Abstract
A thermoconductive structure includes a waterproof casing, a socket and a thermoconductive plate. The socket is accommodated in the waterproof casing and includes a metal housing having an inserting opening and a side opening defined on a side of the inserting opening. The thermoconductive plate is movably disposed on the metal housing. One surface of the thermoconductive plate protrudes from an inner surface of the metal housing through the side opening. Another surface of the thermoconductive plate is provided with a soft thermoconductive element. The soft thermoconductive element is disposed between an inner surface of the waterproof casing and the thermoconductive plate. When a plug is inserted into the metal housing, the plug pushes the thermoconductive plate to make the soft thermoconductive element be compressed by the thermoconductive plate and the waterproof housing.
