Definitions

  • the present invention relates generally to an adapter to convert one connector type to another connector type. More specifically, the present invention relates to an adapter to convert a proprietary connector to a micro universal serial bus connector.
  • Apple Inc. in Cupertino, California, manufactures and markets various popular electronic devices that use Apple's proprietary connectors for data transfer and recharging of the rechargeable battery in these electronic devices.
  • the proprietary connectors are rectangular shaped and the external dimensions are approximately 21 mm wide and 2.4 mm thick.
  • the proprietary connectors may have 10 to 30 contact pins.
  • the proprietary connectors on these electronic devices require corresponding proprietary connectors to connect with them.
  • a micro universal serial bus (micro USB) female connector is approximately 7.4 mm wide and 2 mm thick.
  • the micro USB female connector may have 5 contact pins or 12 contact pins.
  • the micro USB female connector requires a standard micro USB male connector to connect with it.
  • Micro USB is an industry standard connector that is widely used for various electronic devices.
  • Apple's proprietary connector is not compatible with the standard micro USB connector.
  • the lack of compatibility gives rise to an unfulfilled demand for a compact and easy to use adapter to enable the use of the common micro USB connector with Apple's proprietary connector.
  • the micro universal serial bus adapter of the present invention is an adapter to enable a micro universal serial bus connector to be connected to an Apple proprietary connector.
  • the micro universal serial bus adapter of the present invention comprises of an adapter that has a male proprietary connector at one end to connect to a female Apple proprietary connector and a female micro universal serial bus connector at the other end to connect to a standard male micro universal serial bus plug.
  • An object of the micro universal serial bus adapter is to provide an adapter from a proprietary connector to a standard micro USB.
  • a further object of the micro universal serial bus adapter is to provide a compact and portable adapter to enable use of the standards micro USB connector with Apple's proprietary connector.
  • Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.
  • Figure 2 shows an exploded perspective view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.
  • Figure 3 shows the top view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.
  • Figure 4 shows the front view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.

  • Figure 6 shows the left side view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.
  • Figure 7 shows the right side view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.
  • Figure 8 shows the rear view of the preferred embodiment of the micro universal serial bus adapter.
  • the micro universal serial bus adapter 1 comprises of a housing 2, preferably made of a plastic material such as ABS plastic.
  • the housing 2 may be comprised of two halves, a upper half 21 and a lower half
  • PCB printed circuit board
  • a male Apple proprietary connector 4 is affixed to one end of the PCB 3 and a female micro USB connector 5 is affixed to the other end of the PCB 3.
  • the Apple proprietary connector 4 is electrically connected to the micro USB 5 through the PCB 3.
  • the male Apple proprietary connector 4 extends outside of the housing 2 and is insertable into a female Apple proprietary connector in a portable electronic device.
  • the female micro USB connector 5 is positioned inside the housing 2 and is able to receive a male micro USB connector.
  • the housing 2 has an opening 6 near one corner for the attachment of a key chain or a strap.
  • the opening 6 may be in the form of a rounded triangle with the housing 2 sloping to a narrower edge near the corner of the housing 2. The opening 6 enables the attachment of a key chain or a strap for convenient carrying of the micros universal serial bus adapter 1.
  • the micro universal serial bus adapter 1 provides a compact and portable adapter to enable connection of a micro USB cable to a proprietary Apple connector.
  • the micro universal serial bus adapter 1 of the present invention enables a portable electronic device with a proprietary Apple connector to connect to a standard micro USB for charging and data transfers.
  • the micro universal serial bus adapter 1 eliminates the necessity of a proprietary connector and cable for the portable electronic devices and enables the use of common standard micro USB connector and cable.
