A battery housing 3s is provided. Specifically, the battery housing portion 3s is positioned at two locations near the corner portions 3h and 3i on both sides of the support portion 2A of the end portion 3e of the housing 3A. The battery housing 3s is configured as a rectangular recess (opening) in which the end 3e is recessed (notched) toward the opposite end 3c. The battery 18 is attached so as to cover (close or fill) the recess (opening). The battery 18 extends along the end 3e. In this embodiment, as an example, when the AC power source cannot be used, the power source power of the television receiver 1A can be obtained by the battery 18.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIG. 3, at the end 3 c opposite to the end 3 e provided with the battery housing 3 s, the first member 3 </ b> Fr, the second member 3 </ b> Rr, and the first member 3 </ b> Rr At least one of the three members 3Md (in the present embodiment, the second member 3Rr as an example) is connected to the walls 30e, 30h (engagement portion, claw portion, hook portion, hook portion) of the wall portion of the housing 3A. It is located inside the housing 3A from 3n. That is, the coupling portions 30e and 30h are covered with at least one of the first member 3Fr and the third member 3Md. Therefore, according to this embodiment, as an example, it is possible to suppress the coupling portions 30e and 30h from being exposed. Therefore, for example, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of inconvenience due to the coupling portions 30e and 30h being exposed to the outside of the housing 3A such that the coupling is easily released and the aesthetic appearance is easily impaired.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, the coupling portion 30h of at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (in the present embodiment, the second member 3Rr as an example) is coupled to the first member 3Fr. It is located outside the housing 3A from the part 30e. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as an example, the first member 3Fr is at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md by the engagement (coupling) of the coupling portions 30e and 30h (in the present embodiment, as an example). The movement of the second member 3Rr) from the end 3e side to the end 3c side (from the lower side to the upper side in FIG. 3) is suppressed. Further, in the present embodiment, the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md are prevented from being separated in the thickness direction of the housing 3A by the engagement (coupling) of the coupling portions 30e and 30h. Yes. In the present embodiment, the first member 3Fr is at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (in the present embodiment, as an example, depending on the engagement (coupling) of the coupling portions 30e and 30h. The movement from the end 3c side to the end 3e side (from the upper side to the lower side in FIG. 3) with respect to the member 3Rr) is not suppressed. The coupling part 30e is an example of a first coupling part, and the coupling part 30h is an example of a second coupling part.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIG. 4, at the end 3e provided with the battery housing 3s, at least one of the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md. On the other hand (the third member 3Md as an example in this embodiment), the coupling portions 30c, 30y (engagement portion, claw portion, hook portion, hook portion) are located outside the housing 3A from the wall portion 3n of the housing 3A. Is located. Further, the coupling portions 30c and 30y are coupled by a screw 10 as an example of a coupling tool. The coupling portion 30c has a protruding portion 31m provided with an opening 31k (a through hole, a notch, etc., in the present embodiment, as an example, a through hole). The protrusion 31m protrudes in the thickness direction of the housing 3A from the wall 3k toward the wall 3m. The protrusion 31m extends along the outer surface of the wall 3n. That is, the protrusion 31m (the coupling portion 30c) covers the wall 3n of the housing 3A from the outside of the housing 3A. The coupling portion 30y is provided on the wall portion 3n. The coupling portion 30y is provided with a female screw hole 30y1 as a portion to which the screw 10 as the coupling tool is fixed. The screw 10 is passed through the opening 31k from the outside of the housing 3A and is coupled to the female screw hole 30y1. Thereby, the coupling | bond parts 30c and 30y are couple | bonded by the screw 10 as a coupling tool.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, the coupling portion 30y of at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (in this embodiment, the third member 3Md as an example) is the coupling portion 30c of the first member 3Fr. It is located inside the housing 3A. Therefore, in the present embodiment, as an example, the first member 3Fr is at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md by the engagement of the coupling portions 30c and 30y when the screw 10 is not coupled ( In the present embodiment, as an example, movement from the end 3e side to the end 3c side (from the right side to the left side in FIG. 4) with respect to the second member 3Rr) is suppressed. In the present embodiment, the first member 3Fr is at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md depending on the engagement of the coupling portions 30e and 30h when the screw 10 is not coupled (this embodiment) In the embodiment, as an example, movement from the end 3c side to the end 3e side (from the left side to the right side in FIG. 4) with respect to the second member 3Rr) is not suppressed. The coupling portion 30c is an example of a third coupling portion, and the coupling portion 30y is an example of a fourth coupling portion.

