Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2023-0146791, filed on October 30, 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth herein. Technical Field

[0003] The present invention relates to a secure device storage kit for personal mobile devices. Background Art

[0004] In recent years, the increasing use of smart mobile devices for first-mile or last-mile transportation has expanded the use of sharing services, such as shared electric scooters.

[0005] As a result, the regulation of devices required to promote the safety of e-scooter users has also been strengthened, and recently, it has become mandatory to wear safety devices such as helmets for the safety of users when using e-scooters. This may be considered appropriate, especially considering that serious injuries caused by e-scooter-related accidents mainly occur in the head or face.

[0006] Therefore, users of personal mobility devices such as electric scooters are required to use a helmet that the user personally owns or that is provided by the sharing service provider.

[0007] However, the usage rate of the hard hat is relatively low because the hard hat may squeeze and mess up the user's hair, or the user may experience the inconvenience of having to carry his or her hard hat with him or her at all times.

[0008] The helmets provided by the sharing service provider are exposed to the outside and reused multiple times by unspecified users, so there may be anxiety and concerns about contamination and hygiene.

[0009] Furthermore, if users do not carry their helmets with them at all times, there may be a risk of theft and loss, and therefore, sharing service providers may not be able to easily provide helmets to these users. Summary of the invention

[0074] Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figure 1 : is a perspective view showing an electric scooter according to one embodiment of the present invention, to which a kit for storing a safety device for a personal mobility device (also referred to herein as a "safety device storage kit for a personal mobility device") is applied. Figure 2 is a perspective view showing the interior of a housing according to one embodiment of the present invention.

[0075] Referring to the accompanying drawings, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a safety device storage kit for a personal mobile device 1 may include: a shell 100, in which an airbag module 10 wearable on a user can be accommodated; a cover 200, which is suitable for covering the top of the shell 100 to prevent foreign matter from entering; and a steering shaft fastening portion 300, which is suitable for connecting one side of the shell 100 to the steering shaft 20 of the personal mobile device 1.

[0076] like Figure 1 As shown in other figures, the safety device storage kit can be fixedly mounted on the steering shaft 20 of the personal mobility device 1, and the airbag module 10 as a personal safety device can be accommodated therein to prevent contamination by external pollutants and prevent theft or loss.

[0077] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the airbag module 10 may be wrapped around the neck of the user in a form in which one side thereof is opened, and may detect an applied external impact in an activated state to deploy the airbag, thereby protecting the head of the user.

[0078] The airbag module 10 may include an airbag helmet 11, which is suitable for wrapping around the user's neck when worn; a sensor, which is suitable for sensing external impact applied to the user through the personal mobile device 1; a controller, which is suitable for determining whether to deploy the airbag based on the sensing result of the sensor; and an activation device 13, which is suitable for determining whether to switch the sensor and the controller to an activated state or keep them in a deactivated state.

[0079] The airbag module 10 may further include a charging module 12 in which the sensor and the controller may be accommodated, and a battery for providing power to operate the sensor and the controller may be provided, which may be adapted to receive power for charging the battery while being accommodated in the housing 100 .

[0080] One side of the airbag helmet 11 may be open to facilitate wearing by the user, and such opening of the airbag helmet 11 may be provided by Figure 4 The activation device 13 is shown locked to prevent the airbag module 10 from falling off the neck of the user during operation of the personal mobility device 1 .

[0081] When the activation device 13 is connected to the other side of the airbag helmet 11 while closing the opening of the airbag helmet 11, the sensor and controller can be switched to an activated state, and when the activation device 13 is separated from the other side of the airbag helmet 11, the sensor and controller can be switched to a deactivated state.

[0082] The airbag module 10 may be a wearable safety device that may be used as a safety helmet for a user (also referred to herein as a "wearer") of a personal mobility device (e.g., personal mobility device 1), or as a device for protecting against falling objects at construction sites, etc. The airbag module 10 may be a safety device used in various forms as described above. Because the present invention relates to a storage kit for storing such an airbag module, a more detailed description of the airbag module itself will be omitted herein.

