Patent ID: 7425132

Claim:
A power adaptor having an adaptor body and a power cable connecting to said adaptor body at one end, wherein said adaptor body has an elongated cavity and a through slot therewithin on a top surface, an opening on a front surface adjacent to said top surface, a first and a second locking troughs on the inner surface beneath said top surface on the front and back of said cavity respectively, a pair of first receiving sockets and a pair of second receiving sockets on two opposing inner side surfaces of said adaptor body; a plug assembly housed inside said adaptor body has two prongs whose back ends are fixedly attached to a connecting piece, a sliding rail sandwiched between a first stopping block and a second stopping block embedded into said opening and said second receiving socket respectively; said connecting piece has a trough on a top surface and a track on an opposite bottom surface that is slidably mounted on said sliding rail; a push bottom has a head piece slidably positioned within said cavity and connected to a body housed inside said adaptor body via said slot; said body and an elastic element are received by said trough of said connecting piece; said sliding rail has two wings extended from the sides of said sliding rail and embedded into said first receiving sockets respectively; two conducting plates arched elastically upward are provided along the two sides of said sliding rail so as to have constant contact with said two prongs as they are slid along said sliding rail; an electric member for voltage regulation and rectification is housed inside said adaptor body and is electrically connected to said conducting plates; when said prongs are completely retracted into said adaptor body, said body of said push button by the resilience of said elastic element is embedded into said second locking trough; to expose said prongs, said head piece is pressed to compress said elastic element and to release said body of said push button out of said second locking trough, said head piece is pushed forward along said cavity to stick out said prongs via said opening; when said connecting piece is stopped by said first stopping block and when said head piece is released, again by the resilience of said elastic element, said body of said push button is embedded into said first locking trough; to retract said prongs, said head piece is pressed to release said body of said push button out of said first locking trough and is pulled backward along said cavity until said connecting piece is stopped by said second stopping block; and when said head piece is released, again by the resilience of said elastic element, said body of said push button is embedded into said second locking trough.
