The power is directly supplied to the computer device 34.

除此之外,由於軸對稱端子40(即該柱形端子)為柱形結構且連接插座42之筒狀腔室46為筒形結構,故當第二連接器38之軸對稱端子40 (即該柱形端子)插接於連接插座42之筒狀腔室46內時,第二連接器38便可沿軸對稱端子40之對稱軸401相對連接插座42轉動。換句話說,第二連接器38可藉由軸對稱端子40之柱形的結構設計以及筒狀腔室46之筒形的結構設計而相對連接插座42轉動。因此,連接於第二連接器38之線纜32便可藉由第二連接器38相對連接插座42轉動,進而改變線纜32的走向,以利使用者以某些特定角度使用電腦裝置34。換句話說,藉由第二連接器38可相對連接插座42轉動的結構設計,線纜32便無需以彎折的方式來改變線纜32的走向來符合使用者以某些特定角度使用電腦裝置34的需求。如此一來,本發明不僅可以符合使用者可以某些特定角度使用電腦裝置34的需求,更可防止線纜32因彎折而損壞。In addition, since the axisymmetric terminal 40 (ie, the cylindrical terminal) has a cylindrical structure and the cylindrical chamber 46 of the connection socket 42 has a cylindrical structure, the axisymmetric terminal 40 of the second connector 38 is used. When the cylindrical terminal is inserted into the cylindrical chamber 46 of the connection socket 42, the second connector 38 is rotatable relative to the connection socket 42 along the axis of symmetry 401 of the axisymmetric terminal 40. In other words, the second connector 38 can be rotated relative to the socket 42 by the cylindrical structural design of the axisymmetric terminal 40 and the cylindrical structural design of the cylindrical chamber 46. Therefore, the cable 32 connected to the second connector 38 can be rotated by the second connector 38 relative to the connection socket 42, thereby changing the direction of the cable 32, so that the user can use the computer device 34 at certain specific angles. In other words, by the structural design that the second connector 38 is rotatable relative to the connection socket 42, the cable 32 does not need to change the direction of the cable 32 in a bent manner to conform to the user's use of the computer device at certain angles. 34 needs.

The second outer casing 54 cooperates with the first outer casing 52 to enclose the second connector 38 and the connection socket 42, thereby preventing the second connector 38 and the connection socket 42 from being damaged by collision. In addition, the first outer casing 52 is formed with a first rotating portion 521, the second outer casing 54 is formed with a second rotating portion 541, and the second connector 38 is formed with a rotating end portion 381 with respect to the second end P2 of the first end P1. During assembly, the axisymmetric terminal 40 of the second connector 38 (ie, the cylindrical terminal) is first inserted into the cylindrical chamber 46 of the connection socket 42, and the second housing 54 is mounted on the first housing 52. At this time, the first rotating portion 521 and the second rotating portion 541 can be used to pivotally connect the rotating end portion 381 of the second connector 38.

於此實施例中,第一轉動部521與第二轉動部541可分別為一弧形缺口。當第二外殼54安裝於第一外殼52上時,該兩弧形缺口(即第一轉動部521與第二轉動部541)便可結合而成為一軸孔。藉此,第二連接器38之轉動端部381便可於該軸孔內轉動,亦即當第二連接器38之第一端P1的軸對稱端子40(即該柱形端子)沿其對稱軸401相對連接插座42轉動時, 第二連接器38之轉動端部381可於該軸孔(即第一轉動部521與第二轉動部541)內轉動,藉此軸對稱端子40便可不受第一外殼52與第二外殼54干涉而相對連接插座42旋轉。In this embodiment, the first rotating portion 521 and the second rotating portion 541 may each be an arc-shaped notch. When the second outer casing 54 is mounted on the first outer casing 52, the two arcuate notches (ie, the first rotating portion 521 and the second rotating portion 541) can be combined to form a shaft hole. Thereby, the rotating end portion 381 of the second connector 38 can be rotated in the shaft hole, that is, when the axisymmetric terminal 40 of the first end P1 of the second connector 38 (ie, the column terminal) is symmetric along the same When the shaft 401 is rotated relative to the connection socket 42, The rotating end portion 381 of the second connector 38 is rotatable within the shaft hole (ie, the first rotating portion 521 and the second rotating portion 541), whereby the axisymmetric terminal 40 is free from the first outer casing 52 and the second outer casing 54.