[0083] Figure 3 and Figure 4 An example is shown in which the airbag module 10 is provided in a form having an open space on one side thereof, and an example in which the airbag module 10 enters an activated state when the open space is closed by the activation device 13. This is provided only as an example, and for example, the airbag module may also be provided in the form of a closed loop that is wrapped around the neck of the wearer without such an open space, and the airbag module may be adapted to automatically enter an activated state by a switch operation of a user or by a human body wearing detection sensor.

[0084] like Figure 2As shown, the housing 100 may include an inner wall portion 110 spaced apart to support the inner circumference of the airbag module 10 , and a mounting portion 120 recessed at the bottom of the housing 100 , into which the charging module 12 provided in the airbag module 10 may be inserted.

[0085] The inner wall portion 110 may include: a barrier wall 111 protruding from the center of a side wall of the shell 100 toward the internal space; a first inner wall 112, which is spaced apart from the barrier wall 111 on one side and protrudes from the bottom surface of the shell 100 toward the upper space; and a second inner wall 113, which is spaced apart from the barrier wall 111 on the other side and protrudes from the bottom surface of the shell 100 toward the upper space, and the second inner wall 113 is configured to accommodate the airbag module 10 so that the inner peripheral surfaces in contact with the wearer's body are spaced apart and do not contact each other, so as to disinfect the airbag module 10 while keeping it in an inactive state.

[0086] The barrier wall 111 may be provided at the center of one side of the inner circumferential surface of the housing 100 to prevent both ends of the airbag module 10 from being connected to each other when the airbag module 10 is accommodated in the housing. When the airbag module 10 is accommodated in the housing 100, it is possible to prevent the activation device 13 of the airbag module 10 from being connected and to keep the airbag module 10 in a deactivated state when stored.

[0087] like Figure 5 As shown, the first inner wall 112 and the second inner wall 113 may be spaced apart from both the inner circumferential surface of the housing 100 and the barrier wall 111, so that they are respectively surrounded by both sides of the airbag module 10. The first inner wall 112 and the second inner wall 113 may be installed to be spaced apart by a distance sufficient to allow the activation device 13 to remain in a released state when the airbag module 10 is accommodated.

[0088] The airbag module 10 may be accommodated in the housing 100 by docking therein in a state in which the barrier wall 111 is inserted in the open space of the airbag module 10 and the first and second inner walls 112 and 113 are inserted between inner circumferential surfaces of both ends of the airbag module 10 .

[0089] When not in the released state, the activation device 13 may be caught by the barrier wall 111 and prevent the cover 200 from closing, which may guide the user to properly accommodate or store the airbag module 10 . Figure 5 A state in which the airbag module 10 can be normally accommodated in the housing 100 is shown.

[0090] like Figure 7 As shown, the front side of the barrier wall 111 and the peripheries of the first inner wall 112 and the second inner wall 113 may have ultraviolet-C light emitting diodes (UVC LEDs) 114 to sterilize the inner circumferential surface of the airbag module 10 .

[0091] The UVC LED 114 may be an LED suitable for destroying the DNA and RNA molecular structure of germs or bacteria by generating ultraviolet light with a wavelength of 200 to 280 nanometers (nm), thereby performing disinfection and sterilization. Therefore, when the airbag module 10 is stored in the housing 100 after use, the UVC LED 114 may disinfect or sterilize the area that comes into contact with the user's body during use of the personal mobility device 1 (such as an electric scooter), thereby maintaining a clean state.

[0092] like Figure 6 As shown, the mounting portion 120, i.e., the space into which the charging module 12 disposed in the airbag module 10 can be inserted, can be formed as a recess on the bottom of the shell 100, and has a charging terminal 121 on its bottom surface, to which the charging module 12 can be electrically connected for charging the battery disposed in the airbag module 10.

