Claim Text:
1. A battery having multi-orientation conductions, for supplying power to an electronic device having a battery holder comprising an accommodating trough, the accommodating trough comprising a plurality of inner planes and at least a first receiving assembly and a second receiving assembly, each receiving assembly comprising at least a first contact portion and a second contact portion located on two different inner planes of the accommodating trough, the battery comprising: a casing, having an inner space and an outer surface, wherein the outer surface comprises a plurality of contact planes; a battery pack, comprising a battery cell disposed in the inner space, wherein the battery cell has at least a positive electrode and a negative electrode; a first electrical connecting assembly disposed on the casing and comprising at least a first contact portion and a second contact portion respectively located on two different contact planes of the casing for respectively contacting the first and second contact portions of the first receiving assembly and transmitting power between the positive electrode and the electronic device via the first receiving assembly, wherein a first electrical pathway from the positive electrode branches and then connects to each of the first contact portion and the second contact portion of the first electrical connecting assembly by two distinct electrical connections inside the casing, wherein the first and second contact portions of the first electrical connecting assembly are two separate contact points separated by a first portion of the outer surface of the casing; a second electrical connecting assembly disposed on the casing and comprising at least a first contact portion and a second contact portion respectively located on two different contact planes of the casing for respectively contacting the first and second contact portions of the second receiving assembly and transmitting power between the negative electrode and the electronic device, wherein a second electrical pathway from the negative electrode branches and then connects to each of the first contact portion and the second contact portion of the second electrical connecting assembly by two distinct electrical connections inside the casing, and wherein the first and second contact portions of the second electrical connecting assembly are two separate contact points separated by a second portion of the outer surface of the casing; wherein, when the battery is received in the accommodating trough of the battery holder, the first contact portion of the first electrical connecting assembly is located in a position corresponding to the first contact portion of the first receiving assembly, and the second contact portion of the first electrical connecting assembly is located in a position corresponding to the second contact portion of the first receiving assembly, and two distinct electrical connections are made between the positive electrode and the first and second contact portions of the first receiving assembly via the first electrical pathway and the first and second contact portions of the first electrical connecting assembly; and wherein, when the battery is received in the accommodating trough of the battery holder, the first contact portion of the second electrical connecting assembly is located in a position corresponding to the first contact portion of the second receiving assembly, and the second contact portion of the second electrical connecting assembly is located in a position corresponding to the second contact portion of the second receiving assembly, and two distinct electrical connections are made between the negative electrode and the first and second contact portions of the second receiving assembly via the second electrical pathway and the first and second contact portions of the second electrical connecting assembly.
