When used with automatic cable reel 701, this product can not only be charged by connecting an external charging cable, but also can be charged by directly pulling out charging connector 702 when the charging cable is forgotten, making it more portable.
[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the main housing 1 of the flashlight is provided with buttons 12 and dust plugs 11 on both sides, which correspond to the switch 901 and the charging interface 902, respectively.
[0044] The switch 901 can be turned on and off by button 12. The dust plug 11 is used to protect the charging interface 902 from dust. The charging interface 902 can be used by removing the dust plug 11.
[0045] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom of the flashlight main housing 1 is provided with a tail cap 14, and a spring 15 is provided inside the tail cap 14, one end of which is connected to one end of the battery 13.
[0046] The tail cap 14 is interference-fitted with the main shell 1 of the flashlight, the main shell 1 of the flashlight is interference-fitted with the middle shell 2, and the middle shell 2 is interference-fitted with the lamp head 3, ensuring assembly stability.
[0047] In summary, the integrated automatic cord reel 701 allows for convenient and readily available charging, addressing the pain point of traditional flashlights requiring an additional charging cable. The charging connector 702 is concealed within the middle shell 2, allowing for easy connection to a power source simply by pulling it out. The charging cable sleeve 10 ensures the stability of the charging cable in its stored state and features an anti-drop design for added convenience. The product supports bidirectional charging, allowing for charging via an external charging cable or direct charging via the built-in cable, significantly improving portability in emergency situations. The integrated design seamlessly integrates the charging cable with the flashlight, preventing tangling and loss while maintaining a compact and stable overall structure, meeting both outdoor lighting and portable charging needs.
