A battery terminal case (16) having battery terminals is disposed at an equipment casing (12) of an electronic equipment (11) employing a battery (1) as a power supply therefor so as to be opened and closed. When the battery (1) is used, the battery terminal case (16) is opened and thus a portion (14) where the battery (1) is disposed and connected is formed on an outer portion side of the equipment casing (12). The battery (1) is connected to the battery terminals (18), (19) and thereby electrically connected to the electronic equipment (11). When the battery (1) is not used, the battery terminal case (16) is closed, thereby housing the battery terminals (18), (19) on the side of the equipment casing (12). Therefore, it is possible to employ batteries having different sizes and different capacities as long as each of them has common terminal portions.
