`Abstract of CN 1474252 (A)
`The present invention relates to the device and method for connecting computer signal and power to
`flexible standard internal or external computer equipment. The device includes a complex interface unit
`inside computer coupled with computer power supply and the data interface unit of mainboard for data
`exchange; and an interface converting unit coupled to the complex interface unit for obtaining power
`supply and data exchange with computer. The interface converting unit includes converter, separated
`power supply interface and signal interface, and the converter transmits the power supply and computer
`data from the complex interface unit to the power supply interface and the signal interface separately;
`and the power supply interface and the signal interface is suitable for connecting to the standard
`computer equipment interface.; The present invention makes the internal or external computer
`equipment portable or movable.
