ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WITH POWER PLUG AND POWER SOCKET
First Claim
1. A power plug, comprising:
- a housing;
at least two plug contacts positioned on the housing;
at least one conductive member positioned on the housing;
at least two conductive resilient pieces positioned in the housing, and electrically connected to the conductive member, wherein the at least two conductive resilient pieces are adjacent to the at least two plug contacts; and
at least two magnetic members positioned in the housing, and opposite to the at least two conductive resilient pieces.

Abstract
An electronic device includes a power plug and a power socket coupled to the power plug. The power plug includes a housing, two plug contacts, one conductive member, two conductive resilient pieces, and two magnetic members. The conductive resilient pieces are positioned in the housing, and are electrically connected to the conductive member. The magnetic members are positioned in the housing, and opposite to the at least two conductive resilient pieces. The power socket includes an inner housing, two socket contacts, and two metal pieces. The inner housing defines an assembly groove to receive the power plug. The metal pieces are positioned in the assembly groove of the inner housing, and are opposite to the magnetic members, such that a magnetic attraction force exerted between the metal pieces and the magnetic member actuates the power plug.
