The piezoelectric body of the piezoelectric element is typically
It is made of a piezoelectric ceramic material in the form of a diaphragm, that is, in the form of a film or a thin plate, and is typically bonded or affixed to a metal sound emitting plate via a bonding layer, and the sound emitting plate is attached to the battery lid main body at the peripheral portion. Fixed. More specifically, typically, a recess is formed in the battery lid main body to provide a space or cavity for sound emission, and the outer peripheral edge portion of the sound emitting plate that functions as a vibration film or a diaphragm is fixed to the peripheral wall of the recess. As a result, the vibration of the piezoelectric element generated by the driving signal is transmitted to the sound emitting plate and is sounded (that is, the diaphragm or film including the sound emitting plate whose outer peripheral edge is fixed and the piezoelectric element bonded to the sound emitting plate). Is generated by vibrating in response to a stress fluctuation occurring in the piezoelectric element along with a driving voltage signal applied to the piezoelectric element). The sound emitting plate and the piezoelectric element are typically circular, but may have other shapes. When the sound emitting plate and the piezoelectric element are circular, the electrodes on the surface of the piezoelectric element are also typically circular. However, the electrodes may have other shapes, and
The shapes of both do not have to be similar. The sound emitting plate is typically a metal such as stainless steel or brass. In that case,
The electrode on the back side of the piezoelectric element may also serve as a sound emitting plate to which the thin film piezoelectric material of the thin film piezoelectric element is bonded via a bonding layer. Here, the bonding layer enhances the electrical contact and mechanical coupling strength between the piezoelectric element and the sound emitting plate. However, in some cases, the sound emitting plate may be made of other material such as resin or ceramic material instead of metal. If desired, the thin plate piezoelectric element may be provided at the outer peripheral portion of the battery without using the sound emitting plate. It may be fixed directly to the lid body.

In the electronic device of the present invention, typically, the battery lid main body is provided with a lead terminal mounting recess on the inner surface thereof, and the lead terminal is fitted into the recess at the base end portion having a shape complementary to the lead terminal mounting recess. It is inserted and fixed to the battery lid body.
In that case, since the peripheral wall of the lead terminal mounting recess restricts the movement of the base end portion of the lead terminal, even if the lead terminal receives an external force in the direction along the extending surface of the terminal when the battery lid is opened and closed, There is little risk of displacement, and there is less risk of the contact on the tip side of the lead terminal rubbing the inner surface electrode of the piezoelectric element. Further, instead of the recessed portion or together with the recessed portion, a protruding portion may be formed on the battery lid main body, and the lead terminal may be provided with a recessed portion or a through hole having a shape complementary to the protruding portion. However, if the base end portion of the lead terminal can be firmly fixed to the battery lid main body, the battery lid main body may not be provided with a lead terminal mounting recess or the like on the inner surface, if desired. .

Also, in this electronic device, typically, the lead terminals extend in the radial direction of the battery lid (beam shape).
An arm portion is provided, and a tip portion of the beam-shaped arm portion located along the rotation center of the battery lid is configured to come into contact with the inner surface electrode of the piezoelectric element. In that case,
The risk that the lead terminal receives a force that causes the contact to be displaced is minimized. However, in the case where the beam-shaped arm of the lead terminal has sufficient rigidity, the contact of the lead terminal may be offset from the center of rotation of the battery lid to some extent. In this case, the lead terminals may extend in the radial direction before or beyond the position corresponding to the central axis, or may extend beyond the position, or the lead terminals may extend in a direction different from the radial direction. .

Further, in this electronic device, typically, the beam-shaped arm portion of the lead terminal passes through the contact point with the inner surface electrode of the piezoelectric element and is on both sides at right angles to the extending direction of the beam-shaped arm portion. It has elastic support legs in the form of leaf springs, etc., which extend in the direction of abutting against the electrodes of the button-type battery at both ends. In that case, since the contacts can be elastically supported by the leaf spring-shaped support legs, even if the rigidity of the beam-shaped arm portion is relatively low, the inside of the piezoelectric element is strong enough to ensure electrical contact. It becomes possible to press the contact of the lead terminal against the surface electrode. The support legs typically have a symmetrical structure and shape, but in some cases, the structure or shape of the pair of support legs may be misaligned, or there may be an odd number of support legs. Further, when the rigidity of the beam-shaped arm portion is relatively high, the supporting leg portion may be omitted. Even if such a structure that requires a relatively wide lead terminal is adopted, it is possible to avoid the possibility of obstructing the attachment / detachment of the battery, as described above, the lead terminal is attached to the battery lid body. by.

In addition, in this electronic device, typically,
A dome-shaped contact protrusion is formed on a tip portion of the beam-shaped arm portion of the lead terminal that comes into contact with the inner surface electrode of the piezoelectric element. In that case, electrical contact with the electrode surface can be ensured without damaging the inner surface electrode of the piezoelectric element.
The dome-shaped projection is formed by, for example, a punch. However, depending on the case, it may be configured to provide a contact surface having another shape such as being bent in a dogleg shape.
