Referring to fig. 1a to fig. 3b, an interface protection assembly for an electronic device with an electrical connection interface according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a main body 10, a slider 20. The electrical connection interface of the present embodiment may be used to electrically connect with an electrical connection header to enable power supply and/or data transmission.

The main body 10 is used for being mounted to an electronic device, and specifically, the main body 10 may be detachably connected or non-detachably connected with a housing of the electronic device, for example, the main body 10 is detachably connected with the housing of the electronic device by screws, snaps, or the like, or the main body 10 is integrally formed with the housing of the electronic device, or welded or bonded together. In this embodiment, the main body 10 may be a metal part as a whole, or a plastic part as a whole, or a part of the metal part, a part of the plastic part, or even another material, and this embodiment is not limited in particular.

The main body 10 has an opening 11, and in a mounted state of the main body 10 to the electronic apparatus, the opening 11 is opposite to an electrical connection interface (not shown in the figure), and the first surface a of the main body 10 faces the electronic apparatus.

The opening 11 of the main body 10 may be square, circular, trapezoidal, etc., and in this embodiment, to simplify the structure and reduce the design difficulty, it is preferable that the opening 11 is substantially square. By the opening 11 being opposite to the electrical connection interface, it is meant that an orthographic projection of the electrical connection interface in the direction of the opening 11 is located at the opening 11, so that a user can extend the electrical connection joint into the electrical connection interface through the opening 11 to establish electrical connection with the electrical connection interface, thereby enabling power supply and/or data transmission.

The main body 10 may have a first surface a and a second surface B, the first surface a and the second surface B may be disposed opposite to each other, and the first surface a may face the electronic device, and since the main body 10 is mounted on the electronic device, the second surface a correspondingly faces away from the electronic device and faces the outside. The first surface a may be a plane, or the first surface a may comprise one plane, a plurality of planes, an arc, etc. facing the electronic device.

The sliding piece 20 is slidably arranged at the opening hole 11, and the sliding piece 20 can slide between a closed position and an open position; when the slider 20 is in the open position, the slider 20 is at least partially hidden under the first surface a of the body 10 to enable the electrical connection interface to be exposed. In this embodiment, the sliding member 20 may be a card cover slidably disposed on the main body 10, but in other embodiments, the sliding member 20 may not be plate-shaped, and the utility model is not limited thereto. The sliding member 20 can slide along a predetermined direction, and a preset slide way for the sliding member 20 to slide is designed on the main body 10, and the sliding may be a through hole or a groove as long as guiding the sliding member 20 to slide is achieved.

The slider 20 is at least slidable between a closed position, by which it is understood that the slider 20 substantially closes the aperture 11, e.g., completely closes the aperture 11, or closes ninety percent of the area of the aperture 11, and an open position. It can be understood that when the sliding member 20 completely closes the opening 11, the protection effect on the electrical connection interface is the best, and external dust, moisture and the like can be completely blocked and cannot enter the electrical connection interface, thereby effectively improving the service life and the electrical connection reliability of the electrical connection interface. By open position is meant a position in which the slider 20 is slid to expose the electrical connection interface such that the electrical connection contacts can be extended through the openings 11 to the electrical connection interface to establish an electrical connection with the electrical connection interface. In the present embodiment, when the slider 20 is in the open position, the slider 20 is at least partially hidden under the first surface a of the main body 10, so that when the slider 20 is in the open position, the slider 20 is not completely exposed, thereby reducing the risk of the slider 20 being damaged due to exposure and improving the service life of the whole device.

The interface protection assembly provided by the embodiment of the utility model comprises a main body, wherein the main body is provided with an opening opposite to an electric connection interface, a sliding piece is slidably arranged at the opening, the sliding piece slides between a closed position and an open position so as to protect the electric connection interface at the closed position, and can slide to the open position when the electric connection interface needs to be exposed, and at least part of the sliding piece is hidden in the main body when the sliding piece is at the open position, so that the sliding piece is not completely exposed to the outside, the sliding piece is not easy to damage, the service life of the part is effectively prolonged, and the replacement and maintenance cost is reduced.

In some embodiments, the outer surface of the slider 20 may be substantially flush with the second surface B when the slider 20 is in the closed position. In particular, the outer surface of the slider 20 refers to the surface facing away from the electronic device, which is externally visible to the user. The second surface B of the present embodiment may be a surface of the main body 10 facing away from the electronic device, and the surface is preferably a flat surface to improve the appearance and flatness of the whole apparatus.

