Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of power adapter technology, specifically a portable power adapter. Background Technology

[0002] A power adapter is a power conversion device for small portable electronic devices and appliances. It is generally composed of components such as a casing, transformer, inductor, capacitor, control IC, and PCB board. It is an electronic device that converts alternating current (AC) into direct current (DC) and stabilizes the output voltage and current. Power adapters are widely used in various electronic devices, such as audio equipment, projectors, monitors, and computers. Its main function is to convert unstable AC power into stable DC power for the devices to use. This not only protects the devices from voltage fluctuations but also ensures the normal operation of the devices and extends their service life.

[0003] A portable power adapter is disclosed on the Chinese Patent Network (patent publication number CN220797249U), including an adapter body, a rotating shaft, a limiting component, pins, a rotating shaft, a telescopic rod, a protective cover, a connecting block, and two bases. By setting up the bases, rotating shaft, protective groove, telescopic rod, and protective cover, when the power adapter needs to be used, rotating the pins allows the limiting component to limit the base, sliding the protective cover so that it is located below the pins, and inserting the locking block into the corresponding slot, thus preventing the protective cover from affecting the use of the power adapter. When not in use, rotating the base allows the pins to be located in the protective groove, rotating and sliding the protective cover so that it covers the pins, and inserting the locking block into the corresponding slot, thus protecting the pins from dust accumulation and deformation when not in use.

[0004] The aforementioned power adapter provides protection and dust protection for the adapter body structure through the protective cover and the rotating structure of the plug, making it easy to carry and use. However, the adapter is bulky during carrying and takes up a lot of space when stored in a pocket. In addition, the power cord connected with the adapter is also difficult to store, and the cord often gets tangled and wrapped in the pocket, which is very inconvenient. Therefore, we propose a portable power adapter. Utility Model Content

[0013] Furthermore, the clamping plate forms an elastic rotation structure with the outer wall of one side of the shell back plate through a torsion spring shaft, and the shell back plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the shell frame.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] The power adapter can be stored by rotating the plug connected to the rotating base through the storage slot on one side of the housing frame. At the same time, the winding slots around the edge of the housing frame can be used to wind the connected power cord into shape, so that it is placed in the winding slot. With the slider sliding and engaging with the slot, the wound power cord can be kept stable and avoid tangling and knotting during storage and carrying. This provides convenience and stability while reducing the overall space occupied by the adapter.

[0016] The power adapter has a circuit board inside its cavity. The circuit board carries components and is electrically connected to the power cord and plug to ensure the normal operation of the adapter. Meanwhile, the rubber pads attached to the inner wall of the cavity provide cushioning protection for the circuit board, further improving the safety of the adapter during use.

A rotating seat 103 is provided inside the storage groove 102, and a plug 104 is connected to one end of the rotating seat 103. A winding groove 105 is provided on the four periphery of the outer shell frame 101, and a power cord 106 is connected to the inner wall of the winding groove 105. A slider 107 is provided on one side of the winding groove 105, and a slot 108 is engaged at one end of the slider 107.

[0029] To facilitate the carrying, storage, and use of this power adapter, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, this power adapter can be rotated and stored through the storage slot 102 on one side of the housing frame 101, and the plug 104 connected to the rotating base 103 can be rotated and stored. At the same time, the winding slots 105 around the edge of the housing frame 101 can be used to wind the connected power cord 106 into shape, so that it is placed in the winding slot 105. With the slider 107 sliding and engaging with the slot 108, the wound power cord 106 can be kept stable and avoid tangling and knotting of the cord during storage and carrying. This provides convenience and stability for carrying while reducing the overall space occupied by the adapter.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, the equipment compartment 2 includes an inner cavity 201, and a buckle plate 202 is engaged on one side of the inner cavity 201. A circuit board 203 is disposed inside the inner cavity 201, and rubber pads 204 are attached around the circuit board 203.
