Electronic cigarette
An electronic cigarette, comprising a housing and a suction nozzle, the housing provided with a support. The electronic cigarette further comprises a top cover capable of covering an opening of the housing, the suction nozzle is disposed at the top of the top cover, one end of the top cover is connected to the support through a rotating shaft, a clamping rib is disposed at the bottom of the top cover, and a locking mechanism connected to the clamping rib by locking and an elastic mechanism for opening the top cover when the locking mechanism is separated from the clamping rib are also disposed in the housing; the locking mechanism comprises a key handle, a transmission and a first spring, and one end of the key handle is connected to the transmission.
RECESSING SMART QUICK CONNECT DEVICES
A fixture is sized to be inserted into an electrical junction box having a socket. The fixture has a plug with conductive terminals that are mateable with the socket to connect the fixture to an electrical signal connected to the socket. An end of the fixture with the plug is inserted into the junction box to mate with the socket. A release latch extends from the plug so that an end of the latch is not recessed within the junction box, and can be pushed to release the plug and fixture for removal. The socket is attached to extension arms that are attachable to the junction box, so that the socket can be positioned at the correct height within the box to properly mate with the plug of the fixture after insertion.
POWERED TREE CONSTRUCTION
A power transfer system to facilitate the transfer of electrical power between tree trunk sections of an artificial tree is disclosed. The power transfer system can advantageously enable neighboring tree trunk sections to be electrically connected without the need to rotationally align the tree trunk sections. Power distribution subsystems can be partially disposed within the trunk sections. The power distribution subsystems can comprise a male end, a female end, or both. The male ends can have prongs and the female ends can have channels, and the prongs and channels may be positioned outside of the trunk sections. The prongs can be inserted into the channels to electrically connect the power distribution subsystems of neighboring tree trunk sections. The prongs and channels may be configured to engage one another without the need to rotationally align the tree trunk sections.
Magnetic Electrical Outlet Assembly
A magnetic electrical outlet assembly for supplying electrical power to an electronic device includes an outlet that is wired into electrical communication with an electrical system in a building. A wall plate is magnetically attachable to the outlet and the wall plate receives the electrical power from the electrical system. A socket is magnetically attachable to the wall plate and the socket receives electrical power from the electrical system. A female electrical outlet is integrated into the socket to receive a male electrical plug.
SUPPORT BASE FOR FURNITURE ACCESSORIES
A support base includes a connector hub having a top end, a bottom end spaced apart from the top end, and a chamber wall extending between the top and bottom ends. The chamber wall defines a chamber within the connector hub. An interface may be positioned in the chamber. The interface is dimensioned such that a support gap is formed between the interface and the chamber wall. The support gap may be dimensioned for receiving a wall of a support structure having a hollow interior into which the interface is received.
Mobile device support base including power interfaces
A support base includes a connector hub having a top end, a bottom end spaced apart from the top end, and a chamber wall extending between the top and bottom ends. The chamber wall defines a chamber within the connector hub. A power interface set may be positioned in the chamber. The power interface set is dimensioned such that an annular support gap is formed between the power interface set and the chamber wall. A cover plate may be coupled to the top end of the connector hub.

Smart quick connect device for electrical fixtures
A device for connecting an electrical fixture with electrical power supply wiring, and for mounting the fixture on a support includes a plug, a socket, and a sensing unit for at least one of wirelessly communicating a sensed condition and wirelessly receiving a signal, with the sensing unit electrically coupled to at least one of the plug and socket. The socket includes a socket body having at least one internal cavity therein with an electrically conductive contact terminal disposed within the cavity for establishing an electrical connection between the electrical power supply wiring and the socket. The plug is rigidly fixed to the fixture and insertable into the socket, with the plug having at least one male connector electrically connected to the fixture and engageable with the contact terminal within the socket to establish a circuit between the electrical fixture and the electrical power wiring. A releasable latch is carried on the combination of the plug and the socket for releasably mounting the fixture on the support.
MOBILE DEVICE SUPPORT BASE INCLUDING POWER INTERFACES
