    Abstract

    An apparatus, consisting of two adapter(s) connected to each end of a multi conductor power cord; by way a female adapter(s), that is connected to one end of the multi conductor power cord, connects to a conventional cordless power tool and the other male adapter(s), that is connected to the other end of the same multi conductor power cord, connects to a conventional battery pack; creating an extension between the cordless power tool and the battery pack, allowing the user to house the battery pack in a tool belt, or any other location the user may find convenient other than directly connected to the cordless power tool, so the weight and bulk of the battery is no longer in the user's hand; by way a larger sized battery pack can be used that holds more of a charge than a smaller battery pack, which makes the cordless power tool more powerful, longer lasting, and more efficient, while being much lighter and less cumbersome for the user to manage.

    Claims

    1. Female adapter(s); locks into cordless pool, in place of conventional battery pack; connects to one side of multi conductor power cord.

    2. Male adapter(s); connects to female adapter(s) by way of multi conductor power cord; locks into battery pack by way of interlocking connection, essentially acting as an extension cord for battery pack, in order for the user to store the battery pack in a place other than the cordless power tool.

    3. Multi conductor power cord that connects a female adapter(s) to male adapter(s).

    DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT

    [0008] The device of the present invention is shown in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B when used in combination with a conventional cordless power tool 1 in which the cordless power tool 1 is connected to a female adapter(s) 2 by way of interlocking connection. Female adapter(s) 2 is connected to male adapter(s) 3 by way of conventional multi conductor power cord 4. Male adapter(s) 3 is connected to a conventional battery pack 5. A clip 6 is demonstrated and can be used on the battery pack 5 for easy storage to a conventional tool belt and/or another easily accessible placement.

    [0009] The device of the present invention is also shown in FIG. 2 as it would be stored in a conventional tool belt 6 worn by the user. The cordless power tool 1 is stored in the pocket of the tool belt 6 while the male adapter(s) 3 and battery pack 5A and 5B are attached to the tool belt 6 by way of clip or pocket. As presented in FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B, the device of the present invention is shown in FIG. 2 when used in combination with a conventional cordless power tool 1 in which the cordless power tool 1 is connected to a female adapter(s) 2 by way of interlocking connection. Female adapter(s) 2 is connected to male adapter(s) 3 by way of conventional multi conductor power cord 4. Male adapter(s) 3 is connected to a conventional battery pack 5. Also depicted in FIG. 2 is a secondary battery pack 5B, as multiple battery packs can be used in conjunction with adapter(s) 3 to provide additional power and battery life to the cordless power tool 1.
