Description

USB transmission line

This creative department is related to the connection of information communication products and external electronic devices; in particular, a USB transmission line.

A universal serial bus (hereinafter referred to as a USB transmission line) is known as a product having an asymmetric connector at both ends, and thus is widely used for connecting various electronic products having different specifications of ports. For example, mobile devices, personal computers, digital TVs, game consoles or photographic equipment. Therefore, the USB transmission line has developed various structures according to the demand. As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the USB transmission line adopts a one-to-one design for the connectors of the common ends, and a USB transmission line as shown in FIG. Then, the connectors at both ends have a one-to-many connection relationship.

Although the USB transmission line has to extend the transmission distance by changing the length of the connection line connecting the connectors at both ends. However, too long a connection line often causes inconvenience and troubles of storage. In order to solve the foregoing problem, the USB transmission line 1 shown in FIG. 1 is often bundled with a flexible wire body 2 (usually a metal wire coated with an insulating plastic) to bond the intermediate portion of the folded connecting wire 1a, and then Both ends of the wire body 2 are spirally wound to tighten the connecting wire 1a. Or use a rubber ring (not shown) to directly cover the folded connection line. Further, in the USB transmission line 3 shown in Fig. 2, the connection line 3a is bundled using two line bodies 2. Although the above method can restrain the connecting line to prevent it from being scattered, in practical applications, the flexible wire body 2 and the rubber ring are not easy to obtain, and the hidden defects are hidden.

In addition, based on the binding habit and the stability after the binding, when the flexible wire 2 or the rubber ring is directly tied to the middle portion of the connecting line 1a (3a), the connecting line 1a (3a) is located. The connectors 1b (3b) at both ends are in a hanging state. In this case, for a connector including a metal joint, when a part of the metal joint is bare for facilitating the plugging, it will be easily hit by other objects without being protected, or subjected to external force to produce different degrees. The deformation is not easy to insert, but it is difficult to use and needs to be replaced. In the end, the connector 1b (3b) that is still in a hung state after being stored is most likely to be directly damaged by external force.

As for the USB transmission line 4 shown in Fig. 3, although there are a plurality of in-line connectors at one end of the connection line, the connector 4a having a bare metal joint is still at the other end. Therefore, there is a risk that the above metal joint is easily damaged.

In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a USB transmission line, which is such that the connector after being attached is placed against the connection line without hanging, thereby reducing the damage caused by the connector being inadvertently damaged.

In order to achieve the above object, the USB transmission line provided by the present invention includes a first connector, a second connector, a connecting wire and a binding member. The two ends of the connecting wire are electrically connected to the first connector and the second connector respectively; the binding member is flexible and coupled to the first connector or the second connector, the binding The piece is fastened to the connecting line so that the connector incorporating the binding member abuts the connecting line.

The effect of the creation is that it is easy to store, and the binding member is free from loss and can be reused.

In order to explain the present invention more clearly, the preferred embodiment will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. As shown in FIG. 4, the USB transmission line 10 of the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a connection line 12 for determining a transmission distance, and two ends of the connection line 12 are electrically connected to a first connector 14 respectively. With a second connector 16. In this embodiment, the first connector 14 includes a metal connector 14a and an insulative housing 14b. The second connector 16 also includes a metal connector 16a and an insulative housing 16b. Each of the foregoing metal joints has an asymmetrical structure, and a part of the metal joint is covered by an insulating shell made of plastic, and the other part is exposed to be inserted into the connection of the electronic product to electrically connect different electronic products.

The USB transmission line 10 further includes a flexible binding member. In this embodiment, the binding member is a narrow-faced elongated strip body 18 having a male adhesive felt 18a on one side and a female adhesive felt 18b on the opposite side. One end of the strip-shaped strip 18 is fixed to the side of the insulating shell 14b of the first connector 14 by, but not limited to, welding, for example, by adhesive bonding.

Connecting the cable 12 without using the USB transmission line 10 When the plurality of folding is in the state shown in FIG. 5, the user directly wraps the long strip 18 around the connecting wire 12, and then the male adhesive 18a is bonded to the female adhesive 18b to tighten the connection. The wire 12, by adjusting the position where the male adhesive felt 18a and the female adhesive felt 18b are overlapped, can change the tightening force, thereby effectively accommodating the USB transmission line 10. Since the elongated strip body 18 is fixed to the insulative housing 14b of the first connector 14, it is not lost and has a problem of storage and storage, and has a quick and repeated use effect.

In addition, since the elongated strip body 18 is fixed to the insulative housing 14b of the first connector 14, when the strip-shaped strip 18 is directly wound around the intermediate portion of the connecting line 12, The first connector 14 including the metal fitting 14a will be folded at the intermediate position of the rear connecting wire 12 as shown in FIG. 5, and abuts against the connecting wire 12, so that it is not in a state of being hung. Moreover, the metal joint 14a is not exposed outside the folding range of the connecting wire 12, that is, the metal joint 14a is protected by the connecting wire 12, thereby reducing the metal joint 14a inadvertently colliding with other objects and damaging the structure. Probability.

Please refer to the USB transmission line 20 of another preferred embodiment of the present invention shown in FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , which also has a connecting line 22 , a first connector 24 and a second connector 26 . Different from the above embodiment, the binding member 28 of the USB transmission line 20 is made of a fabric having a body 28a and two side wings 28b (e.g., squid). Wherein the body 28a has a set of holes 28c for the insulating casing of one of the connectors to penetrate therein, and the body 28a has flexibility or elasticity to be deformed by an external force, thereby being more firmly coupled to the insulating casing. . In this embodiment, the binding member 28 is coupled to the first connector 24 as an example.

The two side wings 28b of the binding member 28 of the USB transmission line 20 are respectively connected to both sides of the body 28a, wherein one side wing has an engaging member 28d and the other side wing has an engaged member 28e. In this embodiment, the engaging member 28d and the engaged member 28e are magnets, and are respectively wrapped around each other. The inside of the wing. Thereby, when the connecting line 22 is folded in the state shown in FIG. 8 without using the USB transmission line 20, the two side flaps 28b surround the connecting line 22, and the engaging member 28d and the engaged member 28e are magnetically Firmly tightening the connecting wire 22 by suction causes the first connector 24 and the second connector 26 to abut against the connecting line 22 without hanging. In this way, the damage caused by the inadvertent damage of each connector can be reduced.

Finally, it is emphasized that this creation mainly combines the binding member on the insulating shell of the connector. Therefore, no matter how the connecting cable is folded, the connector will be securely connected when the connecting cable is tightened. The line does not hang, thereby reducing the damage caused by the connector accidentally being damaged.

The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and equivalent changes to the scope of the present application and the scope of the patent application are intended to be included in the scope of the present patent.
