Abstract
As a user depresses an eject button from the standard position to its sunken position and an instruction is transmitted to an installed notebook PC to request the disconnection of a driver for a device being operated in a docking station. When a notification is received from the PC indicating that the disconnection has been completed, for example and not to limit the a solenoid type electromagnetic apparatus switches a plunger to its non-projected position. The eject button is then placed into its projected position owing to the urging force of a spring. When the user depresses the eject button placed in its projected position, a motion direction converting lever is pivoted to activate an ejecting member and a locking hook. Consequently, the PC is ejected.
