Abstract
A computer table includes a table body, a keyboard support located under the table body, a socket mounted on the table body and having U.S.B. interface slots and integrated card readers, and a keyboard lamp mounted on the table body and directed toward the keyboard support. Thus, the computer main post is connected to a peripheral equipment by the U.S.B. interface slots and the integrated card readers of the socket without having to provide an extension cord or expansion socket additionally, thereby facilitating a user connecting the computer main post with the peripheral equipment. In addition, the keyboard lamp emits light beams toward the keyboard placed on the keyboard support during operation of the computer main post so as to provide an illuminating effect to the keyboard.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

Referring to the drawings and initially to FIGS. 1-3, a computer table 10 in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a table body 11, a keyboard support 12 located under and movable relative to the table body 11 to support a keyboard “A” (see FIG. 4), a socket 20 mounted on the table body 11 and having a plurality of U.S.B. (universal bus) interface slots 21 and a plurality of integrated card readers 22, and a keyboard lamp 30 mounted on the table body 11 and directed toward the keyboard support 12.


The socket 20 is mounted on a top face of a side of the table body 11 and has a side provided with a U.S.B. connecting cord 23 that is connected to a computer main post (not shown). The top face of the table body 11 is formed with a receiving chamber 14, and the socket 20 is fully hidden in the receiving chamber 14 of the table body 11.


The keyboard lamp 30 is pivotally mounted on a bottom of the table body 11 and located adjacent to a middle portion of a front edge of the table body 11. The keyboard lamp 30 is a light emitting diode (LED) and has a side provided with a U.S.B. connecting cord 31 that is connected to the computer main post.


In practice, the socket 20 of the computer table 10 is provided with a plurality of U.S.B. interface slots 21 and a plurality of integrated card readers 22 and is connected to the computer main post, so that the computer main post is connected to a peripheral equipment (not shown) by the U.S.B. interface slots 21 and the integrated card readers 22 of the socket 20 without having to provide an extension cord or expansion socket additionally, thereby facilitating a user connecting the computer main post with the peripheral equipment.


Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5 with reference to FIGS. 1-3, the keyboard lamp 30 is connected to the computer main post, so that the keyboard lamp 30 emits light beams toward the keyboard “A” placed on the keyboard support 12 during operation of the computer main post so as to provide an illuminating effect to the keyboard “A”. In addition, the keyboard lamp 30 is pivotable relative to the keyboard support 12 to adjust an inclined angle between the keyboard lamp 30 and the keyboard support 12.


Accordingly, the computer main post is connected to a peripheral equipment by the U.S.B. interface slots and the integrated card readers of the socket without having to provide an extension cord or expansion socket additionally, thereby facilitating a user connecting the computer main post with the peripheral equipment. In addition, the keyboard lamp emits light beams toward the keyboard placed on the keyboard support during operation of the computer main post so as to provide an illuminating effect to the keyboard. Further, the keyboard lamp is pivotable relative to the keyboard support to adjust an inclined angle between the keyboard lamp and the keyboard support so as to adjust the illuminating angle.


Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment(s) as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claim or claims will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.
