发明名称 Docking station for electronic apparatus and connector mechanism therefor
摘要 A docking station for electronic apparatus includes a base, a hinge, a support, and a connector mechanism. The support is pivotally connected to the base through the hinge. The connector mechanism includes an angle transmission mechanism and a connecting module. The angle transmission mechanism is disposed in the base and includes a transmission device and a rotation part. The transmission device connects a pivot of the hinge and the rotation part so that the pivot can drive the rotation part to rotate through the transmission device. The connecting module is fixed on the rotation part and includes a connector exposed out the base through a window of the base. When an electronic apparatus is electrically connected to the connector, the support supports the electronic apparatus. Therefore, a user can adjust the support and the connector simultaneously, which reduces the time for connecting the electronic apparatus onto the docking station.
