Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of data cable technology, and in particular to a novel data cable. Background Technology
[0002] Existing data cables, with their charging and data transfer functions, are an essential accessory for mobile devices. Whether for work, study, or daily life, they are usually carried around. However, data cables are typically long and thin, requiring some form of storage, such as coiling them for stability. Since data cables are often slippery, this requires a sufficient number of coils to achieve a stable shape for easy carrying. While this method is effective, prolonged use can lead to excessive bending between the connector and the cable, potentially causing breakage. Furthermore, existing data cables are often monotonous and do not meet people's demands for personalization and aesthetics. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a new type of data cable that can improve the aesthetics and convenience of data storage.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides a data cable, which includes a cable body and a core wire inside the cable body, as well as a first connector and a second connector that form an electrical connection with the core wire. A cable sleeve is provided on the cable body, and the cable sleeve forms wrinkles on the surface of the cable body.
[0005] In a preferred embodiment, the folds are distributed along the length of the line surface.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment, the length of the thread sleeve is greater than the length of the thread body, which facilitates the formation of more wrinkles on the surface of the thread body after it passes through the thread body.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, the length of the thread sleeve is 1.2-2.0 times the length of the thread body, which facilitates threading through the thread body and allows for better wrinkle formation on the thread body surface.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the thread sleeve is provided with a through hole that is larger than the thread body, which facilitates the thread body to pass through and allows for better wrinkle formation on the thread body surface.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the thread sleeve is made of a flexible material, which allows for better folding.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the sleeve is made of fabric.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the fabric surface is patterned to facilitate the formation of folds with different visual effects.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the two ends of the sleeve are respectively provided with fixing sleeves to fix the sleeve to the cable body.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the folds are evenly distributed on the surface of the line.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the first connector and the second connector are each provided with a connector housing, which covers the retaining sleeve.
[0015] The fixing sleeve includes a first fixing part and a second fixing part, wherein the first fixing part is fitted onto the end of the fixing sleeve on the surface of the wire body, and the second fixing part is fitted onto the core wire, and the fixing hole on the second fixing part is smaller than the fixing hole on the first fixing part.
[0016] This utility model discloses a data cable, comprising a cable body and a core wire within the cable body, as well as a first connector and a second connector electrically connected to the core wire. A sleeve is fitted onto the cable body, and the sleeve has wrinkles formed on its surface. Because the sleeve has wrinkles on its surface, different patterns can be created to form unique visual effects for the data cable. Furthermore, the wrinkled sleeve provides greater friction during coiling and storage, making it easier to store and preventing the cable from easily becoming loose when stored with only the cable body inside. In addition, it provides added protection for the cable body. Attached Figure Description

[0040] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the preferred embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model provides an embodiment of a laptop computer casing.
[0042] The data cable includes a cable body 5 and a core wire inside the cable body 5, as well as a first connector 1 and a second connector 2 that form an electrical connection with the core wire. A cable sleeve 6 is fitted on the cable body 5, and the cable sleeve 6 has wrinkles 61 formed on the surface of the cable body.
[0043] Specifically, the first connector 1 is any one of TYPE-C, Mini USB, or Lightning, and the second connector 2 is any one of TYPE-C, Mini USB, or Lightning. The first connector 1 and the second connector 2 can be the same or different. The first connector 1 has a first connector head that forms an electrical connection with one end of the core wire and a first housing 3 disposed on the first connector head; the second connector 2 has a second connector head that forms an electrical connection with the other end of the core wire and a second housing 4 disposed on the second connector head. The pleats 61 are distributed along the length direction of the wire surface. The pleats 61 can be regular or irregular in structure. The wire sleeve 6 is made of a flexible material, such as fabric. The wire sleeve 6 has a through hole (not shown in the figure) in the length direction. The through hole is larger than the diameter of the wire body 5 to facilitate the fitting of the wire sleeve 6 onto the wire body 5. The size of the through hole affects the final pleat 61 structure. To form the pleats 61, the length of the sleeve 6 should be greater than the length of the cable body 5. Ideally, the length of the sleeve 6 should be 1.2-2.0 times the length of the cable body 5. Too long a sleeve will affect the fluffiness of the pleats 61, while too short a sleeve will prevent the formation of evenly distributed pleats 61. If necessary, when the sleeve 6 is made of fabric, its surface may have a pattern. This allows for different visual effects when forming the pleats 61, ensuring that each data cable has a unique aesthetic appeal.
[0044] To improve manufacturing efficiency, the cable sleeve 6 is provided with fixing sleeves 8 at both ends to secure the cable sleeve 6 to the cable body 5. This facilitates subsequent manufacturing without affecting the process. After the first housing 3 and the second housing 4 are formed, the cable sleeve 6 can be better secured, preventing the cable sleeve 6 from separating from the connector during use, which would expose part of the cable body and affect the aesthetics.
[0045] As needed, each of the two fixing sleeves 8 is also fitted with an elastic sleeve 7. One end of the elastic sleeve 7 extends into the first housing 3 and the second housing 4. The elastic sleeve 7 has a lower hardness than the first housing 3 and the second housing 4, and is smaller than the thread 5. This prevents creases from forming at the connection between the thread 5 and the first housing 3 and the second housing 4 during use, which could lead to breakage of the thread 5. The first housing 3 and the second housing 4 cover one end of the fixing sleeve 8 or the elastic sleeve 7.
