Definitions
- the invention relates to a device for securing a connection of a connector end piece with a complementary connector receiver of a mobile device.
- the mobile device can be a professional digital camera, a walkman or any other easily movable device for which connection security is necessary or desired.
- a first problem stems from the fact that the size of the digital photo files that are produced by such a mobile device, during a fashion or advertising shooting session, for example, is such that it is not not possible to save them all in the internal memory of the digital camera.
- the user is obliged to transfer them directly and in real time to a computer located away from the shooting space and connected to the digital camera by a data transfer cable, by example a USB cable (for the English acronym of "Universal Serial Bus").
- a second problem comes from the fact either that the photographer does not prefer to use a memory card or/and to be able to view the photos taken immediately on a remote computer comprising image capture software as well as a display screen much larger in size than the integrated one of the digital camera and directly connected to the latter via a data transfer cable, such as a USB cable.
- a data transfer cable such as a USB cable.
- This allows not only to see the photos acquired immediately, but also to carry out a classification, an export, as well as retouching, including colorimetry and curves. It is therefore easy to have very quick access to the images on the remote computer, without having to take the memory card out of the digital camera, then put it in a suitable card reader to access said images. This allows a certain comfort in the unfolding of the shots and a certain fluidity in the procedure.
- An object of the invention is therefore to provide such a connection device which does not have the aforementioned drawbacks and which makes it possible to ensure a reliable and durable connection over time while being very simple to use.

- the security device according to the invention has at least one of the following technical characteristics:
- One of the first and second elements comprises a groove for receiving all or part of the other of the first and second elements
- the other of the first and second elements comprises a projection of complementary shape to a shape of the receiving groove
- the secure assembly means include a locking pin
- the locking pin is arranged so as to pass through the receiving groove
- the locking pin is arranged so as to pass through the projection of complementary shape.
- connection cable comprising a connector endpiece comprising the second element of the security device having at least one of the preceding technical characteristics positioned on the connector endpiece.
- connection cable according to the invention has at least one of the following technical characteristics:
- the second element forms the connector end piece, coming from material with this one.
- a secure connection kit comprising a cable comprising a connector end piece, as well as the securing device having at least one of the preceding technical characteristics, the second element being mounted on the connector end.
