ABSTRACT:
A battery holder which allows the battery to be installed or removed easily and accurately has a fulcrum that is convex upward formed near the center portion of the bottom surface of the battery holder base. A battery mounting frame has a retainer to immobilize one side of the battery and a frame that secures an electrode and the battery has a retainer and a removing flange to immobilize the other side of the battery. To install the battery, one side of the battery is forced against the spring force of the negative contact while the other side of the battery is inserted between the bottom surface and the retainer. The battery rotates around the fulcrum and is installed in the battery container by a single touch of a finger. As the removing flange is pressed, the installed battery rotates around the fulcrum to allow one side of the battery to escape from the battery container, and ride over the retainer toward the upper side, to allow the battery to be lifted out.
