This application relates to a POS
machine and a POS
machine equipped with a
backup battery (12), which includes a main unit (21), a rear cover (11) detachably connected to the main unit, and an
information security area located within the main unit (21). The rear cover (11) has a first battery compartment (11-1) for accommodating a
main battery (17) and a second battery compartment (11-3) for accommodating a
backup battery (12) on the side facing away from the main unit (21). Both the
main battery (17) and the
backup battery (12) are electrically connected to the
information security area after installation. The POS
machine also includes a first cover (16) detachably connected to the rear cover (11), which covers both the first battery compartment (11-1) and the second battery compartment (11-3) after installation. Because the POS machine provides a second battery compartment on the rear cover for the
backup battery, the
backup battery is no longer soldered to the PCB
motherboard inside the main unit, but is located on the side of the rear cover facing away from the main unit. Therefore, replacement can be performed simply by removing the first cover without triggering a security
attack alarm.
