Power plug structure for light emitting electric power cord
A power plug structure for light emitting electric power cord is disclosed, wherein a plug body is internally combined with a circuit board comprising at least a circuit device and two conductive boards, in which the circuit device includes at least a light emitting diode (LED), and the LED respectively corresponds a light guiding line within a power line; accordingly, when the two conductive boards guide alternative current (AC) power to the LED, the circuit device can drive the LED to generate light such that the light guiding line can integrally illuminate because of the light conduction, and the entire electric power cord can glow outwards through the translucent cladding.
Cover body that fixes a light guide bar and enhances the structural strength of the covered connector
A connector cover module adapted to be disposed on a connector on a mother board is provided. The connector cover module includes a cover body and at least one light guide bar. The cover body includes a top surface, a plurality of lateral surfaces, and at least one arm extending from one of the lateral surfaces and bending outward to form an accommodating groove. The light guide bar is disposed beside one of the lateral surfaces, held by the arms, and located in the accommodating groove bent and formed by the arms. A cover body is further provided.
Electrical system, and power inlet apparatus and electrical receptacle assembly therefor
An electrical receptacle assembly is for a power inlet apparatus of an electrical system. The power inlet apparatus includes a housing. The electrical system has a power source and a transfer switch. The electrical receptacle assembly includes an electrical receptacle structured to be mechanically coupled to the housing and electrically connected with the power source and the transfer switch, and an indication assembly mechanically coupled to and electrically connected with the electrical receptacle. The indication assembly has a status indicator adapted to provide an indication of circuit status within the electrical system.
Light guide bar and connector assembly
A light guide bar adapted to be interleaved between two connectors which are disposed on a main board. Each of the connectors has a connector lateral wall. At least one connector includes a positioning protrusion. The light guide bar includes a body. The body includes two opposite light guide bar lateral walls and at least one positioning recess. Each positioning recess is formed on one of the light guide bar lateral walls. The at least one positioning recess is adapted to be positioned on the positioning protrusion of the at least one connector. A connector assembly having the light guide bar and the two connectors is further provided.
FLAT ELECTRICAL PLUG WITH CHILD SAFETY FEATURE
A device, system, and method for connecting a peripheral device to a power source. The device may include a housing including a first portion coupled to a second portion, the first portion including a face portion and an edging portion, the edging portion edging portion defining the housing thickness. The housing may have an internal chamber, within which may be a circuitry component, at least a portion of at least one plug component, at least one connection port in the housing edging portion, and a light source within the housing interior chamber. Further, each connection port may have a connection port cover that is configured to selectively obstruct or unobstruct the connection port by the application of a minimum amount of activation force against the connection port cover.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, AND POWER INLET APPARATUS AND ELECTRICAL RECEPTACLE ASSEMBLY THEREFOR
An electrical receptacle assembly is for a power inlet apparatus of an electrical system. The power inlet apparatus includes a housing. The electrical system has a power source and a transfer switch. The electrical receptacle assembly includes an electrical receptacle structured to be mechanically coupled to the housing and electrically connected with the power source and the transfer switch, and an indication assembly mechanically coupled to and electrically connected with the electrical receptacle. The indication assembly has a status indicator adapted to provide an indication of circuit status within the electrical system.
Illuminated printed circuit boards for connectors
Connectors that may provide illumination at an opening in order to facilitate the mating to a corresponding connector by a user. The illumination may be generated on a tongue of a connector insert or in a connector receptacle. For connector receptacles, illumination may be guided to illuminate an opening of the connector receptacle, it may be guided out of a front edge of a tongue in the connector receptacle, or it may be guided in other directions. For connector inserts, illumination may be out of a front edge or sides of a tongue in the connector insert, or it may be guided in other directions. The illumination may be colored or patterned to convey information to a user. Other examples may include a connector system having a connector insert with a light guide to provide illumination from a connector receptacle to an opening in the connector insert where it may be viewed by a user. In other examples, other types of data, such as authentication or identification data, may be optically transmitted either to or through a connector insert inserted in the connector receptacle.
ROCKER-ARM ASSEMBLIES WITH CONNECTABLE CABLE
Examples relate to devices comprising a stationary pivot plenum and a rocker-arm assembly pivotally coupled to the stationary pivot plenum and wherein the rocker-arm assembly comprises an inner conduit having at least one connector bay in which a connector of a cable assembly is removably coupled to the connector bay. In such examples the inner conduit of the rocker-arm assembly is accessible from the outside of the rocker-arm assembly to independently engage/disengage the removable cable assembly to/from the at least one connector bay.
Communications cable with status indicator for electronic devices
An electronic device system can include an electronic device. The electronic device can include a receptacle, and a device logic driving status unit configured to generate a status signal indicating activity of the electronic device, and a communications cable. The communications cable can include a first plug configured to connect to the receptacle and receive the status signal, wherein the first plug includes a status indicator configured to indicate activity of the electronic device based on the status signal.
CONNECTOR COVER MODULE AND COVER BODY
A connector cover module adapted to be disposed on a connector on a mother board is provided. The connector cover module includes a cover body and at least one light guide bar. The cover body includes a top surface, a plurality of lateral surfaces, and at least one arm extending from one of the lateral surfaces and bending outward to form an accommodating groove. The light guide bar is disposed beside one of the lateral surfaces, held by the arms, and located in the accommodating groove bent and formed by the arms. A cover body is further provided.
