Technical Field

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of peripheral auxiliary equipment for mobile intelligent terminals, and in particular, relates to an expansion dock for a handheld game console. Background Art

[0002] A docking station, also known as a port replicator, is an external device designed for laptops. By duplicating or even extending the ports of a laptop, it allows the laptop to be easily connected to multiple accessories or external devices (such as power adapters, network cables, mice, external keyboards, printers, and external monitors) in one place. Laptops of the same brand can usually use the same port replicator.

[0003] As docking station technology becomes increasingly popular, docking stations have gradually been applied to mobile smart terminals, such as smart phones, tablet computers, and handheld game consoles, which can all be set on the docking station and use the expansion interface on the docking station to realize data transmission or charging functions with different external devices.

[0004] In the prior art, a docking station generally has a terminal connector connected to a data port on a mobile smart terminal. However, different mobile smart terminals, such as handheld game consoles of different brands, such as a switch game console or a steamdeck game console, have different data port locations, which affects the placement of the terminals on the docking station and affects actual use. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the embodiments of the present application is to provide a docking station for a handheld game console to solve the technical problems of inconsistent terminal connector settings and low applicability of the docking station in the prior art for connecting to the data port of the handheld game console.

[0006] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted in the present application is: to provide an expansion dock for a handheld game console, including a base, on which are provided a plurality of expansion interfaces and terminal connectors for plugging into the data port of the handheld game console; the base has a backrest and a baffle with raised arrangements, and a positioning groove is formed between the backrest and the baffle to allow the handheld game console to be embedded; the base is also provided with a mounting hole located in the positioning groove, and the terminal connector is detachably arranged on the mounting hole.

[0040] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0041] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0042] It should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0043] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features.

[0044] Conventional docking stations are generally provided with terminal connectors, which are used to connect to the data port on the mobile smart terminal. At the same time, the way the terminal connector is plugged into the data port on the mobile smart terminal also determines the posture of the mobile smart terminal on the docking station, that is, the mobile smart terminal can be placed on the docking station horizontally or vertically.

[0045] In practical applications, such as handheld game consoles of different brands, Figure 1As shown, the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200a of the switch is arranged on one long side of the whole machine. Figure 2 As shown, the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200b of the steam deck is set on the other long side of the whole machine, so when the docking station meets the plug-in posture of the switch handheld game console 200a, the steam deck handheld game console 200b can only be reversed and set on the docking station. However, since the control units on the handheld game console 200, such as the joystick and button lights, are all set on both sides of the game console body, the position and direction of the joystick and buttons are fixed and cannot be changed due to the reversal of the whole machine. Therefore, when the handheld game console 200 is reversed and then set on the docking station, its control will be affected, resulting in inability to use.

[0046] It can be seen that the data ports on handheld game consoles of different brands are set in different positions, which changes the posture of the handheld game consoles on the docking station and affects the actual use.

[0047] Here, the embodiment of the present application provides a new expansion dock for a handheld game console, which can be used as a support base for users to place the handheld game console on the expansion dock so that the handheld game console can be set up for use. In particular, the terminal connector on the expansion dock is designed to be detachable, so as to adapt to the data port setting position on handheld game consoles of different brands, effectively solving the technical problems of inconsistent terminal connector settings and low applicability on traditional expansion docks, which are now described in detail.

[0048] Please also read Figure 3 and Figure 4 The expansion dock 100 includes a base 1, on which are disposed a plurality of expansion interfaces 11 and terminal connectors 2. The expansion interfaces 11 may include but are not limited to USB, TYPE-C, HDMI, DP, RJ45 and other interfaces. Each expansion interface 11 may include one or more interfaces disposed simultaneously on the base 1, and may be disposed according to the volume of the base 1 and the available space, and is not specifically limited here.

[0049] The terminal connector 2 is used to be plugged into the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200 so that the handheld game console 200 and the docking station 100 can be electrically connected.

[0050] Please also read Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5The upper end surface of the base 1 has a backrest 3 and a baffle 4 with raised projections, and the expansion interface 11 can be preferably arranged on the backrest 3. A positioning groove 12 for the handheld game console 200 to be inserted is formed between the backrest 3 and the baffle 4. In this embodiment, when the handheld game console 200 is placed in the positioning groove 12 of the base 1, the back of the handheld game console 200 can be against the backrest 3, so that the entire expansion dock 100 can be used as a support base for the handheld game console 200.

