  • Patent number: 10951055
    Abstract: An energy-saving hub is connected to an electronic device, an AC power source and a mobile device. The energy-saving hug includes a power supply interface, a power module, an upstream connector, a downstream connector, a main control circuit, and a system circuit. The power supply interface is used to connect to the AC power source, the power module is connected to the power supply interface, the upstream connector and the downstream are connected to the power module, and the main control circuit is connected to the power module and the upstream connector. The system circuit is connected to the upstream connector, the downstream connector and the main control circuit, wherein the system circuit is maintained in a sleep mode. When the energy-saving hub connects to the electronic device or the mobile device, the main control circuit transmits a wake-up signal to the system circuit to wake up the system circuit.

  • Publication number: 20190157888
    Abstract: A control circuit is mounted in a hub which includes first connector, second connector, third connector and power module. The first connector includes first data transmission line and first power line. The second connector includes second data transmission line and second power line. The power module includes first switch member electrically connected between the first power line and the second power line. The control circuit is electrically connected between the first data transmission line and the power module. When the third connector is electrically connected with AC source the control circuit opens the first switch member so that the first power line and the second power line are not electrically connected, and when the third connector is not electrically connected with AC source the control circuit closes the first switch member so that and the first power line and the second power line are electrically connected.
