Abstract

PURPOSE:To connect a probe to a ROM inside a cabinet regardless of a battery by providing a probe inserting port on the internal side of a side board to partition a battery housing part and the inside of the main body of the cabinet and fitting the connector terminal of a vertically inserted probe to a recessed connecting part provided at the terminal edge of a printed circuit board. CONSTITUTION:The cabinet for an electronic equipment such as a pager is composed of a main body 10 of the cabinet and a partial cover 12 also used as a battery cover for opening/closing a battery housing part 11 at the main body 10, a printed circuit board 15 is arranged inside side walls 13 of the housing part 11, and the ROM not shown in the figure is mounted on the board 15. A notch 13a extended from the upper edge to the down side is provided on the side face of the cabinet on the side walls 13, and an opening part generated between the notch 13a and a terminal edge 10a of ceiling walls is used as a probe inserting port 16. Therefore, the terminal edge 10a is saved inside rather than a position required for attaching/detaching the battery inside the housing part 11, and the battery is attached/detached regardless of a probe 20 of the ROM. Namely, the probe inserting port 16 in the shape of a longitudinal hole is provided between the housing part 11 and the cabinet side of the side walls 13, and workability improved.

2. Description of the Related Art RO used for pagers manufactured to order
The data stored in the M (Read Only Memory) is often input at the time when all the assembling is completed and the area or the like to be finally used is determined, and the input work is performed immediately before shipping. In other words, for communication equipment such as pagers and electronic equipment, a program that includes the calling number of the customer who has decided to purchase and use the equipment after completion of the product and before shipment, the timing of the calling frame, and other data. Since it is necessary to write the data in the ROM on the printed circuit board inside the housing, the data can be written by inserting and connecting the probe connected to the ROM writer from the outside of the housing toward the internal ROM. It is configured.

5 (a), (b) and (c) are a perspective view, a cross sectional view and a vertical sectional view showing a structure for writing a ROM in a conventional pager. When the battery cover 3 is removed, the battery housing portion 4 for housing the battery is exposed. Conventionally, a window (or a recess) 4a is opened in the side wall of the battery housing portion 4, and a conductor pattern 5a connected to each terminal of the ROM is formed on the edge of the printed circuit board 5 which is in contact with the inside of the window 4a. Then, while inserting the tip of the probe 6 into the window and connecting the terminal 6a formed at the tip to the conductor pattern 5a, writing is performed while separately supplying power to the pager from an external power source. The writing method was adopted.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional casing structure, since the window for inserting the probe is formed on the side wall of the battery housing portion, the ROM can be written unless the housed battery is removed. As a result, there is a problem that the number of steps for writing the ROM increases. In addition, as shown in FIG. 3C, a space S for receiving the tip portion of the probe 6 and connecting it to the conductor pattern on the printed circuit board 5
Therefore, there have been problems such as an increase in the size of the housing and restrictions on the layout of internal parts. Further, when the battery liquid leaks, the presence of the window 4a may cause the leaked liquid to flow into the printed circuit board side and adversely affect the mounted components and the wiring pattern.
