[0002] Internet cafes, as commercial e-sports and leisure entertainment venues, often have computers used by many different people, especially their headphones, keyboards, and mice. However, most internet cafes, focused on maximizing profits, don't regularly clean these devices. Therefore, some users bring their own headphones, keyboards, and mice as peripherals. These external devices typically connect to the computer via a USB port on the desktop switch. Because different peripherals have slightly different interfaces, and different users apply varying degrees of force when plugging and unplugging, the USB ports on internet cafe desktop switches have a high failure rate. Currently, the USB ports on existing desktop switches are fixed to the internal control circuit board. Repairing or replacing them requires removing the entire desktop switch from the computer, then disassembling the switch to expose the USB port on the internal control circuit board.

[0029] Further, referring to Figures 3 to 5, the USB component 2 includes an operating member 21 and a first circuit board 22. The operating member 21 is slidably disposed on the housing 1. Specifically, the housing 1 also includes a sliding groove 13, in which the side of the operating member 21 is accommodated to facilitate the reciprocating sliding of the operating member 21. The operating member 21 is connected to the first circuit board 22 to drive the first circuit board 22 to slide. The first circuit board 22 is provided with a USB interface 23 for connecting peripherals, and the USB interface 23 protrudes from the operating member 21. The USB interface 23 includes a TYPE-A interface 231 and a TYPE-C interface 232.
[0030] Specifically, referring to Figures 3 and 4, the end of the operating member 21 facing the first circuit board 22 is provided with a positioning post 211, and the end face of the first circuit board 22 facing the operating member 21 is provided with positioning holes 221 that cooperate with the positioning post 211. In this embodiment, there are four positioning posts 211, which are located at the four corners of the operating member 21. Correspondingly, there are also four positioning holes 221, which are located at the four corners of the first circuit board 22. This arrangement facilitates more accurate positioning of both the operating member 21 and the first circuit board 22.
[0031] In addition, to improve reliability, the end of the operating member 21 facing the first circuit board 22 is provided with a connecting post 212, and the end face of the first circuit board 22 facing the operating member 21 is provided with a connecting hole 222.

Specifically, the first connection pin 41 is pluggably connected to the first circuit board 22 of USB component 2. The second connection pin 42 is fixedly soldered to the control circuit board 31 of control component 3.
[0035] The following is a description of the working principle of the internet cafe computer desktop switch 100 provided by this utility model. When it is necessary to replace the USB component, first remove the fixing screws between the operating part 21 and the housing 1, and then push the operating part 21 away from the housing 1 to drive the first circuit board 22 of the USB component 2 to gradually separate from the second connecting pin 42. After the first circuit board 22 and the second connecting pin 42 are completely separated, continue to push the operating part 21 until the USB component 2 completely slides out of the slide groove 13 of the housing 1. At this time, the new USB component 2 can be pushed into the slide groove 13 of the housing 1 and the second connecting pin 42 can be connected to the first circuit board 22 of the newly replaced USB component 2. After the USB component 2 is completely pushed into the slide groove 13, tighten the fixing screws to fix the operating part 21 and the housing 1. At this time, the replacement of the USB component 2 is completed.
[0036] Compared with the prior art, the internet cafe computer desktop switch 100 provided by this utility model has a control component 3 for electrical connection with the internet cafe computer set in the housing 1, and a USB component 2 for connecting peripherals and detachably connected to the housing 1 set on the housing 1. A connector 4 is set between the USB component 2 and the control component 3 so that the USB component 2 can be detachably electrically connected to the control component 3. Therefore, when the USB component 2 of the internet cafe computer desktop switch 100 provided by this utility model needs to be repaired or replaced, it can be easily separated from the control component 3 as a whole, and the disassembly and assembly time is short, thereby improving the internet experience of internet cafe users.
[0037] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
