Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of electronic technology, and in particular to a plug device. Background Technology

[0002] Mobile phones and other electronic devices are widely used in people's daily lives. Users often need to carry charging plugs and data cables when traveling, and organizing them separately can be quite inconvenient.

[0003] In related technologies, to make it easier to carry the charging plug and data cable, the charging plug and data cable are designed as a single unit, and the data cable can be stored in the charging plug's housing. However, the length of the data cable is limited by the volume of the charging plug's housing, making it impossible to accommodate longer data cables, which affects the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present disclosure provides a plug device that can accommodate data cables of greater length.

[0005] Specifically, the following technical solutions are included: This disclosure provides a plug device including a housing, a data cable, and prongs. The prongs are connected to the outer wall of the housing. A receiving cavity is provided inside the housing. One end of the data cable is located inside the receiving cavity and connected to the housing. The other end of the data cable is located outside the receiving cavity and is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing. The data cable includes a first segment and a second segment. The first segment can be completely housed within the receiving cavity, while the second segment is located outside the receiving cavity.

[0006] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the plug device further includes a connecting structure connected to the outer wall of the housing, and the other end of the data cable is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing via the connecting structure. After the other end of the data cable is connected to the connecting structure, the interface of one end of the data cable can be fixed to the outer wall of the housing, preventing the data cable from scattering outside the housing due to insufficient space inside the cavity.

[0007] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the connection structure includes a magnet fixed to the outer wall of the housing, and the other end of the data cable is magnetically connected to the magnet. The magnet allows for convenient connection of one end of the data cable, preventing the end of the data cable from being excessively exposed outside the housing cavity, and facilitating the carrying of the plug device.

[0008] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the housing is provided with an opening that communicates with the receiving cavity, and the opening and the magnet are located on the same outer wall of the housing. Because the magnet and the opening are located on the same outer wall of the housing, when one end of the data cable is magnetically connected to the magnet, a second segment of the data cable can form a ring structure to facilitate carrying the plug device through this ring structure.

[0009] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the data cable further includes a connector connected to the second wire segment and magnetically connected to the magnet. When the data cable is needed, the connector can be directly removed from the magnet, improving the convenience of the plug device.

[0010] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the connection structure includes a limiting portion that is detachably connected to one end of the data cable. The limiting portion further secures the data cable to the outer wall of the housing, preventing the end of the data cable from separating from the housing when unnecessary.

[0011] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the limiting portion includes a first pressure rod and a second pressure rod disposed opposite to each other. One end of the first pressure rod is connected to the outer wall of the housing, and the other end of the first pressure rod is bent towards the second pressure rod. One end of the second pressure rod is connected to the outer wall of the housing, and the other end of the second pressure rod is bent towards the first pressure rod. The first and second pressure rods cooperate to fix the end of the data cable, thereby firmly connecting the end of the data cable to the outer wall of the housing. When the user pulls the loop formed by the second line segment, the end of the data cable will not separate from the housing.

[0012] In some embodiments of this disclosure, a reinforcing portion is provided at the other end of the data cable, the reinforcing portion being clamped between the first and second pressure rods and the outer wall of the housing. The reinforcing portion has high strength and can withstand the compression of the first and second pressure rods without damaging the data cable.

[0013] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the first line segment is wound around one end of the data cable within the receiving cavity. Wounding the first line segment within the receiving cavity reduces the space required to accommodate it, facilitates its removal from the cavity, and increases user convenience.

[0014] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the prongs are hinged to the outer wall of the housing. The prongs can rotate relative to the housing, which reduces the overall size of the plug device and facilitates storage.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the technical solutions provided in this disclosure include at least the following: In the plug device provided in this embodiment, the receiving cavity inside the housing is used to accommodate the first segment of the data cable, while the second segment of the data cable is located outside the housing. The data cable does not need to be completely retracted into the receiving cavity, so the length of the data cable is not limited by the internal volume of the receiving cavity. This allows for the provision of longer data cables to meet user needs and improve the user experience. Furthermore, one end of the data cable is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing, which is used to fix the end of the data cable, while the other end of the data cable is located inside the receiving cavity. This structure allows for more convenient storage of the data cable. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0021] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a plug device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a plug device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 1-2 As shown, the plug device provided in this embodiment includes a housing 1, a data cable 2, and pins 3. The pins 3 are connected to the outer wall of the housing 1. A receiving cavity 101 is provided inside the housing 1. One end of the data cable 2 is located inside the receiving cavity 101 and connected to the housing 1. The other end of the data cable 2 is located outside the receiving cavity 101 and is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing 1. The data cable 2 includes a first segment 201 and a second segment 202. The first segment 201 can be completely housed inside the receiving cavity 101, and the second segment 202 is located outside the receiving cavity 101.

