Abstract:
1. An overload protection control mechanism for a power supply, comprising: an overload protection circuit, built inside a power supply and determining the DC power state of its output signal according to the value of the power output by said power supply; and a control mechanism, further comprising: a first connector, an adapter device and a control element, wherein said first connector is arranged in the output end of said power supply; said adapter device has a second connector, which can be electrically connected to said first connector, and transmits power to a back-end electronic device; said control element is installed in the place where said first connector is electrically connected to said second connector; said control element generates a first signal when said first connector and said second connector are in an electric connection state and generates a second signal when said first connector and said second connector are in an electric disconnection state; when said first signal is input into said overload protection circuit, said overload protection circuit enters a first overload protection mode; when said second signal is input into said overload protection circuit, said overload protection circuit enters a second overload protection mode.