[0093] The mounting portion 120 may be configured in various shapes based on the shape and position of the charging terminal 121 provided in the charging module 12. Figure 6 The mounting portion 120 shown in FIG. 1 is disposed in front of the barrier wall 111 , but the example is not limited thereto, and it is understood that it is formed in various ways according to the shape and position of the charging module 12 accommodated in the housing 100 .

[0094] When the airbag module 10 is in use by being worn on a user after being taken out for operation of the personal mobility device 1 , the inner space of the housing 100 may be used as a storage space.

[0095] like Figure 7 As shown, since the mounting portion 120 has the charging terminal 121 disposed therein, it can allow the charging terminal of a smart device such as a smartphone or a tablet to be electrically connected to the charging terminal 121 for charging.

[0096] The shape of the charging module 12 disposed in the airbag module 10 and the shape of the smart device may be different. Figure 8 As shown, the mounting portion 120 may further include guide portions 122 extending toward both sides to temporarily clamp both sides of the smart device, thereby preventing the smart device from being shaken or separated from the charging terminal 121 during operation of the personal mobile device 1. The guide portion 122 may also be further extended to prepare for the case where the target to be mounted and charged on the mounting portion 120 is a tablet personal computer (PC).

[0097] The housing 100 may use a space generated when the airbag module 10 is removed therefrom as a storage space, and may further have an extension portion 130 formed to store a user's specific size or smaller items such as a smartphone or a wallet even when the airbag module 10 is accommodated. Fig. 9 As shown, this helps improve the convenience of users using the personal mobile device 1.

[0098] like Fig.11 As shown, the housing 100 may further include a heat exchanger 140 as a cooling device for cooling a kettle or a beverage bottle stored in the mounting portion 120 when the airbag module 10 is removed.

[0099] like Fig.11 As shown, the heat exchanger 140 may be adapted to start operating by detecting that a kettle or beverage bottle requiring cooling is stored in the mounting portion 120 , and stop operating by detecting that the kettle or beverage bottle is removed from the mounting portion 120 .

[0100] Therefore, if Fig.11 As shown, the mounting portion 120 may further include a pressure sensor 150 adapted to detect whether an item is accommodated because it is pressed by the load of an item (such as a kettle or a beverage bottle) received above and returns to its original state when the received item is removed.

[0101] On the bottom surface of the mounting portion 120, in addition to the pressure sensor 150, a charging terminal 121 suitable for charging the airbag module 10 or a smart device may be provided. Therefore, the controller 101 provided in the housing 100 for controlling the operation of the heat exchanger 140 may determine that cooling is required in the case where only a detection signal is generated from the pressure sensor 150 without any electrical connection to the charging terminal 121, and may control the heat exchanger 140 to operate. Even if a detection signal is generated from the pressure sensor 150, when it is determined that there is an electrical connection to the charging terminal 121, the controller 101 may determine that charging of the airbag module 10 is in progress, and may control the charging power supplied to the airbag module 10 without the operation of the heat exchanger 140.

[0102] In addition, if Fig.12 and 13 As shown, the pressure sensor 150 may be installed on the bottom surface of the mounting portion 120 to detect whether it is pressed by an object received in the mounting portion 120 .

[0103] The pressure sensor 150 may measure a change in a stroke value caused by the self-weight or shape of an object accommodated in the mounting portion 120 , and transmit it to the controller 101 provided in the housing 100 .

[0104] Therefore, by determining whether the airbag module 10 is normally accommodated based on the change in the stroke value transmitted from the pressure sensor 150, the controller 101 can prevent an error from returning the personal mobility device 1 when another object is accommodated.

[0105] Based on the validity of the change in the stroke value sent from the pressure sensor 150 (for example, the stroke value before accommodating the airbag module 10 is 0 mm and the stroke value after accommodating the airbag module 10 is 5 mm), the controller 101 can determine whether the airbag module 10 is accommodated in the normal position.

[0106] Furthermore, when it is determined that the airbag module 10 is accommodated in the normal position, the controller 101 may determine that the battery of the charging module 12 provided in the airbag module 10 and the charging terminal 121 provided in the housing 100 are electrically connected and control charging to be performed.