When the slider 20 is in the closed position, the outer surface of the slider 20 is substantially flush with the second surface B, which means that the height difference between the outer surface of the slider 20 and the second surface B in the height direction is zero, or the height difference between the outer surface of the slider 20 and the second surface B in the height direction is less than 5mm under the allowance of machining error. In this embodiment, when the sliding member 20 is in the closed position, the outer surface of the sliding member 20 may be substantially flush with the second surface B, that is, the sliding member 20 is coplanar with the main body 10, so that the whole device has a flat appearance, and the appearance is integrated, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance of the device.

In some embodiments, the slider 20 may have a first connection portion 21 and a second connection portion 22, the first connection portion 21 and the second connection portion 22 may have a preset distance L therebetween, the first connection portion 21 may be slidably connected with the main body 10, and the second connection portion 22 may be slidably connected with the main body 10.

In the present embodiment, preferably, the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 may be located at two opposite ends of the slider 20, respectively. Specifically, the first connection part 21 may be located at one end of the sliding direction of the main body 10, and the second connection part 22 may be located at the other end of the sliding direction of the main body 10. The first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are respectively provided at two opposite ends of the slider 20, so that the position of the slider 20 relative to the main body 10 can be reliably fixed after the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are relatively fixed with respect to the main body 10. Of course, in other embodiments, the first connection portion 21 and the second connection portion 22 may not be located at the end of the main body 10, for example, the first connection portion 21 is located at one end of the main body 10 and the second connection portion 22 is located at the middle of the main body 10, or the first connection portion 21 is located at the middle of the main body 10 and the second connection portion 22 is located at one end of the main body 10.

In the present embodiment, the sliding member 20 may have a square shape, and a direction toward the sliding direction on the sliding member 20 may be defined as a first direction, and a direction perpendicular to the first direction on the surface of the sliding member 20 may be defined as a second direction. The first connection portion 21 and the second connection portion 22 are arranged at an interval in the first direction and have a predetermined distance L. The first and

second connection parts

21 and 22 of the slider 20 may be convex cylindrical, axes of the convex cylindrical first and

second connection parts

21 and 22 may be parallel to a length direction of the slider 20, and the first and

second connection parts

21 and 22 may be parallel to each other. The outer surfaces of the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 which are convex columns are smooth, so that the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are smoothly contacted with the main body 10 in the sliding process, the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are not easy to block in the sliding process, and the sliding of the sliding member 20 is smooth. Of course, it is not excluded that in other embodiments, the cross-section of the first connection portion 21 and the second connection portion 22 may have other shapes, for example, square, oval, regular hexagon, etc.

Further, the number of the first connecting portions 21 may be two, and the number of the second connecting portions 22 may also be two, the two first connecting portions 21 are symmetrically arranged at intervals on both sides of the sliding member 20 in the second direction, and the two second connecting portions 22 are symmetrically arranged at intervals on both sides of the sliding member 20 in the second direction. Since the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are provided on both sides of the slider 20 in the second direction. Thereby, the reliability and balance of the sliding of the slider 20 are improved, and the risk of the slider 20 being stuck during the sliding is reduced.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2a to 3b, the main body 10 has an avoiding position P, and the second connecting portion 22 can rotate to the avoiding position P relative to the first connecting portion 21; when the second connecting portion 22 is in the avoiding position P, the outer surface of the slider 20 is substantially flush with the second surface B. Specifically, when the second connecting portion 22 is rotated to the avoiding position P, the sliding member 20 is in the closed position, and the outer surface of the sliding member 20 is substantially flush with the second surface B. By the provision of the escape position P, a space is provided for the slider 20 to move flush with the second surface B of the body 10. Therefore, the outer surface of the sliding part 20 is basically flush with the second surface B when the sliding part 20 is in the closed position while ensuring that the sliding part 20 does not influence the normal sliding, so that the appearance flatness of the device is improved.

As shown in fig. 2a to 3b, the main body 10 may have a main slide S1 and a sub slide S2 thereon, the sub slide S2 is located above the main slide S1, the main slide S1 is connected to the sub slide S2, and the end of the sub slide S2 forms an escape position P. The first and second connecting

portions

21 and 22 can slide on the main slide S1 to move the slider 20 between the closed position and the open position. The second connecting portion 22 can rotate along the secondary slide path S2 to the avoidance position P with the first connecting portion 21 as the rotation center, so that the outer surface of the sliding member 20 is flush with the second surface B of the main body 10 when the sliding member 20 is in the closed position.

