Detachable power supply apparatus
First Claim
1. A detachable power supply apparatus for an appliance comprising:
- a temperature control device for electrical connection to the appliance, said temperature control device having a body with a first side and a second side being substantially opposite said first side, said temperature control device having a first member extending outwardly from said first side, said temperature control device having a conductor near said first side and a probe on said second side; and
a power supply cord having a female electrical connector at a first end of a power supply, said female connector connecting to said conductor and being connectable to the power supply to supply power to said female connector and to said conductor, said power supply cord having a clip member on said first end of the power supply, wherein said clip member selectively fastens to said first member so that said first member disengages said clip member such that the appliance does not substantially move upon application of a force on said power supply cord.

Abstract
A detachable power supply apparatus for an appliance has a temperature control device for electrical connection to the appliance. The temperature control device has a first member extending outwardly therefrom and a conductor on the first side of the temperature control device. The temperature control device has a probe on a second side substantially opposite the first side. The apparatus has a power supply cord with a female electrical connector that connects to the conductor. The female connector is connectable to a power supply to supply power to the female connector and to the conductor. The power supply cord has a clip member that selectively fastens to the first member so that the first member disengages the clip member without disturbing a position of the appliance upon application of a force on the power supply cord.

17. A detachable power supply apparatus for an appliance comprising:
-
a first electrical component having a body, said first electrical component being electrically connected to the appliance by a first conductive member on a first side; and a second component having a body with a second side, wherein said first electrical component has a member at said first side, and wherein said second component has a friction clip at said second side, said second side being complementary to said first side so that said friction clip releasably engages said member and releases said member upon an application of a force upon either said first component and said second component such that the appliance does not substantially move. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19)

20. A power supply apparatus for an electrical appliance comprising:
-
a housing with a first side and a second side, said first side connected to a power supply, wherein said housing has a friction clip at said second side, wherein said friction clip releasably engages the electrical appliance, wherein said friction clip selectively releases the electrical appliance upon an application of a force such that the location of the appliance does not substantially move, and wherein said friction clip has a base portion connected to a first arm and connected to a second arm, said first arm having a first curved portion, said second arm having a second curved portion, and wherein said first curved portion and said second curved portion releasably engages the electrical appliance. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22)
