According to the present invention, with the above configuration, after the battery is inserted and stored in the battery storage portion from the battery insertion opening side, the movable stopper is rotated from the battery insertion opening side toward the inside of the battery storage portion, that is, the side surface of the battery. The bent portion is moved to a position closer to the rotation limit position beyond the line connecting the shortest distance between the pivot portion and the battery, and the elastic body is brought into contact with the side surface of the battery to lock it. The battery is prevented from moving to the side surface side only by this movable stopper. When a force acts to move the battery to the movable stopper side, the battery contact side piece bends in the direction of this force due to the elasticity of the bent portion, and as a result, the movable stopper is moved to the rotation limit position direction. The force in the direction of turning to acts on, and the locked state is reliably held.

When the battery is housed between the movable stopper 14 and the fixed stopper 17, the elastic bodies 13 and 16 attached to the movable stopper 14 and the fixed stopper 17 are arranged so that the battery is inserted from both sides in the depth direction of the battery housing portion 11. It has a pressing margin to moderately suppress the pressure.

With the above structure, as shown in FIG. 1, the battery 20 is inserted from the battery insertion opening side of the battery storage portion 11 and slid on the free roller 13 'so that the front side surface 20c of the battery 20 is fixed. After the battery 20 is housed in the battery storage unit 11 in the state shown in the drawing by contacting the elastic body 16 of the stopper 17, the movable stopper 14 is rotated to the inside of the battery storage unit about the hinge mechanism 15 as an axis to move the hinge. The bent portion crosses the line connecting the shortest distance between the mechanism 15, that is, the pivotal support portion of the movable stopper 14 and the rear side surface 20d of the battery 20. That is, the attachment base side piece 14b is rotated to a rotation limit position where it contacts the lower frame of the battery storage section 11. In this way, as shown in FIG. 2, the elastic body 13 of the battery contact side piece 14a of the movable stopper 14 contacts the rear side surface 20d of the battery 20 to elastically lock the battery 20.

In this way, the battery 20 is
When elastically locked, the battery contact side piece 14a of the movable stopper 14 is bent at an angle slightly smaller than the right angle with respect to the mounting base side piece 14b, and this bent portion is movable.
Of the battery 20 is located below the battery contact portion and the pivotal support portion, and the bent portion bites below the battery insertion opening side surface 20d of the battery 20, so that the battery 20 is inserted into the battery storage portion 11. When trying to move to the mouth side, since the battery contact side piece 14a is pushed to the battery insertion opening side front side and the mounting base side piece 14b is pushed downward, the movable stopper 14 moves upward around the pivot point. Since the movable stopper 14 is not rotated, the movable stopper 14 can securely lock the battery without accidentally coming off from the rear side surface of the battery 20.

Also, if the battery 20 vibrates for some reason,
As clearly shown in FIG. 3, the battery stopper side piece 14a of the movable stopper 14 bends backward from the bent portion due to vibration, and a force acts to move the attachment base side piece 14b downward. The elasticity of 14 causes a force to return to the original state, and the action to return to the original state reduces the vibration of the battery 20. At this time, the elastic body 13 of the battery contact side piece 14a also works effectively for this relaxation action.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 4, the left and right side surfaces 20a, 20b of the battery 20 are attached to the side ends of the elastic body 13 fixed to the battery contact side piece 14a of the movable stopper 14. Since the side locking portion 13a is provided to cover the rear edge slightly, the battery 2
There is an advantage that not only rattling around 0 but also rattling on the left and right can be prevented.

According to the present invention as described above, a lock mechanism having a simple structure and easy operation can be realized. In particular, there is no need for an operating member outside the locking member. Further, since the elastic body of the movable stopper contacts the side surface of the battery over a proper width, the battery can be locked only by the movable stopper. And unlocking is sufficient only by reversing the movable stopper, which is also easy.
