Lipstick-Type USB Device With Tubular Housing

摘要

A USB device including a tubular housing and a rear cap assembly including a handle structure that is rotatably connected to the tubular housing to facilitate deploying and retracting a plug connector through a front opening of the housing. The plug connector is fixedly connected onto the front end of a sliding rack assembly that is disposed in housing such that the sliding rack assembly is slidable along a longitudinal axis. The sliding rack assembly includes a carrier including a carrier tray for supporting electronic devices and an elongated positioning rod extending from a rear portion of the carrier tray. The positioning rod is operably engaged with an actuator portion such that manual rotation of the rear cap handle structure relative to the housing around the longitudinal axis causes the sliding rack assembly to slide inside the housing between retracted and deployed positions.
