  • Patent number: 7315444
    Abstract: The present invention is a modular structure for connecting interface on front panel of pc case, which combines the case and base such that not only the connecting interfaces for input/output originally installed at back side of PC are aligned at the front panel, but all connecting interfaces which accept insertion are integrated in a modular structure as well. Consequently, PC can be connected or expanded conveniently and, with the help of one or specialized flat cables, the assembly process of connecting interface is easy.

  • Patent number: 7178736
    Abstract: The present invention is a socket of card reader (I) for memory card with connecting terminals following specification of USB, which is a socket of card reader utilizing 4 pin USB (Universal Serial Bus) architecture for reading flash memory card with USB-compatible specification. The said socket of card reader is composed of a housing, a base, and 4 connecting terminals. Therefore, in comparison to the existing card reader that contains numerous connecting terminals, the present invention is apt to be implanted into related informational products. Besides, as the circuit architecture of USB connecting port is directly applied, the cost of developing new connecting architecture is thus saved.

  • Patent number: 7077316
    Abstract: The present invention is an integrated memory card reader. It relates to a card reader with connecting terminals arranged in layered style to accommodate the insertion of distinct specification memory cards. By way of integrating chip, connecting terminals, and layout of printed circuit on the base board, multiple complex connecting terminals are integrated in one to support an unified connecting specification, and through modularizing the memory connector as well as the integrated circuit base board, the card reader is downsized to facilitate being embedded into the main unit of an electrical appliance.

  • Patent number: 7052325
    Abstract: An all-in-one memory card reader includes a socket into which can be inserted memory cards having more than one distinct specification. A pivot base and a blocking slide are provided at the contact tips of connecting terminals welded on the base board, such that the contact tips of layered connecting terminals are able to be pressed down. Consequently, when a distinct specification memory card is inserted, the contact tips are pressed down to prevent the mis-touch and wear-out of the memory cards' terminals.
