Embodiment

See also shown in Figure 2, schematic perspective view before the utility model expanding device and the portable electron device assembling, in the utility model one preferred embodiment, this expanding device comprises: an apparatus for transmitting signal 10, arrange in pairs or groups on a housing 11, this housing 11 has an accommodation space 110, and this accommodation space 110 has an opening in the one side of this housing 11, and in the relevant binding port of the one side configuration of non-opening (figure does not show), as USB (universal serial bus) (USB, Universal SerialBus), printer port (LPT port, Line PrinTer port), PORT COM (COM port) or personal computer second-generation system (PS/2, Personal System/2) etc.These housing 11 ostiolate adjacent side have a card selection structure 12, this card selection structure 12 presents the form of a L type, its axle center is articulated in this housing 11, wherein an end of this card selection structure 12 further articulates the release handle 120 with a buckle assembly 121, and the other end then rotates in this accommodation space 110; One display device 30 as LCD, has a display panel 300, and these display device 30 electrically connects are to aforementioned apparatus for transmitting signal 10, to show the signal that is received via this apparatus for transmitting signal 10.

Please continue to consult Fig. 2, one portable electron device 20 (as notebook computer), can be placed in the accommodation space 110 of this housing 11, and with this apparatus for transmitting signal 10 electric connection be arranged, this buckle assembly 121 also will be fastened on a groove 210 of arranging in pairs or groups in this portable electron device 20 this moment.So, when the signal of exporting when this portable electron device is passed to display device 30 or other output unit, can avoid portable electron device 20 to skid off this accommodation space 110.

See also Fig. 3, Fig. 4 and shown in Figure 5, front schematic view after Fig. 3 the utility model housing and the portable electron device assembling, perspective diagram in Fig. 4 the utility model housing and the portable electron device assembling, the perspective diagram after Fig. 5 the utility model housing and portable electron device assembling are finished.The accommodation space 110 of this housing 11 has the guide rail 111 of two long strip types, in order to reduce a plurality of rubber mats 200 of these portable electron device 20 bottom surfaces, the friction force that is produced when portable electron device 20 pushes accommodation space 110.Therefore, when the user pushes accommodation space 110 with portable electron device 20, will form the unsettled form of this rubber mat 200 because of this guide rail 111.Wherein, the form of this guide rail 111 can be the kenel (seeing also Fig. 6) that protrudes from accommodation space 110 or be depressed in accommodation space 110.Cooperate shown in Figure 4, when portable electron device 20 is pushed in accommodation space 110, will contact with card selection structure 12, and between both surface of contact, more can add a buffering spacer 122, to avoid portable electron device 20 directly to contact and cause damage with card selection structure 12, the bending place of this card selection structure 12 is articulated in the housing 11.

Therefore, when portable electron device 20 push card selection structures 12, this card selection structure 12 is stressed and rotate along the axle center, by the time the link slot of portable electron device 20 and this apparatus for transmitting signal 10 (seeing also shown in Figure 2) (figure does not show) engages and when having electric connection, this card selection structure 12 also will stop operating, and at this moment, be articulated in the buckle assembly 121 on the release handle 120 of card selection structure 12 other ends, as a latch, will be fastened on the relative groove 210 of portable electron device 20.When portable electron device 20 and expanding device finish combine after, this portable electron device 20 is just like whole main frame, and the display panel 300 of display device 30 is because of the display (figure does not show) greater than portable electron device, can allow the user when going out, portable electron device 20 can separate conveniently guiding and supporting from this expanding device, and convenient in conjunction with to have bigger display panel 300 in going back home or during work position.

Desire with portable electron device 20 when housing 11 breaks away from, only need to pull out (arrow as shown in Figure 4 is direction outward) outward with releasing handle 120, buckle assembly 121 will break away from from the relative groove 210 of portable electron device 20, and further drive card selection structure 12 is released portable electron device 20 in housing 10, conveniently to take.

Therefore, a kind of expanding device with a display func of the utility model under the different operating environment, can obtain preferable display frame with user that portable electron device is provided.And because of disposing the card selection structure in housing, to promote being connected and/or separating of portable electron device and expanding device.

Therefore the utility model has progressive and meets the important document of applying for utility model patent, files an application in accordance with the law.

Below the utility model is described in detail, the above only is a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, when not limiting the scope that the utility model is implemented.Be that all equalizations of doing according to the utility model application range change and modify etc., all should still belong in the patent covering scope of the present utility model.
