Abstract:
1. An electronic device comprising: a battery, at least one sidewall defining a positioning hole; a main body defining a battery compartment to receive the battery, the battery compartment comprising an opening and at least one first sidewall adjacent to the opening; and at least one latching assembly for latching the battery to the main body, each of the at least one latching assembly comprising: an elastic latching member mounted in the first sidewall and partially received in the battery compartment, wherein, the elastic latching member comprises a moveable frame, a positioning plate, at least one elastic member, and a latching block, the positioning plate is fixed in the first sidewall, one end of each of the at least one elastic member is attached to the positioning plate, and an opposite end of each of the at least one elastic member is attached to the latching block, the latching block is secured to and extends partially out of the moveable frame, the extending portion of the latching block is received in the battery compartment and receivable in the at least one positioning hole, the moveable frame comprises a first angled sidewall; a resisting member movably mounted in the first sidewall and abutting the elastic latching member, wherein, the resisting member comprises a second angled sidewall and a third angled side wall opposite to the second angled sidewall and abutting the first angled sidewall; and a button mounted in the main body and abutting the resisting member, wherein, the button comprises a fourth angled sidewall abutting the second angled sidewall; wherein, when pushing the battery into the battery compartment through the opening, the elastic latching member is compressed by the battery, as the battery is pushed to a position where the at least one positioning hole aligns with the elastic latching member, the elastic latching member restores to be received in the at least one positioning hole; when pressing the button, the resisting member is driven to move towards the elastic latching member, causing the elastic latching member to move away from the battery compartment until the elastic latching member moves out of the at least one positioning hole, when the button is released, the elastic latching member restores to be partially received in the battery compartment, and to resist the resisting member to return to its original position.
