Adapter with interchangeable plug board

Abstract

An adapter with interchangeable plug board (3) that can be easily interchanged for various types of receptacles is provided. The adapter includes a casing (1), a cover (2), and a plug board (3). The casing (1) is formed with first insetting means such as a plurality of slots (13, 14b, 14c). In addition, an upright slide slot (16) is formed on one sidewall of the casing (1). A sliding piece (17) is slidably inset in the slide slot (16). The sliding piece (17) is formed with a stop tongue (170) on the top and is lockable at least at a top position and a lower position. The plug board (3) has a base board (30) and a plurality of plug pins (31) erected thereon. Further, the base board (30) is formed with second insetting means such as a plurality of tongues (33, 34) for forming a tongue-and-slot joint with the first insetting means on the casing (1). A stop slot (35) is formed near the rear edge of the base board (30). The first and second insetting means allow the plug board (3) to be easily mounted in position in the casing (1). The sliding piece (17) allows the plug board (3) to be locked in position in the casing (1), and also allows the plug board (3) to be easily detached from the casing (1) for replacement with another plug board.
