When using this patent, the connector is connected to the corresponding device. However, the interface of the aforementioned prior art is exposed, making it susceptible to external environmental influences, which can cause interface deformation or damage, affecting the normal use of the data cable.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need to provide a lanyard-type data cable with an interface protection structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of the existing patents, where the interface is exposed and easily affected by the external environment, leading to interface deformation or damage and affecting the normal use of the data cable, this utility model provides a lanyard-type data cable with an interface protection structure. By using components such as mounting posts, retaining balls, and elastic elements, the data cable and interface can be fixed inside the protective shell, preventing the data cable from detaching from the protective shell.

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model employs the following technical solution: a lanyard-type data cable with an interface protection structure, comprising a protective shell, a protective cavity, a data cable, a first interface, and a second interface. The protective shell has two protective cavities, with the data cable held between them. The data cable has a first interface and a second interface. The cable also includes a limit adjustment block, a mounting post, a retaining ball, and an elastic element. The mounting post is rotatably mounted on the protective shell, with the limit adjustment block fixedly connected to it. The retaining ball is slidably mounted on the mounting post, and an elastic element connects the retaining ball to the mounting post. Two limiting grooves are opened inside the protective shell, and the retaining ball engages with adjacent limiting grooves.

[0007] Furthermore, it also includes a first magnet and a second magnet. Two second magnets are provided on the data line, and a first magnet is provided inside the protective cavity. The first magnet attracts the adjacent second magnet.

[0020] The preferred technical solution of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0021] Example 1: A lanyard-type data cable with an interface protection structure, see reference. Figures 1-4 As shown, the device includes a protective shell 1, a protective cavity 101, a data cable 3, a first interface 4, and a second interface 5. The protective shell 1 has protective cavities 101 on both its left and right sides, with the data cable 3 positioned between the two cavities. The data cable 3 has a first interface 4 on its left end and a second interface 5 on its right end. The first interface 4 and the second interface 5 are located within the two protective cavities 101, respectively. The device also includes a limit adjustment block 7, a mounting post 8, a retaining ball 9, and an elastic element 10. The mounting post 8 is rotatably mounted in the middle of the protective shell 1. The limit adjustment block 7 is welded to the front of the mounting post 8 and contacts the data cable 3. A retaining ball 9 is slidably mounted on the mounting post 8, and an elastic element 10 connects the retaining ball 9 to the mounting post 8. Two limit grooves 11 are formed inside the protective shell 1, with an included angle of 90 degrees between them. The retaining ball 9 is engaged in adjacent limit grooves 11.

[0022] See Figures 1-4 As shown, the corners of the protective shell 1 are rounded.

[0023] When using this device, first rotate the limiting adjustment block 7 on the mounting post 8 by 90 degrees. As the mounting post 8 rotates, it causes the locking ball 9 to engage in the left limiting groove 11. During the movement, the elastic element 10 deforms. Then, insert the first interface 4 and the second interface 5 at both ends of the data cable 3 into the left and right protective cavities 101 respectively. Subsequently, by reversing the limiting adjustment block 7 by 90 degrees, the mounting post 8 causes the locking ball 9 to engage in the upper limiting groove 11. The elastic element 10 deforms accordingly, thus making the limiting adjustment block 7 horizontal. This locks the data cable 3 in the groove of the limiting adjustment block 7, thereby limiting the data cable 3 and preventing the two interfaces of the data cable 3 from detaching from the protective shell 1, ensuring the safety of the interfaces. When it is necessary to remove the data cable 3, simply rotate the limiting adjustment block 7 again to release the limiting fixation.

[0024] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figures 2-4 As shown, it also includes a first magnet 2 and a second magnet 6. The data cable 3 is provided with a second magnet 6 at both ends. The first magnet 2 is provided in the protective cavity 101. The first magnet 2 attracts the adjacent second magnet 6.

[0025] See Figure 3 As shown, an annular groove 16 is formed on the protective cavity 101, and the first magnet 2 is embedded in the adjacent annular groove 16 to prevent the first magnet 2 from detaching from the protective cavity 101.

[0026] When the first interface 4 and the second interface 5 are inserted into the left and right protective cavities 101 respectively, the first magnet 2 in the protective cavity 101 attracts the second magnet 6 at the end of the data cable 3, so that the interface is firmly embedded in the protective cavity 101, preventing the interface from falling off or making poor contact, and at the same time making it easy to use with one hand quickly.

[0027] See Figures 1-4 As shown, it also includes a mounting base 12, a mounting rod 13, a latch 14, and a fixing plate 15. Two mounting bases 12 are provided on the rear side of the protective shell 1 by welding. The two mounting bases 12 are connected by bolts and a mounting rod 13 is provided. A latch 14 is fastened on the mounting rod 13, and a fixing plate 15 is rotatably provided on the latch 14.

[0028] See Figures 1-4 As shown, the fixing sheet 15 is T-shaped. By placing it on the phone case and passing it through the charging port, and then putting the phone into the phone case, the phone and the phone case are fixed together with the fixing sheet 15.

[0029] When the data cable 3 needs to be carried, the mounting base 12 and the mounting rod 13 form a lanyard connection point. The buckle 14 can rotate around the mounting rod 13. The T-shaped fixing piece 15 is inserted into the charging port on the phone case and then locked by the phone and the phone case to prevent the data cable 3 from being pulled off during use, and at the same time, it is easy to hang and carry.
