ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a safety lock for notebook-type computer dock.
2. Description of the Related Art
The conventional notebook-type computer is electrically connected with a dock without any burglarproof design. This is because that the notebook-type computer and the dock are two independent bodies and the dock is equipped with an auxiliary mechanism for retrieving the dock from the computer. Therefore, the burglarproof and protection design for the dock and computer should be considered with respect to the auxiliary retrieving mechanism.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
It is a primary object of the present invention to provide a safety lock for notebook-type computer dock, which is able to lock up the entire notebook-type computer and the dock. The safety lock serves to lock the dock with the computer to ensure safety. The safety lock also safely combines the I/O module, notebook-type computer and the dock into one body.
The present invention can be best understood through the following description and accompanying drawings.