[0046] Because the cable body 5 is fitted with a pleated sleeve 6, different patterns can be created on the sleeve 6 to form a unique visual effect for the data cable. The pleated sleeve 6 provides greater friction on its fluffy surface when coiled for storage, making it easier to store and preventing the cable from becoming loose when stored alone. In addition, the fluffy pleated structure formed by the sleeve 6 on the surface of the cable body 5 increases the protection of the cable body 5 and the toughness of the connection between the connector and the cable body 5, reducing the risk of the cable breaking from the connector. like Figure 3-15 The image shows an embodiment of a data cable manufacturing method.
[0047] The manufacturing method of this data cable includes, In the wire cutting step S11, the data cable body 5 with the core wire 52 is cut to the required length, such as... Figure 3 As shown; In step S12, a thread sleeve 6, longer than the thread body 5, is slipped over the thread body 5, and both ends of the thread sleeve are fixed to the thread body 5, creating pleats 61 on the thread sleeve 6 on the thread body 5. This ensures that both ends of the thread sleeve 6 are connected to the pre-reserved portion of the thread body 51 at the end of the thread body 5. Figure 8-11 As shown; In step S13, the reserved portion of wire 51 at the end of wire 5 is removed, exposing the core wire 52, which facilitates subsequent stripping of the core wire insulation. In the core wire stripping step S14, the exposed core wires 52 are stripped to expose the conductive wires, which facilitates soldering the conductive wires to the first connector A and the second connector 2. Figure 12 As shown; In welding step S15, the exposed conductive wires are sequentially welded to the solder joints corresponding to the first connector and the second connector to form an electrical circuit. In connector forming step S16, the core wires with the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 soldered at both ends are placed in the mold cavity. A first housing 3 and a second housing 4 are formed on the surfaces of the first connector 1, the second connector 2, and the core wires 52. The first housing 3 and the second housing 4 respectively cover the ends of the wire sleeve 6. Figure 13-14 As shown.
[0048] Specifically, before performing the thread-sleeving step S12, a thread-sleeving manufacturing step may be included. This thread-sleeving manufacturing step includes taking an appropriate length of fabric and cutting it into strips 6A, then sewing them along the length of the strips 6A to close the width direction and form a preliminary thread-sleeving with a through hole in the length direction. The preliminary thread-sleeving is then folded over along the length direction, concealing the sewn edge 6B within the through hole, making the surface more aesthetically pleasing. Figure 4-7 As shown.
[0049] The step S11 of attaching the thread sleeve further includes passing one end of the thread body 5 through the thread sleeve 6 and fixing it to the thread body 5, then passing the other end of the thread body 5 through the other end of the thread sleeve 6 and fixing that end of the thread sleeve 6 to the other end of the thread 5. Figure 10 and 11 As shown, moving the cable sleeve 6 towards one fixed end allows it to be secured to one end of the cable body 5 via the fixing sleeve 8. Since the cable sleeve 6 is made of a flexible material, such as fabric, it has a through hole (not shown in the attached diagram) along its length. This through hole is larger than the diameter of the cable body 5, facilitating the fitting of the cable sleeve 6 onto the cable body 5. The size of this through hole affects the final pleat 61 structure. To form the pleats 61, the length of the cable sleeve 6 should be greater than the length of the cable body 5. Ideally, the length of the cable sleeve 6 should be 1.2-2.0 times the length of the cable body 5. Too long a length will affect the fluffiness of the pleats 61, while too short a length will prevent the formation of evenly distributed pleats 61. If necessary, when the cable sleeve 6 is made of fabric, its surface may have a pattern, allowing for different visual effects when forming the pleats 61, ensuring each data cable has a unique aesthetic appeal.
[0050] To increase the toughness of the connection between the first connector 1 and the second connector 2 and the wire body, and to prevent breakage during use, elastic sleeves 7 can be fitted onto the fixing sleeves 8 before welding. This allows the first housing 3 and the second housing 4 to fix the elastic sleeves 7 and the fixing sleeves 8 onto the wire body 5, respectively, after subsequent injection molding and other steps to form the desired shape. Figure 13-15 The data cable shown can increase the strength of the cable connection and its flexibility.
[0051] As needed, after the cutting step, the two ends of the cut thread 5 are subjected to thread removal and core stripping steps respectively. This may increase the difficulty of putting on the thread sleeve, so a specific tool, such as a rigid threading tube, can be used for threading. The specific steps are as follows: after passing the thread through the threading tube, the threading tube is passed through the through hole on the thread sleeve. One end of the thread is taken out from one end of the threading tube and fixed to the thread sleeve. Then, the threading tube is pulled out, and the other end of the thread is taken out and fixed to the other end of the thread.
[0052] Because the cable body 5 is fitted with a pleated sleeve 6, different patterns can be created on the sleeve 6 to form a unique visual effect for the data cable. The pleated sleeve 6 provides greater friction on its fluffy surface when coiled for storage, making it easier to store and preventing the cable from becoming loose when stored alone. In addition, the fluffy pleated structure formed by the sleeve 6 on the surface of the cable body 5 increases the protection of the cable body 5 and the toughness of the connection between the connector and the cable body 5, reducing the risk of the cable breaking from the connector. The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
