Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of hub devices, specifically to a desktop hub. Background Technology
[0002] In modern society, with the advancement and development of technology, various electronic devices are used on desktops, especially in the banking sector. On the one hand, each counter is equipped with multiple electronic devices, most of which are located on the counter's desktop, occupying a large space and involving complex wiring, resulting in messy cables. Replacing and repairing equipment is complicated, and in many places, there are too many display devices, making operation cumbersome and causing inconvenience to staff. Furthermore, the excessive number of devices leads to a compression of the desktop operating area and an unreasonable layout, easily causing employee fatigue. On the other hand, with the widespread adoption of all-in-one computers, existing hubs, such as the desktop hub disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN 209300429 U and the hub structure disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent Publication No. CN 219513464 U, can no longer meet the needs of all-in-one computers for hiding various cables. This is because the wiring of all-in-one computers has moved from the separate host to behind the monitor, resulting in a large number of cables behind the monitor. Existing desktop hubs cannot effectively hide the cables behind the monitor, creating a cluttered visual experience for customers. Furthermore, the existing desktop hubs do not have adjustable cable management space, making it impossible to adjust them according to actual needs.
[0003] Furthermore, current desktop hubs for advertising screens are all installed using external brackets, which fails to showcase the product's integrated design. In the case of electronic advertising screens, the power input cables cannot be properly concealed. Therefore, there is a need to develop an integrated desktop hub compatible with both all-in-one and desktop computers. Utility Model Content

[0030] Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0031] like Figures 1-3As shown, the desktop hub of the first embodiment of this utility model includes a base 1, which has a hollow cavity for cable management. The base 1 has several cable-passing holes 101 for cables to pass through. The hollow cavity of the base 1 can accommodate cables passing through its bottom. A support rod 2 for mounting a monitor 13 is provided on the base 1. The monitor 13 is mounted on the support rod 2 via a support assembly 14, and the mounting height of the monitor 13 on the support rod 2 can be adjusted vertically according to actual usage. A front shell 3 is provided on the base 1, and a removable upper cover 4 is provided on the top of the front shell 3. The upper cover 4 has an opening 401 for the support rod 2 to pass through. A vertically movable lifting adjustment plate 5 is provided on the lower inner side of the front shell 3. An adjustable cable management cavity is formed between the upper cover 4, the front shell 3, and the lifting adjustment plate 5, allowing the cable bundles of the all-in-one computer to be organized and placed within the cable management cavity. The size of the cable management cavity can be adjusted according to the number and arrangement of the cable bundles. The lifting adjustment plate 5 is provided with a through hole 501 for the support rod 2 to pass through, and a channel 502 for cables to pass through is provided between the lifting adjustment plate 5 and the front shell 3. The lifting adjustment plate 5 can be adjusted by sliding to adjust the height of the monitor, thus preventing the monitor's cables from being exposed due to position adjustments.
[0032] According to the above scheme, the front shell 3 is equipped with a detachable baffle 6 and / or advertising screen 7, which can be interchanged and replaced as needed. For example, the baffle 6 and advertising screen 7 can be switched left and right to meet different usage scenarios; at the same time, the baffle 6 and advertising screen 7 can be replaced with each other, and two baffles 6 and two advertising screens 7 can coexist.
[0033] According to the above scheme, the front shell 3 includes a first side wall 301 and a second side wall 302, and the first side wall 301 and the second side wall 302 are arranged at an angle; the first side wall 301, the second side wall 302, the top cover 4 and the lifting adjustment plate 5 form a cable collection cavity with a triangular cross section.
[0034] According to the above scheme, the first side wall 301 and the second side wall 302 are provided with mounting grooves 303 for mounting the baffle 6 and / or the advertising screen 7; mounting guide grooves 304 are provided on both sides of the mounting groove 303, and the baffle 6 and / or the advertising screen 7 can be inserted into the mounting guide grooves 304 and detachably connected thereto.
[0035] According to the above scheme, the upper cover 4 and the front shell 3 are connected by magnetic attraction component 8. The upper cover 4 can also be positioned by the mounting guide groove 304 on the front shell 3. The magnetic attraction component 8 includes an iron sheet 801, an iron sheet screw 802, a magnet 803, and a magnet mounting post 804. The iron sheet 801 is installed at the bottom of the upper cover 4 by the iron sheet screw 802. The magnet 803 is installed inside the magnet mounting post 804, which is installed on the inner wall of the front shell 3. The upper cover 4 is connected to the front shell 3 by the attraction between the iron sheet 801 and the magnet 803. The magnet mounting post 804 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the front shell 3. In addition to its function of installing magnets, the magnet mounting post 804 also serves as a stroke adjustment baffle for the lifting adjustment plate 5, which can limit the upward movement of the lifting adjustment plate and prevent it from disengaging from the guide rail.
[0036] According to the above scheme, the inner walls of the front shell 3 are provided with mounting guide rails 9 for mounting the lifting adjustment plate 5. The outer wall of the lifting adjustment plate 5 is provided with a sliding groove 10 that mates with the mounting guide rail 9.

The paper screen 702 is placed between the mounting base 701 and the panel 703, and the mounting base and the panel are fixedly connected. In addition to the paper screen in this embodiment, the advertising screen can also be an electronic photo frame or an electronic display screen. The electronic photo frame or electronic display screen can be fixedly connected to the mounting base by screws, adhesives, or other means.
[0038] like Figures 4-6 As shown, the desktop hub of the second embodiment of this utility model differs from the first embodiment in that the base 1 includes an upper base plate and a bottom plate. The bottom plate has a flat structure. The cable is stored in the cable hub cavity formed between the upper cover 4, the front shell 3 and the lifting adjustment plate 5 through a channel 502 for the cable to pass through.
[0039] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model. It should be noted that any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. All other aspects not described in detail belong to the prior art.