  That is, in the present embodiment, the first member 3Fr is connected to the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md with respect to both the coupling at the coupling portions 30e and 30h and the coupling at the coupling portions 30c and 30y. The movement from the 3c side to the end 3e side is not suppressed. However, in the present embodiment, the movement of the first member 3Fr from the end 3c side to the end 3e side with respect to the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md is suppressed by the screw 10 as a coupling tool. ing. With such a configuration, as an example, the first member 3Fr and the second member constituting the housing 3A can be formed by a relatively simple configuration without providing a coupling tool such as the screw 10 at both ends 3c and 3e. 3Rr and 3rd member 3Md can be couple | bonded and it can suppress that 1st member 3Fr, 2nd member 3Rr, and 3rd member 3Md shift | deviate.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, as an example, the head 10a of the screw 10 as the coupler is covered and hidden by the battery 18 as the functional component. Therefore, for example, it is easy to suppress the occurrence of inconvenience due to the exposure of the screw 10 such that the coupling of the coupling portions 30c and 30y by the screw 10 is easily released and the aesthetic appearance is easily impaired. According to the present embodiment, as an example, there is an advantage that the number of parts can be reduced as compared with the case where the screw 10 as the coupler is covered with a dedicated lid or the like.

  Further, in the present embodiment, as an example, the screw 10 as a coupler for coupling the coupling portions 30 c and 30 y is positioned on the opposite side of the display screen 4 a with respect to the display device 4. Therefore, as an example, compared with the case where the screw 10 overlaps the display device 4 in the direction along the display screen 4a (the screw 10 is positioned in the normal direction of the side surface 4c with respect to the display device 4). In addition, the length of the housing 3A projecting outward from the side surface 4c (edge) of the display screen 4a in front view can be further reduced. Therefore, as an example, the size of the housing 3A with respect to the size of the display device 4 tends to be smaller. Further, the screw 10 extends along a direction along the display screen 4a (a crossing direction with the thickness direction of the housing 3A). Therefore, as an example, the thickness of the housing 3A is likely to be smaller than when the screw 10 extends in the thickness direction of the housing 3A.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, the screw 10 and the protrusion 31m (coupled) fixed to at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (in this embodiment, the third member 3Md as an example). Gaps g1 and g2 are provided between the portion 30c and the first member 3Fr). That is, the head portion 10a of the screw 10 contacts the wall portion 3n, and gaps g1 and g2 are provided between the head portion 10a and the protruding portion 31m. The gap g1 is a gap along the thickness direction of the housing 3A, and the gap g2 is a gap along the display screen 4a. With such a configuration, even when the positional deviation between the coupling portion 30c (the opening 31k) and the coupling portion 30y (the female screw hole 30y1) becomes large due to accumulation of dimensional variations or the like, the screw 10 Is fixed to the female screw hole 30y1, and at least one of the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md (in this embodiment, the third member 3Md as an example) is coupled by the coupling portions 30c and 30y. Can be obtained more reliably. Due to the coupling of the coupling portions 30c and 30y, at the end 3e, at least one of the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md (in this embodiment, the third member 3Md as an example) The gaps g1 and g2 are connected so as to be movable. Further, due to the coupling of the coupling portions 30c and 30y, at least one of the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md (in the present embodiment, the third member 3Md as an example) plays. It can be said that it is connected in a state of having. That is, according to the present embodiment, distortion in the housing 3A is easily suppressed due to the coupling in such a state.

Second Embodiment
As shown in FIGS. 5 to 11, the housing 3 </ b> B of the electronic device 1 </ b> B is configured to have a rectangular shape (in the present embodiment, a rectangular shape as an example) as shown in FIGS. Yes. Further, in the present embodiment, as an example, the housing 3B is configured in a flat, rectangular parallelepiped shape that is thin in the front-rear direction, as shown in FIGS. The housing 3B has a front surface 3a (front surface, surface, first surface, first surface portion) and a rear surface 3b (back surface, surface, second surface, second surface portion) on the opposite side. The front surface 3a and the rear surface 3b are substantially parallel. Moreover, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 8 to 11, the housing 3 </ b> B has four end portions 3 c to 3 f (side portions and edge portions) and four corner portions 3 g to 3 j (points, A curved portion and an end portion). The end portions 3c and 3e are examples of long side portions. The ends 3d and 3f are examples of short sides.

