Patent number: 8107243Abstract: A multiple electronic device power supply, battery charger, and USB docking system has a plurality of power ports for charging/powering electronic devices and a plurality of USB ports for coupling peripheral devices to a computer or large electronic device. Electronic devices which may be charged using the present invention can require current from less than 500 mA to approximately 6 A. Voltage setting resistors in specialized adapters serve to set the voltage needed for individual devices in order to manage current and voltage distribution throughout the present invention, particularly when large and mid-sized electronic devices are connected to the present multiple device charger and docking system. Default settings set the voltage output at 24 volts if not otherwise directed.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2008Date of Patent: January 31, 2012Assignee: Callpod Inc.Inventors: Darren S. Guccione, Craig B. Lurey

Patent number: 7638971Abstract: An improved method of charging multiple batteries and battery powered devices of different types at one time. Utilizing multiple methods of supplying DC power to external batteries, a user can charge a variety of devices at the same time. The power is routed in three distinct ways: directly to the output ports, through resistors, and through a switch converter. Then, using methods established and known to one in the art, external electronic devices may be attached to the output ports. Thus, the external battery will be charged through whichever route delivers the proper voltage. This design utilizes the logic contained within the external device for charging purposes.Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2007Date of Patent: December 29, 2009Assignee: Callpod, Inc.Inventors: Darren Guccione, Craig Lurey
