Referring to FIG. 2, the connector module 100 of the present embodiment is adapted to be connected to a connection interface 60, wherein the connection interface 60 may be a connector for a portable device such as a Tablet PC, a Notebook computer or a Smart Phone, may be a connector for a signal/power transmission device such as a transmission line connector or a vehicle charging dock, or may be a connector for other type of electronic device, but the invention is not limited thereto. During a process of plug connection, when the connection interface 60 moves towards the connecting portion 120a of the connection component 120, the connection interface 60 pushes the protrusion component 130 along the first direction D1 to provide an external force to drive the connection component 120 and the protrusion component 130 to produce relative movements, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 2, so as to change relative positions of the connection component 120 and the protrusion component 130, so that the connecting portion 120a exceeds the protrusion component 130 along a second direction D2 opposite to the first direction D1 and protrudes out of the outer casing 52 of the electronic device 50 to be plugged into the connection interface 60.
With the aforesaid configurations and actuation approaches, in case that the connector module 100 is not plugged into the corresponding connection interface 60, the outer casing 52 of the electronic device 50 may be used to protect the connecting portion 120a of the connection component 120, so as to prevent the connecting portion 120a from being subjected to abrasion or damaged by the external force. When a user intends to plug the connector module 100 into the corresponding connection interface 60, the user only requires to move the connection interface 60 towards the connecting portion 120a of the connection component 120, then the connection interface 60 would push against the protrusion component 130 to enable the connecting portion 120a to exceed the protrusion component 130 and be plugged into the connection interface 60, thereby enabling the connector module 100 to have an intuitive and convenient plug connection operation.
In the present embodiment, the protrusion component 130 is slidingly disposed at the main body 110 along the first direction D1, and the connection component 120 is slidingly disposed at the main body 110 along the second direction D2.

Based on the above, a length of the protrusion component 130 protruding from the main body 110 when the protrusion component 130 is at the first position, as shown in FIG. 1, is not less than a length of the connection component 120 protruding from the main body 110; at this moment, the connection component 120 has a smaller protruding length and is suitable to be protected. Whereas, a length of the protrusion component 130 protruding from the main body 110 when the protrusion component is at the second position, as shown in FIG. 2, is less than the length of the connection component 120 protruding from the main body 110; at this moment, the connection component 120 has a greater protruding length and is suitable for being plugged into the connection interface 60.

With the aforesaid configurations and actuation approaches, in case that the connector module 200 is not plugged into the corresponding connection interface connection interface 80, the protrusion components 230 may be used to protect the connecting portion 220a of the connection component 220, so as to prevent the connecting portion 220a from being subjected to abrasion or damaged by the external force. When a user intends to plug the connector module 200 into the corresponding connection interface 80, the user only requires to move the connection interface 80 towards the connecting portion 220a of the connection component 220, then the connection interface 80 would push against the protrusion components 230 to enable the connecting portion 220a to be plugged into the connection interface 80, thereby enabling the connector module 200 to have an intuitive and convenient plug connection operation.

In case that the connection component 220 is plugged into the connection interface 80, the connection interface 80 keeps to push against the protrusion component 230 to limit the protrusion components 230 at positions shown in FIG. 6. Next, when the user removes the connection interface 80, the protrusion components 230 are being automatically restored to the positions shown in FIG. 5 along the second direction D2 via the elastic force of the elastic portions 240.
