[0002] With the proliferation of electronic products such as smartphones, tablets, and laptops, users' need for simultaneous use of multiple devices and multifunctional expansion is constantly increasing. Expansion devices for electronic products have therefore emerged. Common forms include multifunctional power outlets, data docking stations, interface adapters, and so on. They primarily serve to provide electronic products with additional power or interface expansion and are frequently used accessories in everyday office and home use.

[0003] Current state-of-the-art expansion devices for electronic products exhibit significant shortcomings. These devices typically have only a single type of connector and can only fulfill one requirement, such as power supply, data transmission, or audio / video transmission. They cannot simultaneously adapt to various user connection scenarios and require the combination of multiple expansion devices for multitasking, which is cumbersome and increases operating costs. While some expansion devices may offer a small number of different connectors, their limited number and arrangement make it difficult to meet the need for simultaneous connection of multiple devices. This results in poor overall practicality and prevents them from meeting user requirements for efficient and convenient operation. CONTENTS OF THE PRESENT USE SAMPLE

Therefore, the position relationship terms described in the drawings serve only as examples and are not to be understood as a limitation of the utility model.For the expert in the relevant field, the specific meaning of the above-mentioned terms can be understood depending on the specific situation.

[0020] According to the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 5, Fig. 6 to Fig. Figure 7 shows a preferred embodiment of the present utility model.

[0021] The present utility model provides an extension device for electronic products, comprising a main body 10, wherein a connection head 20 is provided on the main body 10, the connection head 20 serving as the first connection, and wherein a second connection 30 is further provided on the main body 10. The present extension device for electronic products can be configured as an extension device such as a power strip, a docking station, an upright docking station, a supporting docking station, etc.

[0022] The expansion device for electronic products provided by the present utility model, realized by the connection head 20 as the first connection in conjunction with the second connection 30 on the main body 10, allows various electronic products and external devices to be directly connected without additional adapter components, thus facilitating the quick connection or power supply of multiple devices for the user. Simultaneously, the design of the second connection 30 of various types can meet different usage requirements for electronic products, such as power supply, data transmission, audio / video transmission, and bidirectional signal transmission (e.g., bidirectional transmission of electrical signals, bidirectional transmission of data).This effectively solves the problem of the simple output function and limited adaptation scenarios of existing expansion devices, significantly increasing usability and practicality.

[0023] In this embodiment, the connection head 20 is a plug that can establish a direct connection with an external power outlet, while the second connection 30 comprises a power socket, i.e., a plug socket. In this way, the present device serves as a power strip that expands the number of power sockets and enables the power supply of multiple devices.

[0024] In the main body 10 a power supply board is provided, wherein the power supply board is electrically connected to the connection head 20 (i.e. first connection) and the second connection 30 and serves to implement the power supply control and circuit protection.

[0025] In the present embodiment, the connector head 20 can be a Type-C connector, a USB connector, etc., which can be directly connected to electronic devices. The second connector 30 comprises a functional interface, i.e., a socket, wherein the functional interface is one or more of the following: a power supply interface, a data transmission interface, or an audio / video interface. Thus, the device is used as a docking station, thereby overcoming the disadvantage of the one-sided output function of conventional devices. It can simultaneously meet the requirements for power supply, data exchange, audio and video transmission, and bidirectional signal transmission (e.g., bidirectional transmission of electrical signals, bidirectional transmission of data) of electronic products without the need for multiple expansion devices.This reduces usage costs and adapts to different application scenarios such as office work and entertainment.

[0026] A control board is integrated into the main body, electrically connected to the connector head 20 (i.e., the first connector) and the respective function interfaces. It receives signals and power from the connector head 20 and enables unified control, signal conversion, and power distribution of the function interfaces. This ensures a stable power supply, smooth data transfer, and clear audio / video signals. Simultaneously, resource allocation can be intelligently adapted to the workload of the various function interfaces, further enhancing the device's adaptability and user experience.

[0027] In the present embodiment, the main body 10 comprises a base body 100. The base body 100 serves to place the device stably on a support to ensure safety and ease of use.

[0028] A second connection 30 is provided on the base body 100.

[0029] In the present embodiment, the main body 10 further comprises a mounting module 110, the underside of which is connected to the base body 100, with the second connection 30 being located on the mounting module 110. By dividing the main body 10 into the combination of the base body 100 and the mounting module 110, the base body 100 serves to provide a stable base for the entire main body 10. The design of the mounting module 110 can be flexibly adapted to the usage requirements, thus better adapting the structure of the device to real-world application scenarios.

[0030] Several foot pads 101 are attached to the underside of the base body 100. This ensures further stabilization of the placement.

[0031] In the present embodiment, a swivel plate 120 is movably connected to the top of the base body 100, the bottom of the swivel plate 120 being movably connected to the base body 100, and a support plate 130 being movably connected to the top of the swivel plate 120, the rear of the support plate 130 being movably connected to the swivel plate 120, and the front of the swivel plate 120 forming a support surface for receiving an electronic device. By arranging the interconnected structure consisting of the swivel plate 120 and the support plate 130 on the top of the base body 100, an adjustable support surface for electronic devices can be formed, which supports different sizes and various positioning angles of electronic products (such as monitors, tablet PCs).This enables the integration of extension devices and support functions without the need for additional brackets, saving space and increasing the multifunctionality of the device.

[0032] In the present embodiment, a downwardly recessed receiving groove 102 is formed on the top of the base body 100, with the receiving groove 102 extending through both sides of the base body 100. This allows the base or connecting cables of electronic products to be received and secured, and the monitor base to be clamped to prevent cable entanglement. At the same time, the continuous design of the receiving groove 102 allows the cables to be routed freely from both sides, which supports different table layouts and usage patterns and increases the flexibility of the device.

[0033] Several downwardly recessed locking slots 103 are arranged at the bottom of the receiving channel 102, the several locking slots 103 being arranged at intervals to each other along the width direction of the receiving channel 102.

[0034] The foregoing are merely preferred embodiments of the utility model and are not intended to limit its scope. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements that remain within the framework of the concept and fundamental principle of the utility model shall be included within the scope of protection of the utility model.
