  • Patent number: 8926372
    Abstract: A multiple plug sliding adapter is disclosed. A first connector with a first terminal block is connected to an upstream cable. The first terminal block is also connected to a downstream first connector plug. A transform adapter is movably coupled to the first connector, and includes a first connector socket receptive to the first connector plug. An extension that spatially offsets the second connector from the transform adapter is connected to the first connector socket, and extends from the transform adapter. A second connector with a second terminal block is connected to the extension and a downstream second connector plug. The first connector plug and the second connector plug conform to different configuration standards.

  • Publication number: 20140273613
    Abstract: Disclosed is a connector cable for multiple connectors comprising a base plug, an adapter plug and first and second pivot arms, so that the base plug and the adapter plug are movable between electrically engaged and electrically disengaged positions. The base plug has a first end, a second end, and first and second opposing sides with a first connector disposed in the first end of the base plug. The adapter plug has a first end, a second end, and first and second opposing sides. A first reciprocal connector disposed in the first end of the adapter plug is configured to mate with the first connector. A second connector, different than the first connector, is disposed in the second end of the adapter plug. The second connector is electrically connected to the first reciprocal connector.

  • Publication number: 20140032014
    Abstract: A wireless audio source integrated into a host bus of a vehicle includes a transmitter module for wirelessly transmitting signals received from a connected portable audio player to a receiver module connected to the host bus. The host bus links to other multimedia devices, such as to the vehicle's radio and speakers, thereby enabling the audio content to be reproduced over the speakers. In one aspect, the user is able to control the volume and related functions of the audio content using the standard radio controls. In other aspects, a portable wireless transceiver is disclosed wherein an occupant of the vehicle can transmit and receive multimedia data to and from a wireless transceiver coupled to the host bus. Multimedia and other devices connected to the host bus can thereby send and receive signals to and from the portable wireless transceiver.
