Benefits of technology

The purpose of this invention is to provide an improved securing device used with plugs or pipes. It consists of a tapered part at one end of the plug that fits into a corresponding hole in the cap. When two tubes are connected together, they rotate within the holes until it matches up properly. This ensures that the plug stays fixedly attached to the pipe.

Problems solved by technology

This patent describes a problem with current power supply adapters used by businesses who require both flat and circular sockets. These adapters are designed to connect to standard sockets but there can also be issues with the plug falling out or causing fires if needed. To address these concerns, an improved securing device is described.

Embodiment Construction

[0020]With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, it is noted that a power supply adapter of the present invention includes a body (A), a cap (10) and a plug (20). The body (A) has two upright walls oppositely opposed to each other and each upright wall has multiple ribs (a) formed on an inner face of the upright wall. The cap (10) is substantially U shaped and has multiple sliding tracks (100) formed on an inner face of the cap (10) to correspond to the ribs (a) of the body (A). Therefore, the cap (10) is able to slidably connect to the body (A) with the ribs (a) received in the corresponding sliding tracks (100). However, the combination between the cap (10) and the body (A) is not the focus of the present invention. The focus lies on the structure to secure the plug (20) on top of the cap (10) after the cap (10) is secured to the body (A).

[0021]In order to accomplish the objective of securing the position of the plug (20) on top of the cap (10), the cap (10) is provided with a protruded ring (
