Abstract:
A mechanism for charging an electronic device with a retractable cord reel. The device maintains a substantially continuous converted power source connection during operation, including operations adjusting the length of the retractable cord.

Claim (Index 3):
A retractable cord reel apparatus assembly comprising:\n a) a main housing including a battery source and at least one power plug connector; b) a spool positioned within the main housing and arranged for rotation relative to the housing, the spool having a conductive surface along one face; c) a retractable cord having a distal end and a proximate end, the retractable cord capable of being extended from and retracted into the main housing so as to wrap around the spool during retraction, the proximate end of the retractable cord electrically communicating with the conductive surface of the spool; d) A power plug fixably connected relative to the main housing for providing power from an external AC power source to the retractable cord through electrical communication via the fixed conductive spring and the conductive surface of the spool; e) At least one fixed, conductive spring contact in the main housing for enabling continuous conductive contact with the conductive surface of the spool; and f) A USB power plug module for removably connecting to the main housing via a power plug connector for engaging the power plug connector of the main housing, the USB power plug module maintaining a fixed spatial relationship to the main housing during connection, the USB power plug module further providing a USB power plug for providing a direct current power source to the main housing from an external power supply during connection;\n whereby the retractable cord reel apparatus can change power sources for supplying power through the retractable cord between an external DC power source, an external AC power source, and a battery source.
