Design

I am trying to make a adapter program.
-There can be different kind of adapters, which each can take data from

one source.
-It should be possible to plugin the new adapter for a new source of
data.
-The adapters all make a common structure to give it to the connected
clients. (I have implemented this part).
-Each adapter uses a specific API to collect data from data source.

How the design of the adapter class should look like? Which design
pattern?
There should probably be a superclass for all adapters, right? But they

use different APIs, as I said before, and one of the adapters inherits
already from couple of data source API classes.

Thanks.

Regards
mojtaba
