Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of docking station technology, specifically to a multi-interface integrated device for electronic devices. Background Technology

[0002] As a multi-interface integrated device for electronic devices, the USB docking station integrates video output, data transmission, network connection and charging functions through a single USB-C interface. It relies on the main control chip to coordinate the operation of each module, combines power management chip to achieve efficient power supply, and supports parallel connection of multiple devices through signal conversion chip. Finally, it provides a one-stop peripheral expansion solution with a compact structure.

[0003] Common docking stations in the current technology usually lack protective structures at the outer shell interface. Dust and other debris can easily enter the interface when the docking station is not in use. The accumulation of debris over a long period of time can easily damage the interface and shorten the service life of the docking station. Secondly, the data cables at the fixed ends of the docking station lack a structure for organization. When the docking station is carried and stored, the data cables and connectors scattered on the outside of the docking station are more likely to collide or rub against the external environment, which can easily lead to wear and tear on the data cables and connectors. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The objective of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions: An integrated device for multiple interfaces of an electronic device includes a multi-port expansion dock. The multi-port expansion dock includes a housing. An interface is provided on one side of the outer surface of the housing. There are three interfaces in total. A protective mechanism is provided on the outer side of the multi-port expansion dock. The protective mechanism includes clamping blocks, of which three sets are provided. Each clamping block has a sliding groove on its inner surface, and each sliding groove extends toward the width of the top surface of the outer shell. A round shaft is inserted into and movably connected to the inner side of each sliding groove. A cover plate is rotatably connected between adjacent round shafts. The cover plate is L-shaped, and its lower end extends to the outer side of the nearby interface. The back and bottom surfaces of the cover plate abut against the surface of the outer shell, and the width of the cover plate is greater than the width of the interface. An insert plate is fixedly connected to the lower back of the cover plate, and the insert plate is parallel to the top surface of the cover plate.

[0005] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a support foot is fixedly connected to the top surface of the outer shell and below each interface, and a slot is provided on the front of each support foot. Magnets are glued and fixed to the middle and both sides of the rear end of the inner wall of the slot.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the inner width of the slot is the same as the outer wall width of the insert plate, and the inner wall of the slot is inserted into the insert plate, and each of the magnets is magnetically connected to the end face of the insert plate.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model: support legs 2 are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer shell directly behind each support leg 1, and the bottom surfaces of support legs 2 and support legs 1 are both bonded and fixed with anti-slip layers.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a data cable is fixedly installed in the middle of one side of the outer casing, and a connector is fixedly connected to the end of the data cable.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: a limiting ring is fixedly installed at one end of the back of the outer shell, and several gaskets are glued and fixed in the middle of the limiting ring, with each gasket arranged at equal intervals along the height direction of the limiting ring.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: the inner side of the limiting ring is inserted into the connector, the surface of the gasket abuts against the surface of the connector, and both the connector and the data cable are connected through the inside of the limiting ring.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. This utility model features a flip-up cover on the outside of the docking station interface. The cover protects and isolates the unused interface, preventing debris or water from entering the interface. When the interface needs to be used, the cover can be moved outward and rotated to expose the interface. The interface can then be used normally. Furthermore, clamping blocks are provided on both sides of each cover to limit its movement, thereby preventing the cover from separating from the docking station shell and being lost, thus improving the integrity of the docking station equipment.

[0012] The multi-port expansion dock has a limiting ring on its outer wall. When the expansion dock needs to be stored, the connector can be twisted vertically and passed through the inside of the limiting ring. Then, the connector can be loosened and pressed against the limiting ring. The silicone gasket inside the limiting ring prevents the connector from sliding into the inside of the limiting ring, thus constraining the data cable connected to the connector and preventing the data cable from becoming loose when the expansion dock is stored.

Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] like Figure 1-6 As shown, an electronic device with multiple interfaces includes a multi-port docking station 1. The multi-port docking station 1 includes a housing 101. Three interfaces 102 are provided on one side of the outer surface of the housing 101. The multi-port docking station 1 can be a CM473 or CM219 model. A protective mechanism 2 is provided on the outer side of the multi-port docking station 1. The protective mechanism 2 includes clamping blocks 201, with three sets of clamping blocks 201. Each clamping block 201 has a groove 202 on its inner surface, and each groove 202 faces the housing 1. 01 The top surface extends in the width direction, and each groove 202 has a round shaft 203 inserted and movably connected to its inner side. Adjacent round shafts 203 are rotatably connected to a cover plate 204. The cover plate 204 is L-shaped, with its lower end extending to the outer side of the adjacent interface 102. The back and bottom surfaces of the cover plate 204 abut against the surface of the outer shell 101, and the width of the cover plate 204 is greater than the width of the interface 102. A plug plate 205 is fixedly connected to the lower back surface of the cover plate 204. The plug plate 205 is parallel to the top surface of the cover plate 204. Figures 1-2 As shown, the cover plate 204 and the insert plate 205 are integrally formed and are both made of iron.

[0018] Support feet 206 are fixedly connected to the top surface of the outer casing 101, below each interface 102. Each support foot 206 has a slot 207 on its front. Magnets 208 are glued and fixed to the middle and both sides of the rear end of the inner wall of the slot 207. The inner width of the slot 207 is the same as the outer wall width of the insert plate 205, and the inner wall of the slot 207 is inserted into the insert plate 205. Each magnet 208 is magnetically connected to the end face of the insert plate 205. Figures 4-5As shown, magnet 208 can attract insert plate 205, thereby positioning insert plate 205 inside slot 207.

[0019] Support legs 209 are fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the outer casing 101, directly behind each support leg 206. Anti-slip layers 210 are adhesively fixed to the bottom surfaces of both support legs 209 and support legs 206. Figure 2 As shown, the anti-slip layer 210 is made of rubber, which can increase the friction of the bottom surface of the outer shell 101, thereby preventing the multi-port expansion dock 1 from easily sliding and shifting after being supported on the desktop.

[0020] A data cable 103 is fixedly installed on the middle of one side of the outer casing 101. A connector 104 is fixedly connected to the end of the data cable 103. A limit ring 105 is fixedly installed on one end of the back of the outer casing 101. Several gaskets 106 are bonded to the middle of the limit ring 105. Each gasket 106 is equidistantly arranged along the height direction of the limit ring 105. The inner side of the limit ring 105 is inserted into the connector 104. The surface of the gasket 106 abuts against the surface of the connector 104. Both the connector 104 and the data cable 103 are connected through the interior of the limit ring 105. Figure 6 As shown, the inner width of the limiting ring 105 is less than the height of the connector 104. The connector 104 must be placed vertically to be inserted into the limiting ring 105 and to compress the gasket 106 to pass through. The silicone gasket 106 reduces the actual inner width of the limiting ring 105, thus allowing it to pass through as shown. Figures 1-3 As shown, after the connector 104 passes through the limiting ring 105, the frictional resistance prevents the connector 104 from resetting and moving back to the inside of the limiting ring 105.

[0021] The working principle of this utility model: When the multi-port docking station 1 needs to be stored and carried, it can be done as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the connector 104 is longitudinally positioned against the back of the housing 101, and the connector 104 is pressed against the gasket 106 and passed through the inside of the limiting ring 105. Then the connector 104 is released. The connector 104 and the data cable 103 are limited by the limiting ring 105, thus being constrained to prevent loosening. The gasket 106 on the inside of the limiting ring 105 also abuts against the connector 104 to prevent the connector 104 from resetting and moving into the inside of the limiting ring 105.

[0022] Secondly, when each interface 102 needs to be used, the cover plate 204 can be pushed away from the interface 102. The round shaft 203 slides along the slide groove 202, the insert plate 205 separates from each magnet 208, and then comes out from the inside of the slot 207. Finally, the cover plate 204 is rotated upwards towards the outer shell 101, the cover plate 204 separates from the interface 102, and at this time the interface 102 is exposed to the external environment.

However, this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. All equivalent variations and improvements made within the scope of the claims of the present invention should still fall within the patent coverage of the present invention.
