Plate-like holding structure and electronic timepiece having the same

Abstract

To provide a plate-like holding structure capable of fixing both of an oscillator cabinet and a battery by a minimum size and an electronic timepiece having the same. A plate-like holding structure of an electronic timepiece is a holding structure constituted by a slender leaf spring as a whole mounted to a machine frame of a timepiece main body to be substantially orthogonal to a main face of the timepiece main body and to be extended along a direction of extending the main face, including a battery holding portion brought into press contact with a battery at one end portion thereof and including an oscillator cabinet holding portion brought into press contact with a cabinet of an oscillator at other end portion thereof and constituted such that a middle portion of the two holding portions is supported by a fulcrum portion supported by the machine frame main body.
