Patent ID: 7258580

Claim:
An electrical adapter assembly comprising: a cable having a distal end having a plug mounted on the distal end of the cable and having at least one through hole defined in the plug; a proximal end having a connector having a shell mounted on the proximal end and the shell having an inner space; a first end having an input hole defined through the first end and communicating with the inner space; a second end having an output hole defined through the second end and communicating with the inner space to allow the cable to be mounted in the inner space; an outer surface; a positive electrode having a terminal and a positive wire, wherein the terminal covers the first end and has an electrically conductive protrusion mounted through and extending out of the input hole; and the positive wire connects the protrusion and the cable; a negative electrode comprising a resilient tab and a negative wire, wherein the resilient tab is electrically conductive, is mounted in the inner space and extends out of the shell; and the negative wire connects the resilient tab to the cable; a thermal sensor mounted in the inner space of the connector; an adapter connecting to the cable and having a circuit board mounted in the adapter; and a socket mounted on the adapter to allow the plug to plug into the socket and having at least one contact mounted in the socket and connecting to the circuit board.
