welcome to FIRST and the Chiefdelphi Community!
It doesn't look like there is a transformer in there - and if the charger is only rated at 60Hz 120V, then you need a transformer (converter) and not just an adapter.

The adapters are for things such as laptop power supplies and electric shaver's that will run at 220 50-60Hz but just have the wrong plug.
