Description
The present invention relates to a USB port lock device, and more particularly, to a USB port lock device that can lock and unlock the USB port in a physical method to prevent data leakage and virus penetration through the USB memory.
As the industry and technology developed, the spread of personal computers has been rapidly increasing. Most organizations such as companies and government offices handle personal computer (including notebook PC) related business, , Military facilities, and so on.
As the industry has been reorganized mainly by the use of computers, malicious codes or viruses have been infiltrated into the other computer, causing damage and frequent leakage of important information.
In view of this, various methods have been applied to prevent leakage of information and to prevent infiltration of viruses in information offices, companies, government institutions, and military facilities. Recently, with the development of memory devices, A third party can easily access a main computer to infiltrate a virus or to extract important information frequently due to the application of a general-purpose USB port.
That is, most of the computers currently on the collimation are provided with at least one USB port that can be universally connected, and anyone can easily connect to the desired computer by connecting a USB memory to the USB port.
Therefore, it is urgent to prevent USB memory from being infiltrated into the computer or to extract important information by easily connecting the USB memory to the computer.
The present invention was conceived in view of the above, and provides a USB port lock device that can physically block the USB port of a computer device to fundamentally prevent information leakage as well as virus penetration through the USB memory. There is a purpose.
In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a USB port locking device comprising: a frame-shaped outer frame corresponding to a USB port of an electronic device; an internal structure provided inside the outer frame and having a keyhole exposed forward; A locking member inserted and coupled to the USB port; And a release key unit inserted into the keyhole and having a latch key selectively latched or released so as to forcibly remove the locking member inserted into the USB port. A plurality of pairs of locking holes to which the locking pieces installed in the USB port are elastically coupled are formed to be spaced apart in the coupling and disengaging directions of the locking member.
Here, the outer frame is preferably provided with a locking piece protruding outward so as to elastically contact the inner wall of the USB port when inserted into the USB port.
It is preferable that the plurality of pairs of locking holes are formed on upper and lower surfaces of a length of the outer frame, and the locking pieces are provided on a side surface of the outer frame.
Further, the release key unit may include: a unit body having a housing portion capable of housing a plurality of locking members therein, the housing having a cover member for opening and closing the housing portion; A key holder rotatably installed on the unit body; A locking key installed to protrude from the tip of the keyhole and inserted into the keyhole of the locking member; A latch key provided at a front end of the locking jaw to protrude selectively to the side of the fixing key, the latch key preventing the locking jaw from interfering with the inside of the key hole while being inserted into the key hole; And a release button installed on the keyhole for selectively interrupting the latch key to release the hooking jaw from being caught in the keyhole.
In addition, the USB port locking device according to another aspect of the present invention for achieving the above object, a blocking member for blocking coupled to the housing, coupled to the USB port of the electronic device, the blocking member is the USB port A locking unit having a locking member which locks to prevent it from exiting from the inserted state and a locking member which is movably installed in the housing to move the locking member to the locking position according to the movement position; And a release key unit selectively coupled to and detached from the locking member to move the locking member moved to a position to lock the locking member to a release position allowing the locking member to move to a release position. It is characterized by.
Herein, an auxiliary blocking member having a connection portion through which the locking unit coupled to the USB port passes, and an external blocking portion which is connected to the connection portion and blocks another USB port adjacent to the USB port blocked by the locking unit from the outside .
The blocking member may have a quadrangular frame shape corresponding to the USB port, and may be integrally formed so that the locking member is partially cut and the locking member is elastically deformable.
In addition, the locking member may include: an outer frame installed to be reciprocatable within the blocking member and the housing, and having a plurality of pairs of locking holes in the moving direction; An inner structure installed inside the outer frame and having a keyhole to which the release key unit is coupled to a portion exposed to the outside of the housing; And an interference member installed inside the outer frame and interfering with the locking member when moved to protrude to the outside of the outer frame to be locked to the inner wall of the USB port.
In addition, the locking member may be provided with a locking protrusion that is interfered with a locking protrusion provided on the housing so as to protrude outwardly from the housing, and the locking member may be provided with a locking member, And a locking piece elastically coupled to the locking hole formed in the outer frame.
Further, the release key unit comprises: a unit main body; A key holder rotatably installed on the unit body; A locking key installed to protrude from the tip of the keyhole and inserted into the keyhole of the locking member; A latch key provided at a front end of the locking jaw to protrude selectively to the side of the fixing key, the latch key preventing the locking jaw from interfering with the inside of the key hole while being inserted into the key hole; And a release button installed on the keyhole for selectively interrupting the latch key to release the hooking jaw from being caught in the keyhole.
According to the USB port locking device of the present invention, since the USB port of the electronic device can be physically blocked, there is an advantage that it is possible to fundamentally prevent virus infiltration and leakage of important information by an external intruder.
In addition, a plurality of neighboring USB ports can be blocked at the same time, and a USB port to which a USB cable connected in advance is connected can be blocked and protected.
