Abstract
A connector concealment mechanism for computer peripheral device is proposed, which is designed for use in conjunction with a computer peripheral device equipped with an external connector for the connector to be concealable into the casing of the computer peripheral device when not in use, and be easily ejected out of the computer casing for use to connect the computer peripheral device to a computer unit. This feature allows the computer peripheral device to be more advantageous to use than the prior art due to the fact that it allows the user to conceal the connector into the casing of the computer peripheral device when not in use, without having using a separable cap which would easily get lost as in the case of the prior art, thus making the use of the computer peripheral device more convenient and trouble-free than prior art.
