A connector is configured to be connected to an inlet of an electric apparatus having a storage battery. The connector includes a main body portion, an insertion portion, a first arm, a first preloading member, a release member, a solenoid, and a slide member. The slide member includes a support piece configured to come into contact with a back surface of a first front portion and a connection piece connecting a plunger and the support piece. The connection piece includes a first connection piece provided on a side of the plunger and a second connection piece provided on a side of the support piece. The support piece and the first connection piece are provided with a shift in position in a left-and-right direction.

The present invention is an RFID-enabled electrical connector with connector position assurance (“CPA”) features, comprised of an electrical connector having a plug, a socket, and a CPA feature; a strategically located electrically conductive material, such as a conductive polymer or metalized plastic; and an RFID tag. The present invention can be fabricated using a standard RFID tag, or a mini-RFID tag that has no antenna. The lack of antenna gives the mini-RFID tag an effective transmission distance of less than 25 mm. In the illustrated embodiments, until the CPA feature has been fully deployed, the RFID tag or mini-RFID tag cannot be read because of the strategic placement of the electrically conductive material. The RFID tag can only be properly read after the CPA feature has been fully deployed.

A socket, connectable to a plug-in device, wherein the plug-in device is a bushing and/or a plug-in cable termination, is described. The socket includes a current conduction path and a field control unit. The field control unit includes a layer arrangement with at least three conductive layers arranged around the current conduction path and separated by an insulating material

A power extension cord socket includes a first socket device and a control device. The first socket device has plural AC power sockets and AC power switches, and each AC power socket is provided for plugging an external load to forward mains electricity, and each AC power switch is connected to the respective AC power socket for controlling the open circuit or closed circuit of the AC power socket. The control device is coupled to the mains electricity and electrically connected to the first socket device. The control device has a leakage detection processor and a leakage power-off switch and uses the leakage detection processor to detect a current usage status of the first socket device, and turns on the leakage power-off switch in an abnormal status to stop each AC power socket from forwarding the mains electricity to the load.

A printed circuit (PC) card apparatus can, in an absence of external power provided to a Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) PC card, prevent and detect unauthorized access to secure data stored on a memory device mounted on the PCIe PC card. The PCIe card includes a primary battery to supply, when external power is disconnected from the PCIe card, power to an electronic security device mounted on the PCIe card. The PC card apparatus also includes a PCIe edge connector protector enclosing electrically conductive fingers of a PCIe edge card connector. The PCIe edge connector protector includes a hidden supplemental charge storage device integrated into the PCIe edge connector protector. The PCIe edge connector protector also includes electrically conductive contacts to transfer supplemental power from the supplemental charge storage device to the electronic security device.

A solar powered outlet assembly includes a housing that has a spike to penetrate a support surface thereby retaining the housing on the support surface. A pair of female electrical outlets is each integrated into the housing to have a male power cord plugged into the female electrical outlets. A solar panel is coupled to the housing such that the solar panel is exposed to sunlight. The solar panel is in electrical communication with each of the female electrical outlets. In this way the solar panel can supply electrical power to the male power cord that is plugged into the female electrical outlets.

A printed circuit board is housed in a connector. A temperature sensor is mounted on the printed circuit board between two connection pads located on one of the faces of the printed circuit board. A contact housed in the connector is placed in thermal continuity with two thermal conduction lands, one of which is arranged on the same face of the printed circuit board as the connection pads and the other of which is arranged beneath the temperature sensor. Each of the connection pads is connected to a temperature measurement circuit.

A power adapter includes a housing, an electronic assembly and a protective assembly. The housing has a receiving cavity, and the housing is provided with at least one heat dissipation hole penetrating to the receiving cavity. The electronic assembly comprises a plurality of electronic elements located in the receiving cavity. The protective assembly comprises a connection portion connected to an outer wall of the housing and extending outward, and a protective portion connected to an extension end of the connection portion, the protective portion is spaced apart from the housing. The projection of the protective portion toward the housing covers the heat dissipation hole. The protective portion of the power adapter may shield the heat dissipation hole to prevent external dust from falling into the receiving cavity through the heat dissipation hole. Heat dissipated by the electronic assembly may be dissipated out through the heat dissipation hole.
