Abstract
A battery-operated device, for example, a blood pressure measuring device, consists essentially of a housing (2) and a compartment (3) to accommodate batteries. The compartment (3) is rotatably hinge-connected to the housing (2). The compartment (3) can be pivoted between an insertion position (E) for receiving batteries and an operating position (B). The device (1) has a standing surface (15). The compartment (3) for accommodating batteries is arranged so that the outside surface (4) of the compartment (3) in the operating position (B) forms part of one of the side walls (16a, 16b, 16c), and the inside (8) of compartment (3) is open at the top to receive batteries in the insertion position (E).
Claims11
A battery-operated blood pressure measuring device, comprising a housing with an outside wall and with electrical components arranged therein
- and having a compartment for accommodating at least one battery,
- wherein said compartment for accommodating said at least one battery is rotatably hinge-connected to said housing in such a way that it is able to be rotated between an insertion position and an operating position,
- whereby said compartment has an outer surface forming a part of the outside wall of the housing in the operating position and
- whereby said at least one battery is insertable into the compartment in the insertion position.
A battery-operated blood pressure measuring device comprising a display and operating field and a compartment adapted to be closed by a flap and to accommodate at least one battery, and a standing surface, wherein said flap is arranged at an angle between 45° and 80°, to the standing surface when said compartment is closed by said flap.
