The invention discloses a battery cover latch structure, which is suitable for a portable electronic device such as a mobile phone. In the embodiment, a mobile phone is taken as an example for description.

Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the battery cover latch structure 10 of the present invention includes a body 11 , a battery cover 12 and a button 13 .

The body 11 includes a top wall 111 , a bottom wall 112 opposite to the top wall 111 , and a left side wall 113 and a right side wall 114 connecting the top wall 111 and the bottom wall 112 . The top wall 111, the bottom wall 112, the left side wall 113, and the right side wall 114 define a rectangular receiving slot 115 for receiving a battery (not shown) of the mobile phone and electronic components (not shown) such as a circuit board. Inside. The bottom wall 112 is opened A rectangular notch 116 is in communication with the receiving groove 115. A fixing portion 117 is protruded from the bottom wall 112 of the body 11 near the notch 116. The fixing portion 117 has a substantially L-shaped plate-like structure, and an inner surface of the body 11 protrudes toward the receiving groove 115. 118.

The battery cover 12 is used to cover the receiving slot 115 of the body 11 to shield the battery. The battery cover 12 has a substantially rectangular shape and has a bottom wall 121 and a peripheral wall 122 bent from a periphery of the bottom wall 121. The peripheral wall 122 and the bottom wall 121 collectively define a receiving cavity 123. The peripheral wall 122 of the battery cover 12 extends a hook 124 corresponding to the notch 116. The hook 124 includes a body 125 and a hook portion 126. The body 125 is substantially a rectangular plate-like structure. The hook portion 126 extends from one end of the body 125 perpendicular to the body 125 and toward the inside of the receiving cavity 123.

The button 13 includes a pressing portion 131 and a reset member 136 , and the pressing portion 131 is integrally formed with the reset member 136 . The pressing portion 131 has a pressing surface 1311 and an opposite bottom surface 1312. A substantially "L"-shaped rib 1314 is disposed on each side of the bottom surface 1312 of the pressing portion 131. A latching member 132 is vertically protruded from the bottom surface 1312 and located between the two ribs 1314. A rectangular opening 1321 is defined in the surface of the latching member 132 perpendicular to the bottom surface 1312. The rectangular opening 1321 is configured to cooperate with the hook 124.

The reset member 136 includes an elastic portion 1361 and an engaging portion 1362. The elastic portion 1361 has a substantially U-shape, and one end thereof is fixed to the bottom surface 1312 and intersects with one of the ribs 1314. The engaging portion 1362 extends from the other end of the elastic portion 1361 in a direction parallel to the bottom surface 1312. A through hole 1363 is defined in the surface of the engaging portion 1362. The engaging portion 1362 can be sleeved and fixed by the through hole 1363. On the positioning post 118.