  The housing 3B has a wall 3k (first wall, first part, plate, frame, front wall, front wall, top wall) having a front surface 3a and a wall 3m (first wall) having a rear surface 3b. Two wall portions, a second portion, a plate, a rear wall portion, a back wall portion, and a bottom wall portion). The walls 3k and 3m have a rectangular shape (in this embodiment, a rectangular shape as an example). The housing 3B includes four wall portions 3n (third wall portion, third portion, plate) having side surfaces 3p (surface, peripheral surface, third surface) extending between the wall portions 3k and 3m. , Side wall portion, end wall portion, standing wall portion, and extending portion). As an example, a rectangular opening 3r is provided in the wall 3k.

  Furthermore, the housing 3B can be configured by combining a plurality of components (divided bodies). In this embodiment, as an example, the housing 3B includes a first member 3Fr (first housing portion, first portion, front member, cover) including at least a wall portion 3k and a second member 3Rr including at least a wall portion 3m. (Second housing part, second part, rear member, base, bottom). The wall 3n is included in at least one of the first member 3Fr and the second member 3Rr (for example, the second member 3Rr). In the present embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 14, the housing 3 </ b> B is separated from the first member 3 </ b> Fr and the second member 3 </ b> Rr by the third member 3 </ b> Md (third housing). Part, third part, intermediate member, partition member, barrier member, wall member, interposition member, inner plate, middle plate, middle frame). A part of the wall 3n can be included in the third member 3Md. The housing 3B can be made of a metal material, a synthetic resin material, or the like. As an example, the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md can be made of a material having a relatively high rigidity (for example, a metal material such as a magnesium alloy), and the first member 3Fr has a relatively low rigidity. It can be made of a material (a material having lower rigidity than the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md, such as a synthetic resin material). The first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md can be provided with wall portions (projections, projecting walls) such as ribs. The wall part tends to increase the rigidity of the housing 3B. The third member 3Md can be provided with an opening such as a through hole. By way of example, the housing 3B can be configured to be lighter by the opening. Moreover, as an example, it becomes easy to ensure the air flow in the housing 3B. Note that the assembly of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (FIG. 30 and the like) can be said to be an example of the second housing portion.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 11, the thickness of the first part 3Ba that is the lower side or the near side (side closer to the user) in the use state in which the longitudinal direction is horizontal is shown. It is thinner than the thickness of the second part 3Bb which is the upper side or the back side (the side far from the user) in the use state. For this reason, in the state used on the mounting surface P such as a desk, the height from the front surface 3a of the housing 3B and the mounting surface P (horizontal surface) of the display screen 4a is from the near side (lower side). It becomes higher as it goes to the back side (upper side). Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as an example, for the user located on the left side of FIG. 9 (right side of FIG. 11) with respect to the electronic device 1B, the display screen 4a is in a so-called tilt state, and the user is in the display screen 4a. There is an advantage that it is easy to see. The angle (obtuse angle side) with the mounting surface P of the display screen 4a in the state of FIGS. 9 and 11 is preferably 135 ° or more and less than 180 °. In the present embodiment, as an example, a plurality of protrusions 3v (3v, 3v) are provided on the rear surface 3b of the housing 3B. As is clear from FIGS. 9 and 11, the distance between the tip portion of the protrusion 3v located in the second part 3Bb in FIGS. 9 and 11 and the display screen 4a is located in the first part 3Ba in FIGS. This is longer than the distance between the tip of the projected portion 3v and the display screen n4a.

They are not overlapped with each other but are arranged side by side in a direction perpendicular to the thickness direction (a direction along the front surface 3a or the rear surface 3b, an X direction or a Y direction, in this embodiment, as an example, a Y direction). Therefore, as an example, the housing 3B can be configured to be thinner than when the battery 18 and the display device 4 overlap in the thickness direction of the housing 3B. Further, as an example, it is easier to make the battery 18 thicker than when the battery 18 and the display device 4 overlap each other in the thickness direction of the housing 3B, and as a result, the capacity per unit volume of the battery 18 is increased. It becomes easy. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 11, in the present embodiment, the housing 3 </ b> B has a thin first part 3 </ b> Ba and a thick second part 3 </ b> Bb. A battery accommodating portion 3s (battery support portion) that accommodates the battery 18 is provided at the end 3c of the thick second portion 3Bb. Therefore, as an example, compared with the case where the battery housing 3s is provided in the first part 3Ba, it becomes easier to make the battery 18 thicker, and as a result, the storage capacity per unit volume of the battery 18 can be easily increased.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIG. 15, an end 3e opposite to the end 3c provided with the battery housing 3s is supported by the stand 2B. Therefore, as an example, an operator (such as a user) can attach and detach the battery 18 to and from the housing 3B while the electronic device 1B is supported by the stand 2B. Further, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 10, the end 3e is provided with a connector 19 connected to a connector (not shown) of the stand 2B.

