Patent attributes
An adapter mechanism includes an electrical adapter and an attachment device. The electrical adapter includes an adapter housing and a pair of conductive prongs. The adapter housing includes a first complementary connector, and the pair of conductive prongs is configured to be inserted into an electrical outlet. The attachment device includes a fixation aperture and a second complementary connector. The attachment device is configured to move relative to the adapter housing between a retracted position and an extended position. When the attachment device is in the retracted position, the second complementary connector is uncoupled from the first complementary connector. When the attachment device is in the extended position, the fixation aperture is extended out from the adapter housing and the second complementary connector is coupled to the first complementary connector to secure the attachment device in place at the adapter housing.