[0022] In the plug device provided in this embodiment, the receiving cavity 101 inside the housing 1 is used to accommodate the first segment 201 of the data cable 2, while the second segment 202 of the data cable 2 is located outside the housing 1. The data cable 2 does not need to be completely retracted into the receiving cavity 101, so the length of the data cable 1 is not limited by the internal volume of the receiving cavity 101, thereby providing a longer data cable 2, which is beneficial to improving the user experience. Moreover, one end of the data cable 2 is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing 1, and the outer wall of the housing 1 is used to fix the end of the data cable 2, while the other end of the data cable 2 is located inside the receiving cavity. This structure can more conveniently store the data cable 2.

[0023] To make the technical solutions and advantages of this disclosure clearer, the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] See Figure 1The plug device provided in this embodiment includes a housing 1, a data cable 2, and pins 3. Pins 3 are connected to the outer wall of the housing 1. A receiving cavity 101 is provided inside the housing 1. One end of the data cable 2 is located inside the receiving cavity 101 and connected to the housing 1, and is electrically connected to the pins 3. The other end of the data cable 2 is located outside the receiving cavity 101. Pins 3 are used for electrical connection to an external socket. The end of the data cable 2 located outside the receiving cavity 101 is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing 1, thereby fixing the end of the data cable 2 for easy storage. The data cable 2 includes a first segment 201 and a second segment 202. The first segment 201 can be completely stored inside the receiving cavity 101, and the second segment 202 is located outside the receiving cavity 101. The length of the first segment 201 is adapted to the volume of the receiving cavity 101, while the length of the second segment 202 is not limited by the receiving cavity 101. The length of the second segment 202 is the length that the data cable 2 can be extended to. Therefore, the plug device provided in this embodiment has a longer data cable 2, which can meet the user's needs and improve the user experience.

[0025] In some embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 1 As shown, the plug device also includes a connecting structure 100, which is connected to the outer wall of the housing 1. The other end of the data cable 2 is detachably connected to the outer wall of the housing 1 through the connecting structure 100. After the other end of the data cable 2 is connected to the connecting structure 100, the interface of one end of the data cable 2 can be fixed to the outer wall of the housing 1, preventing the data cable 2 from falling outside the housing 1 due to insufficient space inside the receiving cavity 101.

[0026] Optionally, see Figure 1 The connection structure 100 includes a magnet 105, which is fixed to the outer wall of the housing 1. The other end of the data cable 2 is magnetically connected to the magnet 105. The magnet 105 allows for easy connection of one end of the data cable 2, preventing the end of the data cable 2 from being exposed outside the housing cavity 101 due to excessive length, and facilitating the carrying of the plug device.

[0027] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a plug device provided for an embodiment of this disclosure. See also, in some embodiments of this disclosure, […]. Figure 1 and 3 The housing 1 has an opening 102 that communicates with the receiving cavity 101. The opening 102 and the magnet 105 are located on the same outer wall of the housing 1. The data cable 2 extends through the opening 102, which is larger than the width and thickness of the data cable 2, allowing the data cable 2 to pass smoothly through the receiving cavity 101. Furthermore, since the magnet 105 and the opening 102 are located on the same outer wall of the housing 1, when one end of the data cable 2 is magnetically connected to the magnet 105, the second segment 202 of the data cable 2 can form a ring structure, facilitating the carrying of the plug device through this ring structure.

[0028] In some embodiments of this disclosure, the data cable 2 further includes a connector 203, which is connected to the second line segment 202 and magnetically connected to the magnet 105. Exemplarily, the connector 203 is a Type-C connector, a Lightning connector, etc. The connector 203 is made of a magnetic material and can be attracted by the magnet 105. For example, an iron sheet may be provided inside the connector 203, and the iron sheet is integrally formed with the connector 203. When the data cable 2 is needed, the connector 203 can be directly removed from the magnet 105, which improves the convenience of the plug device.

