Description

Extended base
Technical field
The invention relates to a kind of extended base (docking station), and particularly relevant for a kind of extended base that is assembled to an electronic installation (electronic apparatus).
Background technology
The difference of portable computer and traditional desktop computer maximum is that portable computer is stressed compact, the user of computer can be easy to carry about with one, and provide the user to carry out the convenience of computation under various working environments.Yet with regard to other one side, portable computer also is subject to its compact designing requirement, and its function and extendibility also can not be mentioned in the same breath with the desktop computer with bigger utilization space.
In view of this, prior art proposes a kind of extended base.The user can with such as mouse, printer, external connected hand disk, network interface unit (network interface card, NIC) or the peripheral equipment of computer such as scanner therewith extended base connect for a long time.When the user need use these peripheral equipments, the user only needed the connector that is positioned at the main frame below of portable computer is engaged with the connector of extended base, just portable computer can be electrically connected at these peripheral equipments.Thus, the user not only can enjoy the lightness of portable computer, more can make the user can exempt the puzzlement of portable computer being carried out the plug of peripheral equipment, and enjoy functional and extendibility simultaneously as desktop computer by extended base.
Yet when portable computer will be separated extended base, the user must separate the connector of the extended base of prior art with the connector that is positioned at the main frame below of portable computer arduously, and causes user's inconvenience.Therefore, the extended base of prior art has improved necessity in fact.
Summary of the invention
The invention provides a kind of extended base, the user can separate extended base with electronic installation easily.
The present invention proposes a kind of extended base, is suitable for detachably being assembled to an electronic installation with one first clamping part (locking portion).Extended base comprises a housing (casing), a gripping member (holdelement), one first moving member (removable element), one second moving member, a driven member (drivenelement), one first elastic component (elastic element) and one second elastic component.Housing has one first opening (opening) and one second opening.Gripping member is pivoted to (pivotally connected to) housing and has leader (handle), one first Actuator Division (operating portion) and one second Actuator Division.Gripping member is suitable for rotating between one first critical localisation (critical position) and one second critical localisation, and the part handle is exposed to outside the housing.
First moving member is suitable for moving along an axis (axis), and has one and be disposed at second clamping part that first body and in the housing is disposed at first body.Second clamping part passes first opening.Second moving member is suitable for moving and being disposed in the housing along above-mentioned axis.Second moving member has the 3rd Actuator Division that one second body and is disposed at second body.The 3rd Actuator Division has the 3rd clamping part that a lifting face (elevating surface), an end face (top surface) and are disposed at end face.
Driven member is pivoted to housing and has an ejection part (pushing portion) and one the 4th clamping part.First elastic component connects first body and housing, and is disposed in the housing.Second elastic component connects second body and housing, and is disposed in the housing.When gripping member was positioned at first critical localisation, second clamping part was suitable for buckle first clamping part, and driven member is positioned at housing.
When gripping member was positioned at second critical localisation, (interfere with) first body was interfered in first Actuator Division, and second clamping part is buckle first clamping part not, and first elastic component produces elastic deformation.At this moment, second body is interfered in second Actuator Division, the 3rd clamping part buckle the 4th clamping part, and ejection part passes second opening with the ejection electronic installation, and second elastic component produces elastic deformation.
In one embodiment of this invention, above-mentioned gripping member is more suitable for rotating between first critical localisation and an intermediary position (intermediate position).The intermediary position is between first critical localisation and second critical localisation.When gripping member was positioned at the intermediary position, first body was interfered in first Actuator Division, and second clamping part is buckle first clamping part not, and first elastic component produces elastic deformation, and not ejection of ejection part electronic installation.In addition, gripping member by the intermediary position turn to second critical localisation during, second body is interfered in second Actuator Division, the 4th clamping part is interfered in the 3rd Actuator Division, driven member rotates, and the 4th clamping part moves (move) with respect to lifting face.
In one embodiment of this invention, above-mentioned lifting face can be a cambered surface (arc surface) or an inclined-plane (slope).
In one embodiment of this invention, the first above-mentioned clamping part can be a hole clipping (1ocking hole), and second clamping part can be a trip (1ocking hook).
In one embodiment of this invention, the 3rd above-mentioned clamping part can be a projection (protrusion), and the 4th clamping part can be a projection.
In one embodiment of this invention, the first above-mentioned elastic component can be a spring.
In one embodiment of this invention, the second above-mentioned elastic component can be a spring.
In sum, because when the gripping member of embodiments of the invention is positioned at second critical localisation, these second clamping parts of first moving member are these first clamping parts of buckle electronic installation not, and the ejection part of each driven member passes the second corresponding opening with the ejection electronic installation, so the user can separate extended base with electronic installation comparatively easily.
