ABSTRACT:
A portable electronic apparatus comprises a frame having a recessed portion for receiving a battery. The recessed portion has a bottom portion that has an upper surface on which the battery seats. A circuit board is disposed beneath the frame and has two locking holes positioned at spaced-apart locations beneath a lower surface of the bottom portion. A negative battery terminal is disposed in an opening formed in the bottom portion. The negative battery terminal has two battery contact spring portions for elastically contacting a negative terminal of the battery and two locking spring portions that are sandwiched between the lower surface of the bottom portion and the circuit board. The two locking spring portions terminate in elastically deformable locking portions that are inserted into, and elastically deformed to make pressure contact with, inner walls of respective ones of the locking holes.
