Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of portable power supply technology, and particularly relates to a mobile workstation. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, outdoor work scenarios are increasingly common, such as construction, field maintenance, emergency rescue, and temporary activities, often requiring various auxiliary tools to meet different needs such as lighting, power supply, ventilation, and recreation. However, existing mobile devices for outdoor work on the market are mostly single-function tools, such as standalone portable work lights, power banks, or small fans, typically only capable of one to three functions. Furthermore, most devices require wired connections, making them inconvenient to carry and store, and difficult to use simultaneously for multiple functions. In addition, the installation locations of existing products are relatively fixed, and the lighting angle or airflow direction cannot be flexibly adjusted according to site requirements, especially when multi-angle lighting or multi-device collaborative work is needed, significantly limiting their effectiveness. Moreover, these products generally lack scalability, unable to flexibly add or replace functional modules according to changes in work tasks, making it difficult to meet the complex and ever-changing needs of outdoor work. Therefore, existing outdoor auxiliary tools still have significant shortcomings in terms of functional integration, portability, flexibility, and scalability. Summary of the Invention
[0003] (a) Purpose of the invention To overcome the above shortcomings, the present invention aims to provide a mobile workstation to solve the technical problems of existing outdoor auxiliary tools having limited functions, relying on wired connections, being unable to be used simultaneously, having fixed installation locations and lacking expandability, and being unable to meet the complex and ever-changing needs of outdoor operations.
[0004] (II) Technical Solution To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution provided in this application is as follows: A mobile workstation includes: a housing; a rechargeable power supply system disposed inside the housing; a plurality of first power supply interfaces disposed on the outer surface of the housing and electrically connected to the power supply system; and a plurality of functional devices housed in the housing and removable for use, each functional device being electrically connected to the power supply system through any of the first power supply interfaces to operate powered by the power supply system.
[0005] By integrating the power supply system into the enclosure and setting multiple unified power supply interfaces on the enclosure surface, various functional devices can be flexibly accessed and plugged in at will, realizing a modular combination of power supply and function. Users can quickly replace or use different functional devices simultaneously according to the actual needs of outdoor operations, significantly improving the integration and flexibility of the equipment. At the same time, the enclosure itself can serve as a stable fixed base, ensuring stability and reliability during use, and is easy to store and carry.
[0006] In some embodiments, the outer surface of the enclosure is further provided with a second power supply interface that is electrically connected to the power supply system for supplying power to external devices.
[0007] By adding a second power supply interface to the enclosure, the workstation can not only power its own functional devices, but also provide power support for other external electrical devices, further expanding its applicability as a mobile power source and meeting the power needs of more outdoor scenarios.
[0008] In some embodiments, each first power supply interface includes: an interface base, a coupling structure disposed within the interface base for forming a detachable mechanical connection with a functional device, and an electrical connection structure having one end electrically connected to the power supply system and the other end extending out of the interface base for connection with the functional device.
[0009] By integrating mechanical coupling and electrical connection into the same interface base, functional devices can be fixed and powered on simultaneously with a simple plug-in during installation, eliminating the need for additional cable connections. This makes operation convenient and the connection reliable, avoiding the cumbersome separate wiring required by traditional devices and improving efficiency and safety.
[0010] In some embodiments, the coupling structure includes a plurality of arc-shaped limiting blocks arranged along the circumference, each limiting block having a right-angled cross-section; the bottom of the functional device is provided with the same number of slots as the limiting blocks and an electrical connector for insertion into the electrical connection structure; one end of each slot is a wide opening adapted to the cross-section of the limiting block, and the other end is an arc-shaped narrow opening with a diameter smaller than the cross-section of the limiting block, and the side of the arc-shaped narrow opening is provided with an arc-shaped tightening part that abuts against the side of the limiting block.
