1. Field of the Invention
The present invention provides a computer direct current power source output device capable of connecting a computer power supply's direct current to a computer panel, housing, or hard disk rack, for supplying power to the computer's peripheral devices or allowing them to use direct current. The structure allows for an output circuit board to be affixed on the computer's hard disk rack, panel or housing, and provided thereon is an output circuit board with various output ends, and allow it to be electrically connected to the computer power supply's direct current power output end. As a result, the user can charge or use direct current for computer related peripheral devices.
2. Background of the Invention
In the rapid development of the computer, people have benefited by the revolutionary improvements has brought about, thereby changing the ways people handle things. In particular because of the expansion of the functions that computers can provide, peripheral devices with heterogonous functions, such as printers, scanners, external hard disks, hubs, card readers, digital cameras, speakers, web conferencing, wireless keyboards, wireless mice and cell phone recharge devices can work together with computers.
However, most computer peripheral devices need a power supply, especially direct current power, to operate at the required power. As known by those with industry knowledge, the way most of the above computer peripheral devices obtain power is by connecting one end of the connecting power cable to an AC power plug via a transformer, and change AC to DC via the transformer so as to provide the required power for the devices. Therefore, the AC power cable connectors require numerous transformers or plugs. The power cables connecting to each peripheral device will also be difficult to manage.
In view of the disadvantages of the above conventional power supplies, the inventor has developed the present invention through accumulated product development experience in computer related fields of expertise. The present invention is characterized in that the direct current output power of the computer power supply is connected to a computer panel, a housing, or a hard disk rack so as to recharge external computer peripheral devices or to make use of the direct current for the computer devices. The output circuit board with various output ends provided thereon can also be assembled with a hard disk rack or a panel, and be affixed on a computer hard disk rack, a panel or a housing. As a result, the user can connect the computer related peripheral devices with the output panel so as to recharge the computer related peripheral devices or make use of the direct current power.
As shown in
The rear surface of the output circuit board 1 is provided with a connecting end 16. The connecting end 16 can be connected with a corresponding connecting end 2 of the computer power supply output, such that the various output ends of the above output circuit board 1 can be provided with direct current as needed.
As shown in
As shown in FIGS. 5 to 10, the present invention's output circuit board 1 is provided with a variety of output ends. When implemented, the output circuit board 1 can be affixed on the front edge of a 5.25 inch hard disk rack 4, a 5.25 inch covering board 5, or a 3.5 inch covering board 6, such that it can be affixed on the 5.25 inch hard disk rack 73 or a 3.5 inch hard disk rack 74 on the panel 71 of the computer host 7, as described above.
