20100052613 | CHARGER WITH AUDIO PLAY-THROUGH - A battery charger having an integral cable management means is adapted to receive power from a vehicle electrical system and provide power to a portable personal electronic device, for recharging the portable personal electronic device battery while allowing the audio and/or video output of the device to simultaneously be provided for listening or viewing by the user. | 03-04-2010 |
20100056072 | IN-CABLE FM TUNER-TRANSMITTER CONNECTOR - An apparatus consisting of a connecting cable with a built-in FM tuner and transmitter that connects a portable entertainment device with an external entertainment system over a number of preset frequencies, and which the user can quickly operate without needing to look at the apparatus in order to select a different FM frequency for playback operation if the need arises. | 03-04-2010 |
20100056073 | IN-CABLE FM TUNER-TRANSMITTER CONNECTOR - A connecting cable with a built-in FM tuner and transmitter for connecting a portable entertainment device with an external entertainment system for wireless playback from the device to the system over preset frequencies, and which the user can operate without needing to look at the apparatus in order to select a different FM frequency for playback operation if the need arises. | 03-04-2010 |
20100290322 | Integrated Digital Media Player Cassette Adapter - A digital media player integrated into the housing of the cassette adapter. A cassette shaped housing of a cassette adapter includes a removable portion suitable for accommodating a digital media player in place of the portion when removed. In a most preferred embodiment, the media player is an Apple iPod Shuffle. The digital media player is affixed and integrated into the housing by means of a groove, and is connected to the record-head of the adapter by an electronic coupling means capable of transmitting an audio signal; for instance, a TSR connector or stereo jack plug. Control means for the iPod Shuffle or other media player, including but not limited to play mode, track selection, and volume, can alternatively be integrated into the housing of the adapter, or can be embodied in a separate control housing connected to the circuitry in the main housing by a conducting cable. | 11-18-2010 |
20120019392 | USB Charger - A USB charger comprises a power input, a microprocessor, a resistor network, and a USB port for charging electronic devices through the USB port. The USB charger defaults to provide 2000 mA when power is applied through the power input. When a device is detected at the USB port, it measures device current drain to determine if it is charging. If the device is charging, then it remains in the 2000 mA charging mode. If no current drain is detected, the power supply switches to 1000 mA. If the electronic device recognizes the proper charging network it will begin charging. When the microprocessor detects current drain, it leaves the charging network as is. If still no current drain is detected, the USB microprocessor will attempt the 500 mA charging current. If there is a current drain, it will leave the charging network as is. If no current drain is detected, then it indicates a fault and a LED flashes to indicate the fault. | 01-26-2012 |
20120032830 | Motion Controlled Vehicle Power Adapter - A motion controlled vehicle power adapter with a vehicle power adapter that can be plugged into the 12V vehicle power outlet and has a remote motion sensor at one end of the vehicle power adapter opposite the end that plugs into the 12 V vehicle power outlet. The remote motion sensor is operated by the operator's hand motion near the sensor without contacting the sensor. The remote motion sensor may be detachable from the vehicle power adapter. The operator's hand motions are translated into control signals and sent to a portable electronic device to control its functions. The control signals may be sent through a wire or wirelessly through a wireless transmitter. | 02-09-2012 |
20120188687 | Dock with USB Port - The dock with USB port is a compact and portable adapter. It has a substantially smaller form factor than the electronic device to be docked with it. The dock with USB port plugs into a USB port and provides an adjustable dock for an electronic device and a pass thru USB port that can be used by another electronic device. The dock with USB port comprises of a housing with a USB plug at one end and a USB port at the other end. A plug that extends from a small flange is provided in a concavity, which angles toward the USB plug, on a side of the housing. An adjustable support is provided adjacent to the concavity to support an electronic device. | 07-26-2012 |
20120257432 | USB AC Adapter with Removable USB Vehicle Power Adapter - The USB AC adapter with removable USB vehicle power adapter comprises of a housing with a slot that holds a removable vehicle power adapter. The housing has an alternating current plug adapted to be insertable into an alternating current source. The housing further encloses a universal serial bus. Power conversion circuits are enclosed in the housing to convert the 110V alternating current to both 5V and 12V direct currents. The 5V direct current is directed through the universal serial bus in the housing. The 12V direct current is directed to the slot that holds the removable vehicle power adapter. The removable vehicle power adapter is adapted to be removable from the housing and insertable into a vehicle's cigarette lighter socket and converts the 12V from the vehicle's direct current power supply to 5V direct current output through a universal serial bus. | 10-11-2012 |
