Embodiment 1

[0053] This embodiment discloses an expansion dock.

[0054] refer to figure 1 , the expansion dock includes a first interface 1 , a second interface 2 , a third interface 3 , a hub control module 4 and an interface conversion module 5 .

[0055] The first interface 1 is used to connect with the first terminal device; in this embodiment, the first interface 1 is a USB-C female connector 32 , and the first interface 1 and the interface conversion module 5 can be connected through a Type-C cable 11 .

[0056] The second interface 2 is used to connect with the second terminal device; in this embodiment, the second interface 2 includes an audio jack 21, an HDMI female head 22, a VGA female head 23, a USB-A female head 31, and a USB-C female head 32 , one or more of the network card driver interface 33 and the card reader interface.

[0057] The third interface 3 is used to connect with the third terminal device; in the present embodiment, the third interface 3 includes one of a ...

Embodiment 2

[0065] This embodiment discloses an expansion dock.

[0066] refer to figure 2 , based on Embodiment 1, the difference between the docking station in this implementation and Embodiment 1 is that the docking station further includes several casings 6 connected in series. There are three housings 6 in this embodiment, namely a first housing 61 , a second housing 62 and a third housing 63 .

[0067] refer to image 3 , Figure 4 , wherein, the first housing 61 has at least a built-in interface conversion module 5, and the interface conversion module 5 is connected to the first interface 1 located outside the first housing 61 through a Type-C cable 11. In this embodiment, the first interface 1 is USB-C female connector 32. The first housing 61 is located on a side different from the Type-C cable 11 and is provided with a fixing groove 64. A number of second interfaces 2 are distributed on the side of the first housing 61. The second interfaces 2 are specifically audio jacks 2...

Abstract

The invention relates to a docking station, which comprises a first interface, a second interface, a third interface, a line concentration control module and an interface conversion module, and is characterized in that the first interface, the second interface and the third interface are correspondingly connected to different terminal devices, so that the different terminal devices establish data transmission connection channels through the interface conversion module and the corresponding interfaces; moreover, the number and types of the second interfaces or the third interfaces can be properly expanded through the line concentration control module, and the connection application range of the first terminal equipment and other equipment can be expanded. The docking station is an external device and can be connected to a first terminal device through a first interface, and the first terminal device can comprise a thin notebook computer; establishing connection between the corresponding second terminal equipment or third terminal equipment and the first terminal equipment through the second interface or the third interface; and the defect that external ports of a thin notebook computer are rare is effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of docking technology, in particular to a docking station. Background technique [0002] Docking station, also known as Port Replicator, is an external device specially designed for notebook computers. By duplicating or even extending the ports of a notebook computer, it is possible to make a convenient one-stop connection between a notebook computer and multiple accessories or external devices. The expansion dock is mostly set on the base of the notebook computer. [0003] At present, the thickness of notebook computers tends to be thinner, and the number and types of external ports of the expansion dock are gradually decreasing, especially some relatively large external ports, such as VGA and HDMI. [0004] Regarding the above-mentioned related technologies, the inventor believes that there are the following defects. The number and types of external ports of the expansion dock are reduced, and it is not ...
