Description

この発明は、電子部品収納構造及び該構造を備えた電子機器に係り、例えば、携帯電話機等の携帯型の電子機器において、薄型の電子部品としての電池パックを収納するための電子部品収納構造、及び該構造を備えた電子機器に関する。 The present invention relates to an electronic component storage structure and an electronic device equipped with the structure, for example, an electronic component storage structure for storing a battery pack as a thin electronic component in a portable electronic device such as a mobile phone, And an electronic apparatus having the structure.

従来より、携帯型の電子機器としての例えば携帯電話機においては、携帯電話機本体に、充電可能なリチウムイオン二次電池等の電池からなる電池パックが着脱自在に装着され、この電池パックが交換可能なようになされている。
例えば、折畳み式の携帯電話機を構成する電源部（充電式電池パック部）１０１は、図１９に示すように、扁平な略直方体形状の電池パック１０２が下部筐体１０３のリアケース１０４の裏面側に設けられた比較的浅底の凹状の電池格納部１０５内に着脱自在に装着され、かつ、平板状の電池カバー（不図示）がリアケース１０４に着脱自在に取り着けられ、電池パック１０２が電池収納部１０５に収納された状態で、電池カバーによって覆われ、保護されて、概略構成されている（例えば、特許文献１、特許文献２等参照。）。 Conventionally, in a mobile phone as a portable electronic device, for example, a battery pack made of a battery such as a rechargeable lithium ion secondary battery is detachably attached to the mobile phone body, and the battery pack can be replaced. It is made like that.
For example, a power source unit (rechargeable battery pack unit) 101 constituting a foldable mobile phone has a flat battery pack 102 having a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape as shown in FIG. The battery pack 102 is detachably mounted in a relatively shallow concave battery storage portion 105 provided in the battery case, and a flat battery cover (not shown) is detachably attached to the rear case 104. In the state accommodated in the battery accommodating part 105, it is covered and protected by the battery cover, and is comprised schematically (for example, refer patent document 1, patent document 2, etc.).

電池格納部１０５は、リアケース１０４に一体的に形成され、電池パック１０２は、電池格納部１０５の底面部１０７に載置される。
ところが、経時変化や、過熱（過充電時や、高温下に放置した場合）によって、例えば、電解質が分解してガスが発生し、電池パック１０２の中央部が膨張する。 The battery storage unit 105 is formed integrally with the rear case 104, and the battery pack 102 is placed on the bottom surface part 107 of the battery storage unit 105.
However, due to a change with time or overheating (when overcharged or when left under high temperature), for example, the electrolyte is decomposed to generate gas, and the central portion of the battery pack 102 expands.

すなわち、電池パック１０２の裏面側の中央部が膨張すると、底面部１０７は容易に変形しない（硬い）ため、底面部１０７によって押し返されて、電池パック１０２自身を押し上げると共に、表面側の中央部も膨張する。
このため、電池パック１０２と電池カバーとの間には、膨張による変形を許容する（吸収する）ための隙間が設けられている。
特開２０００−３２３１１０号公報特開２００３−３３１２２３号公報 That is, when the central portion on the back surface side of the battery pack 102 expands, the bottom surface portion 107 is not easily deformed (hard), so that it is pushed back by the bottom surface portion 107 to push up the battery pack 102 itself. Also expands.
For this reason, a gap for allowing (absorbing) deformation due to expansion is provided between the battery pack 102 and the battery cover.

