However, in the above-mentioned conventional technology, the battery is fixed from the top surface with a presser spring, etc., and each time the battery is inserted or removed, the screw that fixes the presser spring etc. has to be removed, which is inconvenient. However, there was a problem in that the movement became thicker due to the pressure spring. Also, if the battery is held between the movement and the back cover of the case, the movement alone cannot hold the battery.
Since electrical continuity with the battery could not be established, it was necessary to check the movement itself during assembly or use a special jig for precision adjustment. In addition, devices in which the battery is held by the force applied to the side surface of the terminal member for establishing conduction have a problem in that the shape of the terminal member is complicated.

According to the above structure of the present invention, when the battery is installed, the metal plates 3 and 4 press the battery with a force that tends to make it pop out from the storage part 8, but the protrusion 5 is caused by the elastic deformation of the elastic part 9. Since the battery is pressed from the side with a force greater than the spring force of the metal plates 3 and 4, the battery is stably held within the storage portion 8. At this time, the elastic part 9 is elastically bent as the elongated hole 6 extends along the inner peripheral shape of the storage part 8, and transmits the spring force generated by the bending to the protrusion 5 to connect the protrusion 5 and the battery. Apply pressure.

In Figures 1 and 2, 1 is a plastic frame, 2 is a battery, 3 is an elastic metal plate that presses the battery 2 from the side to establish electrical continuity with the battery electrode, and 4 is a metal plate that presses the battery electrode. It is a metal plate with elasticity. The plastic frame 1 has a housing 8 surrounding the outer periphery of the battery 2 and holding the battery 2 therein. Reference numeral 5 denotes two protrusions that protrude from the inner periphery 8a of the storage portion 8 and face each other with the battery 2 sandwiched therebetween. A long hole 6 is provided at a position facing each protrusion 5 on the outside of the storage portion 8 so as to extend along the inner peripheral shape of the storage portion 8 . An elastic portion 9 that can be elastically deformed is formed in the remaining thickness between the inner periphery 8a of the storage portion 8 having the protrusion 5 and the elongated hole 6. Reference numeral 7 denotes a pry-opening groove formed in a part of the inner periphery of the storage portion 8 for removing the battery. The housing portion 8, projection 5, elongated hole 6, elastic portion 9, and groove 7 are integrally molded into the plastic frame 1. Therefore,
The storage part 8, protrusion 5, elastic part 9, elongated hole 6, and groove 7 can all be molded from plastic in one step, making manufacturing easy and allowing all parts to be assembled in a single assembly operation. , there are fewer assembly steps, which is very effective in reducing costs.

In the above configuration, when installing the battery 2 into the storage part 8, simply press-fit the battery 2 against the spring force of the elastic part 9, and the electrodes of the battery and the metal plates 3 and 4 will be in pressure contact with each other, ensuring a secure connection. Continuity can be established. At this time, the metal plates 3 and 4 press the battery 2 with a force that causes it to pop out from the storage part 8, but the protrusion 5 applies a force greater than the spring force of the metal plates 3 and 4 due to the elastic deformation of the elastic part 9. In order to press battery 2 from the side,
is stably held within the storage section 8. At this time, the elastic part 9 is elastically bent as the elongated hole 6 extends along the inner circumferential shape of the storage part 8, and transmits the spring force generated by the bending to the protrusion 5, so that the protrusion 5 and the battery This is to bring them into pressure contact. Therefore, fluctuations in dimensional accuracy can be absorbed, stable spring force can be obtained, and since elastic deformation is utilized, there is little deterioration of the spring force and the battery can be held reliably for a long time. Since the battery 2 is thus held by the elastic deformation of the elastic portion 9 that is integral with the plastic frame 1, there is no need to use a special elastic holding member such as a battery holding plate for holding the battery. Therefore, there is no need to incorporate small and difficult-to-handle parts to hold the battery during the assembly process, making the assembly process easier, and when replacing the battery, there is no need to worry about handling such parts or losing them. Batteries can be easily replaced. Furthermore, since no special elastic holding member is required, the number of parts can be reduced, making it possible to reduce costs and weight. In addition, the protrusion 5 integrated with the plastic frame 1 presses and holds the battery 2 from the side using the elastic deformation of the elastic part 9, making it possible to hold the battery with the watch movement alone. Since electrical continuity can be achieved through the metal plates 3 and 4, it is easy to adjust the time and check the functions of the watch during assembly. Furthermore, especially in wristwatches, being thin is a major factor in increasing the product value, which is very advantageous.

a The plastic frame 1 having the storage part 8 has an elastic part 9 which is formed by the remaining thickness between the inner periphery 8a of the storage part 8 having the protrusion 5 and the elongated hole 6 and can be elastically deformed. However, the projection 5 presses and holds the battery from the side with a large force due to the spring force of the metal plates 3 and 4 due to the elastic deformation of the elastic part 9, thereby resisting the elasticity of the elastic part 9 integral with the plastic frame 1. If the battery is press-fitted into the storage part 8, the battery can be easily held, and there is no need to use a special elastic holding member such as a battery holding plate.
4 are brought into pressure contact with each other to ensure continuity. Therefore, there is no need to incorporate an elastic holding member, which is a separate small and difficult-to-handle part, during assembly to hold the battery, which simplifies the assembly process and reduces the trouble of handling and losing such parts when replacing the battery. There is no need to worry about this, and the battery can be easily replaced. Also,
Since a special elastic holding member such as a battery holding plate is not required, the number of parts can be reduced, making it possible to reduce costs and weight.

b The elastic part 9 is formed by the remaining thickness between the inner periphery 8a of the storage part 8 having the protrusion 5 and the elongated hole 6,
Since it can be elastically deformed, a stable spring force can be obtained even if the protrusion dimensions vary, and it has the advantage of being able to maintain a constant battery pushing force for each product. In addition, by using elastic deformation, there is less deterioration of spring force.
