 しかし、特許文献1、2に示したような構成においては、蓋体は、互いに対向する2辺でのみ筺体に固定される。この構成のため、蓋体の長手方向の中間部においては、蓋体が撓んで蓋体が筺体から浮いてしまう可能性がある。すると、この部分において防水パッキンの密着性が損なわれ、防水性が低下してしまう。 However, in the configuration as shown in Patent Documents 1 and 2, the lid is fixed to the casing only on two sides facing each other. Due to this configuration, there is a possibility that the lid body bends and the lid body floats from the housing in the middle part in the longitudinal direction of the lid body. Then, in this part, the adhesiveness of waterproof packing is impaired, and waterproofness will fall.
 また、近年、電子機器の高性能化により、電池パックの大型化が予想される。すると、電池パックの重量も増大するため、電子機器を落下させた場合等において、その衝撃により電池パックが飛び出そうとする力が強力になると考えられる。これにより蓋体が撓んで筺体から浮いたり、蓋体が脱落してしまう可能性が高まる。
 本発明の目的の一例は、蓋体を強固に固定して蓋体の脱落を防ぐとともに、防水性の低下を防ぐことのできる電子機器を提供することである。
In recent years, battery packs are expected to increase in size due to higher performance of electronic devices. Then, since the weight of the battery pack also increases, it is considered that when the electronic device is dropped, the force for the battery pack to pop out by the impact becomes strong. This increases the possibility that the lid body is bent and floats from the housing, or the lid body falls off.
An example of an object of the present invention is to provide an electronic device that can firmly fix a lid body to prevent the lid body from falling off and prevent deterioration in waterproofness.

 まず、電池パック20を斜めにして電池パック収容凹部16に挿入し、電池パック20の凹部22をリア筐体11Bの凸部19に嵌合させる。次いで、電池パック20の突起21が形成されている側を電池パック収容凹部16側に収める。
 このとき、図11A、11Bに示すように、電池ロック部材50は一側(図11A、11Bの右側)にスライドした状態である。即ち、電池ロック部材50はフリー状態である。これにより、突起21は、溝部52の突起通過部55に挿入される。
 次いで、電池ロック部材20を他側にスライドさせる。これにより、図12A、12Bに示すように、突起21は溝部52の突起収容部54に入り込み、電池パック20の脱落が規制される。
In such a configuration, the battery pack 20 is housed in the battery pack housing recess 16 with the lid 30 removed from the opening 15.
First, the battery pack 20 is inserted obliquely into the battery pack housing recess 16, and the recess 22 of the battery pack 20 is fitted to the protrusion 19 of the rear housing 11B. Next, the side on which the protrusion 21 of the battery pack 20 is formed is housed in the battery pack housing recess 16 side.
At this time, as shown in FIGS. 11A and 11B, the battery lock member 50 is slid to one side (the right side of FIGS. 11A and 11B). That is, the battery lock member 50 is in a free state. Thereby, the projection 21 is inserted into the projection passage portion 55 of the groove portion 52.
Next, the battery lock member 20 is slid to the other side. Thereby, as shown in FIGS. 12A and 12B, the protrusion 21 enters the protrusion accommodating portion 54 of the groove portion 52, and the battery pack 20 is prevented from falling off.
 そして、図13A~13Iに示すように、蓋体30を、開口部15に嵌め込む。このとき、蓋体30の筒状壁部32を内周壁部17の内側に挿入し、シールリング33を内周壁部17に突き当てた状態とする。図15に示すように、蓋体30を取り付けることによって、蓋体30の裏面31aに形成されている規制突起37が電池ロック部材50の一側(フリー状態)へのスライドを規制するように、スライドツマミ部53と略当接する位置に挿入される。
 この状態で、操作突起44はリア筺体11Bと蓋体30に形成された凹部60、61から、筺体11の外部に露出する。
Then, the lid 30 is fitted into the opening 15 as shown in FIGS. 13A to 13I. At this time, the cylindrical wall portion 32 of the lid body 30 is inserted inside the inner peripheral wall portion 17 and the seal ring 33 is brought into contact with the inner peripheral wall portion 17. As shown in FIG. 15, by attaching the lid body 30, the regulation protrusion 37 formed on the back surface 31 a of the lid body 30 regulates the slide to one side (free state) of the battery lock member 50. It is inserted at a position that substantially contacts the slide knob portion 53.
In this state, the operation projection 44 is exposed to the outside of the casing 11 from the recesses 60 and 61 formed in the rear casing 11B and the lid 30.
