Abstract

A multifunction digital versatile disc (DVD) expansion playback device combines a portable DVD player and a fixing base having functions of a peripheral together. The power of the DVD player comes from an external direct current (DC) power so that the DVD player can be used indoors, outdoors or in a car. Signals of the peripheral are received from the DVD player. The DVD player can also be taken out from the fixing base.

Claims

1. A multifunction digital versatile disc (DVD) expansion playback device comprising:

a fixing base having functions of a peripheral; and

a portable DVD player;

whereby signals of said peripheral are received from said DVD player when said DVD player and said fixing base are combined together, and said DVD player is also able to be taken out from said fixing base.

2. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said peripheral is an assembly of an amplitude modulator (AM), frequency modulator (FM) or car audio loudspeakers.

3. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 1, wherein the power of said DVD player comes from a car electric power or an external direct current (DC) power.

4. A multifunction DVD expansion playback device comprising:

a fixing base having functions of a peripheral, several barbs and a power connection portion of an external DC power being projectively disposed on a bottom face of said fixing base, a cavity being formed on the bottom face of said fixing base, a connection component connected with said peripheral being disposed on a side face adjacent to the bottom face of said fixing base; and

a portable DVD player having a dock, a connection port being disposed on a side face of said dock, said dock having several embedding grooves, a set of connectors, a catch component and a control component;

whereby when said DVD player uses said embedding grooves and said catch component thereon to engage said barbs and said cavity of said fixing base, said connection port is connected with said connection component of said fixing base, and said connectors contact said power connection portion to let power of said DVD player come from said external DC power, and signals of said peripheral are received from said DVD player, or said DVD player is able to be taken out from said fixing base through manipulation of said control component.

5. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 4, wherein a volume adjust component and an earphone socket are disposed on said dock of said DVD player.

6. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 4, wherein said peripheral is an assembly of AM, FM or car audio loudspeakers.

7. A multifunction DVD expansion playback device comprising:

a fixing base having the functions of a peripheral, several barbs being projectively disposed on a bottom face of said fixing base, a cavity being formed on the bottom face, a connection component connected with said peripheral and a power connection pole of an external DC power being disposed on a side face adjacent to the bottom face of said fixing base; and

a portable DVD player having a dock, a connection port and a connection point being disposed on a side face of said dock, said dock having several embedding grooves, a catch component and a control component;

whereby when said DVD player uses said embedding grooves and said catch component thereon to engage said barbs and said cavity of said fixing base, said connection port is connected with said connection component of said fixing base, said connection point contacts said power connection pole to let power of said DVD player come from said external DC power, and signals of said peripheral are received from said DVD player, or said DVD player is able to be taken out from said fixing base through manipulation of said control component.

8. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 7, wherein a volume adjust component and an earphone socket is disposed on said dock of said DVD player.

9. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 7, wherein said peripheral is an assembly of AM, FM or car audio loudspeakers.

10. A multifunction DVD expansion playback device comprising:

a fixing base having the functions of a peripheral, an accommodation room being formed on a bottom face of said fixing base, guide grooves being formed at two sides of said fixing base, a catch component being disposed at one side of each of said guide grooves, a connection component connected with said peripheral and a power connection pole of an external DC power being disposed on a side face adjacent to said guide grooves of said fixing base; and

a portable DVD player having a dock, a connection port and a connection point being disposed on a side face of said dock, sliding projective portions and locking holes being formed on two sides adjacent to said connection port;

whereby when said DVD player uses said sliding projective portions and said locking holes thereon to engage said guide grooves and said catch components of said fixing base, said connection port is connected with said connection component of said fixing base, said connection point contacts said power connection pole to let power of said DVD player come from said external DC power, and signals of said peripheral are received from said DVD player, or said DVD player is able to be taken out from said fixing base through manipulation of said catch components.

11. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 10, wherein a volume adjust component and an earphone socket is disposed on said dock of said DVD player.

12. The multifunction DVD expansion playback device as claimed in claim 10, wherein said peripheral is an assembly of AM, FM or car audio loudspeakers.
