ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a charging seat for a flashlight, which is able to fixedly hold a rechargeable flashlight therein and charge the rechargeable flashlight directly.
2. Description of Related Art
Flashlights are not only useful in our homes for emergency use, but are also used in various special fields, e.g. technicians, security personnel, and the police. For various special purposes, these people use flashlights so frequently that energy of batteries received in the flashlight is consumed very quickly. If these batteries are discarded, a large amount of pollution is caused. Nowadays, rechargeable batteries are gradually becoming accepted by more and more consumers instead of conventional batteries that are used once. However, if the rechargeable batteries provided in a conventional flashlight need to be charged, they are removed first and then fitted in a charger. Afterwards the charged batteries are fitted in the flashlight again. The repeated removing and refitting of the batteries is troublesome to users who use the rechargeable flashlights frequently.
Therefore, it is an objective of the invention to provide an improved charger that is able to charge a flashlight directly to mitigate and/or obviate the aforementioned problems.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The object of the present invention is to provide a charging seat which comprises a holding device to fix a flashlight therein, an orientation device and a charging circuit, whereby a flashlight is directly fixed in the charging seat in a predetermined direction to be electrically connected with the charging circuit of the charger for charging.
The detailed features of the present invention will be apparent in the detailed description with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings.
