Description

Adapter structure

This creation relates to an adapter structure, and more particularly to an adapter structure that improves the stability of a transmission line.

The existing universal serial bus (USB), lightning, HDMI and other connector interfaces have been widely used by the public, and the USB interface transmission specification has been developed to the USB3.0 specification with faster transmission speed. In particular, the USB Type-C is the first connector interface that can be plugged in front and back, with improved plug-in convenience and greater charging requirements. In addition, Lightning connectors are also designed with front and back plugs. Since the USB Type-C and Lightning are different in size and size, the two cannot be used interchangeably, and the signal and/or power must be transmitted to each other through an adapter.

In the existing adapter, for example, a transmission line with a Lightning plug, is plugged into an adapter structure having a USB plug, wherein the adapter of the USB plug is only plugged into the Lightning plug, since the Lightning plug is only plugged in After the socket of the USB adapter, the swaying of the transmission line and the instability of the plugging are often caused, and even the dropout affects the transmission of signals or power between the two. Therefore, the creators of this case, based on their years of research and development experience in related fields, conducted in-depth discussions on the aforementioned shortcomings, and actively sought solutions based on the above-mentioned needs. After a long period of hard work and many tests, the author finally completed the creation.

One of the purposes of this creation is to provide an adapter structure that effectively improves the stability of the transmission line and even shortens the length of the transmission line.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an adapter structure for plugging a transmission line having a plug, and a holding portion is disposed between the transmission line and the plug. The adapter structure includes a body. The body includes a corresponding first end and a second end. The first end has a first transmission interface, and the second end has a slot recessed into the body and a second transmission interface disposed in the slot. The second transmission interface and the first transmission interface have different interface specifications, wherein the transmission interface of the plug conforms to the second transmission interface specification, and more than one-half of the grip portion is accommodated in the slot.

This creation also has the following functions, which effectively improve the stability of the transmission line, and even shorten the structure of the transmission line. In addition, the second end of the body is further provided with a notch so that the user can easily pull out the transmission line and separate from the body by holding the grip.

The second transmission interface 115 and the first transmission interface 113 have different interface specifications, wherein the transmission interface of the plug 21 conforms to the specification of the second transmission interface 115, and is electrically inserted into the slot 114 of the second transmission interface 115, and the transmission line 2 More than one-half of the grip 22 is housed in the slot 114. In the present embodiment, the grip portion 22 is preferably fully received in the slot 114 for more stable insertion into the slot 114.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the first transmission interface 113 preferably conforms to the specifications of a Universal Serial Bus (USB) connector. The second transmission interface 115 is a Lightning connector specification for transferring the transmission line 2 with the lightning plug 21 now, via the adapter structure 1 to a signal and/or power transmission conforming to the USB interface specification. specification.

However, in other different embodiments, the first transmission interface 113 may also be a specification conforming to a connector such as a micro universal serial bus (Micro USB), a mini universal serial bus (Mini USB), a lightning (Lightning), and an IEEE 1934. The second transmission interface 115 is in conformity with the specifications of a universal serial bus (USB), a micro universal serial bus (Micro USB), a mini universal serial bus (Mini USB), a lightning (Lightning), and an IEEE 1934 connector. To switch to the connector communication interface standard of different interface specifications.

The main body 11 further includes a switching module 12 having a first conductive terminal group 121 conforming to and connecting to the first transmission interface 113 and a second conductive terminal group conforming to and connecting the second transmission interface 115. 122, and a circuit board 123 electrically coupled to the first conductive terminal group 121 and the second conductive terminal group 122.

The number of the first conductive terminal groups 121 shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 is preferably five, that is, the first transmission interface 113 conforms to a USB transmission interface. The number of the second conductive terminal groups 122 is eight, that is, the second transmission interface 115 is in conformity with a lightning transmission interface. An electronic component such as a chip (not shown) is built in the circuit board 123 for transmitting signals or power between the lightning and the USB through the switching module 12.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 3, the number of the second conductive terminal groups 121 is 24, that is, the second transmission interface 115 preferably conforms to a USB Type-C transmission interface, so as to transmit the USB Type-C signal, Power is output or input through the USB interface specification. The adapter module 12 of the adapter structure 1 is prior art and will not be described here.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , since the length of the slot 114 is the same as the length of the grip portion 22 and the plug 21 , the grip portion 22 can be completely accommodated in the slot 114 . In order to effectively improve the stability and reliability of the transmission line 1 plugged into the adapter structure 1, the problem of easy off, signal, and power transmission instability is solved.

When the transmission line 2 is to be pulled out from the adapter structure 1, the second end 112 of the body 11 is further provided with a notch 116. The user can grip the holding portion 22 and easily pull out the transmission line 2 so as to be connected with the body 11. Separation.

In summary, the embodiments disclosed herein are to be considered as illustrative of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. The scope of this creation is defined by the scope of the appended patent application and covers its legal equivalents and is not limited to the foregoing description.
