Rechargeable battery-powered flashlight system
Patent
·
OSTI ID:6219294
A rechargeable battery-operated flashlight system includes a housing for the flashlight, batteries and associated circuitry. A two-pronged plug is rotatably mounted in the housing for movement between two positions, the prongs projecting outwardly through an opening in the housing so that in one position they project into a recess formed by a reentrant portion of the housing and in the other position they project away from the recess. Resilient contacts connect the prongs to the rest of the circuitry, and engage in detents on the prongs in their two positions to inhibit rotation thereof. A wall bracket defines a pocket for releasably accommodating a receptacle fixture for receiving the plug prongs in their one position and for supporting the housing during recharging. In their other position, the prongs can be plugged directly into an AC wall outlet.
