Description

  The present invention pays attention to the standby power of TVs, OA devices, personal computers and their peripheral devices, and wastes power. Considering the procedure for human operation, these devices are turned on. -It relates to a product that encourages customary power saving by devising the shape of the switch part so that it can be easily turned off at hand.

  The idea for power saving of standby power of household appliances and personal computer peripherals has been in the past. For example, there is a hand switch for home appliances, and there is a switch at the tip of a cord extended from a plug outlet into which a power plug is inserted so that the power can be turned on / off. In addition, many stand-by power saving supplies for personal computers have been commercialized with power saving switches on table taps.

  With regard to conventional power-saving hand switches, it is especially intended for single home appliances such as televisions, and since there is only one switch at the end of the cord, there are peripheral devices such as printers such as personal computers. These are not suitable for use. In addition, the shape of the switch portion is small and often cylindrical, and when it is placed on a television or a desk, it easily rolls and falls.

  In addition, there are many relatively large table taps equipped with power saving switches, so they are not suitable for placing on a TV or other devices. In some cases, the work space will be reduced, and many will have to be placed on the floor, and eventually the power-saving switch cannot be pushed easily. If placed on the desk, the cords connected to the plugs plugged into the power outlets of the peripheral devices are concentrated around the personal computer on the desk, obstructing the work space of the personal computer.

  In the present invention, the switch portion and the corresponding plug outlet portion are duplexed so that the power source of the television, video, OA device, personal computer and peripheral device can be operated at a time. Depending on the case, it is possible to respond to turning on / off of a plurality of peripheral devices as a triple or quadruple.

  Many table taps equipped with a power saving switch are arranged side by side in the plug part of the power plug, but in the present invention, the socket part of the plug outlet into which the power plug is inserted and the switch part are made independent, and the switch part. By extending the cable with a cord, in the PC and its peripherals, the cord is gathered at the bottom of the desk, but by bringing the switch to the desk, the space on the desk is not lost, and it is at hand. A power switch can be easily turned on and off with a switch.

  According to the present invention, power on / off of personal computers and peripheral devices used in homes and many offices, such as televisions and videos, with extremely high standby power, is controlled by the power switch of the mouse stand at hand. It can be easily operated, and standby power can be saved on a customary basis.

  By devising an unprecedented mouse stand, we can expect the effect of customizing and organizing the computer desk.

  In the present invention, a remote control is generally attached to televisions, office automation equipment, etc., and a personal computer is focused on the presence of a mouse that is indispensable for operation, and a stand for storing these is used. By applying a power-saving hand switch, the power can be turned on and off in a customary manner, and the power-saving effect can be maximized. Next, the form is demonstrated based on figures.

  1 shows a stand portion on which a remote controller and a mouse of a personal computer are placed. When the remote control and the mouse are not used, they are stored in the two concave portions. As a result, the place where the remote controller and the mouse are placed is not determined, so that the desk or the like that has been messed up is organized. In addition, it is desirable to put weights, such as iron, in the bottom part so that 1 may give a certain amount of weight.

  Reference numerals 3 and 4 are seesaw type power switches provided in the stand main body. Operate power supplies for home appliances such as TVs, PCs, and printers. By using triple or quadruple, it becomes possible to operate the power supply of other peripheral devices.

  6 is a socket part main body, and 9 is inserted in the outlet used as a power supply. 7 and 8 are plugged into a TV, video, personal computer main body, and printer to supply electricity to each device. The electrical supply of the plugs inserted into 7 and 8 is cut off by the switches 3 and 4.

  Reference numeral 5 denotes an electric cord connecting the power switch provided in one mouse stand and the socket portion of 6, and the length is arbitrary.

  It is the whole figure of the stand main body and socket part provided with the power switch, and the cord which connects it.

Claims (1)

  In order to effectively save standby power of TVs and OA devices, and personal computers and peripheral devices that are rapidly spreading in homes and offices, the power can be turned on and off at hand. A power-saving power switch equipped with a stand that can hold a remote control for home appliances and a PC mouse.
