DETAILED DESCRIPTION
Referring to FIG. 1, a connector plug 10 is provided. The connector plug 10 includes a shell 100 and at least two conducting poles 20. In the exemplary embodiment, the number of the at least two conducting poles 20 is two.
Referring to FIGS. 2-3, the shell 100 includes an upper shell 200 and a lower shell 201. The upper shell 200 includes a sidewall 225 and a sidewall 227 opposite to the sidewall 225. Two first cutouts 224 are defined in the sidewall 225. Two first threaded grooves 222 are defined in the sidewall 227. The size of the first threaded groove 222 gradually increases along a direction away from the first cutouts 224. A screw pole 228 is protruded from the surface of the upper shell 200. The lower shell 201 includes a sidewall 215 and a sidewall 217 opposite to the sidewall 215. Two-second cutouts 214 are defined in the sidewall 215, to cooperate with the first cutouts 224 to form two circularity shaped holes. Two second threaded grooves 212 are defined in the sidewall 217, and the size of each second threaded groove 212 gradually increases along a direction away from the second fixing hole 214. Each second threaded groove 212 cooperates with a corresponding first threaded groove 222 to form a frustum shaped hole. A screw pole 216 is protruded from the surface of the lower shell 201, and is corresponding to the screw pole 228. In the exemplary embodiment, the size of each first cutout 224 equals to the size of each second cutout 214, and the size of each first threaded groove 222 equals to the size of each second threaded groove 212.
Referring to FIG. 4, the first cutout 224 of the upper shell 200 cooperates with the second cutout 214 of the lower shell 201, the first threaded groove 222 of the upper shell 200 cooperates with the second threaded groove 212 of the lower shell 201, and the screw pole 228 resists to the screw pole 216, to form the connector plug 10.
The conducting pole 20 includes a pin 202, a cable 205, and a threaded fixing portion 203. The cable 205 is electrically connected to the pin 202. The threaded fixing portion 203 is disposed on the cable 205 and adjacent to the pin 202.
The pin 202 is configured for inserting into a hole of a connector jock (not shown) to make an electronical connection with the connector jack.
The cable 205 is made of flexible material, and is placed between the upper shell 200 and the lower shell 201 in an S-shaped configuration. A first protrusion 207 and a second protrusion 209 are protruded from the circumferential surface of the cable 205. When the cable 205 is fixed between the first cutout 224 of the upper shell 200 and the second cutout 214 of the lower shell 201, the second protrusion 209 resists the outside of the upper shell 200 and the lower shell 201, and the first protrusion 207 locates insider of the upper shell 200 and the lower shell 201. That is, the portion of the cable 205 between the first protrusion 207 and the second protrusion 209 is fixed between the first cutout 224 of the upper shell 200 and the second cutout 214 of the lower shell 201 fixing the cable 205 in place. In the exemplary embodiment, the diameter of the cable 205 is approximately equal to the diameter of the hole formed by the first cutout 224 and the second cutout 214.
The threaded fixing portion 203 is frustum shaped, and the size of the threaded fixing portion 203 gradually increases along a direction from the cable 205 to the pin 202. The size of the threaded fixing portion 203 adapts to the size of a groove formed by the first threaded groove 222 with the second threaded groove 212, so that, the threaded fixing portion 203 can be received between the first threaded groove 222 and the second threaded groove 212, and the pin 202 is movable to relative to the shell 100.
When the connector plug 10 is not used, the threaded fixing portion 203 is received between the first threaded groove 222 and the second threaded groove 212, and the first protrusion 207 locates inside of the upper shell 200 and the lower shell 201, and the second protrusion 209 resists the outside of the upper shell 200 and the lower shell 201.
Referring to FIG. 5, when the connector plug 10 is used, but there is not enough space on the connector jock for the connector plug 10 to insert, the user can rotate out the threaded fixing portion 203 from the first threaded groove 222 and the second threaded groove 212 of the connector plug 10, so that, the length of the conducting pole 20 exposing from the shell 100 is enough long, thereby inserting the connector jack.
Although the present disclosure has been specifically described on the basis of the embodiments thereof, the disclosure is not to be construed as being limited thereto. Various changes or modifications may be made to the embodiments without departing from the scope and spirit of the disclosure.
