Expansion device
An expansion device is disclosed which includes an input/output body, a connection part, a turning structure, and at least one slot. The input/output body at least includes a first and a second input/output module, where the first and the second input/output modules are respectively disposed on two opposite surfaces of the input/output body. The connection part is disposed on one side of the input/output body. The turning structure is disposed to connect the input/output body and the connection part, wherein the connection part and the input/output body are turnable on the turning structure. The at least one slot is disposed on the connection part and configured to hold at least one mobile device.
1. An expansion device suitable for expanding capabilities of a mobile device, comprising:
at least one mobile device;
an input/output body, having a first input/output module and a second input/output module disposed respectively on two opposite surfaces of the input/output body;
a connection part, disposed on one side of the input/output body;
a turning structure, disposed to connect the input/output body and the connection part, wherein the connection part and the input/output body are turnable on the turning structure; and
at least one slot, disposed on the connection part and configured to hold the at least one mobile device,
wherein a recess is disposed onto the side of the input/output body on which the connection part is disposed, the connection part is capable of being turned into the recess, and the connection part is capable of being turned to enable an end surface of the connection part reaches a position against an end surface of the recess, and
wherein the at least one mobile device, after being held by the slot and turned no more than 180 degrees, is perpendicular to the input/output body.
2. The expansion device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the connection part holding the mobile device is capable of being turned towards the first input/output module so as to superpose the mobile device over the expansion device.
3. The expansion device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first input/output module or the second input/output module is capable of being turned to face upwards to be used.
4. The expansion device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein one of the at least one slot is disposed on a surface of the connection part.
5. The expansion device as claimed in claim 4 , wherein another of the at least one slot is disposed on an opposite surface of the connection part.
6. The expansion device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mobile device is capable of being electrically connected to the expansion device by wire.
7. The expansion device as claimed in claim 6 , wherein the mobile device has at least one port, configured to connect to at least one terminal in the slot by wire, and the connection part is electrically connected to the input/output body.
8. The expansion device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the mobile device is capable of being electrically wirelessly connected to the expansion device.
9. The expansion device as claimed in claim 8 , wherein the mobile device has a wireless transmission module, and the input/output body or the connection part has a corresponding wireless transmission module.
10. The expansion device as claimed in claim 9 , wherein the first input/output module composes a keyboard or a touch panel.
11. The expansion device as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the second input/output module composes a speaker or a projector.
