The cover 11 is hinged to the instrument body 10 at the lower portion 12 and is locked to the instrument body 10 by an upper locking hook 14.

  In the instrument main body 10, the base body impregnated with an insect repellent component is connected to the output shaft of the electric motor. When the switch member 18 on the front surface of the main body is turned on, the substrate is rotated, and the insect repellent component is volatilized outside through the volatilization opening 11a. In the switch-on state, the lamp 19 is lit.

≪Configuration of battery compartment and battery cover≫
FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the chemical volatilization device viewed from the back side. FIG. 3 shows a state where the battery cover 30 is slightly opened, and FIG. 4 shows a state where the battery cover 30 is further opened. This chemical volatilization device is a portable type that can be attached to the body by hooking the hook portion 60 on a belt or the like (fixed object) worn by the user. Moreover, it can also be hung on a tree branch, a wall, etc. using the hook part 13 provided in the upper part of the instrument main body 10, and can also be used.

  On the back side of the instrument body 10, a battery housing chamber 20 for housing a motor-dried dry battery is provided. In the illustrated example, the battery lid 30 that opens and closes the battery housing chamber 20 includes a lid portion 40, an arm portion 50, and a hook portion 60.

The lid portion 40 is a portion that directly covers the battery housing chamber 20, and is provided with a hook locking portion (closing locking portion) 41 at one end edge.
The arm portion 50 is an elongated plate-like member extending from the lid portion 40, and a rotation shaft (always locking portion) 51 is formed at the tip portion thereof.
The hook portion 60 is folded back from the position where the rotation shaft 51 at the tip of the arm portion 50 is provided, and extends to the vicinity of the lid portion 40.

  As shown in FIG. 2, when the battery lid 30 is closed, the lid portion 40 and the arm portion 50 constitute a part of the outer wall surface 10 a of the instrument body 10. The medicine volatilization device can be attached to the body by sandwiching and holding a belt or the like (fixed object) worn by the user between the outer wall surface configured as described above and the hook portion 60.

Two opposing locking projections 15a and 15b are provided on the outer wall surface 10a of the instrument body 10, and the end of the arm portion 50 is rotated in the hole formed in each locking projection 15a and 15b. A moving shaft 51 is fitted. In this way, the battery lid 30 is connected to the instrument body 10 and rotates about the rotation shaft 51.
On the other hand, the hook locking portion 41 provided in the lid portion 40 engages with the locking portion 21 formed at one end of the battery housing chamber 20 when the lid is closed, and maintains the closed state. Then, it is detached from the locking portion 21.

The rotating shaft 51 constitutes the “always latching portion” in the present invention, while the hook latching portion 41 constitutes the “closing lid latching portion” in the present invention.
That is, the rotating shaft 51 is connected to the instrument body 10 and separated in both cases in the closed state where the battery cover 30 is closed and in the open state where the battery cover 30 is opened. There is no. On the other hand, the hook locking portion 41 is connected to the instrument body 10 only in the closed state, and is separated from the instrument body 10 in the opened state.

In the lid portion 40, slits 43 a and 43 b are provided at both side positions of the hook locking portion 41. Providing such slits 43a and 43b facilitates the elastic displacement of the hook locking portion 41 when engaging and disengaging the locking portion 21 on the instrument body 10 side.
That is, since the region 42 between the slits 43a and 43b can be easily bent by pressing with a finger, the hook locking portion 41 engaged with the locking portion 21 can be easily removed. Further, when the battery cover 30 is closed, the force required to push the cover part 40 and engage the hook locking part 41 with the locking part 21 can be reduced.

  As described above, the battery lid 30 as a whole is always connected to the instrument body 10 and is not separated, so that it cannot be lost.

<< Other Embodiments >>
From the viewpoint of preventing the battery lid from being lost, the specific form of the chemical volatilization device of the present invention is not limited to that shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, and at least “in either the closed state or the open state” It is sufficient if the battery lid is provided with the “normally-locking portion connected to the device main body 10” and “the locking portion when closed when connected to the device main body 10 only in the closed state”.

  For example, as shown in FIG. 5, the battery lid 30 ′ is configured with a single plate material, and one end of the battery lid 30 ′ and one end of the battery housing chamber 20 are connected in a hinge manner (in FIG. 5, The “continuous locking portion” may be configured by connecting a portion indicated by A). In this case, the “locking portion at the time of closing” is configured by the hook locking portion 41 as in the embodiment shown in FIGS. That is, the hook locking portion 41 is engaged with the locking portion 21 formed at one end of the battery housing chamber 20 to maintain the closed state.

  However, the embodiment shown in FIGS. 2 to 4 has the following advantages over the embodiment of FIG.

<< Advantage 1 of Embodiment shown in FIGS. 2-4 >>
When the battery cover 30 is fully opened, access to the battery housing chamber 20 from any direction of 360 ° is possible, so battery replacement work is easy. In the example of FIG. 5, the battery lid 30 ′ itself becomes an obstacle, and access from above in the figure is restricted.

<< Advantage 2 of Embodiment shown in FIGS. 2-4 >>
Since the hook part 60 for attachment to the body is formed integrally with the battery lid 30, the large hook part 60 can be adopted while keeping the instrument body 10 itself small, and as a result, attachment to the body. Not only will the work be easy, but it will also be possible to install firmly.
In the example of FIG. 5, if it is intended to adopt a hook part that is a separate member from the battery cover 30 ′ and has the same size as that shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, the battery cover 30 ′ is correspondingly increased. The upper wall surface 10a 'must be ensured in a large area, and the instrument becomes larger by that amount.
In the example shown in FIGS. 2 to 4, such inconvenience is prevented by adopting the battery lid 30 formed by integrating the lid portion 40 and the hook portion 60.