 この後、操作突起44を、開口部15の短辺15d側に向けてスライドさせることにより、ロックフレーム40を、溝18内で、短辺15d側にスライド移動させる。すると、図14A~14Iに示すように、ロックフレーム40の係合突起45が蓋体30の溝36に噛み合う(図14H参照)。それとともに、ロックフレーム40の係合段部46が、短辺15aにおいて内周壁部17の外周面に形成された係合爪64に係合する(図14I参照)。
 係合突起45の突出寸法S1は、係合段部46の突出寸法S2よりも小さい。このため、係合段部46と係合爪64との係合を先行させ、ロックフレーム40をリア筺体11Bに係合させた後に、係合突起45と溝36を係合させてロックフレーム40で蓋体30を係合させることができる。
 これと同時に、図14F、14Gに示すように、ロックフレーム40の係合フック43が、蓋体30の裏面31aに形成された係合爪35に係合する。具体的には、係合フック43の係合溝43cに係合爪35の平行壁部35bが挿入されることで、係合フック43の平行壁部43bと係合爪35の平行壁部35bとが対向した状態となる。これによって、蓋体30のフェイスプレート31がリア筺体11Bの表面11rから離間した方向に変位するのが拘束される。
Thereafter, the operation projection 44 is slid toward the short side 15d of the opening 15 to slide the lock frame 40 toward the short side 15d in the groove 18. Then, as shown in FIGS. 14A to 14I, the engagement protrusion 45 of the lock frame 40 meshes with the groove 36 of the lid 30 (see FIG. 14H). At the same time, the engaging step portion 46 of the lock frame 40 engages with an engaging claw 64 formed on the outer peripheral surface of the inner peripheral wall portion 17 at the short side 15a (see FIG. 14I).
The protrusion dimension S1 of the engagement protrusion 45 is smaller than the protrusion dimension S2 of the engagement step portion 46. For this reason, after the engagement of the engagement step portion 46 and the engagement claw 64 is preceded and the lock frame 40 is engaged with the rear housing 11B, the engagement protrusion 45 and the groove 36 are engaged, and the lock frame 40 is engaged. The lid 30 can be engaged.
At the same time, as shown in FIGS. 14F and 14G, the engagement hook 43 of the lock frame 40 engages with the engagement claw 35 formed on the back surface 31 a of the lid 30. Specifically, the parallel wall portion 35 b of the engagement hook 43 and the parallel wall portion 35 b of the engagement claw 35 are inserted by inserting the parallel wall portion 35 b of the engagement claw 35 into the engagement groove 43 c of the engagement hook 43. Are in a state of facing each other. This restrains the face plate 31 of the lid 30 from being displaced in a direction away from the surface 11r of the rear housing 11B.
 これによって、蓋体30が、開口部15の短辺15aに位置する係合突起45と、長辺15b、15cに位置する係合フック43とにより、その三辺においてロックフレーム40を介してリア筺体11Bに固定され、開口部15から外れない状態となる。これにより、蓋体30が強固に固定され、フェイスプレート31が撓むのを防ぐことができる。したがって、蓋体30の脱落を確実に防止し、シールリング33による防水性を確実に発揮することができる。
 また、ロックフレーム40をスライドさせるという1つの動作で蓋体30を確実に固定できる。
 さらに、一つのロックフレーム40により蓋体30を三辺で固定できるため、低コストで上記効果が得られる。
 また、携帯電話端末10の外観面から視認できるロックフレーム40は、操作突起44のみである。操作突起44の形状は従来からの蓋体のロック構造と変りないので、デザインの自由度が損なわれることもない。
As a result, the lid 30 is provided with the engagement protrusion 45 located on the short side 15a of the opening 15 and the engagement hook 43 located on the long sides 15b and 15c, and the rear side of the lid 30 via the lock frame 40. It will be in the state which is fixed to the housing 11B and cannot be removed from the opening part 15. FIG. Thereby, the lid 30 is firmly fixed, and the face plate 31 can be prevented from being bent. Accordingly, it is possible to reliably prevent the lid 30 from falling off and to reliably exhibit the waterproof property by the seal ring 33.
Further, the lid 30 can be reliably fixed by one operation of sliding the lock frame 40.
Furthermore, since the lid 30 can be fixed on three sides by one lock frame 40, the above-described effects can be obtained at low cost.
Further, the lock frame 40 that can be visually recognized from the appearance of the mobile phone terminal 10 is only the operation protrusion 44. Since the shape of the operation projection 44 is not different from the conventional lid lock structure, the degree of freedom in design is not impaired.
