Abstract:
1. A portable electronic device comprising: a battery; a main casing having a battery-receiving groove for receiving said battery therein, and two aligned resilient abutting tongues flanking said battery-receiving groove; a cover mounted removably on said main casing for covering said battery-receiving groove; and two anchoring members mounted rotatably on said cover, extending into said main casing and operable so as to switch between a releasing state, where said abutting tongues are spaced respectively apart from said battery, and a clamping state, where said abutting tongues are pressed respectively against said battery, wherein: said battery-receiving groove in said main casing is defined by two inner sidewall surfaces opposite to each other, said main casing further having two recesses disposed respectively adjacent to said inner sidewall surfaces, each of said inner sidewall surfaces being formed with a via hole in spatial communication with said battery-receiving groove and a corresponding one of said recesses, said abutting tongues extending respectively into said via holes in said inner sidewall surfaces; said cover has two through holes aligned respectively with said recesses; each of said anchoring members includes an insertion rod portion extending through a corresponding one of said through holes in said cover and into a corresponding one of said recesses in said main casing, an operating rod portion connected to one end of said insertion rod portion and disposed rotatably on said cover, and a pushing block extending radially from said insertion rod portion and perpendicular to said insertion rod portion and said operating rod portion of the corresponding one of said anchoring members, each of said anchoring members being rotatable relative to said cover about an axis of said insertion rod portion; said cover further has two resilient extension plates extending from said cover into said recesses in said main casing, respectively, each of said extension plates being disposed between said insertion rod portion of a corresponding one of said anchoring members and a corresponding one of said abutting tongues; and when said anchoring members are operated in the clamping state, said extension plates of said cover are pushed respectively by said pushing blocks of said anchoring members to pivot toward said via holes in said main casing such that said abutting tongues are respectively pushed and moved by said extension plates to press against said battery.
