It should be noted that the two protrusions 215 are disposed between the two heat dissipating bumps 220 and the two accommodating portions 212, so that the two pushing members 261 have a larger moment to push against the electronic device 100.
In addition, the docking station 200 is provided with an electronic expansion element (not shown) inside the docking station body 210, and the electronic expansion element can be electrically connected with the electronic device 100 and is used for electrically connecting other devices. It should be noted that the manner in which the electronic expansion element is disposed in the expansion seat body 210 is a known art in the art and is not a focus of the present application, so the details thereof are not described herein.
In order to more clearly describe the electronic device assembly 1000 of the present invention, the following description will be made in terms of the operation manner of detaching the electronic device 100 from the docking station 200 or mounting the electronic device 100 on the docking station 200, but the present invention is not limited to the operation manner carried by the embodiment.
As shown in fig. 9 and 10, when a user wants to dispose the electronic device 100 in the docking station 200, the user first engages the bottom engaging structure 213 of the docking station 200 through the engaging notch 112 of the electronic device 100, and then applies a force to the docking station 200, so that the two engaging portions 111 of the electronic device 100 are guided by the inclined surfaces 2421 of the two engaging structures 242, and the two engaging portions 111 of the electronic device 100 are smoothly engaged with the two engaging structures 242, and meanwhile, the two pushing members 261 are pressed by the electronic device 100 and partially sink into the corresponding protrusions 215 (the docking station through holes 216), so that the two auxiliary compression springs 262 are pressed.
Referring to fig. 11 and 12, when the user wants to detach the electronic device 100 from the docking station 200, the user can operate the operating element 230 with one hand, so that the operating element 230 rotates relative to the docking station body 210 to drive the two engaging elements 240, the two engaging elements 240 are no longer engaged with the two engaging portions 111 of the electronic device 100, the two compression springs 250 are compressed, and the two elastic deformation portions 2415 of the engaging piece 240 are elastically deformed, and at the same time, the elastic restoring force generated by the two auxiliary compression springs 262 under compression will make the two pushing members 261 protrude from the corresponding through holes 216 of the docking station, and the two pushing members 261 push against the bottom of the electronic device 100, so that at least a portion of the bottom of the electronic device 100 no longer abuts against the dock body 210. When the user does not operate the operating element 230 any more, the elastic restoring force generated by the two compressed springs 250 restores the operating element 230 and the two engaging members 240 to the positions where the operating element 230 is not operated, and the elastic deformation portion 2415 of the engaging member 240 deforms to restore to the state where the elastic deformation portion is not deformed.
In summary, in the electronic device set 1000 and the docking station 200 disclosed in the embodiments of the present invention, through the design that the two ends of the two compression springs 250 of the docking station 200 are respectively fixed to the operating element 230 and the docking station body 210, a user can operate the operating element 230 to make the two engaging elements 240 no longer engage with the two engaging portions 111 of the electronic device 100. Or, the operating element 230 is not operated any more, so that the elastic restoring force generated by the compression of the two compression springs 250 is restored, the operating element 230 is restored to the non-operated position, and the two engaging members 240 engage with the two engaging portions 111 of the electronic device 100. Accordingly, a user can quickly detach the electronic device 100 from the docking station 200 or install the electronic device on the docking station 200 by operating the operating member 230, so that the electronic device assembly 1000 of the present invention can achieve the effects of quick assembly and disassembly.
The disclosure is only a preferred embodiment of the invention and should not be taken as limiting the scope of the invention, so that the invention is not limited by the disclosure of the specification and drawings.
