It is a cutable piece that can be pulled down and formed in the direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the terminal piece 2 and extending in the vicinity of the movable terminal piece 2 and is cut in parallel. The end on the side of the piece 2 is formed as a protrusion 4 a protruding into the case 1. As shown in FIG. 1C, the operation lever 4 has a substantially L-shaped side section.

  Further, the movable terminal piece 2 integrally has a flat piece 2a that is contacted and supported on the bottom surface of the case 1, and the protrusion 4a of the operation lever 4 is provided at a predetermined position located on the other peripheral wall side of the flat piece 2a. A locking hole 2b is provided for inserting and locking. With reference to FIG. 1 (c), the movable terminal piece 2 is configured such that the distance to the fixed terminal piece 3 can be changed by providing the terminal plate so as to stand on the slide plate in the case 1. The side cross-sectional shape is substantially T-shaped. Further, as shown in FIGS. 1B and 1C, the movable terminal piece 2 is positioned on the other peripheral wall side of the flat piece 2a when the primary battery 5 is housed and mounted without the operation lever 4 being pulled down. When the secondary battery is housed and mounted as will be described later, the protruding portion 4a of the operating lever 4 is inserted into the locking hole 2b of the flat piece 2a. It has become so.

  That is, in FIGS. 1A to 1C, the secondary battery 5 is held by contact and locking of the tip of the movable terminal piece 2 positioned on the other peripheral wall side of the flat piece 2 a and the protrusion 4 a of the operation lever 4. The primary battery 5 is sandwiched between the fixed terminal piece 3 and the movable terminal piece 2 in the case 1 and electrically connected to the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal in a fixed state for storage and mounting. (In this example, six primary AA batteries 6 are housed and mounted. However, a single battery or an AA battery may be used, and the number of batteries used is arbitrary. Can be set).

  FIG. 2 illustrates a switching procedure of positioning and fixing with respect to the movable terminal piece 2 by the operation of the operation lever 4 required for storing and replacing the primary battery 5 to the secondary battery in the compatible mounting type battery box for the primary battery and the secondary battery. It is side surface sectional drawing shown in order to do.

  In this battery box, when the storage and mounting are exchanged from the primary battery 5 to the secondary battery, the local part of the other peripheral wall facing the fixed terminal piece 3 in the operation lever 4 is pulled down in the direction of the arrow in the figure, and the movable terminal The movable terminal after releasing the locking state (positioning and fixing for housing and mounting the primary battery) due to the contact between the tip of the flat piece 2a of the piece 2 located on the other peripheral wall side and the protrusion 4a of the operation lever 4 After the piece 2 is slid toward the other peripheral wall in the direction of the arrow shown in the figure to increase the distance between the terminal pieces, the pulling operation is released to return to the original position, and then the flat piece 2a has a locking hole 2b. Then, positioning and fixing for storing and mounting the secondary battery is performed by inserting the protrusion 4 a of the operation lever 4.

  FIG. 3 shows a basic structure of the compatible mounting type battery box for the primary battery and the secondary battery in the storage and mounting state with respect to the secondary battery 6 with the upper cover removed, and FIG. The figure relates to the figure, (b) relates to a plan view from the upper surface direction, and (c) relates to the side sectional view in the direction of the arrows A-A 'in FIG.

  3 (a) to 3 (c), as described above, the secondary battery 6 by the insertion locking of the protrusion 4a of the operating lever 4 with respect to the locking hole 2b of the flat piece 2a in the movable terminal piece 2 is provided. The secondary battery 6 is sandwiched between the fixed terminal piece 3 and the movable terminal piece 2 in the case 1 and electrically connected to the positive electrode terminal and the negative electrode terminal. It shows a state of storage and mounting by connecting. Incidentally, when the secondary battery 6 is housed and mounted, the load is relaxed and the distance of the negative electrode terminal is wider than when the primary battery 5 is housed and mounted, so the negative electrode terminal is used as a spring for fixing the secondary battery 6. .

  As described above, the compatible mounting type battery box for the primary battery and the secondary battery according to the first embodiment positions and fixes the movable terminal piece 2 when the operation lever 4 is operated, so that the primary battery 5 and the secondary battery 6 are Those having different outer dimensions and output voltages can be sandwiched between the fixed terminal piece 3 and the movable terminal piece 2 in the same case 1 and electrically connected to the positive terminal and the negative terminal to be mounted in a compatible manner. .

  The compatible mounting type battery box for the primary battery and the secondary battery according to Example 2 is the embodiment of the structure of the second embodiment described above, and has a function capable of mounting the primary battery 5 and the secondary battery 6 in a compatible manner.

Therefore, the description will be made using the reference numerals in the first embodiment as they are after being simplified.

  The basic structure is such that one of the opposing terminal pieces is fixed to the fixed terminal piece 3 attached to the circumferential wall of the case 1 and the other is the outer dimensions of the primary battery 5 and the secondary battery 6. Accordingly, the fixed terminal piece 3 is fixed in the case 1 by being positioned in a direction perpendicular to the extending direction of the fixed terminal piece 3 so as to have a predetermined interval with respect to the fixed terminal piece 3 and inserted and fixed in the case 1. With respect to a predetermined portion of another opposing peripheral wall positioned while the terminal piece 3 and the insertion terminal piece are opposed to each other, the insertion terminal piece is inserted at a first position parallel to the extending direction of the fixed terminal piece 3 and the insertion terminal piece. A first mounting portion for positioning and fixing the primary battery 5 so that the primary battery 5 can be housed and mounted; and a second position parallel to the extending direction of the fixed terminal piece 3 and the insertion terminal piece at a position different from the first position Insert the plug terminal with In so that the provision of a second mounting portion for housing mountable positioned and fixed to the secondary battery 6.

  For this reason, as a detailed structure, the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion are recessed grooves provided in the first position and the second position, respectively, in different opposing peripheral walls in the case 1. It is. Further, the concave groove is on the first line connecting the opposing ones of the first positions on the bottom surface for mounting and supporting the primary battery and the secondary battery in the case 1 and the second positions are opposed to each other. It may be provided over the second line connecting the objects.

  Also in the compatible mounting type battery box for the primary battery and the secondary battery according to the third embodiment, by inserting and inserting the insertion terminal piece into the concave groove at the first position or the second position, the primary battery 5, A secondary battery 6 having different external dimensions and output voltage is sandwiched between the fixed terminal piece 3 and the movable terminal piece 2 in the same case 1 and electrically connected to the positive terminal and the negative terminal to be stored in a compatible manner. Can be implemented. Note that the plug-in terminal piece here is also inserted and mounted in the case 1 in a normal state regardless of whether or not a battery is used, so that it is separately managed when not used like a conventional dedicated part. It is a part of case 1 that is not necessary.
