Patent ID: 8851912

Claim:
An electrical connector assembly, comprising: a power plug being capable of generating a magnetic force; and a power socket allowing the power plug to be insertably connected for providing power to the power plug, the power socket comprising a shell and a pop-up mechanism, the shell defining a first accommodating space to receive the pop-up mechanism, the pop-up mechanism comprising: a sliding assembly capable of moving back and forth along a first direction under control of an external force applied to the sliding assembly, and changing locations of the sliding assembly between a first position and a second position, the sliding assembly comprising a main body moving together with the sliding assembly, a battery, and a pair of first conductive pins located at the main body and connected to electrodes of the battery, an electromagnet comprising a first pin and a second pin; and two conductive blades being received in the first accommodating space, one of the conductive blades connected to the first pin of the electromagnet, and the other one of the conductive blades connected to the second pin of the electromagnet; wherein the two conductive blades contact with the pair of first conductive pins until the sliding assembly moves to the second position from the first position by an external force, the electromagnet receives a first current provided by the battery via the pair of the first conductive pins and the two conductive blades, the first current flows from the second pin to the first pin, and the electromagnet generates a magnetic field with the magnetic field oriented such that the power plug and the power socket repel each other.
