Abstract:
1. An electronic equipment, comprising: a housing that has an opening through which an entire battery unit can pass; a battery attachment portion that receives the battery unit inserted through the opening, wherein the battery attachment portion includes a first battery attachment portion to which a first battery unit is attached and a second battery attachment portion to which a second battery unit is attached; a battery operation portion configured to be displaceable in a direction perpendicular to a direction of detachment from the battery attachment portion that locks the battery unit received in the battery attachment portion and that unlocks the battery unit by an operation of a user so as to allow the battery unit to be displaced in the direction of detachment from the battery attachment portion; and a battery holding portion that is arranged to engage a surface of the battery unit between the battery operation portion and the opening in the housing and that is formed as a separate member from the battery operation portion, the battery holding portion being configured to hold the battery unit such that the battery unit is prevented from being detached from the battery attachment portion unless an external force exceeding a threshold force is exerted on the battery unit when the battery unit is unlocked by the operation of the user to the battery operation portion, wherein the battery holding portion is arranged between the first battery attachment portion and the second battery attachment portion, and a first portion of the battery holding portion is fitted in a concave portion formed in a side face of the first battery unit on a side of the second battery attachment portion, and a second portion of the battery holding portion is fitted in a concave portion formed in a side face of the second battery unit on a side of the first battery attachment portion, thereby holding the first battery unit and the second battery unit, respectively.
