Outlet enclosure for device chargers

摘要

An enclosure includes a housing adapted to cover at least the body of a power adaptor of a device charger. The housing has an opening to allow access to the charging wire port of the power adaptor. The opening is smaller than the power adaptor, so the power adaptor cannot be removed from the housing through the window. Further, the window can permit the charging wire plug to be plugged into and removed from the charging wire port while the power adaptor remains in the housing. The housing further includes charging wire trap which captures the charging wire. The charging wire trap holds the wire between the charging wire plug and the device interface. The charging wire trap is sized to not allow either the charging wire plug or the device interface to pass through it. The enclosure can also include an anchor point attached to the housing.
