Abstract:
1. An information processing apparatus being capable of detaching a battery pack and being capable of inserting an IC card, the information processing apparatus comprising: an external fit frame having a storage concave part for storing the battery pack; a card storage slot configured to be provided on a plane surface formed from one side wall of the external fit frame in an external direction and configured to insert and remove the IC card; and a locking member having two opposite end parts configured to be supported on a back side of the plane surface on which the card storage slot is provided and configured to lock the IC card inserted into the card storage slot, wherein while the battery pack is mounted to the storage concave part of the external fit frame, one end part of the locking member abuts to be engaged in one end edge of the battery pack mounted to the storage concave part of the external fit frame via a first opening part provided on the one side wall of the external fit frame, the one end part of the locking member engaging with the battery pack causes the locking member to pivot such that a locking protrusion formed at another end part of the locking member protrudes from a second opening part provided in the plane surface in a periphery of the one side wall of the external fit frame to lock the IC card.
