Description of the invention: [Technical field to which the invention pertains] The present invention relates to an auxiliary input device, and more particularly to an auxiliary connection of a pQyjciA expansion slot that is movably connected and stored in a 苇 brother type computer. Input device. [Prior Art], the demand for light, thin, short, and small notebook computers has been increasing. In order to meet this trend, the past operators used keyboard towels to input numbers. The button is shared with some of the English buttons to reduce the number of buttons, and the switching mode between the two is controlled by a "N-wire control. However, this design can save a lot of volume, but when the user is at the button In the English mode, if you need to enter a number, you must ride the "Num Μ" button to switch some of the original English mode buttons to digital mode _ state, and # to continue to lose English, the English key is still in the number In the mode, it is necessary to switch the two-handle-type buttons to the English mode through the "NumLaek" button. Such repeated switching actions are bound to cause inconvenience to the user. Straight door ^work solution f: kind of problem 'some operators use - external auxiliary keyboard (-ad) can be, fortunately ι二^子三 so that there is no need to repeatedly switch the mode through the "NumL〇ck" button, then ★ The secret is to use the purpose of the post and the number of people. However, the external auxiliary key money is still to be solved. The f is limited by its own size, and it is not easy to use with the notebook computer: it also carries the r note camphor and the auxiliary keyboard are two independent products, so that Also book hang (3) has the heart to carry the auxiliary keyboard. It is also inconvenient to carry such a screen switch or multimedia cover that controls the notebook computer. Therefore, in order to change the PCMCU expansion slot, the wire is used, and the (4) system is stored in the notebook computer. "---------1.

In the same assembly mode, the board m SI is set to the two parts. The button _n2 is disposed on the upper casing (1), and the surface of the button film 112 is designed to divide a plurality of button cores (such as numeric keys, symbol keys or confirmation keys, etc.), and the buttons 112a are combined with the circuit (4) 4 A plurality of key contacts 114a correspond to each other. In addition, the USB connection 120 is designed to be a movable type, which is achieved by opening a slit 111a on the surface of the upper casing 111 and opening an opening 111b on the side edge of the upper casing (1), and in the USB Connector! At the end of the 20, a pushing member 121 is designed. The pushing member (2) is limited to the slit 111a. The user can slide the sliding member 12 to slide the slit 11la and push the USB connection. The device 12〇 is pushed out of the input keyboard ιι〇. In addition, the preferred embodiment uses a flexible circuit board (FpcBA) 13 to connect the smart connector 120 to the circuit board m'. Even if the USB connector 12 is in a moving state, the circuit board 114 can be electrically turned on. ^ Next, please refer to "Figure 4 and Figure 5", the auxiliary input device of the present invention! (4) The length is about 82.50~83.5〇mm, the width is about 54.00, and the thickness is about 4 4 〇. The overall size is the same as the PCMCIA expansion slot u located on the side of the 1G of the notebook computer, but the user does not use the auxiliary input. When the device 100 is installed, it is housed in the PCMCIA expansion slot u. In other words, the present invention has a built-in network chip, so the PCMCIA expansion slot n of the original wire insertion p is often used, so the size is designed to The auxiliary input device (10) (4) expands the fairy towel in PCMCIA, and the convenience of shouting high. ^ Better implementation _ including female sewing _ Chang pcMciA (four) slot ^