And as FIG. 7 shows, one 22a1 of the inlets 22a is provided in the rear surface 3b of inclination part 3Bc. As shown in FIGS. 9 and 11, since the distance between the inclined portion 3Bc and the placement surface P is larger than the distance between the other portion and the placement surface P, the distance is provided on the inclined portion 3Bc. For the inlet 22a1, the air flow resistance can be easily reduced, and the cooling efficiency can be further improved. In the present embodiment, a plurality of inlets 22a are provided. Therefore, as an example, even when one introduction port 22a is blocked for some reason, an air flow can be introduced into the housing 3B from the other introduction port 22a, and the cooling performance is improved. It becomes hard to be damaged. Note that the inside of the housing 3B may be cooled by the cooling mechanism 23 (see FIGS. 13 and 14, etc.), or may be cooled by natural cooling (convection cooling).

Is provided. The input operation panel 5 covers the display screen 4a. An operator (user or the like) performs an operation such as touching, pushing, rubbing, or moving a finger or stylus in the vicinity of the input operation panel 5 with the fingers or a component 16 (stylus) or the like. By performing the above, input processing can be executed. The light emitted from the display screen 4a of the display device 4 passes through the input operation panel 5 and exits from the opening 3r of the wall 3k to the front (outward) of the housing 3B. The input operation panel 5 is an example of an input unit.

There are provided an introduction port 22a3 positioned and an introduction port 22a1 closer to the electronic component 12 as a heating element than the introduction ports 22a2 and 22a3. Since the introduction port 22a2 is provided, an air flow can be made to flow more efficiently in the housing 3B. Further, the air flow S introduced from the introduction port 22a3 is an air flow S2 that flows toward the fan 24 along the second surface 6b on the rear side of the substrate 6 and an end of the substrate 6 that is located on the opposite side of the fan 24. The air flow S1 flows toward the fan 24 along the first surface 6a on the front side of the substrate 6 through the outside of the portion 6c (around and around). Therefore, the electronic component 12 (heating element) provided on both sides of the first surface 6a and the second surface 6b of the substrate 6 can be cooled.

The engaging portion 18f is, for example, a groove (recessed portion) along the direction in which the battery 18 enters and exits (mounting direction, attaching / detaching direction, in the present embodiment, as an example, the front surface 3a, the direction along the end portions 3d, 3f, and the Y direction). , Opening). Correspondingly, as shown in FIGS. 20 and 21, the first support portion 30 a 1 is provided with an engagement portion 31 c related to the engagement portion 18 f. The engaging portion 31c is a protrusion (protrusion) inserted into the engaging portion 18f as a groove on at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (in this embodiment, the second member 3Rr as an example). Wall). When a user or the like brings the battery 18 close to the battery housing 3s and inserts it, the battery 18 moves to a predetermined position (attachment position, coupling position) while the engaging portion 18f is guided by the engaging portion 31c. That is, the engaging portion 31c and the engaging portion 18f are examples of a support portion and a guide portion (guide portion).

  Further, a connector 18g and an engaging portion 18h related to the second support portion 30a2 are provided at the end portion 18e in the short direction of the battery 18.

