Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the generation of contact failure due to the dirty in a terminal part of a battery pack of a handy terminal to be used for the food- service industry (restaurant, pub, fast-food or the like). SOLUTION: In a battery pack, both of a plus electrode 12 and a minus electrode 13 are provided in each recessed part 14 of a battery pack equipment body so that the terminal contact part 22 of a contact is formed into the structure for preventing the intrusion of finger, and adhesion of dirty is thereby prevented. Furthermore, in order to prevent the generation of contact failure and instantaneous stop of service due to the adhesion of dirty, a contact terminal is formed into a U-shape for multipoint contact, and contact area is thereby secured. A tip 21 of a contact folded into the U-shape is provided deeper than the most outside periphery of the battery pack equipment body so as to prevent the generation of short-circuit.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a battery pack 1 of a handy terminal, which is one of the systems used in a restaurant (restaurant, izakaya, fast food, etc.), has a positive terminal 2 and a negative terminal 2 which are contact terminal portions when a battery is replaced or a charger is inserted in use environment. The pole 3 was touched with bare hands, and at that time dirt was attached. Also, the contacts 4 and 5 on the handy terminal side were one point for each of the plus pole 2 and the minus pole 3. Therefore, poor contact was likely to occur. In addition, since the plus and minus poles are arranged on the same surface, there is a risk of short-circuiting if the pole is placed on a stainless steel table in a restaurant kitchen, for example.

In a use environment in a restaurant (restaurant, izakaya, fast food, etc.), dirt is almost always adhered to the terminal portion of the battery pack. Therefore, dirt adheres but does not cause poor contact. In addition, it is necessary to ensure sufficient contact to prevent poor contact and instantaneous power failure. In addition, the contact layout is designed to prevent short circuits, no matter how careless or untreated.

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION In a battery pack according to the present invention, both positive and negative poles are laid out on a part of the battery pack housing in which a part of the battery pack is recessed. There was no structure. As a result, although the portion of the contact terminal closest to the surface of the battery pack housing touches, the finger or the like does not reach the contact portion with the contact terminal of the handy terminal or the charger, so that the adhesion of dirt can be prevented. Except for dirt that comes in contact with a finger or the like directly, as long as the dirt does not cover the entire contact terminal, the contact terminal of the other party (handy terminal / charger) should be a multi-point contact. A U-shaped terminal structure was adopted so that a contact area enough for point contact could be provided somewhere. This prevents the contacts on the other end (handy terminal / charger) from getting dirty and causing poor contact or instantaneous power failure. Also, the tip of the U-shaped bent contact is laid out deeper than the outermost periphery of the battery pack case, so that it is not short-circuited even if it is inadvertently placed on a metal tray or table.

FIG. 2 shows the appearance of the battery pack 11. In the battery pack 11 of the present embodiment, plus and minus 2
It has two contact terminal portions, and the both poles of the positive pole 12 and the negative pole 13 are laid out in a portion 14 in which a part of the battery pack housing is recessed, and the terminal contact portion of the contact does not allow a finger or the like to enter. Structured. FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of the positive electrode 12. From this FIG.
2, the portion 21 closest to the surface of the battery pack housing
Although touching, a finger or the like does not reach the contact portion 22 with the contact terminal of the handy terminal or the charger, so that adhesion of dirt can be prevented. In addition, as long as the entire surface of the contact terminal is not covered with dirt except for the dirt which is caused by direct contact with a finger or the like, as shown in FIG. , Minus pole 42
Is made into a U-shaped terminal structure so that a contact area that allows a point contact at any point is always provided if a multipoint contact is used. This prevents the contacts on the other end (handy terminal / charger) from getting dirty and causing poor contact or instantaneous power failure. Also, the tip of the U-shaped bent contact is laid out deeper than the outermost periphery of the battery pack case, so that it is not short-circuited even if it is inadvertently placed on a metal tray or table.

According to the present invention, as described above, the present invention is intended to improve the poor contact of the contacts, and it is impossible to change the operating environment. This is a structure from two sides for measures against contact failure in the case of contact. Even if the battery pack is touched with bare hands that are slightly dirty, by laying out the contacts themselves in the recesses of the battery pack, you will not touch the contact parts of the contacts,
There is an effect that the adhesion of dirt from hands is eliminated. In addition, the U-shaped terminal structure allows the contact area to be increased, and unless the dirt covers the entire surface of the contact terminal except for the dirt that is attached due to direct contact with a finger or the like,
By making the contact terminal of the other party (handy terminal / charger) a multipoint contact, there is an effect that the probability of the contact getting on the dirt can be reduced, and the resulting contact failure and instantaneous power failure can be eliminated. In addition, the terminal of the U-shaped structure is retracted farther from the outermost periphery of the battery pack housing, so that even if the battery pack is placed on a metal tray or table casually, there is no short circuit. There is also a safety measure effect.
