of the angle limiting component 12, rotate the rotating base 112 in the opposite direction to return to the initial position, and remove the charging connector 22 from the insertion space 1121 to release the lock on the data cable 20. One end of the data cable 20 is connected to the power source, and the other end is connected to the device to be charged to enable charging of the device.
[0087] The power bank 200 provided in this application, by employing the aforementioned lanyard structure 10, not only allows for the storage of the data cable 20 but also provides control over the rotation angle of the rotating base 112. This reduces the risk of the charging connector 22 detaching from the storage compartment 11 due to the rotating base 112 rotating at an angle and causing the stop of the storage compartment 11 to fail. Therefore, while ensuring the portability of the power bank 200, its stability and safety are improved, reducing the risk of the power bank 200 falling off and being damaged due to unstable lanyard connection.
[0088] Furthermore, those skilled in the art should recognize that the above embodiments are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application. Any appropriate changes and variations made to the above embodiments within the essential spirit and scope of this application fall within the scope of this application's disclosure.