この例の携帯電話機は、図１に示すように、折畳可能な筐体を備えると共に、通話機能やデータ通信機能を有し、上部ユニットと下部ユニット１とが、折畳可能なようにヒンジ部で相互に結合されて構成されている。
上部ユニットは、扁平な上部筐体に、例えば液晶表示装置からなる表示部や、通話時に受話音声を出力する受話部等が実装されて概略構成され、下部ユニット１は、扁平な下部筐体２に、ＣＰＵ（中央処理装置）等からなる制御部や、ＲＯＭ、ＲＡＭ等の半導体メモリからなる記憶部、通話やデータ通信を行うための無線通信部、各種操作キー等からなる操作部、送話音声を入力する送話部、電池パックを有する電源部等が実装されて概略構成されている。 As shown in FIG. 1, the mobile phone of this example includes a foldable casing, a call function and a data communication function, and a hinge so that the upper unit and the lower unit 1 can be folded. The parts are connected to each other.
The upper unit is schematically configured by mounting, for example, a display unit composed of a liquid crystal display device, a receiving unit for outputting received voice during a call, and the like on a flat upper housing, and the lower unit 1 includes a flat lower housing 2. In addition, a control unit composed of a CPU (central processing unit), a storage unit composed of a semiconductor memory such as a ROM and a RAM, a wireless communication unit for performing telephone calls and data communication, an operation unit composed of various operation keys, A speech transmitter for inputting voice, a power supply unit having a battery pack, and the like are mounted and schematically configured.

下部筐体２は、例えばＡＢＳ樹脂等の合成樹脂成形品からなり、図１乃至図４に示すように、それぞれ、内面側を構成するフロントケース３と、外面側を構成するリアケース４とを有し、組み合されたフロントケース３とリアケース４とが、リブにおける嵌合によって、又は雌ねじや雄ねじ等の固定具による締付けによって、各種構成部品が内部に収納され、又は取り着けられた状態で、組み立てられてなっている。なお、上部筐体も、下部筐体２と同様の構成とされている。 The lower housing 2 is made of, for example, a synthetic resin molded product such as ABS resin. As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, each of the lower housing 2 includes a front case 3 constituting the inner surface side and a rear case 4 constituting the outer surface side. The assembled and assembled front case 3 and rear case 4 are housed in or attached to various components by fitting with ribs or by fastening with a fixing tool such as a female screw or a male screw. And it is assembled. The upper housing has the same configuration as the lower housing 2.

この例の電池パック収納構造６は、図１乃至図５に示すように、比較的薄いポリカーボネート等の合成樹脂製のシート状部材を用いて成形された箱型の電池受け台７が、リアケース４に形成された枠状部８に嵌め込まれて形成された電池収納部９の内部に、扁平な略直方体形状の電池パック１１が着脱自在に装着され、かつ、平板状の電池カバー１２がリアケース４に着脱自在に取り着けられ、電池パック１１が電池収納部９に収納された状態で、電池カバー１２によって覆われ保護されて、概略構成されている。
なお、この例では、電池パック１１の周側面のうち、接続端子が形成された側面とその対向面とは、電池受け台７の側面部１６によって押えられ、収納時にリアケース４の長さ方向に沿って配置される側面は、リアケース４に形成された立壁部１３の内壁面１３ａによって押えられる。 As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the battery pack housing structure 6 of this example includes a box-shaped battery cradle 7 formed by using a relatively thin sheet-like member made of synthetic resin such as polycarbonate. A flat battery pack 11 having a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape is detachably mounted in a battery housing part 9 formed by being fitted into a frame-like part 8 formed on the flat plate-shaped battery cover 12, and a flat battery cover 12 is provided on the rear side. The battery pack 11 is detachably attached to the case 4 and covered and protected by a battery cover 12 in a state where the battery pack 11 is housed in the battery housing portion 9.
In this example, of the peripheral side surfaces of the battery pack 11, the side surface on which the connection terminal is formed and the opposing surface are pressed by the side surface portion 16 of the battery cradle 7, and the length direction of the rear case 4 is stored. The side surface arranged along the inner wall 13 is pressed by the inner wall surface 13 a of the standing wall portion 13 formed in the rear case 4.

リアケース４の枠状部８の内面側には、図５に示すように、内壁面１３ａと外壁面１３ｂとを有し電池受け台７を取り付けるための立壁部１３が一対形成され、各立壁部１３の外壁面１３ｂの所定の部位には、電池受け台７の対応する嵌合凹部１６ｐに嵌合する略半円錐形状の嵌合凸部１３ｐが形成されている。 On the inner surface side of the frame-shaped portion 8 of the rear case 4, as shown in FIG. 5, a pair of standing wall portions 13 having an inner wall surface 13 a and an outer wall surface 13 b for attaching the battery cradle 7 are formed. In a predetermined portion of the outer wall surface 13b of the portion 13, a substantially semi-conical fitting convex portion 13p that fits into the corresponding fitting concave portion 16p of the battery cradle 7 is formed.

