A pin configuration adapter is disclosed which can be attached to an AC-adapter having a plug body having a first pin configuration and an AC-adapter housing having a power conversion circuit. The plug body is rotatable between a first position where it is accommodated in a recess formed in the AC-adapter housing and a second position where it is in an upright position with respect to the AC-adapter housing. The pin configuration adapter includes a plug part having a second pin configuration different from the first pin configuration; a receptacle part whereto the plug body in the second position can be inserted; a pin configuration adapter housing having an internal connection mechanism for electrically connecting the plug body and the plug part; and an engaging part provided on the pin configuration adapter housing and engages with the recess of the AC-adapter housing.
A pin configuration adapter attachable to an AC-adaptor having a rotatable plug body having pins for transferring an electric power, said pins being in a first pin configuration, and an AC-adapter housing having a recess for accommodating said rotatable plug body rotated into said recess and also having a conversion circuit for converting an electric power received from said rotatable plug body, wherein said rotatable plug body is in a first position when said pins of said plug body is accommodated in said recess of said AC-adapter housing and in a second position when said pins of said plus body is rotated out of said recess in an upright position with respect to said AC-adapter housing, said pin configuration adapter comprising:
An electrical connector assembly having an AC-adaptor housing and a pin configuration adapter, said AC-adapter housing having a recess formed therein comprising:
