Abstract

An in-vehicle charging adaptor device includes a plug main body and a cap separatably matched with the plug main body. The plug main body has a cigarette lighter plug formed at one end thereof, an USB socket formed at the other end thereof. A circuit device is received in the plug main body electrically connected with the cigarette lighter plug and the USB socket. The present invention has reasonable structure design, reliable function, and convenient practical usage with decorative function.

Claims

1. An in-vehicle charging adaptor device, comprising:

a plug main body; and

a cap, separatably matched with said plug main body;

wherein said plug main body has a cigarette lighter plug formed at one end thereof, an USB socket formed at the other end thereof, and a circuit device received therein to electrically connect said cigarette lighter plug and said USB socket.

2. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said cap is formed with a matching opening corresponding to a contour of said cigarette lighter plug, wherein said cap is separatably sleeved on said cigarette lighter plug.

3. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 2, further comprising a connecting coordination mechanism is disposed between said cap and said cigarette lighter plug.

4. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 3, wherein said connecting coordination mechanism has a magnet disposed in an inner top end of the cap and a magnetized terminal disposed on a top end of the cigarette lighter plug.

5. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 3, wherein said connecting coordination mechanism includes a wedging piece and a wedging groove.

6. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 2, wherein said cap has a guiding protrusion formed adjacent to said matching opening of said cap, wherein said cigarette lighter plug is formed with a guiding slot along a longitudinal direction thereof corresponding to said guiding protrusion.

7. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said cap has a hanging mechanism formed on a top end thereof so as to be hanged

8. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a supporting mechanism formed on said plug main body adjacent to said USB socket so as to support said in-vehicle charging adaptor device.

9. The in-vehicle charging adaptor device as claimed in claim 1, wherein said circuit device includes a fuse, a DC buck-convertor module, a protection circuit module and an indicator light, wherein said fuse has an inputting end connected to a corresponding conductive terminal of said cigarette lighter plug and an outputting end connected to said DC buck-convertor module, said DC buck-convertor module has an outputting end connected to an inputting end of said protection circuit module, said protection circuit module has an outputting end connected to a corresponding terminal of said USB socket, the outputting end of said protection circuit module is further connected to said indicator light.