[0051] The base 1 is also provided with a mounting hole 13 located in the positioning groove 12 , and the terminal connector 2 is detachably arranged on the mounting hole 13 , and the cable 21 connecting the terminal connector 2 and the inside of the base 1 can be stored on the base 1 .

[0052] In this embodiment, the mounting hole 13 is located between the backrest 3 and the baffle 4, and the terminal connector 2 can be arranged on the mounting hole 13 according to the use requirements. Figure 6 As shown, when the handheld game console 200a is placed in the positioning groove 12, the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200 is plugged into the terminal connector 2 to achieve electrical connection. Figure 5 As shown, the mounting hole 13 on the base 1 may be preferably located on the central axis S of the base 1 and centrally disposed between the backrest 3 and the baffle 4. The handheld game console 200 can be centrally disposed on the docking station 100, thereby improving the stability of the handheld game console 200 when placed on the docking station 100.

[0053] Or, if Figure 7 As shown, when the handheld game console 200b is placed in the positioning groove 12, the terminal connector 2 can be taken out from the mounting hole 13, wrapped around the other side of the handheld game console 200, and connected to the data port 201 on the other side of the handheld game console 200 to achieve electrical connection.

[0054] Compared with the prior art, the expansion dock 100 for a handheld game console provided in the embodiment of the present application improves the setting method of the terminal connector 2 on the expansion dock 100. In view of the different setting positions of the data ports 201 on handheld game consoles of different brands, a detachable design of the terminal connector 2 is adopted, so that the terminal connector 2 can be detachably set on the expansion dock 100. Without changing the placement posture of the handheld game console 200 on the expansion dock 100, the installation connection between the terminal connector 2 and the data port 201 is achieved, thereby effectively improving the versatility of the expansion dock 100 and ensuring the uniformity of the handheld game console 200 set on the expansion dock 100.

[0055] As an example, Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, the terminal connector 2 can be set on the mounting hole 13 of the base 1, so that the handheld game console 200a of the switch is horizontally set between the baffle 4 and the backrest 3 on the expansion dock 100, and the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200a of the switch can be directly plugged into the terminal connector 2 set on the mounting hole 13 to achieve electrical connection.

[0056] In another example, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the handheld game console 200b of the steam deck can adopt the same posture as the handheld game console 200a of the switch mentioned above, and is horizontally set between the baffle 4 and the backrest 3 of the expansion dock 100. The terminal connector 2 on the expansion dock 100 can be taken out from the mounting hole 13 and wrapped around the other side of the steam deck handheld game console 200b to connect with its data port 201.

[0057] It can be seen that for the above-mentioned two handheld game consoles of different brands, although the setting positions of the data port 201 are different, the expansion dock 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a detachable terminal connector 2, which can be selectively set on the mounting hole 13 of the base 1 or removed from the mounting hole 13 for flexible connection according to the setting position of the data port 201 on the handheld game console, so that the two handheld game consoles of different brands can be horizontally set on the expansion dock 100 in the same posture, effectively avoiding affecting the button control of the handheld game console, facilitating use, and thereby improving the connection adaptability of the terminal connector 2 on the expansion dock 100.

[0058] Regarding the baffle plate 4 on the base 1, on the one hand, the baffle plate 4 and the backrest 3 are spaced apart to form a positioning groove 12, so as to position the handheld game console placed in the positioning groove 12. In particular, for the handheld game console 200b of the steam deck, Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, when the handheld game console 200b of the steam deck is horizontally arranged on the docking station 100, it cannot be fixed on the base 1 because it is not like the handheld game console 200a of the switch which can use the data port 201 on the bottom side to plug with the terminal connector 2 set on the mounting hole 13. The baffle 4 is used as a blocking member in front of the base 1 to block the handheld game console 200b of the steam deck, effectively preventing the handheld game console 200b of the steam deck from tipping over when it is horizontally arranged on the docking station 100.