[0029] In some embodiments of this disclosure, see Figure 1 The connection structure 100 includes a limiting part 103, which is detachably connected to one end of the data cable 2. The limiting part 103 is used to further fix the data cable 2 to the outer wall of the housing 1, preventing the end of the data cable 2 from separating from the housing 1 when not necessary.

[0030] It should be noted that the connection structure 100 includes a limiting part 103 and / or a magnet 105. Specifically, the sidewall of the connector 203 is magnetically connected to the magnet 105, and the limiting part 103 clamps one end of the connector 203 near the second line segment 202.

[0031] Optionally, see Figure 1 The limiting part 103 includes a first pressure rod 1031 and a second pressure rod 1032 disposed opposite to each other. One end of the first pressure rod 1031 is connected to the outer wall of the housing 1, and the other end of the first pressure rod 1031 is bent towards the second pressure rod 1032. One end of the second pressure rod 1032 is connected to the outer wall of the housing 1, and the other end of the second pressure rod 1032 is bent towards the first pressure rod 1031. The first pressure rod 1031 and the second pressure rod 1032 can be made of plastic or metal, and the first pressure rod 1031 and the second pressure rod 1032 can undergo elastic deformation. The first pressure rod 1031 and the second pressure rod 1032 can work together to fix the end of the data cable 2, thereby firmly connecting the end of the data cable 2 to the outer wall of the housing 1. When the user pulls the ring formed by the second line segment 202, the end of the data cable 2 will not separate from the housing 1.

[0032] In some embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 1As shown, a reinforcing part 204 is provided at the other end of the data cable 2. The reinforcing part 204 is clamped between the first pressure rod 1031 and the second pressure rod 1032 and the outer wall of the housing 1. The reinforcing part 204 is located at the connection between the second line segment 202 and the connector 203, and is used to increase the strength of the connection between the second line segment 202 and the connector 203, preventing the connection between the first line segment 201 and the connector 203 from breaking when the first line segment 201 is bent relative to the connector 203. Because the reinforcing part 204 has high strength, it can withstand the compression of the first pressure rod 1031 and the second pressure rod 1032 without damaging the data cable 2.

[0033] It should be noted that the magnet 105, the opening 102 and the limiting part 103 are all located on the same outer side wall of the housing 1, and the side wall where the magnet 105, the opening 102 and the limiting part 103 are located is opposite to the side wall where the pin 3 is located.

[0034] In some embodiments of this disclosure, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first line segment 201 is wound around one end of the data line 2 inside the receiving cavity 101. The first line segment 201 is wound and stored in the receiving cavity 101, which can reduce the space required to accommodate the first line segment 201, and make it easier to pull the first line segment 201 out of the receiving cavity 101, thereby increasing the convenience of use for the user.

[0035] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the connecting structure 100 also includes a receiving groove 106, in which the magnet 105 is fixed. The receiving groove 106 is used to receive the magnet 105, so that the magnet 105 and the outer wall of the housing 1 form a flat surface.

[0036] In some embodiments of this disclosure, see Figure 3 No magnet 105 is provided in the receiving groove 106. The opposite side walls of the receiving groove 106 are respectively provided with elastic protrusions 107. The connector 203 can be snapped into the receiving groove 106 by the elastic protrusions 107, thereby fixing the end of the data cable 2 located outside the housing 1.

[0037] In another embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the connection structure 100 also includes an elastic sleeve 108, which is located in the receiving groove 106. The elastic sleeve 108 can surround the connector 203 to press and fix the connector 203 inside the receiving groove 106.

[0038] Optionally, see Figure 1 The outer wall of the housing 1 is provided with a first interface 104, which is electrically connected to the pin 3. The first interface 104 is used to electrically connect to an external connector, thereby expanding the number of devices that the plug device can connect to.

[0039] Optionally, a second interface (not shown in the figure) may be provided inside the receiving cavity 101, which is detachably electrically connected to the data cable 2. If the data cable 2 is damaged, the data cable 2 can be separated from the housing 1 to facilitate replacement with a new data cable 2.

[0040] In some embodiments of this disclosure, see Figure 5 The plug pin 3 is hinged to the outer wall of the housing 1. The plug pin 3 can rotate relative to the housing 1, thereby switching between a vertical and a horizontal position to reduce the overall size of the plug device and facilitate storage. The user's arm can lift the annular second segment 202, making it easier to carry the plug device.