この例の枠状部８には、電池受け台７の底面部１５に対向する底面部が形成されていない（すなわち、開口されている。）。
なお、リアケース４の所定の部位（例えば、マイクロフォン及びバイブレータの配置箇所近傍と、電源端子及びＳＩＭ（Subscriber Identity Module）カードコネクタの配置箇所近傍）には、例えば、水没による水分の機器内への浸入を検出するための検出ラベルが貼着されている。この検出ラベルは、水分に触れることによって、例えば、赤色に発色される。 In the frame-shaped portion 8 of this example, a bottom surface portion facing the bottom surface portion 15 of the battery cradle 7 is not formed (that is, opened).
It should be noted that, for example, in the vicinity of predetermined positions of the rear case 4 (for example, in the vicinity of the microphone and vibrator placement locations and in the vicinity of the power supply terminal and SIM (Subscriber Identity Module) card connector placement) A detection label for detecting intrusion is attached. The detection label is colored red, for example, by touching moisture.

電池受け台７は、図６乃至図１５に示すように、電池パック１１を載置する底面部１５と、電池パック１１の周側面を囲む側面部１６とからなる無天井の箱型構造を有し、側面部１６のうち、立壁部１３に取り付けられ、互いに対向する２片の所定の部位には、外面側に略半円錐形状に湾曲された嵌合用湾曲部１６ａ，１６ａが形成され、各嵌合用湾曲部１６ａの内面側が、枠状部８の立壁部１３に形成された嵌合凸部１３ｐに嵌合する嵌合凹部１６ｐとされている。
この電池受け台７は、比較的薄い所定の厚さ（例えば、略０．１ｍｍ〜略０．４ｍｍ（この例では、略０．１５ｍｍ））のポリカーボネート等の耐候性及び透明性に優れた合成樹脂製のシート状部材を、例えば、真空成形により箱型に成形して作製されている。 As shown in FIGS. 6 to 15, the battery cradle 7 has a ceilingless box-shaped structure including a bottom surface portion 15 on which the battery pack 11 is placed and a side surface portion 16 surrounding the peripheral side surface of the battery pack 11. Then, of the side surface portion 16, fitting predetermined curved portions 16 a and 16 a that are curved in a substantially semiconical shape are formed on the outer surface side at predetermined portions of the two pieces that are attached to the standing wall portion 13 and face each other. The inner surface side of the fitting curved portion 16 a is a fitting recess 16 p that fits into the fitting projection 13 p formed on the standing wall portion 13 of the frame-like portion 8.
The battery cradle 7 is a synthetic material excellent in weather resistance and transparency, such as polycarbonate having a relatively thin predetermined thickness (for example, approximately 0.1 mm to approximately 0.4 mm (approximately 0.15 mm in this example)). For example, the resin sheet-like member is formed into a box shape by vacuum forming.

この電池受け台７においては、電池パック１１を保持するための所定の強度が確保されると共に、外力によって比較的容易に変形し、所定の範囲の大きさの外力によって弾性的に変形するように、かつ、可能な限り薄く、その厚さが設定される。
この電池受け台７の採用によって、筐体と一体的に形成され、電池パック１１を載置させるその凹状の電池収納部の底面部が、所定値以上の厚さ（例えば、略０．５ｍｍ以上）を有していた従来技術に比べ、電池格納部の薄型が図られる。 In the battery cradle 7, a predetermined strength for holding the battery pack 11 is secured, and the battery cradle 7 is deformed relatively easily by an external force, and is elastically deformed by an external force having a predetermined range of magnitude. And the thickness is set as thin as possible.
By adopting this battery cradle 7, the bottom surface of the concave battery housing portion that is integrally formed with the housing and on which the battery pack 11 is placed has a thickness greater than a predetermined value (for example, approximately 0.5 mm or more). ), The battery storage portion can be made thinner.

