Abstract
A portable electronic device including a body, and a display portion which is openably and closably provided with respect to the body, wherein a short battery portion is provided at the back end of the body, and a long battery portion is rotatably provided with respect to the short battery portion; and an electronic device battery. In the electronic device and the electronic device battery, a simple structure for electrically connecting the battery to the body can be used to support the back end of the body of the electronic device above a supporting surface in order to easily tilt the body.
Claims27
An electronic device, comprising:
- a body;
- a display portion which is openably and closably provided with respect to said body;
- a first battery portion which is provided at the back end of said body,
- a second battery portion which is rotatably supported by said first battery portion;
- and
- wherein said first battery portion is removably disposed between at least one pair of opening-and-closing mechanical portions which openably and closably support said display portion with respect to said body.
An electronic device battery which is used by removably mounting said electronic device battery with respect to a portable electronic device comprising a body and a display portion which is openably and closably provided with respect to the body, said electronic device battery, comprising:
- a first battery portion which is disposed at the back end of the body;
- a second battery portion which is rotatably supported by said first battery portion;
- and
- wherein said first battery portion is disposed between at least one pair of opening-and-closing mechanical portions which openably and closable support the display portion with respect to the body of the electronic device.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a body;
- a display portion which is openably and closably provided with respect to said body;
- a first battery portion which is provided at the back end of said body;
- a second battery portion which is rotatably supported by said first battery portion;
- and
- wherein said first battery portion has an electrical connecting terminal which is electrically connected to an electrical terminal of said body, and wherein said electronic device further comprises a guiding mechanical portion for removably mounting the ends of said first battery to the at least one pair of opening-and-closing mechanical portions.
An electronic device battery which is used by removably mounting said electronic device battery with respect to a portable electronic device comprising a body and a display portion which is openably and closably provided with respect to the body, said electronic device battery, comprising:
- a first battery portion which is disposed at the back end of the body;
- and
- a second battery portion which is rotatably supported by said first battery portion wherein said second battery portion, which has been rotated with respect to said first battery portion, supports the back end of the body of the electronic device above a supporting surface in order to tilt and support the body with respect to the supporting surface.
An electronic device, comprising:
- a body;
- a display portion which is openably and closably provided with respect to said body;
- a first battery portion which is provided at the back end of said body;
- a second battery portion which is rotatably supported by said first battery portion;
- and
- wherein said first battery portion, disposed between the at least one pair of opening-and-closing mechanical portions, is mechanically and electrically connected at the body side so as to be removable from said body.
