A releasable extension cord connector apparatus, further comprising:
- a) a male coupling connector housing with a first half male portion and a second half male portion, the first half male portion and the second half male portion being flexibly hinged and molded as a single housing, and being movable between open and closed positions and being sized to receive a portion of a connected inline male and female electrical plug and socket therein, the first and second male coupling connectors portions forming a rounded end to resist entanglement when the closed first and second male coupling connectors are pulled around corners and past objects, the first half male portion and the second half male portion each having a first end and a second end;
- b) a plurality of ridges and grooves being positioned to extend in parallel, side by side alignment about the first end of the first and second half male portions;
- c) a male end aperture being positioned to extend through the second end of at least one of the first half male portion and the second half male portion, the male end apertures being sized to receive an electrical cord therethrough;
- d) a female coupling connector housing with a first half female portion and a second half female portion, the first half female portion and the second half female portion being flexibly hinged and molded as a single housing, and movable between open and closed positions and sized to receive a portion of a connected inline male and female electrical plug and socket therein, the first and second female coupling connectors form a rounded end to resist entanglement when the closed first and second female coupling connectors are pulled around corners and past objects, the first half female portion and the second half female portion each having a first end and a second end;
- e) a female end aperture being positioned to extends through the second end of at least one of the first half female portion and the second half female portion, the female end aperture being sized to receive an electrical cord therethrough;
- f) a plurality of ridges and grooves being positioned to extend in parallel, side by side alignment about the first end of the first and second half female portions, the plurality of ridges and grooves being located on the first end of the first and second half female portions and sized to encircle and engage the plurality of ridges and grooves located upon the first end of the first and second male portions, enabling the adjustable positioning of the length of the releasable extension cord connector apparatus to suit the length of the electrical plug and socket inserted within the releasable extension cord connector apparatus to avoid disconnection between the electrical plug and socket when the electrical cord is pulled;
- g) a first releasable securement means being secured to the first end of the first half male portion, and a second releasable securement means being secured to the first end of the second half male portion, the first and second releasable securement means being positioned to engage and releasably secure the first and second half male portions together when the first and second half male portions are pivoted about the male hinge into a closed position;
- h) a third releasable securement means being secured to the first end of the first half female portion, and a fourth releasable securement means being secured to the first end of the second half female portion, the third and fourth releasable securement means being positioned to engage and releasably secure the first and second half female portion together when the first and second half female portions are pivoted about the female hinge into a closed position about the first end of the closed male portion.