[0059] On the other hand, Figure 3 and Figure 6As shown, for the handheld game console 200a of Switch, although the handheld game console 200a of Switch can be plugged into the terminal connector 2 provided on the mounting hole 13 by using the data port 201 on the long side of the bottom, so as to fix the whole on the docking station 100. However, in actual application, the handheld game console 200a of Switch is against the backrest 3, and the whole machine is inclined against the backrest 3. If there is no baffle 4 to stop and limit the tilt angle of the whole machine in front, the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200a of Switch and the terminal connector 2 provided on the mounting hole 13 will generate a lever-like shear force, causing the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200a of Switch to be easily pried open by the terminal connector 2 and damaged. Here, the baffle 4 on the base 1 plays a good limiting role here, effectively limiting the tilt angle of the switch handheld game console 200a placed on the expansion dock 100, thereby preventing the data port 201 on the switch handheld game console 200a from being easily pried up by the terminal connector 2 set on the mounting hole 13, thereby extending the service life of the handheld game console.

[0060] In actual application, since the terminal connector 2 and the base 1 are connected by wire, there is a cable 21 connecting the terminal connector 2 and the base 1. When the terminal connector 2 is set in the mounting hole 13 of the base 1, the cable 21 needs to be stored to avoid affecting the use.

[0061] Here, in one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.10 A boss 5 is provided at the bottom of the base 1, and the boss 5 is used for winding and storing the cable 21 connecting the terminal connector 2 with the inside of the base 1, so that the cable 21 is stored on the base 1 to avoid interference with use.

[0062] Specifically, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the boss 5 has a flange 51 arranged around the outer periphery of the boss 5, and the flange 51 is protruded on the outer periphery of the boss 5 so that the flange 51 of the boss 5 is spaced from the bottom of the base 1 to form a circle of winding grooves 50 for the cable 21 to be embedded, and the winding grooves 50 are connected to the mounting holes 13 on the base 1.

[0063] In this way, the cable 21 connected to the terminal connector 2 and the base 1 can be embedded in the winding groove 50 for storage, avoiding interference with the outside. Fig.10 As shown, the terminal connector 2 can be twisted up and pulled out along the winding groove 50 together with the cable 21, and then the terminal connector 2 can be connected to the data port 201 on the other side of the handheld game console 200. Fig. 9As shown, the cable 21 can be wound around the boss 5 along the winding groove 50 , and the terminal fitting 2 can be put back into the mounting hole 13 .

[0064] Based on the above, please refer to Fig. 9 The bottom of the base 1 has a surrounding frame 14 arranged around the outer periphery of the boss 5, and the surrounding frame 14 and the convex edge 51 of the boss 5 are spaced apart to form the above-mentioned winding groove 50.

[0065] In this way, a frame 14 is set at the bottom of the base 1, so that the frame 14 surrounds the outer edge of the bottom of the base 1 and forms a storage space at the bottom of the base 1. The boss 5 is located in the storage space, and a flange 51 on the outer periphery of the boss 5 is spaced apart from the frame 14 to form a winding groove 50, so that the depth of the winding groove 50 is deeper, which is conducive to storing the cable 21.

[0066] Preferably, if Fig. 9 As shown, the inner wall of the frame 14 has a guiding slope 141 that gradually inclines toward the bottom of the winding groove 50, so that when the cable 21 is wound along the winding groove 50 on the boss 5, the cable 21 can automatically gather at the bottom of the winding groove 50, thereby effectively improving the fixing effect of the cable 21.

[0067] In another embodiment of the present application (not shown), a winding groove 50 arranged around the outer periphery of the boss 5 may also be processed and opened on the outer periphery of the boss 5, and the winding groove 50 is connected to the mounting hole 13 on the base 1. The cable 21 connecting the terminal connector 2 to the inside of the base 1 can be wound on the boss 5 by being embedded in the winding groove 50, which also plays a role in storing the cable 21.

[0068] In practical applications, since the terminal connector 2 is embedded in the mounting hole 13 , the operation of disassembling and assembling the terminal connector 2 is likely to cause inconvenience, affecting the operating experience.

[0069] Here, in the embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 8 and Fig. 9 The terminal connector 2 is provided with an operating cap 22 for manual removal, and the operating cap 22 is protruding on the terminal connector 2, so that the entire terminal connector 2 can be easily removed from the mounting hole 13 by hand through the operating cap 22. When storing, the terminal connector 2 can also be put back into the mounting hole 13 by pinching the operating cap 22.

