Abstract
A docking station for connecting a notebook computer includes a supporting frame, a connector for electrically connecting to the notebook computer, and a handle pivoted to the supporting frame. A first slot is formed on the handle, and the handle includes a pushing part for pushing the connector in a first direction. The docking station includes a first stopper, and one end of the first stopper is disposed inside the first slot of the handle. The first stopper does not stop the connector when the handle is located in a first position. The pushing part pushes the connector in the first direction so that the connector is connected to the notebook computer, and the first slot drives the first stopper in a second direction so that the first stopper stops a side of the connector when the handle rotates from a first position to a second position.
