[0016] Non-limiting examples will be described with reference to the following figures:

[0017] [Fig. 1] shows the embodiment of the wireless power source device according to the invention.

[0018] [Fig. 2] shows an exploded view of the embodiment of the wireless power source device according to the invention. Detailed description

[0019] [Fig. 1] shows the embodiment of the wireless power source device according to the invention.

[0020] Fig. 1 shows a cordless power source device 1 comprising an adapter 3 configured to receive a tool battery 4 and a converter 2 configured to receive said adapter 3, wherein said converter 2 comprises a power outlet 11, at least one USB-A port 22, at least one USB-C port 23, an on-off button 24, an LED button 21, a fastening strap 12 provided with a ring 13 and ventilation, said adapter 3 comprises a lock / unlock button 31 with said converter 2.

[0021] So the adapter 3 will allow you to use different brands of tool batteries 4. An adapter can be specific to a tool battery, for example the Power for garlic battery from the Bosch brand can power the brand's gardening or DIY tools.

[0022] The adapter can be integrated into the converter 2 and form a single physical object including these two functions.

[0023] Thus, since the device only contains a single object, the quantity of materials needed for its manufacture is reduced.

[0024] The 11 socket can be of type E / F, a round socket comprising two cylindrical holes of 5 millimeters in diameter with a center distance of 19 millimeters. This is a grounded socket. Such a socket supports a voltage of 230V (volts) and a power of 150 watts.

[0025] The power outlet can therefore be used to power devices with limited energy requirements, such as desk lamps, radios and small refrigerators.

[0026] A USB-A (Universal Serial Bus) or USB-C port is available on portable devices, such as computers, mobile phones, and tablets. Such ports available on the converter 2 allow these devices to be charged or recharged for fast charging via a USB cable, ensuring greater charging efficiency than using mains power.

[0027] The on / off button lets you know if converter 2 is operational.

[0028] So if no device is plugged into the device, the device can be turned off. Conversely, the device must be turned on to power a device that is plugged into it.

[0029] The LED button indicates the power level available in the device. If the LED button is off, it is likely that the battery from which the energy is converted no longer has any power. Thus, converter 2 no longer has any energy to convert.

[0030] The fixing strap provided with a ring 13 allows the device to be hung on a support, for example a nail in a wall.

[0031] The fixing strap can be a red strip 25 millimeters wide and made of polypropylene.

[0032] The ring can be a 25 millimeter D-ring made of stainless steel. Also the stud inside the converter 2 housing for attaching the strap can be 3 millimeters in diameter, 40 millimeters in length and made of steel stainless.

[0033] Converter 2 can be cubic in shape, the cube having 80 millimeters on each side.

[0034] The adapter can be 70 millimeters wide. The foot of the adapter 2, once connected to the converter 3, can be 20 millimeters high.

[0035] The ventilation is not visible in this Figure and will be described in Figure 2.

[0036] The lock / unlock button 31 is used to lock the adapter in the converter once the adapter is placed in the converter 2.

[0037] If the adapter 3 is integrated into the converter, then the presence of a lock / unlock button is not necessary.

[0038] The lock / unlock button 31 of the battery adapter is made using plastic injection.

[0039] [Fig. 2] shows an exploded view of the embodiment of the tool battery conversion device according to the invention.

[0040] As described in Figure 1, the cordless power source device 1 comprises an adapter 3 configured to receive a tool battery 4 and a converter 2 configured to receive said adapter 3, wherein said converter 2 comprises a power outlet 11, at least one USB-A port 22, at least one USB-C port 23, an on-off button 24, an LED button 21, said adapter 3 comprises a lock / unlock button 31 with said converter 2.

[0041] Figure 2 shows said converter 2 consisting of a housing provided with two opposite facades 29a, 29b fixed together by fixing means 29c.

[0042] For example, the 29c fixing means are M3 x 50 millimeter M3 socket head screws.

[0043] Said converter 2 comprises a DC 12V ventilation 27, a 12V- 18V-230V transformer 28 and a contact piece 25 with the adapter 3.

[0044] The 12V 25mm DC (direct current) ventilation allows, thanks to the circulation of air, to maintain a constant and stable temperature within the converter during operation, thus extending its lifespan.

[0045] The 12V-18V-230V transformer 28 is used to convert the voltage of the tool battery 4 into a voltage that can be used by the power outlet 11 or the USB ports 22, 23. For example, said transformer converts the voltage of the tool battery 4 from 18V into a voltage of 230V for powering a 230V appliance on the power outlet of type E / F 11.

[0046] A printed circuit board 26 allows the mounting of the USB-A port 22, the USB-C port 23, the on-off button 24 and the LED button 21.

[0047] The fronts 29a, 29b of the converter housing 2 as well as the adapter are made using plastic injection.

[0048] The facade 29b facing the ventilation 27 has a grille allowing the evacuation of air in the converter to the outside.

[0049] Said converter 2 is configured to receive said adapter 3 by means of complementary fixing means 35 of said adapter 3 and 25 of said tool battery 4. Respective and complementary notches 36 of said adapter 3 and 26a of said converter 2 allow the power supply of said battery to pass to said converter 2 via said adapter 3.

[0050] Said adapter 3 is configured to receive the battery of tools 4 by means of complementary fixing means 32 of said adapter 3 and of said battery of tools 4.

[0051] For example, said complementary fixing means 32 allow said battery to be placed under the adapter 3 by lateral sliding.

[0052] The advantage of the invention is that it allows for easy transport of a cordless power source for various types of common appliances from an existing tool battery. The use of the device according to the invention thus makes it possible to do without the use of electrical extension cords.