[0070] It can be seen that this structure is simple and allows users to assemble and disassemble the terminal connector 2 by hand without the help of auxiliary tools, which is convenient to use and effectively improves user experience.

[0071] Preferably, if Figure 8 and Fig. 9As shown, the boss 5 of the base 1 has a notch 52 corresponding to the position of the mounting hole 13 . When the terminal connector 2 is installed on the mounting hole 13 of the base 1 , the operating cap 22 on the terminal connector 2 is exposed from the notch 52 of the boss 5 .

[0072] In this way, a person's fingers can be inserted into and pinch the operating cap 22 on the terminal connector 2 through the notch 52 on the boss 5, and the entire terminal connector 2 can be conveniently removed from the mounting hole 13 of the base 1 by hand without auxiliary tools.

[0073] For the installation structure of the terminal connector 2 and the installation hole 13, in one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Fig.11 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 The mounting hole 13 on the expansion dock 100 is set through the upper and lower end surfaces of the base 1, and the terminal connector 2 is inserted into the mounting hole 13 from the bottom of the base 1 and protrudes from the top surface of the base 1, so that the cable 21 on the terminal connector 2 can be wrapped around the boss 5.

[0074] The base 1 is also provided with a stopper 15 protruding from the mounting hole 13 , and the terminal connector 2 is provided with a stopper 23 corresponding to the position of the stopper 15 , and the stopper 23 stops against the stopper 15 .

[0075] In this way, during the storage operation of the terminal connector 2, the pulled-out cable 21 can be wound around the boss 5 along the winding groove 50 at the bottom of the base 1, and the terminal connector 2 can be inserted into the mounting hole 13 from the bottom of the base 1 until the abutment block 23 on the terminal connector 2 abuts against the limiter 15 in the mounting hole 13, so that the terminal connector 2 is stored in the mounting hole 13 and the plug-in end of the terminal connector 2 is exposed from the mounting hole 13 to the top surface of the base 1 so as to be plugged into the data port 201 of the handheld game console 200 placed on the expansion dock 100.

[0076] In addition to the above, please also refer to Fig.12 and Fig.13 The two sides of the terminal connector 2 are also provided with slide grooves 24, and the abutment block 23 is arranged in the slide grooves 24. The limiting member 15 in the mounting hole 13 can be embedded in the slide grooves 24 and can move along the slide grooves 24 until it abuts against the abutment block 23. In this way, the slide grooves 24 on both sides of the terminal connector 2 play a guiding role, which is conducive to preventing the terminal connector 2 from falling out from the top surface of the mounting hole 13.

[0077] Preferably, if Fig.13 As shown, the two side blocks 23 of the terminal connector 2 are also provided with magnetic attracting members 231. Accordingly, the stopper 15 is preferably a magnetic member such as a magnet, or a metal member such as iron, which can be magnetically attracted to the magnetic attracting member 231 on the stopper 23; or, a magnet or a metal member can be provided inside the stopper 15.

[0078] In this way, the two side blocks 23 of the terminal connector 2 can be magnetically attracted to the limiting pieces 15 in the mounting hole 13 so that the terminal connector 2 can be installed in place. This helps prevent the terminal connector 2 from being pushed out by the thrust of the handheld game console 200 when it is plugged into the data port 201 on the handheld game console 200 on the mounting hole 13, thereby effectively improving the fixing effect of the terminal connector 2.

[0079] For the structure on the base 1, in one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Fig.14 The backrest 3 of the base 1 is preferably provided with an anti-skid rib 31 for the handheld game console 200 to resist, and the anti-skid rib 31 is protruded in the direction where the baffle 4 is located.

[0080] In this embodiment, the anti-skid rib 31 is a convex rib on the backrest 3 facing the baffle 4, and the convex rib is in a strip structure to increase the contact area with the back of the handheld game console 200. The anti-skid rib 31 can be preferably made of silicone material, and the damping properties of the silicone material are used to effectively improve the anti-skid effect.

[0081] In other embodiments (not shown), the anti-skid ribs 31 may also be a plurality of small ribs on the backrest 3, or a plurality of granular protrusions, thereby forming an anti-skid abutment surface that can contact the handheld game console 200, which also has an anti-skid effect.

[0082] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