When the connection socket 42 is connected to the second connector 38 and the second housing 54 is mounted on the first housing 52, the first stop structure 383 can be used to abut the inner side wall surface of the second housing 54 and the first housing 52. As such, the first stop structure 383 can be used to prevent the axisymmetric terminal 40 of the second connector 38 from being disengaged from the connection socket 42. In addition, the second connector 38 further includes a second stopping structure 385 connected to the rotating end 381 of the second connector 38 away from one end of the connecting socket 42 when the connecting socket 42 is connected to the second connector 38 and When the second outer casing 54 is mounted on the first outer casing 52, the second stopping structure 385 is used to abut the outer casing surface of the second outer casing 54 and the first outer casing 52. In this way, the second stopping structure 385 can be used to limit the axisymmetric terminal 40 of the second connector 38 and the connecting socket 42 , thereby preventing the axially symmetric terminal 40 of the second connector 38 from being excessively inserted into the connecting socket 42 .

承上所述,第一止擋結構383與第二止擋結構385可共同用來限制第二連接器38之轉動端部381脫離於第一外殼52與第二外殼54,以使第二外殼54可穩定地於該軸孔(即第一轉動部521與第二轉動部541)內轉動。此外,第一連接器36另包含有一殼體56,於實務上,殼體56可由金屬材質所製成,因此當第一連接器36插接於電腦裝置34上之插座341時,金屬材質製成之殼體56可用來將線纜32及/或第一連接器36上之靜電導引至插座341之一殼體345,該靜電再藉由殼體345導引至電腦裝置34的地端,藉以防止該靜電通過插座341而損壞電腦裝置34的內部電子元件。此外,第一連接器36另包含有一絕緣底座58,其安裝於殼體56內且包覆連接器端子組48,絕緣底座58可用來定位連接器端子組48,以使連接器端子組48於第一 連接器36插接於電腦裝置34上之插座341時對準插座341之主機端子組343;絕緣底座58另可用來絕緣連接器端子組48,以使連接器端子組48彼此間不導通,進而使連接器端子組48可穩定地耦接於插座341之主機端子組343。As described above, the first stop structure 383 and the second stop structure 385 can be used together to limit the rotation end 381 of the second connector 38 from the first outer casing 52 and the second outer casing 54 so that the second outer casing 54 is rotatable in the shaft hole (i.e., the first rotating portion 521 and the second rotating portion 541). In addition, the first connector 36 further includes a housing 56. In practice, the housing 56 can be made of a metal material. Therefore, when the first connector 36 is inserted into the socket 341 of the computer device 34, the metal material is made of metal. The housing 56 can be used to direct the static electricity on the cable 32 and/or the first connector 36 to a housing 345 of the socket 341, which is then guided to the ground of the computer device 34 by the housing 345. In order to prevent the static electricity from damaging the internal electronic components of the computer device 34 through the socket 341. In addition, the first connector 36 further includes an insulating base 58 mounted in the housing 56 and covering the connector terminal set 48. The insulating base 58 can be used to position the connector terminal set 48 such that the connector terminal set 48 is the first The connector 36 is inserted into the socket 341 of the computer device 34 to align with the host terminal set 343 of the socket 341; the insulating base 58 can also be used to insulate the connector terminal set 48 so that the connector terminal sets 48 are not electrically connected to each other. The connector terminal set 48 can be stably coupled to the host terminal set 343 of the socket 341.