Further, the engaging portion 18h is provided as a protruding portion that protrudes at a plurality of locations (two locations as an example in the present embodiment) spaced along the longitudinal direction of the battery 18. A claw portion 18i (an engagement portion, a hook portion, a hook) is provided at the distal end portion of the engagement portion 18h. Correspondingly, the second support part 30a2 is provided with an opening 31f (concave part) into which the engaging part 18h is inserted. As shown in FIGS. 24 and 25, the opening 31f is configured as a gap (notch) between the wall 30f of the second member 3Rr and the wall 30p of the third member 3Md. The gap is easier to provide than the through hole. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as an example, it is easy to reduce labor for manufacturing the opening 31f. In the present embodiment, as an example, in the opening 31f, the housing 3B (at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md, both in the present embodiment as an example) is slidable (movable). , A disengageable portion 31g (movable portion) is provided. A claw portion 31j (engagement portion, hook portion, hook) related to the claw portion 18i is provided at the distal end portion of the engagement portion 31g. The engaging portion 31g is connected to an operating element 31h (component, slider) provided in an exposed state on the housing 3B, and operates (interlocks) with the operating element 31h. The engaging portion 31g moves while being guided by a guide portion 31i provided in the housing 3B. In the present embodiment, as an example, the guide portion 31i is located at the boundary portion between the wall portion 30f of the second member 3Rr and the wall portion 30p of the third member 3Md, between the end portions (edges, edges, sides). It is configured as a gap (notch, slit). The gap is easier to provide than the through hole. Therefore, according to this embodiment, it is easy to reduce the effort of manufacture of the structure regarding the engaging part 31g as an example. In such a configuration, the engaging portion 18h is inserted into the opening 31f as the battery 18 is introduced into the battery housing portion 3s. When the operation element 31h is moved from the free side (release side) to the lock side (fixed side) by the user's fingers or the like in a state where the battery 18 is located at a predetermined position (attachment position, coupling position) with respect to the housing 3B, The claw portion 31j of the engagement portion 31g and the claw portion 18i of the engagement portion 18h are engaged, and the battery 18 is locked (fixed) at a predetermined position (attachment position, entry position).

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIGS. 24 and 25, the wall 30f of the second member 3Rr and the wall 30p of the third member 3Md covered by the battery 18 are in the normal direction ( It has a concave-convex shape (concave portion and convex portion) that is recessed or protruded in the Y direction). Thereby, the rigidity of the end 3c of the housing 3B covered with the battery 18 is easily improved.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26, the coupling portions 30c and 30d of the first member 3Fr are at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md (this embodiment). In the embodiment, as an example, the third member 3Md) is coupled from the outside of the housing 3B. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 26, the coupling portion 30c has a protruding portion 31m provided with an opening 31k through which a coupling tool such as a screw 10 is passed. The protrusion 31m protrudes in the thickness direction of the housing 3B from the wall 3k toward the wall 3m. The protrusion 31m extends along the surfaces (outer surfaces) of the wall 30p of the third member 3Md and the wall 30f of the second member 3Rr. That is, the protruding portion 31m covers the wall portions 30p and 30f from the outside of the housing 3B. Further, as shown in FIG. 25, the coupling part 30d (engagement part) is connected to the coupling part 30z (engagement part) provided at the end of the wall part 30p of the second member 3Md on the wall part 3k side. It is involved from the outside of 3B. As described above, in the configuration in which the coupling portions 30c and 30d of the first member 3Fr cover at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md from the outside of the housing 3B, as an example, the battery 18 It is easy to release the coupling by the coupling parts 30c and 30d in a state where the is removed.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 26, as an example, at least one of the coupling portion 30c of the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member 3Md (in this embodiment, as an example The screw 10 coupled to the coupling portion 30y of the third member 3Md) is positioned on the opposite side of the display screen 4a with respect to the display device 4. Therefore, as an example, compared with the case where the screw 10 overlaps the display device 4 in the direction along the display screen 4a (the screw 10 is positioned in the normal direction of the side surface 4c with respect to the display device 4). In addition, the length of the housing 3B protruding outward from the side surface 4c (edge) of the display screen 4a in front view can be further reduced. Therefore, as an example, the size of the housing 3B with respect to the size of the display device 4 tends to be smaller.

  In the configuration of the present embodiment, the protruding portion 31m extends in a direction away from the wall portion 3k, and the protruding end (tip, end portion) of the protruding portion 31m is separated from the coupling portion 30d. Therefore, as an example, after the operator releases the coupling between the coupling portion 30c and the coupling portion 30y, the wall portion 30p, When a force is applied in the direction away from 30f (the right direction and the upper right direction in FIG. 26), the moment arm with respect to the coupling portion 30d becomes longer, so that the engagement between the coupling portion 30d and the coupling portion 30z can be easily released. . Further, when the screw 10 is provided on the back side of the display device 4, the moment arm tends to be longer. In addition, the base part (base end part) of the protrusion part 31m is provided with a protrusion part 31p (wall part, rib) extending in a direction crossing both the protrusion part 31m and the wall part 3k. Therefore, according to this embodiment, when the protrusion part 31m bends, it is easy to suppress that a root part deform | transforms.