[0011] This rotating snap-fit connection structure allows for quick and secure integration of the functional equipment with the housing. Locking or disassembly can be achieved through a simple rotation operation, while the arc-shaped top clamping part effectively eliminates gaps and prevents the equipment from loosening. This ensures reliable mechanical connection and electrical contact even in moving or vibrating environments, improving operational stability and safety.
[0012] In some embodiments, the case is a portable structure, including a bottom shell and a cover hinged to the bottom shell.
[0013] The portable case design makes the entire workstation easy to carry and transport. The cover can be opened and closed to protect the internal equipment. At the same time, the case can be used as a stable base when in use, placed on the ground or workbench. The structure is simple and practical, meeting the portability and protection requirements of outdoor operations.
[0014] In some embodiments, the power supply system includes: a control circuit board connected to the inner side of the front cover and a battery disposed in the bottom shell, wherein the control circuit board and the battery are electrically connected by wires.
[0015] Integrating the control circuit board inside the front cover allows users to easily view the status and operate the device, while also preventing damage from external impacts. Placing the battery at the bottom of the casing helps lower the overall center of gravity, improving stability. Meanwhile, the wiring connections are logically laid out, making full use of internal space and resulting in a compact overall structure.
[0016] In some embodiments, the device further includes: a receiving plate disposed within the bottom shell, wherein the bottom of the receiving plate has a first receiving groove for receiving the battery, and the top has a second receiving groove that matches the shape of the functional device for receiving the functional device.
[0017] The storage compartments are used to organize the battery and functional devices in separate sections, which makes full use of the internal space of the enclosure and avoids collisions or squeezing between devices, thus protecting the safety of each component. At the same time, the functional devices have their own dedicated slots, making them easy to put in and take out, and keeping them neat and orderly, which improves the organization of the storage and the convenience of use.
[0018] In some embodiments, it further includes: a sealing cover, connected to the outer surface of the enclosure and adjacent to the first power supply interface and / or the second power supply interface, for covering the corresponding power supply interface.
[0019] The sealing cover effectively seals the interface when the power supply is not in use, preventing dust, moisture and other impurities from entering, protecting the internal circuits and contacts, improving the workstation's durability and environmental adaptability, and is especially suitable for harsh outdoor environments with humidity or dust, ensuring reliable equipment operation.
[0020] In some embodiments, each functional device is provided with a control switch.
[0021] Each functional device comes with its own control switch, allowing users to individually control the start / stop or adjust the working status of each device without interference. The operation is intuitive and convenient, and it is easy to combine them flexibly in different usage scenarios, further enhancing the convenience and personalization of use.
[0022] In some embodiments, the functional device includes one or more of a light fixture, a fan, or a speaker.
[0023] By offering a variety of optional functional devices, this mobile workstation can cover a wide range of common needs in outdoor operations. Users can freely combine different devices according to the actual scenario to achieve multiple uses, greatly expanding the application scope of the product. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation
[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are merely exemplary and not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, descriptions of well-known structures and techniques are omitted in the following description to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the concept of the invention.
[0027] This invention provides a mobile workstation, comprising: a housing 1, which adopts a portable design, specifically consisting of a bottom shell 11 and a front cover 12 hinged to the bottom shell 11. The front cover 12 can be opened and closed for easy access to internal items. A rechargeable power supply system 2 is installed inside the housing 1, including a battery 22 and a related control circuit board 21, capable of storing electrical energy and powering other devices. Multiple first power supply interfaces 3 are distributed on the outer surface of the housing 1, and these interfaces are electrically connected to the power supply system 2 inside the housing 1 via wires. In addition, the workstation is equipped with multiple functional devices 4, such as lamps, fans 43, or speakers, which can be stored inside the housing 1 when not in use and removed from the housing 1 when needed. Each functional device 4 is designed to be electrically connected to the power supply system 2 through any of the first power supply interfaces 3, thereby being powered by the power supply system 2 to begin operation. In this way, by integrating the power supply system 2 into the housing 1 and setting multiple unified power supply interfaces on the surface of the housing 1, various functional devices 4 can be flexibly accessed and plugged in at will, realizing a modular combination of power supply and function. Users can quickly replace or use different functional devices 4 simultaneously according to the actual needs of outdoor operations, which significantly improves the integration and flexibility of the equipment. At the same time, the housing 1 itself can serve as a stable fixed base to ensure stability and reliability during use, and is easy to store and carry.
