Patent ID: 11522375

Abstract:
A charge sleeve assembly and kit for a vehicle auxiliary power outlet has a cylindrical electric plug assembly coupled to a cylindrical USB port assembly along a common axis with at least one USB port proximally facing. A cylindrical cover assembly is designed to circumscribe the cylindrical USB port assembly. At least one substantially L-shaped groove portion is disposed longitudinally along an interior surface of the cylindrical cover assembly with an open slot portion, running toward a proximal end of the cylindrical cover assembly and jogging perpendicularly substantially at the proximal end of the cylindrical cover assembly. At least one protruding tooth member is disposed on an exterior surface of the cylindrical USB port assembly and fits within the groove portion to slide longitudinally along the groove portion and along the perpendicular jog, allowing the cylindrical cover to axially rotate, the at least one tooth member restraining longitudinal movement of the cylindrical cover.
