  • Publication number: 20240111849
    Abstract: A media docking device includes an input circuit, an output circuit and a processing circuit. The input circuit is electrically connected to a media source device for receiving media data. The output circuit is electrically connected to a media play device. The processing circuit is electrically connected to the input circuit and the output circuit. The processing circuit determines if a verification procedure is passed. If the verification procedure is passed, the processing circuit transfers the media data to the media play device. If the verification procedure is not passed, the processing circuit limits a transmission of the media data, such that the media data will not be completely played by the media play device.

  • Publication number: 20240114207
    Abstract: A media docking device includes an input module, an output module and a processing module. The input module is electrically connected to a media source device for receiving media data. The output module is electrically connected to a media play device. The processing module determines if an instruction is received from the media source device or a remote device. If the instruction is not received, the processing module transfers the media data to the output module to transmit to the media play device. If the instruction is received, the processing module limits a transmission of the media data according to the instruction, such that the media data will not be completely played by the media play device.

  • Patent number: 7479024
    Abstract: A connector connecting and releasing apparatus for a connector set within a casing of a module connected with an apparatus is provided. The resisting portion comprises a sliding part protruding out of the casing of the module, and a first elastic part set between the sliding part and the casing. The sliding part moves inward the casing as forcing direction. The first elastic part provides a resilient force to move the sliding part protrude out of the casing. The arm structure comprises a pivot set on a predetermined location of the casing, a forcing arm set on one side of the pivot and contacting the sliding part, and a resisting arm set on the other side of the pivot. When the forcing arm is pressed by the sliding part, the arm structure rotates around the pivot, and the resisting arm forces the connector upward to protrude out of the casing.