また、この例では、電池受け台７は、嵌合凸部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとの嵌合によって、底面部１５と、内部側に配置される例えば回路基板１８との間に所定の離隔が確保されるように、リアケース４によって保持される。
また、電池受け台７は、内部に電池パック１１をその変形を許容するように保持する。例えば、電池受け台７の底面部１５は、電池パック１１の経年変化や過熱による中央部の膨張に合わせて変形する。また、電池パック１１の表面と、電池カバー１２との間にも、所定の間隙が確保される。
なお、電池受け台７の底面部１５と、回路基板１８との間の間隙のうち、周縁部には、例えば、可撓性印刷回路としてのＦＰＣ（Flexible Printed Circuit）１９が配置されて、実装スペースとして活用される。 Further, in this example, the battery cradle 7 has a predetermined separation between the bottom surface portion 15 and, for example, the circuit board 18 disposed on the inner side by fitting the fitting convex portion 13p and the fitting concave portion 16p. Is secured by the rear case 4 so as to be secured.
In addition, the battery cradle 7 holds the battery pack 11 so as to allow deformation thereof. For example, the bottom surface portion 15 of the battery cradle 7 is deformed in accordance with the aging of the battery pack 11 and the expansion of the central portion due to overheating. A predetermined gap is also ensured between the surface of the battery pack 11 and the battery cover 12.
For example, an FPC (Flexible Printed Circuit) 19 as a flexible printed circuit is disposed at the periphery of the gap between the bottom surface portion 15 of the battery cradle 7 and the circuit board 18 and mounted. Used as a space.

電池受け台７が、リアケース４の枠状部８に押し込まれると、嵌合突部１３ｐの外面の傾斜面（受け面）に沿って、嵌合用湾曲部１６ａの嵌合凹部１６ｐの内面の傾斜面が接触しながら、嵌合突部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとが突っ張り、側面部１６が弾性的に変形し、徐々に強く嵌合されていき、側面部１６のうち、嵌合凹部１６ｐが形成された互いに対向する２片が両立壁部１３，１３を挟み込むようにして、電池受け台７は、枠状部８に収納された状態で取り付けられる。これにより、リアケース４を引っ繰り返しても、電池受け台７が脱落することはない。 When the battery cradle 7 is pushed into the frame-shaped portion 8 of the rear case 4, along the inclined surface (receiving surface) of the outer surface of the fitting protrusion 13p, the inner surface of the fitting recess 16p of the fitting bending portion 16a is formed. While the inclined surface is in contact, the fitting projection 13p and the fitting recess 16p are stretched, the side surface portion 16 is elastically deformed, and is gradually strongly fitted. Of the side surface portion 16, the fitting recess 16p The battery cradle 7 is attached in a state of being housed in the frame-shaped portion 8 so that the two opposing pieces formed with the sandwiching wall portions 13 and 13 sandwiched therebetween. Thereby, even if the rear case 4 is repeatedly pulled, the battery cradle 7 does not fall off.

なお、電池受け台７の底面部１５及び側面部１６の所定の部位には、図２及び図６に示すように、上記検出ラベルを視認するための透明な窓部１５ａ，１６ｂが形成され、窓部等以外の領域は、着色（印刷）されて、目隠し領域とされている。
また、底面部１５の所定の部位には、図６乃至図８に示すように、例えば、装置本体の製造番号ラベル貼付けのための一対の略Ｌ字状の位置決め用の透明な目印部１５ｂ，１５ｃが形成されている。
電池パック１１は、リチウムイオン二次電池等の充電可能な電池が格納された電池パック本体と、電池パック本体と携帯電話機本体とを電気的に接続するための端子接続部材と、端子接続部材が取り付けられた電池パック本体を保護する外装体とを有してなっている。 As shown in FIGS. 2 and 6, transparent windows 15a and 16b for visually recognizing the detection label are formed at predetermined portions of the bottom surface 15 and the side surface 16 of the battery cradle 7. Areas other than the window and the like are colored (printed) to be blindfolded areas.
Further, as shown in FIGS. 6 to 8, for example, a pair of substantially L-shaped transparent mark portions 15b for positioning for attaching a production number label to the apparatus main body, 15c is formed.
The battery pack 11 includes a battery pack body in which a rechargeable battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery is stored, a terminal connection member for electrically connecting the battery pack body and the mobile phone body, and a terminal connection member. And an exterior body that protects the attached battery pack body.

