전면부에 커버가 있는 통신 커넥터와 전원 커넥터가 마련된 컴퓨터{Computer with Communication Connector, Power Connector and Cover in Front Face}Computer with communication connector, power connector and cover in front face}

컴퓨터는 많은 기능이 있음에도 불구하고 아주 일부분만이 이용되고 있다. 특히 가정에 사용되는 개인용 컴퓨터는 게임에 많이 사용되며 아주 좋은 성능의 컴퓨터도 보다 복잡한 게임을 제대로 지원하지 못하면 고물 컴퓨터가 되어 버려지고고 만다.Although computers have many features, only a fraction of them are used. In particular, personal computers used in homes are used for games, and even very good computers become obsolete computers if they do not support more complex games.

컴퓨터는 게임 이외에도 많은 기능을 활용할 수 있다. 그 중 하나는 주변장치를 동작시키는 것이다. 이는 산업용으로 널리 쓰이고 있으나 가정에서 사용되는 경우는 거의 없다.Computers can take advantage of many other functions besides gaming. One of them is to operate peripherals. It is widely used for industrial purposes but is rarely used at home.

그러나 이러한 기능을 활용하고자 하면 통신용 커넥터에 접속하는 것이 문제가 된다. 특히, 컴퓨터의 구조에 익숙하지 못한 컴퓨터 이용자들에게는 컴퓨터 후면의 통신 커넥터에 접속을 한다는 것은 매우 어려운 일이다. 또한 후면의 커넥터에서는 전원을 획득하기가 어렵다.However, if you want to take advantage of these features, connecting to a communication connector is a problem. In particular, for computer users unfamiliar with the structure of the computer, connecting to the communication connector on the back of the computer is very difficult. It is also difficult to obtain power from the rear connector.

일반적인 컴퓨터의 구조를 보면 그 내부의 샤시에 다수의 베이를 갖는 메인보드가 장착되고 이 메인보드에 마련된 각각의베이에는 그래픽카드, 통신카드, 사운드카드 등 다수의 카드가 삽입 설치된다. 이 중에서 통신카드인 경우 외부의 케이블과 접속하기 위한 케이블 컨넥터 잭이 바깥쪽, 즉 컴퓨터 본체의 후방 측으로 마련되어 있어 여기에 전화선 등의 통신 케이블 접속구가 결합될 수 있게 하고 있다.In general, the structure of a computer is equipped with a motherboard having a plurality of bays in the chassis therein, each of the bays provided in the motherboard is installed a plurality of cards, such as a graphics card, communication card, sound card. Among them, in the case of a communication card, a cable connector jack for connecting with an external cable is provided on the outer side, that is, the rear side of the computer main body, so that communication cable connection ports such as telephone lines can be coupled thereto.

한편, 컴퓨터의 후방을 보면 종류와 길이가 다른 여러 종류의 케이블이 복잡하게 결선되고 있다. 이것은 마우스 케이블,키보드 케이블, 모니터 케이블, 나아가서는 스캐너, 프린터 등을 연결하는 케이블 등에 기인한다. 여기에 더불어 통신모뎀 등을 접속하기 위한 통신케이블과 음성을 입출력시키기 위한 사운드 케이블이 설치될 경우 그 복잡성은 더욱 증가된다.On the other hand, when looking at the rear of the computer, various types of cables having different types and lengths are complicatedly connected. This is due to a mouse cable, a keyboard cable, a monitor cable, and a cable connecting a scanner, a printer, and the like. In addition, the complexity is further increased when a communication cable for connecting a communication modem and the like and a sound cable for inputting / outputting voice are installed.

특히, 컴퓨터의 구조에 익숙하지 못한 컴퓨터 이용자들에게는 컴퓨터 후면의 커넥터를 접속시키는 것은 장애요소가 되므로, 컴퓨터에 의한 외부 장치 동작을 위한 통신 기능의 활용도가 떨어지게 된다.In particular, connecting the connector on the back of the computer is a barrier to computer users who are not familiar with the structure of the computer, the utilization of the communication function for the operation of the external device by the computer is reduced.

