Abstract
A wireless terminal reliably supplies battery power to a wireless terminal body, and reduces the number of fabrication processes and fabrication cost. The battery contact system of the wireless terminal includes a body having a printed circuit board, a battery compartment, a battery detachably accommodated in the battery compartment, and at least one connection unit for transmitting battery power the body. The connection unit is an insulated elastic body protruding from the battery compartment and encompassing flexible conductors within the insulated elastic body.
Claims18
A battery contact system comprising:
- a body having a printed circuit board therein and having a battery compartment on one surface thereof;
- a battery detachably accommodated in the battery compartment;
- and
- at least one connection unit for transmitting battery power to the body, wherein each connection unit comprises an insulated elastic body protruding from the battery compartment and a flexible conductor provided within the insulated elastic body and having one end exposed to exterior of the insulated elastic body for contacting with the battery,
- wherein the insulated elastic body is inserted into a contact accommodation hole located within the body where the battery compartment is formed,
- wherein the insulated elastic body is compressed by direct contact with the battery when the battery is inserted into the battery compartment, and
- wherein when the insulated elastic body is compressed, the insulated elastic body expands to be in contact with an inner wall of the contact accommodation hole.
A wireless terminal comprising:
- a terminal body having a printed circuit board therein and having a battery compartment at one surface thereof;
- a battery detachably accommodated in the battery compartment;
- and
- at least one connection unit for transmitting battery power to the terminal body, wherein each connection unit comprises an insulated elastic body protruding from the battery compartment and a flexible conductor provided within the insulated elastic body and having one end exposed to exterior of the insulated elastic body for contacting with the battery,
- wherein the insulated elastic body is inserted into a contact accommodation hole located within the body where the battery compartment is formed,
- wherein the insulated elastic body is compressed by direct contact with the battery when the battery is inserted into the battery compartment, and
- wherein when the insulated elastic body is compressed, the insulated elastic body expands to be in contact with an inner wall of the contact accommodation hole.
A battery connection terminal for connecting a wireless terminal with a detachable battery, the battery connection terminal comprising:
- an insulated elastic body, and
- at least one flexible conductor disposed within the insulated elastic body, wherein the insulated elastic body is disposed within a body of the wireless terminal and connects with the detachable battery disposed in a battery compartment of the wireless terminal body,
- wherein the insulated elastic body is inserted into a contact accommodation hole penetrating the wireless terminal body located where the battery compartment is formed,
- wherein the insulated elastic body is compressed by direct contact with the battery when the battery is inserted into the battery compartment, and
- wherein when the insulated elastic body is compressed, the insulated elastic body expands to be in contact with an inner wall of the contact accommodation hole.
