Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of computer technology, and in particular to a multi-functional expansion hub for computers. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of a hub is to regenerate, reshape, and amplify the received signals to extend the transmission distance of the network, while concentrating all nodes on a node centered around it.
[0003] When using a hub, the computer's data signal transmission lines need to be connected to the hub's ports. Existing hubs generally have ports located at both ends, making it difficult to meet the connection of data signal transmission lines from all directions. Furthermore, the angle of the connection cannot be adjusted. As a result, when connecting data signal lines, it cannot be guaranteed that each line is in the optimal connection state, which may lead to problems such as poor contact.
[0004] To address the problems of existing hubs being unable to meet the connection requirements of data signal transmission lines from all directions and the inability to adjust the connection angle leading to poor contact, a cylindrical multifunctional hub is designed. The connection ports of this hub are radially distributed, and the connection ports can be rotated to adjust the connection angle, thereby overcoming the aforementioned problems.

Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] Please see Figures 1-6 This utility model provides an embodiment of a multi-functional expansion hub for computers, including a main column 1, a support frame 2, and a connection port 3. It also includes a connecting plate 4, a rotating shaft 5, a threaded rod 6, a push rod 8, and a cloth sleeve 11. The upper and lower ends of the main column 1 are fixedly connected to the support frame 2, and the two support frames 2 are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 4. The connection port 3 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate 4 through the rotating shaft 5. The support frame 2 is provided with a threaded hole, and the threaded rod 6 is threadedly connected to the support frame 2. The support frame 2 is provided with a sliding groove, and the push rod 8 is slidably connected in the sliding groove of the support frame 2. The support frame 2 is covered with a cloth sleeve 11. The connecting plate 4, the rotating shaft 5, the threaded rod 6, and the push rod 8 constitute a rotating mechanism for adjusting the connection angle of the connection port 3.
[0025] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the upper end of the main column 1 is provided with a groove for storing the folded cloth cover 11. A magnet 17 is fixedly connected to the cloth cover 11. One end of the threaded rod 6 is fixedly connected to a rotating handle 7. The support frame 2 is provided with a cavity. The other end of the threaded rod 6 is located in the cavity. One end of the push rod 8 is an inclined surface. One end of the threaded rod 6 contacts the inclined surface of the push rod 8. The other end of the push rod 8 is fixedly connected to a rubber pad 9. A tension spring 10 is connected between the two push rods 8. The tension spring 10 is used to pull the push rod 8 back into the groove of the support frame 2.
[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, a pressure plate 13 is provided in the groove of the main column 1. A handle 14 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the pressure plate 13. The pressure plate 13 is used to press down the folded cloth cover 11. Magnets 12 are provided on both support frames 2. An opening is provided on the support frame 2 for the connection port 3 to rotate. A sliding rod 15 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the pressure plate 13. A sliding groove is provided at the lower end of the groove of the main column 1. The sliding rod 15 slides in the sliding groove of the main column 1. A tension spring 16 is connected between the lower end of the sliding rod 15 and the bottom surface of the sliding groove of the main column 1.
[0027] During use, the main column 1 serves as the main body of the support structure, and it contains terminals for connecting various connection ports 3. The connecting plate 4 serves as a rotating platform for the connection ports 3. The connection ports 3 rotate via the rotating shaft 5. After rotating to the required angle, the rotating handle 7 is turned. During the turning of the rotating handle 7, the threaded rod 6 continuously presses against the push rod 8. One end of the push rod 8 is inclined, so when the push rod 8 is pressed, it moves to both sides in the sliding groove within the support frame 2. The push rod 8 fixes the angle of the connection port 3 by pressing against it, thus achieving angle adjustment. The rubber pad 9 at one end of the push rod 8 ensures a tight fixation. To release the fixation, the threaded rod 6 is loosened, and the tension spring... Pull the push rod 8 back into the groove of the support frame 2. When the hub is not in use, pull the handle 14 upward to unfold the cloth sleeve 11 in the groove of the main column 1 and cover the hub. The magnet 17 on the cloth sleeve 11 connects the two cloth sleeves 11 together. The cloth sleeve 11 prevents external dust from entering the connection port 3. The pressure plate 13 is used to press the cloth sleeve 11 stored in the groove of the main column 1 to prevent the cloth sleeve 11 from falling out of the groove of the main column 1. The tension spring 16 is used to pull the slide rod 15 downward. The slide rod 15 slides in the groove of the main column 1, thereby providing tension for the pressure plate 13 to press the cloth sleeve 11. The magnet 12 is used to attract the hub to the desired position, thereby facilitating the installation and use of the hub.
[0028] Through the above steps, the connection ports 3 of the hub are set in various directions of the support frame 2, which facilitates the connection of signal transmission lines in various directions. The angle of the connection ports 3 can be adjusted as needed to ensure the stability of the signal transmission line connection. When not in use, the cloth cover 11 can be taken out from the groove of the main column 1 and unfolded to wrap the hub and prevent external dust from entering the connection ports 3 and affecting its use. When in use, the cloth cover 11 is folded and put into the groove of the main column 1, which is very convenient.
[0029] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
