Abstract

PURPOSE:To mount a battery in an IC card without making a mistake in its polarities. CONSTITUTION:When a battery holder 3 is drawn from an IC card body 1, an engaging pawl 7 of the holder 3 is engaged with a locking part 17 of the body 1 and held while the holder 3 remains mounted at the body 1. A battery is correctly seated at a battery mount 4 of the holder 3, the holder 3 is retracted in the body 1, and the battery is mounted in an IC card. If the holder 3 cannot be retracted in the body 1, the battery is erroneously placed in the holder 3, and hence an accident in which polarities of the battery are reversely set to be mounted in the card can be avoided.

The IC card is generally extremely thin, and the battery holder for mounting the battery on the IC card is inevitably constructed as an extremely small component. In the conventional IC card shown in FIG. 3, since the battery holder can be removed from the IC card body, it is necessary to pay close attention to handling the battery holder when replacing the battery, and the user accidentally removes the battery holder removed from the IC. You may lose it. Therefore, there is a problem that the card vendor must prepare the battery holder as a maintenance part.

In this state, the battery mounting portion 4 of the battery holder 3
Remove the used battery from and replace it with a new battery. In this case, since the battery mounting portion 4 has a groove shape following the outer shape of the battery 9 as shown in FIG. 2, unless the battery 9 is properly mounted in the battery mounting portion 4, the battery holder 3 is attached to the IC card. Since it cannot be drawn into the main body 1, it is possible to immediately determine whether the battery polarity is correct. That is, in the battery 9, as shown in FIG. 2, the anode 15 has a flat shape and the cathode 16 has a shape of the anode 15.
Since the groove shape of the battery mounting portion 4 of the battery holder 3 is a shape following the shape of the cathode 16, the battery holder 3 is seated on the battery holder 3 with the front and back sides upside down. In this case, the battery 9 does not fit well into the battery mounting portion 4, and the correctness of the polarity can be determined from the sitting posture of the battery 9.
