技术领域technical field
本实用新型涉及一种可与计算机连接的外围装置,特别是涉及外围装置与计算机连接的机构设计。The utility model relates to a peripheral device which can be connected with a computer, in particular to a mechanism design for connecting the peripheral device with the computer.
背景技术Background technique
随着科技技术的发展,储存媒体的种类也越来越多,譬如可携式磁盘即为其中之一,可携式磁盘大致上可以区分为两种,一种为利用闪存(Flashmemory)作为储存媒体的行动碟,另一种为利用2.5英寸硬盘作为储存媒体的可携式硬盘,而上述的两种可携式磁盘多半采用通用串行总线(UniversalSerial Bus,USB)作为数据传输接口,通用串行总线(USB)具有传输速度快、随插即用的特性,且目前已成为相当普遍的数据传输接口,因此可携式磁盘可以很容易地与计算机连接传输数据,而且可携式磁盘体积小、储存容量大,已经成为相当普遍的储存媒体。With the development of technology, there are more and more types of storage media. For example, portable disks are one of them. Portable disks can be roughly divided into two types. One is to use flash memory (Flash memory) as storage The other is a portable hard disk using a 2.5-inch hard disk as a storage medium, and most of the above two portable disks use Universal Serial Bus (USB) as a data transmission interface. The line bus (USB) has the characteristics of fast transmission speed and plug-and-play, and has become a very common data transmission interface at present, so the portable disk can be easily connected with the computer to transmit data, and the portable disk is small , Large storage capacity, has become a fairly common storage medium.
以通用串行总线(USB)作为传输接口的可携式磁盘,于可携式磁盘端其连接器为公接头,计算机端的连接端口为母接头,因此可携式磁盘的连接器凸出于外,以便连接至计算机端,但凸出于外的连接器在不使用时外界的脏污或灰尘可能进入连接器内,将可能会影响到连接器的电性特性,且凸出在外的连接器也不利于收藏;另外,一般在计算机端是多个连接接口并列,而可携式硬盘的连接器为固定,若要连接二个以上的可携式硬盘时,二个可携式硬盘很可能会互相干涉,而无法与计算机顺利的连结。For portable disks with Universal Serial Bus (USB) as the transmission interface, the connector on the portable disk side is a male connector, and the connection port on the computer side is a female connector, so the connector of the portable disk protrudes outside , so as to connect to the computer side, but the external dirt or dust may enter the connector when the protruding connector is not in use, which may affect the electrical characteristics of the connector, and the protruding connector It is also not conducive to collection; in addition, generally on the computer side, multiple connection interfaces are arranged side by side, while the connector of the portable hard disk is fixed. When more than two portable hard disks are to be connected, the two portable hard disks are likely to Will interfere with each other, and can not be successfully connected with the computer.
为了解决上述的问题,遂有许多的专利案提出相关的解决方式;如美国公告第6522534号专利案(以下简称534案),534案即揭示了一种行动碟结构,534案包括了一用以容置电子组件的壳体及一露出于壳体的连接器,因为连接器为外露,因此534案还设计有一盖体,盖体可结合于壳体上,当不使用时可以保护连接器并且阻隔外界灰尘。然而,534案的壳体与盖体为分离的构件,盖体很可能会不小心遗失。In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, many patent cases have proposed related solutions; as the No. 6,522,534 patent case of U.S. announcement (hereinafter referred to as the 534 case), the 534 case discloses a mobile disc structure, and the 534 case includes a A housing for accommodating electronic components and a connector exposed to the housing. Because the connector is exposed, the 534 case also designs a cover that can be combined with the housing to protect the connector when not in use. And block the external dust. However, the casing and cover of Case 534 are separate components, and the cover may be accidentally lost.
如美国公告第6456500号专利案(以下简称500案)及美国公告第6612853号专利案(以下简称853案),500案与853案揭示了一种行动碟结构,500案与853案包括有一用以容置电子组件的内壳体及一套接于内壳体外的外壳体,其中,外壳体以可移动的方式设置于内壳体,于使用时,外壳体可移动而缩短与内壳体的相对距离,即可使固定在内壳体一端的连接器露出而与计算机连接,当不使用时,外壳体可移动而增加与内壳体的相对距离,使连接器可以收纳于外壳体内;500案与853案外壳体是连结于内壳体上,因此无须担心外壳体会遗失,而且在不使用时连接器收纳于外壳体内,外壳体可以保护连接器,更便于使用者携带或收藏。然而,500案与853案外壳体处具有对应连接器的开口,因此外界的脏污或灰尘仍会经由开口而进入连接器内,影响连接器的电性特性。No. 6,456,500 patent case (hereinafter referred to as the 500 case) and the No. 6,612,853 patent case (hereinafter referred to as the 853 case) of the U.S. announcement, the 500 case and the 853 case disclose a kind of mobile disc structure, and the 500 case and the 853 case include a utility The inner housing for accommodating electronic components and the outer housing sleeved outside the inner housing, wherein the outer housing is movably arranged on the inner housing, and when in use, the outer housing can be moved and shortened with the inner housing The relative distance, that is, the connector fixed at one end of the inner casing is exposed and connected to the computer. When not in use, the outer casing can be moved to increase the relative distance from the inner casing, so that the connector can be accommodated in the outer casing; The 500 case and 853 case are connected to the inner case, so there is no need to worry about the loss of the outer case, and the connector is stored in the outer case when not in use, and the outer case can protect the connector, which is more convenient for users to carry or store. However, the shells of the 500 case and the 853 case have openings corresponding to the connectors, so external dirt or dust will still enter the connectors through the openings, affecting the electrical characteristics of the connectors.
