Abstract

An interface conversion adapter, configured to be inserted into a plug-in interface of an electronic apparatus to convert a plug-in electrical connection manner of the plug-in interface into a surface contact electrical connection manner, where the interface conversion adapter includes a contact end and a plug-connected end electrically connected to the contact end; the plug-connected end is electrically inserted into the plug-in interface of the electronic apparatus; the contact end is exposed out of the plug-in interface; and several conductive contacts are provided on a surface, exposed out of the plug-in interface, of the contact end. A plug-in connector interface of the electronic apparatus can be converted into surface contact conductive contacts by using the interface conversion adapter. The present invention further relates to an electrical connection device with the interface conversion adapter.
