Abstract
A Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash drive includes a slim USB device having an end used to couple the USB flash drive to a host and an opposite end and a swivel cap having a side slit that serves as an opening into which the slim USB device travels horizontally, the side slit being disposed along a lateral side of the swivel cap. The USB flash drive also includes a USB device rivet placed into the slim USB device and the swivel cap to pivotally connect them at one of the ends of the slim USB device, so that the slim USB device is pivotally extendable outwardly from the side slit in a closed or open position. The swivel rocker is pivotally extendable outwardly from the opposite end of the slim USB device and when the swivel rocker is extended outwardly, the slim USB device is caused to extend outwardly.
