An information processing terminal comprising:
- a power supply for supplying electric power;
- an inlet connected to a power cord for supplying electric power to the power supply;
- an electronic board on which an arithmetic unit is mounted;
- a body cover which covers a body including at least the power supply and the electronic board;
- and
- a covering member disposed in the body or the body cover, the covering member being displaced to expose one of the inlet and at least one locking member, which should be removed to take the body cover out of the body, while covering the other.
A method for preventing electric shock in an information processing terminal including a power supply for supplying electric power, an inlet connected to a power cord for supplying electric power to the power supply, an electronic board on which an arithmetic unit is mounted, and a body cover covering a body including at least the power supply and the electronic board, the method comprising displacing a covering member to expose one of the inlet and at least one locking member, which should be removed to take off the body cover, while covering the other.
A covering structure for use in an information processing terminal, the covering structure comprising:
- a covering member when disposed in a first position exposes an inlet of an information processing terminal and covers at least one locking member of the information processing terminal;
- and
- a locking pin which attaches the covering member to the information processing terminal and allows the covering member to be disposed into a second position that covers the inlet and exposes the at least one locking member.
