A lock structure for locking a battery cover 3, the lock fitted to a battery storage portion 2 in a housing body 1 of an electronic applicance. The lock structure includes a manipulation member 9, which is elastically deformed in a depth direction thereof by a slot formed in a portion of the housing body 1. The manipulation member 9 supports a lock member 6 with a spring, a top portion of the lock member 6 protruding into the battery storage portion. The battery cover 3 includes a rib with a notch portion 5 having a slanted edge. The battery cover 3 is locked with an engagement of the lock member with the notch portion.
