DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
With reference now to the drawings, and in particular to FIGS. 1 through 5 thereof, a new voltage adapting device embodying the principles and concepts of the present invention and generally designated by the reference numeral 10 will be described.
As best illustrated in FIGS. 1 through 5, the voltage adapter system 10 generally comprises a conventional voltage modifier 12 to invert and regulate voltage. For example, the voltage modifier 12 may convert direct current from a 12 volt direct current vehicle battery to 120 volt alternating current. The voltage modifier 12 includes a control actuator 14 to select a desired voltage output. A primary female plug 16 is mounted on the voltage modifier 12 and is electrically coupled to the control actuator 14. The primary female plug 16 is an electrical inlet. A secondary female plug 18 is mounted on the voltage modifier 12 and is electrically coupled to the control actuator 14. The secondary female plug 18 is also an electrical inlet. A voltage meter 19 is mounted on the voltage modifier 12 and indicates a voltage output of the voltage modifier 12.
An electrical outlet 20 is mounted on the voltage modifier 12 and is electrically coupled to the control actuator 14. The electrical outlet 20 is a conventional 3 prong female plug to receive power plugs from electrical equipment.
A pair of clamps 22 is provided. Each of the clamps 22 is positionable on and electrically coupled to a pair of leads of a vehicle battery 24. A male plug 26 is electrically coupled to the clamps. The male plug 26 attached to the clamps 22 is removably extended into and electrically coupled to the primary female plug 16 to supply electricity to the voltage modifier from the vehicle battery 24.
A power port plug 28 is electrically coupled to a male plug 30. The power port plug 28 is positionable in and electrically couplable to a vehicle power port 32. The male plug 30 electrically coupled to the power port plug 28 is removably extended in and electrically coupled to the secondary female plug 18 to supply electricity to the voltage modifier 12 from the vehicle power port 32.
In use, a plug 34 from an electrically powered apparatus is extendable into the electrical outlet 20 to receive electrical power from the voltage modifier 12. The voltage modifier 12 may be electrically coupled to either a power port 32 of a vehicle or directly to the battery 24 of the vehicle to ensure greater portability and usefulness of the assembly 10.
With respect to the above description then, it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention, to include variations in size, materials, shape, form, function and manner of operation, assembly and use, are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art, and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention.
Therefore, the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention. Further, since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art, it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described, and accordingly, all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to, falling within the scope of the invention.