  In this embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26, the wall 3k protrudes (projects) from the wall 30p in a direction away from the center of the housing 3B. Therefore, as an example, after the operator releases the coupling between the coupling portion 30c and the coupling portion 30y, the end portion 3k1 (edge, side) of the wall portion 3k is moved from the wall portion 3m by a finger or a tool. When a force is applied in the direction of separation (upward direction and upper left direction in FIG. 26), the moment arm with respect to the coupling portion 30d becomes longer, so that the engagement between the coupling portion 30d and the coupling portion 30z can be easily released. In addition, an opening 18j is provided in the battery 18 corresponding to the protruding portion of the wall 3k. Therefore, the thickness of the housing 3B is difficult to increase.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIGS. 27 to 29, in the end portions 3d, 3e, and 3f other than the end portion 3c on the battery housing portion 3s side, the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and The coupling portions 30e and 30h with at least one of the third members 3Md (in the present embodiment, the second member 3Rr as an example) are positioned inside the housing 3B from the wall portion 3n of the housing 3B. . That is, the coupling portions 30e and 30h are covered with at least one of the first member 3Fr and the third member 3Md. Therefore, according to this embodiment, as an example, it is possible to suppress the coupling portions 30e and 30h from being exposed. Therefore, for example, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of inconvenience due to the coupling portions 30e and 30h being exposed to the outside of the housing 3B, for example, the coupling is easily released or the aesthetic appearance is easily impaired.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, the first member 3Fr and the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md are coupled to each other between the coupling portion 30c covered by the battery 18 and the coupling portion 30y. Except that the coupling is performed through a coupling tool such as the screw 10, the coupling portions 30c and 30y are engaged (hooked) with each other. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as an example, the first member 3Fr, the second member 3Rr, and the third member are provided by providing at least one end portion 3c with a coupling portion that is stronger than the engagement. By securing a more reliable coupling state with at least one of 3Md, and by increasing the number of coupling points via coupling tools, such as being easily bulky and increasing weight. Inconvenience can be suppressed.

  Coupling between the first member 3Fr and at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md at the coupling portions 30e, 30h of the end portions 3d, 3e, 3f other than the end portion 3c on the battery housing portion 3s side In (relationship), the first member 3Fr and at least one of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md may be connected in the direction along the display screen 4a, or may be crossed with the display screen 4a. You may combine in the direction close to. In a configuration (so-called snap-fit method) in which the display screen 4a is connected in the direction close to the display screen 4a (so-called snap fit method), the attachment and detachment is easily performed. On the other hand, in a configuration (so-called slide method) coupled close to the direction intersecting the display screen 4a, a portion related to the coupling portions 30e and 30h can be configured larger than a so-called snap-fit configuration. The coupling force by the coupling parts 30e and 30h tends to be greater.

  In this embodiment, as an example, as shown in FIGS. 12 and 30, the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md are coupled by a coupling tool (second coupling tool) such as a screw 10 and the coupling. The coupling portions 30x and 30g (see FIGS. 18 and 19) by the tool are covered with the display device 4 or the first member 3Fr. Therefore, according to the present embodiment, as an example, the coupling portions 30x and 30g of the second member 3Rr and the third member 3Md as two housing members mainly maintaining rigidity and strength are exposed to the outside of the housing 3B. Can be suppressed. Therefore, for example, it is possible to suppress the occurrence of inconveniences due to the exposure of the coupling portions 30x and 30g such that the coupling is easily released and the aesthetic appearance is easily impaired.

  In the present embodiment, as an example, the wall 32a of the third member 3Md is provided with a recess 31r (opening) that is recessed toward the second member 3Rr. Specifically, the concave portion 31r is provided in parallel (in parallel) with the end portions 3c and 3e across the opposed end portions 3d and 3f, and a stepped (inclined surface shape) is formed at the boundary portion of the concave portion 31r. ) Wall portion 31s. The wall portion 31s facilitates improving the rigidity of the third member 3Md. Therefore, according to this embodiment, as an example, the rigidity of the third member 3Md is easily improved while the space (space, region) in which the substrate 4d of the display device 4 is accommodated is secured by the recess 31r.

  Even in this embodiment, the coupling portions 30e and 30h at the end portion 3e shown in FIG. 29 are coupled to the coupling portions 30e and 30e at the end portion 3c in the first embodiment shown in FIG. This is exactly the same as the 30 h bond. Further, the coupling of the coupling portions 30c and 30y at the end 3c shown in FIG. 26 is exactly the same as the coupling of the coupling portions 30c and 30y at the end 3e in the first embodiment shown in FIG. . Therefore, even in the present embodiment, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained.