次に、この例の電池受け台の取付方法と、電池パック収納構造の機能とについて、図１４乃至図１６を用いて説明する。
電池受け台７をリアケース４に取り付けるには、図１４及び図１５に示すように、側面部１６の端部を枠状部８ヘ向けて、嵌合凹部１６ｐが嵌合凸部１３ｐに対応するように、位置合わせした後、電池受け台７を落とし込んでいく。 Next, the mounting method of the battery cradle and the function of the battery pack housing structure in this example will be described with reference to FIGS.
To attach the battery cradle 7 to the rear case 4, as shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, the end of the side surface portion 16 faces the frame-shaped portion 8, and the fitting recess 16p corresponds to the fitting projection 13p. After the alignment, the battery cradle 7 is dropped.

電池受け台７が、リアケース４の枠状部８に押し込まれると、嵌合突部１３ｐの外面の傾斜面に沿って、嵌合凹部１６ｐの傾斜面が接触しながら、嵌合突部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとが突っ張り、側面部１６が弾性的に変形し、徐々に強く嵌合されていく。
立壁部１３の端縁が、電池受け台７の底面部１５の載置面に突き当たると同時に、嵌合突部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとの嵌合が完了し、電池受け台７がリアケース４に取り付けられる。こうして、電池格納部９が形成される。
この後、電池受け台７が取り付けられたリアケース４を引っ繰り返して、電池格納部９に電池パック１１を収納する。 When the battery cradle 7 is pushed into the frame-shaped portion 8 of the rear case 4, the fitting protrusion 13p is brought into contact with the inclined surface of the fitting recess 16p along the inclined surface of the outer surface of the fitting protrusion 13p. And the fitting recess 16p are stretched, the side surface portion 16 is elastically deformed, and is gradually and strongly fitted.
At the same time that the edge of the standing wall portion 13 abuts against the mounting surface of the bottom surface portion 15 of the battery cradle 7, the fitting of the fitting protrusion 13p and the fitting recess 16p is completed, and the battery cradle 7 is in the rear case. 4 is attached. Thus, the battery storage unit 9 is formed.
Thereafter, the rear case 4 to which the battery cradle 7 is attached is repeated to store the battery pack 11 in the battery storage 9.

ここで、嵌合凹部１６ｐと嵌合凸部１３ｐとの嵌合によって、電池受け台７は、位置決めされた状態で、リアケース４によって保持されるので、リアケース４を引っ繰り返しても、電池受け台７が脱落することはない。
また、電池受け台７は、嵌合凸部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとの嵌合によって、底面部１５と、電池受け台７の内部側に配置された、例えば、回路基板１８との間には、所定の離隔が確保されるように、リアケース４によって保持される。この間隙のうち、周縁部には、例えば、ＦＰＣ１９が配置されて、実装スペースとして活用される。
電池格納部９に電池パック１１を収納した後、電池カバー１２を取り付ける。 Here, since the battery cradle 7 is held by the rear case 4 in a positioned state by fitting the fitting concave portion 16p and the fitting convex portion 13p, even if the rear case 4 is repeated, the battery The cradle 7 will not fall off.
Further, the battery cradle 7 is disposed between the bottom surface portion 15 and the inner side of the battery cradle 7, for example, between the circuit board 18 by fitting the fitting convex portion 13p and the fitting concave portion 16p. Is held by the rear case 4 so as to ensure a predetermined separation. For example, the FPC 19 is disposed at the peripheral edge of the gap, and is used as a mounting space.
After the battery pack 11 is stored in the battery storage unit 9, the battery cover 12 is attached.

