Abstract
An adaptor, a light source device using the adaptor, and a lighting apparatus using the adaptor are provided. The adaptor includes a main body, a protruding part, and an operating component. The main body includes: a power supply mounting part, a light source mounting part, and a conducting circuit extending from the power supply mounting part to the light source mounting part; the protruding part is operatively movable to a blocking position for blocking the power supply mounting part from being engaged with the power supply module, and a releasing position for releasing the power supply mounting part to be engaged with the power supply module. The operating component is operatively movable on the main body to an on-position and an off-position.

An adaptor for electrically connecting a power supply module with a light-emitting apparatus, comprising:
- a main body, comprising:
- an outer wall, forming an inner chamber,
- a power supply mounting part, located at the outer wall and configured to be engaged with the power supply module;
- a light source mounting part, located at the outer wall and disposed opposite to the power supply mounting part, and configured to be engaged with the light-emitting apparatus;
- and
- a conducting circuit, located in the inner chamber and configured to be capable of being turned on and off, and configured to transmit electric power outputted by the power supply module to the light-emitting apparatus, when the power supply mounting part is engaged with the power supply module and the light source mounting part is engaged with the light-emitting apparatus,
- a protruding part, movably connected to the main body, wherein the protruding part is operatively movable to a blocking position and a releasing position;
- when in the blocking position, the protruding part blocks the power supply mounting part from being engaged with the power supply module, and when in the releasing position, the protruding part releases the power supply mounting part to be engaged with the power supply module, and
- an operating component, movably connected to the main body and the protruding part, wherein the operating component is operatively movable on the main body to an on-position and an off-position;
- when the power supply mounting part is engaged with the power supply module, by a resisting force from the power supply module, the protruding part moves to the releasing position and maintains in the releasing position, and the operating component moves to the on-position to turn on the conducting circuit;
- when the power supply mounting part is separated from the power supply module, the protruding part moves to the blocking position from the releasing position and meanwhile driving the operating component to move from the on-position to the off-position to turn off the conducting circuit.