In some embodiments, the main slide S1 and the secondary slide S2 include through holes that open onto the main body 10. Referring to fig. 2a, the main body 10 may have a side wall X for connecting the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22, and when the first connecting portion 21 includes two and the second connecting portion 22 includes two, the main body 10 may have two opposite side walls X. The main runner S1 and the sub runner S2 may be through holes opened on the side wall X, and the main runner S1 communicates with the sub runner S2 so that the second connecting portion 22 can slide from the main runner S1 to the sub runner S2. Of course, in other embodiments, the main slide way S1 and the auxiliary slide way S2 may be slide ways disposed on the main body 10, and the utility model is not limited thereto.

Further, in order to prevent the first and

second connection parts

21 and 22 from being separated from the main body 10, the distal end of the first and/or

second connection parts

21 and 22 may have a stopper, and in this embodiment, as shown in fig. 2a, the first connection part 21 may include a sliding part 211 and a stopper 212, the stopper 212 may be located at the distal end of the first connection part 21, and the cross-sectional size of the stopper 212 may be greater than the width of the main slide S1, thereby preventing the first connection part 21 from being separated from the main body 10 from the main slide S1. Since the second connecting portion 22 and the first connecting portion 21 are both disposed on the sliding member 20, the second connecting portion 22 will not be separated from the main body 10 as long as the first connecting portion 21 is limited, thereby improving the reliability of the entire device.

In the present embodiment, when the first and second connecting

portions

21 and 22 are both located at the main slide S1, the slider 20 is inclined at a preset angle with respect to the second surface B, and the slider 20 can slide on the main slide S1 in a posture of the preset angle to the open position. To enable the slider 20 to slide to be hidden under the first surface a of the main body 10 in the closed position, the main slide S1 may be obliquely disposed with respect to the second surface B of the main body 10, whereby the slider 20 may be gradually moved obliquely downward to be hidden under the first surface a of the main body 10 with the slider 20 in the open position in a state where both the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 of the slider 20 are located at the main slide S1 to slide.

Due to the inclined arrangement of the main slideway S1 and the arrangement of the avoidance position P of the auxiliary slideway S2, the sliding member 20 can be ensured to be hidden under the first surface a of the main body 10, and simultaneously, the outer surface of the sliding member 20 can be ensured to be flush with the second surface B of the main body 10 when the sliding member 20 slides to the closed position.

With further reference to fig. 2a, the main runner S1 of the present invention includes a first end S11 and a second end S12, and the first connecting portion 21 of the slider 20 is located at the first end S11 of the main runner S1 when the slider 20 is in the closed position. The first connecting portion 21 is located at the first end S11 when the slider 20 is in the closed position, the length and position of the main slide way S1 are arranged reasonably, and when the slider 20 is in the closed position, the first connecting portion 21 can abut against the first end S11, so that the slider 20 is restrained in the closed position.

In some embodiments, the interface protection assembly may further include an elastic member 30, one end of the elastic member 30 may be connected with the main body 10, and the other end of the elastic member 30 may be connected with the first connection portion 21 of the slider 20. Specifically, the elastic member 30 of this embodiment may be an axial extension spring, the main body 10 may have a spring hanging groove 12 for the connection of the axial extension spring, one end of the axial extension spring may be hung in the spring hanging groove 12, and the other end of the axial extension spring may be fixed to the outer wall of the first connecting portion 21, specifically, the outer wall of the first connecting portion 21 may have an annular groove, and the other end of the axial extension spring may be clamped into the annular groove, so that the axial extension spring is connected. Of course, in other embodiments, the two ends of the axial extension spring may be fixed to the main body 10 and the first connecting portion 21 non-detachably. In other embodiments, the elastic member 30 may not be limited to an axially extending spring, and may be a rubber strip, a rubber rope, or the like, as long as it has an elastic extending function.

As shown in fig. 3a, when the slider 20 is in the closed position, the elastic member 30 is in an elastically deformed state (the elastic member 30 is in a stretched state in the drawing); during the sliding of the slider 20 from the closed position to the open position, the elastic member 30 gradually recovers its deformation, or the amount of deformation of the elastic member 30 gradually decreases.