電池パック収納構造６において、電池収納部９が、比較的薄いポリカーボネート等のシート状部材を用いて、例えば、真空成形により箱型に成形されてなる電池受け台７が、リアケース４に形成された枠状部８に嵌め込まれて形成され、底面部１５が、シート状部材の厚さまで低減されることによって、電池収納部の薄型化が図られる。 In the battery pack storage structure 6, the battery case 7 is formed in the rear case 4 in which the battery storage portion 9 is formed into a box shape by, for example, vacuum forming using a relatively thin sheet member such as polycarbonate. The battery housing portion can be made thinner by being formed by fitting into the frame-like portion 8 and the bottom surface portion 15 being reduced to the thickness of the sheet-like member.

電池パック１１が、経時変化や過熱等によって、図１６に示すように、電池パック１１の両側に膨張して変形しようとすると、電池パック１１の裏面側への変形は、比較的柔らかい電池受け台７の底面部１５が容易に変形することによって許容されて（吸収されて）、この変形分（膨張分）１１ａは、予め確保された底面部１５と、例えば回路基板１８との間の所定の間隙内に収まる。また、電池パック１１の表面側への変形は、間隙が確保されていることによって許容されて（吸収されて）、電池パック１１と電池カバー１２との間の間隙内に収まる。こうして、例えば、電池パック１１及び電池収納部９が損傷することが回避される。 When the battery pack 11 is expanded and deformed on both sides of the battery pack 11 due to a change with time, overheating, etc., the battery pack 11 is deformed toward the back surface side relatively softly. 7 is allowed (absorbed) by being easily deformed, and this deformation (expansion) 11a is a predetermined amount between the previously secured bottom surface 15 and the circuit board 18, for example. Fits in the gap. Further, the deformation of the battery pack 11 toward the surface side is allowed (absorbed) when the gap is secured and is accommodated in the gap between the battery pack 11 and the battery cover 12. Thus, for example, damage to the battery pack 11 and the battery storage unit 9 is avoided.

このように、この例の構成によれば、電池収納部９が、比較的薄いポリカーボネート等のシート状部材を用いて、例えば、真空成形により箱型に成形されてなる電池受け台７が、リアケース４に形成された枠状部８に嵌め込まれて形成されているので、電池収納部の薄型化を図ることができる。
すなわち、この電池受け台７の採用によって、筐体と一体的に形成され、電池パック１１を載置させるその凹状の電池収納部の底面部が、所定以上の厚さ（例えば、０．５ｍｍ以上）を有していた従来技術に比べ、電池パック１１が載置される底面部１５を、シート状部材の厚さまで低減することができるので、携帯電話機の電池格納部９を薄型化することができる。
しかも、電池受け台７は、電池パック１１を保持するための所定の強度が確保されるように、その厚さが設定されているので、電池パック１１を確実に保持することができる。 As described above, according to the configuration of this example, the battery holder 9 is formed by using a relatively thin sheet-like member such as polycarbonate, for example, by vacuum forming into a box shape. Since it is formed by being fitted into the frame-shaped portion 8 formed in the case 4, the battery housing portion can be made thinner.
That is, by adopting this battery cradle 7, the bottom surface portion of the concave battery housing portion that is formed integrally with the housing and on which the battery pack 11 is placed has a predetermined thickness (for example, 0.5 mm or more). ), The bottom surface portion 15 on which the battery pack 11 is placed can be reduced to the thickness of the sheet-like member, so that the battery storage portion 9 of the mobile phone can be thinned. it can.
In addition, since the thickness of the battery cradle 7 is set so that a predetermined strength for holding the battery pack 11 is secured, the battery pack 11 can be reliably held.

