Abstract
Abstract An adapter structure for computer connector, which is connectable between a connecting port of a computer and a burglarproof lock. The adapter structure includes a main body. A front adaptation end is disposed on an end face of the main body. The front adaptation end has multiple conductive terminals for electrically connecting with the connecting port of the computer. A connecting end is disposed on a wall face of the main body and connectable with the burglarproof lock. Through holes are formed on two sides of the main body, permitting bolts or threaded sections of the burglarproof lock to pass therethrough. An electric output end is disposed on the main body and has a carrier section and locking sections on two sides thereof. The carrier section is formed with multiple sockets electrically connected with the conductive terminals of the front adaptation end. The electric output end is selectively connectable with a connector of a computer transmission system.
