Battery cover locking structure

The present invention relates to a battery cover locking structure.

Portable electronic devices such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs) are increasingly used, and such portable electronic devices use batteries as their energy source. Such a battery is generally powered by a battery cover that is inserted into the body of the portable electronic device to provide power to the portable electronic device.

Generally, the battery cover latch structure of the portable electronic device is mostly clamped on the body by using a hook and a buckle structure, that is, a hook and a lock pin are disposed on the battery cover, and correspondingly, a card slot and a buckle are disposed on the body. The keyhole is used to secure the battery cover to the body. The battery cover has a simple structure, but during the frequent opening or locking process of the battery cover, the hook and the buckle lock are loose, which affects the clamping of the battery cover and the body, and is more laborious and difficult to disassemble. inconvenient.

In view of this, it is necessary to provide a battery cover locking structure that is not easy to loosen and is convenient to disassemble the battery cover.

A battery cover locking structure comprising a body and a battery detachably mounted on the body a battery cover, a sliding member and a button, the battery cover is provided with a hook, and at least one elastic body is disposed on the body, and the button is mounted on the body in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sliding member and the sliding member. When the battery cover is disposed on the body, the battery cover resists deformation of the elastic body into the body, and the hook is locked on the sliding member. When the pressing button pushes the sliding member to slide relative to the body, the hook is unlocked relative to the sliding member. In addition, the elastic body is restored to the original state to bounce the battery cover away from the body.

The battery cover locking structure of the battery cover is locked and unlocked by the hook of the battery cover and the sliding member by the push of the button and the sliding member, so that the body and the battery cover are relatively firmly held, and the elastic body disposed on the body will be The battery cover pops up and can be unlocked by pressing the button. It is convenient to replace the battery cover.