また、電池受け台７の側面部１６には、略半円錐形状の嵌合凹部１６ｐが形成され、リアケース４には、嵌合凹部１６ｐに嵌め込まれる略半円錐形状の嵌合凸部１３ｐが形成され、嵌合凹部１６ｐと嵌合凸部１３ｐとの嵌合によって、電池受け台７は、位置決めされた状態で、リアケース４によって保持されるので、リアケース４を引っくり返しても、電池受け台７が脱落することはない。
また、電池受け台７をリアケース４の枠状部８に落とし込むだけで、簡単に、電池受け台７をリアケース４に取り付けることができる。したがって、組立時の作業性を向上させることができる。 Further, a substantially semiconical fitting recess 16p is formed on the side surface 16 of the battery cradle 7, and a substantially semiconical fitting protrusion 13p fitted into the fitting recess 16p is formed on the rear case 4. The battery holder 7 is formed and is held by the rear case 4 in a positioned state by fitting between the fitting concave portion 16p and the fitting convex portion 13p. The base 7 will not fall off.
Further, the battery cradle 7 can be easily attached to the rear case 4 simply by dropping the battery cradle 7 into the frame-like portion 8 of the rear case 4. Therefore, workability at the time of assembly can be improved.

また、電池受け台７が、リアケース４の枠状部８に押し込まれると、嵌合突部１３ｐの外面の傾斜面に沿って、嵌合凹部１６ｐの傾斜面が接触しながら、嵌合突部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとが突っ張り、側面部１６が弾性的に変形し、徐々に強く嵌合されていくので、円滑に、かつ、確実に、電池受け台７をリアケース４に取り付けることができる。 Further, when the battery cradle 7 is pushed into the frame-shaped portion 8 of the rear case 4, the fitting protrusion is brought into contact with the inclined surface of the fitting recess 16p along the inclined surface of the outer surface of the fitting protrusion 13p. Since the portion 13p and the fitting recess 16p are stretched and the side surface portion 16 is elastically deformed and gradually fits strongly, the battery cradle 7 is attached to the rear case 4 smoothly and surely. Can do.

また、電池受け台７は、嵌合凸部１３ｐと嵌合凹部１６ｐとの嵌合によって、底面部１５と、電池受け台７の内部側に配置された、例えば、回路基板１８との間に所定の離隔が確保されるように、リアケース４によって保持され、電池パック１１の表面と、電池カバー１２との間にも、所定の間隙が確保され、かつ、電池受け台７は、その内部に電池パック１１を変形を許容するように保持するので、電池パック１１が経時変化や過熱等によって、電池パック１１の両側に変形しようとしても、電池パック１１の裏面側への変形は、比較的柔らかい電池受け台７の底面部１５が容易に変形することによって、電池パック１１の表面側への変形は、間隙が確保されていることによって許容されて（吸収されて）、例えば、電池パック１１及び電池収納部９が損傷することを回避することができる。 Further, the battery cradle 7 is disposed between the bottom surface portion 15 and the inner side of the battery cradle 7, for example, between the circuit board 18 by fitting the fitting convex portion 13p and the fitting concave portion 16p. It is held by the rear case 4 so as to ensure a predetermined separation, a predetermined gap is secured between the surface of the battery pack 11 and the battery cover 12, and the battery cradle 7 Since the battery pack 11 is held so as to allow deformation, even if the battery pack 11 is deformed to both sides of the battery pack 11 due to aging or overheating, the deformation of the battery pack 11 to the back side is relatively When the bottom surface portion 15 of the soft battery cradle 7 is easily deformed, deformation of the battery pack 11 toward the surface side is permitted (absorbed) by ensuring a gap, and for example, the battery pack 11 And electric It is possible to avoid that the housing portion 9 may be damaged.

また、電池受け台７の底面部１５と、回路基板１８との間の間隙のうち、周縁部には、例えば、可撓性印刷回路としてのＦＰＣ１９が配置されて、実装スペースとして活用されるので、実装密度を向上させることができる。 Further, in the gap between the bottom surface portion 15 of the battery cradle 7 and the circuit board 18, for example, an FPC 19 as a flexible printed circuit is disposed at the peripheral portion, and is used as a mounting space. , Mounting density can be improved.
