Battery cover and electronic device having the same

The present invention relates to a cover structure, and more particularly to a battery cover and an electronic device having the battery cover.

Mobile electronic devices such as mobile phones and personal digital assistants (PDAs) are increasingly used. These portable electronic devices use batteries as their energy source. The portable battery of the portable electronic device is mostly a detachable battery, and the battery is installed in the portable electronic device by a battery cover inserted into the body of the portable electronic device body to provide the portable electronic device. Provide power. In the process of using the portable electronic device, the battery has to be replaced due to the continuous consumption of the battery energy. Therefore, many battery covers have been designed in order to replace the battery conveniently and reliably.

A conventional battery cover includes a top wall, a left side wall, a right side wall, and a bottom wall. The top wall has a substantially rectangular plate shape, and the left side wall and the right side wall are respectively formed by bending and extending from opposite left and right side edges of the top wall. The bottom wall is formed by bending and extending the other side wall of the top wall, and the two ends of the bottom wall are respectively connected to the left and right side walls to form a substantially rectangular concave shape, and the one end is open and the one end is closed. space. The battery cover has a protrusion extending from the open end wall of the top wall of one end of the bottom wall, and the protrusion is engageable with the groove of the body of the mobile phone. When assembling, firstly, the top wall, the left side wall and the right side wall of the battery cover face the mobile phone body, and the protrusion faces the groove of the body, and then pushes the battery cover toward the protrusion, and the protrusion of the battery cover is stuck in the groove. Inside, the left side wall, the right side wall and the bottom wall are attached to the peripheral wall of the mobile phone body. This type of battery cover structure can be powered The battery cover is removed to facilitate battery replacement. However, when the battery cover is removed, the battery cover needs to be pushed backwards, because the left side wall, the right side wall and the bottom wall are closely attached to the mobile phone body, and the battery cover is not easy to act from the action. The phone body is detached, and it is inconvenient to disassemble.

In view of this, it is necessary to provide a battery cover that is convenient to use and disassemble.

It is also necessary to provide an electronic device having the battery cover.

A battery cover detachably mounted on an electronic device for protecting a battery of the electronic device, the battery cover comprising a substrate and a sliding cover slidably mounted on the substrate, the substrate of the battery cover and sliding The opposite ends of the cover are respectively provided with at least one block.

An electronic device includes a body and a battery cover, wherein the body is provided with a battery mounting portion, the battery mounting portion includes two first sidewalls that are relatively parallel; and the two first sidewalls are respectively recessed The battery cover includes a substrate and a sliding cover slidably mounted on the substrate, and the opposite ends of the substrate and the sliding cover of the battery cover are respectively provided corresponding to the engaging At least one block of the groove, so that the battery cover is detachably mounted on the battery mounting portion of the body.

Compared with the prior art, the battery cover replaces the conventional single cover mode with a two-piece battery cover structure of a substrate and a sliding cover slidably mounted on the substrate. The battery cover is disposed on the opposite ends of the substrate and the sliding cover, so that the battery cover can slide the cover of the battery cover to slide the card and the electronic device on the sliding cover The body is snapped or disengaged, thereby quickly and easily implementing the installation and unloading of the battery cover and the electronic device body, which is very convenient to use.