Through the arrangement of the elastic element 30, the sliding speed of the sliding element 20 can be increased, and the sliding element 20 can open the electrical connection interface by only one-step operation of a user in the process of switching from the closed position to the open position. Specifically, the user only needs to press the sliding member 20 to separate the second connecting portion 22 from the secondary slide way S2, so that the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are both located on the main slide way S1, at this time, the sliding member 20 is pulled down by the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 30, and the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 slide along the first end S11 away from the main slide way S1 until the elastic member 30 restores to deform. Alternatively, the main slide S1 may have a limiting portion for limiting the position of the first connecting portion 21, and after the first connecting portion 21 reaches the limiting portion, the elastic member 30 may not pull the sliding member 20 any more, and at this time, the elastic member 30 may be in a state of a small deformation amount, so that the sliding member 20 is stabilized at the opening position.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 2a, the end of the secondary slide way S2 can be bent away from the first end S11 to form an escape position P. The end of the secondary slide S2 forms an escape position P that is bent away from the first end S11 such that the second connector 22 is restrained at the end away from the first end S11 when the slider 20 is in the closed position. Since the second connecting portion 22 needs to rotate around the first connecting portion 21, the sub-slide S2 provides a rotating space, and since the sliding member 20 is connected to the elastic member 30, the end of the sub-slide S2 is bent away from the first end S11, thereby providing both a sliding space for the second connecting portion 22 to slide in and out of the sub-slide S2 and a rebound space for the second connecting portion 22 under the action of the elastic member 30.

In addition, further, the wall surface of the avoiding position P may be a cambered surface. And the wall surface of the escape position P may be attached to the outer surface of the second connection portion 22, so that the second connection portion 22 can be stably maintained at the escape position P. In addition, the avoidance position P is a curved surface, so that the transition at the connection between the avoidance position P and the secondary slide way S2 is smooth, thereby improving the smoothness of the sliding of the second connection part 22 on the secondary slide way S2.

In a specific embodiment, the portion of the sub-ramp S2, other than the escape position P, that connects to the main ramp S1 may be curved in a direction toward the first end S11 of the main ramp S1 so that the second connecting portion 22 can smoothly slide into the sub-ramp S2, and the curvature of the portion may be determined by the distance from the second connecting portion 22 to the first end S11, and the curvature may be small because the sub-ramp S2 is short and the radius of rotation of the second connecting portion 22 is large. Of course, in other embodiments, the portion of the sub-chute S2 other than the escape position P, which is connected to the main chute S1, may be straight, and the present invention is not particularly limited.

As shown in fig. 2 a-3 b, the main runner S1 may be a linear runner; the line connecting the two ends of the elastic member 30 is parallel to the main slide way S1, or the line connecting the two ends of the elastic member 30 is lower than the main slide way S1. In this way, the pulling force applied to the sliding member 20 by the elastic member 30 is in a direction not higher than the extending direction of the main slide S1. Since the sub-chute S2 is located above the main chute S1, when the second connecting portion 22 is located at the avoidance position P of the sub-chute S2, the connecting line between the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 is located above the main chute S1, and in this embodiment, the connecting line between the two ends of the elastic member 30 is designed to be lower than the main chute S1. In this way, when the sliding member 20 is in the closed position, under the elastic restoring force of the elastic member 30, the second connecting portion 22 tends to be driven to rotate away from the main sliding way S1 and the auxiliary sliding way S2 (as shown by the dotted arc arrow of the second connecting portion 22 in fig. 3 a), so that the second connecting portion 22 is tightly abutted against the avoiding position P. If it is necessary to detach the second connecting portion 22 from the sub-chute S2, a user is required to apply a pressing force to the slider 20, and when the pressing force can overcome the urging force of the elastic member 30, the second connecting portion 22 is detached from the sub-chute S2. In this way, even if the electronic device falls, the second connection portion 22 is maintained at the avoidance position P under the action of the elastic member 30, so that the interface protection component is maintained in the closed state, the electrical connection interface is reliably shielded and protected, and the reliability is good.

Of course, it can be understood that, when a person skilled in the art performs a specific design, the elastic modulus of the elastic member 30 can be specifically designed, for example, for a spring, the parameters such as the wire diameter, the effective number of turns, the diameter size, and the like can be appropriately designed to achieve a desired elastic modulus, so as to ensure that the second connection portion 22 can be stably maintained at the avoidance position P, and achieve a desired fall protection effect.
