Patent Application
20210040777
The present invention relates to a structure used for an adapter, and in particular to an adapter collection ring structure.
Nowadays, due to the widespread and increasing use of Internet, people usually use 3C products, such as smart phones, tablets, notebook computers, and other types of handsets to send and receive e-mail and to gather information easily and conveniently. As such, the 3C products play an important role in our daily life. In this respect, the price of new generation of 3C product tends to be high, and since it is of light weight and compact size, it is liable to be stolen and taken away easily in an Exhibition. Therefore, presently on the market, quite a lot of anti-theft locks and chains are available, to prevent 3C products from being stolen.
In addition, a lot of high-end connectors and adapters are available on the market and are often placed in an Exhibition for display and sales promotion. Due to the enormous crowd on sight, the connectors and adapters can be stolen and taken away easily, to cause losses and damages to the vendors. Even worse, this may cause supply shortage of 3C products, to adversely affect the normal operations of an Exhibition.
For the conventional anti-theft connector head, on an adapter is provided with a hole, for a ring-shape rope body to penetrate through. And a fastening sleeve tube is disposed on the rope body, to be fixed onto a fix position of the adapter, to restrict the adapter connected to move only in a range of the length of the ring-shape rope body, to prevent theft from happening. However, this type of structure is rather too simple, the anti-theft function is not sufficient, thus the adapter can easily be broken, to cause damage and loss to its user.
Therefore, presently, the design and performance of the anti-theft connector head is not quite satisfactory, and it leaves much room for improvements.
In view of the problems and drawbacks of the prior art, the present invention provides an adapter collection ring structure, that is novel in design, and easy to operate.
The present invention provides an adapter collection ring structure, that includes: a plurality of adapters, a ring shape lock piece, and a plurality of plug sleeve pieces. The plurality of adapters is used to be connected to connectors of various different specifications. The ring shape lock piece is formed by a flexible wire bodies having both ends disposed a lock head and a lock insertion rod respectively. The plurality of plug sleeve piece is adapted to each having a fixed end and a movable end, with the fixed end connected to a wire body of the ring lock piece, and with its movable end connected to a connection portion, connected to the plurality of adapters 1 respectively.
Preferably, the lock head is one of a combination lock and a key lock but the present invention is not limited to this.
Preferably, the plug sleeve piece is a flexible short section wire body, with a sleeve ring, disposed at a tail portion of the fixed end of the plug sleeve piece, but the present invention is not limited to this.
Preferably, the ring shape lock piece and the plug sleeve piece are made of steel wires, but the present invention is not limited to this.
Compared with the existing technology, the present invention has the advantages that, it can be used to gather and protect a plurality of adapters connected to the ring shape lock piece, so that the range of movement of the adapters is limited by the length of the plug sleeve piece. In this way, the present invention is able to protect the adapters from being lost, to prevent the adapter collection ring structure from being opened, and the adapters being taken away easily, in achieving the objective of preventing the loss or theft of the adapters.
In addition, through the design of the present invention, a plurality of various independent adapters can be attached to the same connection cable. As such, the adapters can be replaced by various other types of adapters at any time. When the adapter is inserted and connected by the connector head connected to the connection cable, it could satisfy the needs of the various 3C products. The outputs of the adapters can be connected to the peripheral equipment of the prevalent technology, such as liquid crystal screen, projector, stereo surround sound device, or other various devices.
Further scope of the applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed descriptions given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed descriptions and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the present invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from the detailed descriptions.