본 발명의 목적은 착탈식 컴퓨터 주변장치와 입출력를 하기 위해 컴퓨터 케이스의 전면패널 상에 커버가 있는 통신 커넥터와 전원 커넥터를 설치하여 컴퓨터 이용자가 복잡한 컴퓨터 후면에서 통신선을 연결하거나 전원을 공급하기 위해 고민하지 않고 컴퓨터 전면에서 주변장치를 착탈이 가능하도록 한 전면부에 커버가 있는 통신 커넥터와 전원 커넥터가 마련된 컴퓨터를제공하는 데 있다.An object of the present invention is to install a communication connector and a power connector with a cover on the front panel of the computer case for input and output to and from the removable computer peripheral device, so that the computer user does not have to worry about connecting a communication line or supplying power from the complex computer The present invention provides a computer provided with a communication connector and a power connector with a cover on a front surface thereof to enable detachment of peripheral devices from the front of the computer.

특히, 데스크 탑 컴퓨터 케이스의 전면패널 상에 통신 신호를 입출력하기 위한 커넥터와 전원 커넥터를 설치하여 컴퓨터 사용자가 컴퓨터를 이용한 주변 장치를 동작하기 위한 입출력을 하는 통신신호를 임의로 선택하여 이용할 수 있게 할 수 있다.In particular, by installing a connector and a power supply connector for input and output communication signals on the front panel of the desktop computer case, computer users can arbitrarily select and use the communication signals for input and output for operating the peripheral device using the computer. have.

Each of the terminals 14 and 16 is connected to a communication signal input / output terminal of a computer main board and a power source inside the main body. to be. In the connector cover 12, the power supply connector 14 is connected to a connector for supplying power to an external device to input and output, and the communication connector 16 is connected to a connector for transmitting and receiving a communication signal to be input and output. Therefore, when an external input / output device is connected to the corresponding connectors 14 and 16 and the external device is operated by the computer, the desired operation is performed by the computer by sending a communication signal along with the power supply.

한편, 본 실시예에서는 상기 커넥터 커버(12)의 위치가 본체 전면의 중앙부에 위치하였지만 실시예에 따라서 상기 커넥터 커버(12)의 위치는 달라질 수 있다.Meanwhile, in the present embodiment, the position of the connector cover 12 is located at the center of the front of the main body, but the position of the connector cover 12 may vary depending on the embodiment.

도 2는 본 고안의 일 실시예에 따른 전면에 커넥터 커버가 닫힌 상태의 컴퓨터본체구조의 다른 모습을 도시한 도면이다. 이와 같이 커넥터를 사용하지 않을 때에는 커버가 닫힌 상태가 되어 일반의 컴퓨터와 동일한 외관을 갖게 된다.2 is a view showing another embodiment of the computer body structure of the connector cover is closed on the front according to an embodiment of the present invention. As such, when the connector is not used, the cover is in a closed state and has the same appearance as a general computer.

이상, 본 고안을 구체적인 실시예를 통하여 상세하게 설명하였으나, 본 고안은 상기한 실시예에 한정되지 않고, 본 고안의 기술적 사상의 범위내에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자에 의하여 여러 가지 변형이 가능하다.The present invention has been described in detail through specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various modifications may be made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention. .

이와 같은 본 발명은 컴퓨터 이용자가 컴퓨터를 이용한 착탈식 주변 장치의 동작을 위해 복잡한 컴퓨터 후면에 연결하기 위해 노력할 필요가 없이 컴퓨터의 전면에서 손쉽게 착탈할 수 있고 사용하지 않는 경우에는 외관을 미려하게 하는 효과가 나타나게 된다.The present invention can be easily detached from the front of the computer without the need for a computer user to connect to the complex back of the computer for the operation of the removable peripheral device using the computer and the effect of beautiful appearance when not in use Will appear.

또한 후면에서는 획득할 수 없는 전원 공급도 가능하므로 주변 장치의 동작을 손쉽게 실행할 수 있는 효과가 나타나게 된다.In addition, the power supply that can not be obtained from the rear side, the effect of the operation of the peripheral device can be easily performed.