[0028] Furthermore, a second power supply interface 5 can be provided on the outer surface of the housing 1, which is also electrically connected to the power supply system 2. This second power supply interface 5 is mainly used to supply power to external devices, such as charging mobile phones, laptops, or other electrical devices not included in the standard equipment of this workstation. By adding this second power supply interface 5 to the housing 1, the workstation can not only supply power to its own functional devices 4, but also provide power support to other external electrical devices, further expanding its applicability as a portable power source and meeting the power needs of more outdoor scenarios.
[0029] Specifically, each first power supply interface 3 may include an interface base 31, which is fixedly mounted on the outer surface of the enclosure 1. The interface base 31 has an internal coupling structure for forming a detachable mechanical connection with the functional device 4, ensuring that the functional device 4 can be securely installed on the enclosure 1. Simultaneously, the interface base 31 also has an electrical connection structure 33. One end of this structure is electrically connected to the power supply system 2 inside the enclosure 1, and the other end extends out of the interface base 31 for electrical connection with the functional device 4. By integrating the mechanical coupling and electrical connection into the same interface base 31, the functional device 4 can be simply plugged in during installation to simultaneously achieve fixation and power supply, eliminating the need for additional cable connections. This convenient operation and reliable connection avoid the cumbersome process of separate wiring required for traditional devices, improving efficiency and safety.
[0030] Preferably, the above coupling structure can adopt a rotary snap-fit design. This structure includes multiple arc-shaped limiting blocks 32 arranged circumferentially, each limiting block 32 having a right-angled cross-section. Correspondingly, the bottom of the functional device 4 is provided with the same number of slots 41 as the limiting blocks 32, and an electrical connector 46 for insertion into the electrical connection structure 33; one end of each slot 41 is configured as a wide opening 411 adapted to the cross-section of the limiting block 32, allowing the limiting block 32 to be smoothly inserted, while the other end is an arc-shaped narrow opening 412 with a diameter smaller than the cross-section of the limiting block 32, and the side of the arc-shaped narrow opening 412 is provided with an arc-shaped tightening part 413 that abuts against the side of the limiting block 32. During installation, align the wide opening 411 of the slot 41 at the bottom of the functional device 4 with the limiting block 32 on the housing 1, and gently press down to allow the limiting block 32 to enter the wide opening 411. Then rotate the functional device 4, and the limiting block 32 will slide into the arc-shaped narrow opening 412. At the same time, the arc-shaped tightening part 413 will tightly abut against the side of the limiting block 32, eliminating the gap between the slot 41 and the functional device 4, thereby locking and fixing the functional device 4. This rotating snap-fit connection structure makes the connection between the functional device 4 and the housing 1 quick and stable. Locking or disassembly can be achieved through a simple rotation operation. At the same time, the arc-shaped tightening part 413 can effectively eliminate gaps, prevent the device from loosening, and ensure reliable mechanical connection and electrical contact even in moving or vibrating environments, improving the stability and safety of use.
[0031] Based on this, the case 1 is a portable structure, specifically including a bottom shell 11 and a front cover 12. The front cover 12 is connected to the bottom shell 11 via a hinge and can be opened and closed freely. The portable case 1 design makes the entire workstation easy to carry and transport. The front cover 12 can be opened and closed to protect the internal equipment. At the same time, when in use, the case 1 can serve as a stable base, placed on the ground or a workbench. The structure is simple and practical, meeting the portability and protection requirements of outdoor operations.
