４−１９７２１号公報）。2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is an electric device using a battery as a power source, such as a clock, having the following configuration in order to fix a battery holder to a frame. That is, the opposing bosses are protruded inside the two opposing frames, and a plurality of locking pieces are protruded from the edges of the battery holder toward the two frames,
A notch groove is formed in the boss portion so that the locking piece of the battery holder is inserted to regulate the movement in the thickness direction. Further, a positioning surface is formed on the boss portion to form the locking piece. In order to regulate the movement in the plane direction, a boss portion is also provided on the inside of the other frame body toward the one frame body, and a cut groove is also formed in the boss portion, and the boss portion is formed. There is one in which a locking piece of an opposed battery holder is inserted so as to restrict its movement in the thickness direction (Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 4-19721).

あった。In the prior art, a locking piece of a battery holder is inserted into a cut groove to restrict the movement of the locking piece in a thickness direction, and is formed on an outer surface of a boss portion. The positioning surface only restricts the movement of the locking piece facing the boss in the surface direction, so if a large impact such as dropping is applied, the battery moves up and down the battery holder violently. In some cases, an excessive load is applied to the locking pieces to break the locking pieces. Further, in order to cope with such a large impact, there is a type in which a dedicated boss portion for receiving the battery holder is further formed in close proximity to the bottom surfaces of the battery holders of the front and rear frames. There has been a problem that the shape of the body becomes complicated and the manufacturing cost increases.

近接対向するように配置している。The battery holder 3 has a concave shape with a lower opening, and a plurality of batteries 5 can be stored in the concave portion. On the outer peripheral portion of the battery holder 3, locking pieces 3 a and 3 b are integrally formed so as to project toward the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2, respectively. The thickness of the locking pieces 3a and 3b is determined by the groove 12 and the groove 22.
Therefore, the locking pieces 3a, 3b can be engaged in the grooves 12, 22 with a margin. Since the bottom of the battery holder 3 is open, the bottom surface of the battery holder 3 is an upper surface in the drawing, and this surface is close to the boss portions 11 and 21 provided below the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2. They are arranged to face each other.

いる。When assembling, first, the timepiece mechanical body 6 is fixed to the front frame 1, the pointer 7 is attached to the pointer shaft projecting forward, and the front glass 8 is covered. Thereafter, when the rear frame 2 is opposed to the front frame 1 from behind, the battery holder 3 is positioned so that the locking pieces 3a, 3b engage with the grooves 12, 22, and the bosses 20, 21 are screwed to the bosses 20, 21, respectively. , 41 are inserted, and the tip of the screw is projected from the opening at the tip thereof.
When the screw 41 is screwed into the female screw portions 10a, 11a of the boss portions 10, 11, the front frame 1 and the rear frame 2 are brought into close contact with each other, and the battery holder 3 is also engaged with the locking pieces 3a, 3b.
22 and is held in place. In this state, the lower boss portions 11 and 21 are closely opposed to the bottom surface of the battery holder 3 and are firmly connected by screws 41.
