Embodiment
Fig. 3 is mobile computer 21 of the present invention and external connection module 22 synoptic diagram thereof.Wherein, the connection of mobile computer 21 of the present invention and external connection module 22, utilize the connector modules 222 on the external connection module 22 to be electrically connected with connectivity port 212 on the main frame 211, latch on the external body 221 223 inserts and is arranged on the main frame 211 with the formed coupling arrangement 213 of a slotted eye simultaneously, external connection module 22 is unlikely to rock in main frame 211 in order to strengthen fixedly.Wherein, connector modules 222 can with external body 221 relative rotations, make when external connection module 22 is connected with mobile computer 21 along same turning axle XX ' with latch 223, external body 221 can be the bending of an angle with mobile computer main frame 211, as shown in Figure 4.
Fig. 5 is the schematic internal view of external connection module 22 of the present invention.Wherein, connector modules 222 has same turning axle XX ' with latch 223, can rotate by simultaneously external relatively body 221, and Fig. 5 shows that external body 221 is one first angle with external connector module 222, and does not connect the state of mobile computer main frame.External connection module 22 comprises an external body 221, a connector module 222 and a pair of latch 223; Latch 223 is being articulated in external body 221 along the mode of a turning axle XX ' rotation, and simultaneously, the connector shell 270 of connector modules 222 also can be hubbed on the external body 221 along the mode of same turning axle XX ' rotation.
Wherein, the connector shell 270 of connector modules 222 forms a cavity 273, and has an opening 272 on the connector shell 270, when external connection module 22 is not connected with main frame as yet, register pin 251 in the connector modules 222 sees through first pilot hole 252 that the opening 272 on the connector shell 270 inserts on the external body 221, then external relatively body 221 fixing can't the rotations of connector modules 222.
As shown in Figure 6, the synoptic diagram that is connected with the mobile computer main frame for external connection module 22 (for the purpose of simplicity of illustration, omitting the mobile computer host machine part).Wherein, connection rod set 230 comprises: a first connecting rod 231, a second connecting rod 232 are " V " the font setting.When external connection module 22 is connected with the mobile computer main frame, for connector 240 is electrically connected with connectivity port on the main frame, then connector 240 and mobile computer main frame 211 butts make the connector slide bar 233,234 that is positioned at connector 240 both sides slide to connector shell 270; Therefore, first connecting rod 231 and second connecting rod 232 promote to rotate along as shown in Figure 5 a, the b direction of arrow respectively because of being subjected to connector slide bar 233,234, then register pin 251 is by first connecting rod 231 and second connecting rod 232 pullings, and in connector shell 270, slide, and break away from first pilot hole 252; And because register pin 251 and 240 distances of connector shorten, feasible being arranged between register pin 251 and the connector 240 as the spring of elastic component 260 is subjected to a compression force and is out of shape, and register pin 251 is maintained in the connector shell 270; At this moment, connector modules 222 can be with the latch 223 synchronous states that rotate.
And after external connection module 22 breaks away from the mobile computer main frame once again, connector slide bar 233,234 loses the contact effect, the force of compression that then acts on elastic component 260 disappears, elastic component 260 restores to the original state, drive register pin 251 and connector slide bar 233,234 and protrude from outside the connector shell 270, and register pin 251 can be located with pilot hole once again.Wherein, the setting of elastic component 260, be not limited to the mode of present embodiment, its mode that can reply connection rod set 230 actions and recovery register pin 251 positions and connector slide bar 233,234 positions is provided with, for example: elastic component 260 can be fixedly set in its first end on the connector 240 between register pin 251 and the connector 240, its second end can be connected in register pin 251, promptly can the above-mentioned action of start.
In the present embodiment, as the synoptic diagram of Fig. 7 for the external body of the present invention, show the bottom surface after external body 221 removes connector shell, on the external body 221, can be provided with first pilot hole 252 and second pilot hole 253 simultaneously, cooperate, when connector 240 is 0 degree or 90 degree angles with external body 221 relative rotations as Fig. 3 or shown in Figure 4, register pin in the connector modules can insert in the pilot hole, and the fixed connector module is not rotated.
According to the present invention, because connector modules and latch can be along same turning axles, rotate relative with external body, therefore, when external connection module is connected with the notes type main frame, connect body and can be the bending of an angle, and manifest mobile computer side and position all the other connectivity ports and the element thereon that is connected with connector modules and latch with the mobile computer main frame.