[0032] Regarding the specific layout of the power supply system 2, the control circuit board 21 can be connected to the inner side of the front cover 12, so that when the front cover 12 is opened, the user can easily observe the status indicator lights or operating switches on the control circuit board 21. The battery 22 is located inside the bottom shell 11, usually at the bottom. The control circuit board 21 and the battery 22 are electrically connected by wires. Integrating the control circuit board 21 inside the front cover 12 not only facilitates the user to view the status and operate it, but also avoids damage from external collisions; placing the battery 22 at the bottom of the bottom shell 11 helps to lower the center of gravity of the entire enclosure 1, improving placement stability. At the same time, the wiring connection layout is reasonable, the internal space is fully utilized, and the overall structure is compact.
[0033] To more efficiently organize the internal components, a receiving plate 6 can be installed inside the bottom shell 11. The bottom of this receiving plate 6 has a first receiving groove 62 for accommodating and securing the battery 22, preventing it from shifting within the housing 1. The top of the receiving plate 6 has multiple second receiving grooves 61, the shapes of which correspond to the shapes of the functional devices 4, for accommodating and securing each functional device 4. By dividing the storage space of the battery 22 and functional devices 4 using the receiving plate 6, the internal space of the housing 1 is fully utilized, and collisions or compression between devices are prevented, protecting the safety of each component. Simultaneously, each functional device 4 has its own dedicated receiving groove, making it convenient and orderly to access, improving both the organization of the storage and the ease of use. Specifically, the receiving plate 6 has wire holes for the wires connecting the control circuit board 21 to the battery 22 side.
[0034] It is worth noting that a sealing cover 7 can also be installed on the outer surface of the enclosure 1, adjacent to the first power supply interface 3 and the second power supply interface 5. This sealing cover 7 can be connected to the enclosure 1 via a hinge or flexible connector. When a power supply interface is not in use, the sealing cover 7 can be closed over the interface, providing a protective seal. The sealing cover 7 effectively seals the interface when not in use, preventing dust, moisture, and other impurities from entering, protecting the internal circuitry and contacts, and improving the workstation's durability and environmental adaptability. It is particularly suitable for harsh outdoor environments with high humidity or dust, ensuring reliable equipment operation.
[0035] In addition, each functional device 4 is independently equipped with a control switch 42. This switch can be a button, a toggle switch, or other common types, used to control the on / off state or adjust the working mode of the functional device 4. Each functional device 4 has its own control switch 42, allowing users to control the start / stop or adjust the working state of each device independently without interference. The operation is intuitive and convenient, and it is also easy to combine them flexibly in different usage scenarios, further enhancing the convenience and personalization of use.
[0036] Preferably, the functional device 4 can be of various types, including but not limited to lamps, fans 43, or speakers. The lamps can be designed as adjustable floodlights 45 or 360-degree work lights to meet different lighting needs. Taking the fan 43 as an example, its specific structure can include a base plug, a rod rotatably connected to the plug, and a fan blade connected to the end of the rod. The base plug is used to insert into the first power supply interface 3 of the housing 1 to achieve power supply and fixation. A motor is installed inside the base, driving the rod to rotate, thereby achieving multi-directional airflow from the fan 43. The lamps and fan 43 can also be equipped with telescopic rods, with the rod body adopting a multi-section sleeve design, which can be stretched or retracted as needed to adjust the usage height. By providing a variety of optional functional devices 4, this mobile workstation can cover a variety of common needs in outdoor operations. Users can freely combine them according to actual scenarios to achieve multi-purpose functionality, greatly expanding the product's application range. As an alternative, the functional device 4 can also include other types of tools, such as small projectors, warning lights 44, etc., as long as they adopt a unified interface design, they can be used with this workstation.
[0037] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative or explanatory of the principles of the invention and do not constitute a limitation thereof. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention should be included within the protection scope of the invention. Furthermore, the appended claims are intended to cover all variations and modifications falling within the scope and boundaries of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundaries.