[0107] like Fig.14 As shown, the cover 200 may be a plate covering the top of the housing 100, and may be pivotally coupled to the housing 100 via a hinge 210. Although the cover 200 may be configured to be completely detachable from the housing 100, in this case, there may be a risk of loss and falling off from the housing 100 during operation of the personal mobile device 1. The cover 200 may desirably have one side fixed to the housing 100 via the hinge 210.

[0108] In addition, if Fig.15 and 16 As shown, the cover 200 may have a locking ring 220 protruding downward from the bottom surface, and the housing 100 may further have a fastening ring 160 fastened to the locking ring 220 so that the cover 200 is fixed to the housing 100 , and a locking mechanism 170 adapted to rotatably operate the fastening ring 160 .

[0109] Therefore, this can prevent the cover 200 from opening to expose the airbag module 10 when the personal mobility device 1 is not in operation, and can also prevent the cover 200 from opening due to an impact transmitted through the foot pedal of the personal mobility device 1 when the personal mobility device 1 is in operation.

[0110] The locking mechanism 170 may be configured as a manual locking device, i.e. Fig.15 As shown, the cover 200 may be closed to move the locking ring 220 toward the locking mechanism 170 , which may then be rotated to allow the fastening ring 160 to be fastened to the manual locking device of the locking ring 220 .

[0111] In addition, the locking mechanism 170 can also be configured as an automatic locking device 180, such as Fig.16To this end, the cover 200 may have a magnet 190 , and the housing 100 may further have a magnet sensor 191 adapted to sense contact with the magnet 190 .

[0112] In this automatic locking device 180, the magnet sensor 191 can sense the contact of the magnet 190 to determine whether the housing 100 is covered by the cover 200, and the fastening ring 160 can be automatically rotated to be fastened to the locking ring 220, so that the automatic locking device 180 can be switched to a locked state. An additional operation button can be provided to open or close the cover 200.

[0113] In addition, the steering shaft fastening portion 300 can couple the housing 100 to the steering shaft 20 of the personal mobile device 1 to store the airbag module (e.g., the airbag module 10) of each personal mobile device (e.g., the personal mobile device 1), and can also allow the housing 100 to rotate while being coupled to the steering shaft 20 to minimize the space occupied by the housing 100 when the personal mobile device 1 is held, such as Fig.17 shown.

[0114] Therefore, for sharing services that use personal mobile devices, the space occupied by each personal mobile device may not be large even when recycled, which can maximize recycling efficiency.

[0115] like Fig.18 As shown, the steering shaft fastening portion 300 may include: a shell connecting portion 310, which may be a main body fixed to one side of the shell 100; a rotating hinge 320, which can be rotated by an external force while being fastened to the shell connecting portion 310; a rotating bracket 330, which is suitable for providing a space for the rotating hinge 320 to rotate; and a fixed bracket 340, which is connected to the rotating bracket 330 while being fastened to the steering shaft 20 of the personal mobile device 1.

[0116] Therefore, in the steering shaft fastening portion 300, the housing coupling portion 310 can be fixedly coupled to one side of the housing 100, the rotating hinge 320 can be coupled to the housing coupling portion 320, the rotating bracket 330 can be coupled to the rotating hinge 320 to allow the rotating hinge 320 to rotate in the rotating bracket 330, and the rotating bracket 330 can also be fixedly coupled to the fixing bracket 340, which can only allow the housing 100 to rotate while maintaining the position coupled to the steering shaft 20.

[0117] The housing coupling portion 310 may have a bottom surface fixed to the housing 100 , and a top surface opened for mounting the first fixing portion 321 of the rotary hinge 320 and coupling the rotary bracket 330 .

[0118] In addition, if Fig.19As shown, the rotating hinge 320 may include: a first fixing portion 321 fixed to the shell connecting portion 310; a second fixing portion 322, which is arranged on the bottom surface of the first fixing portion 321 and fixed to the rotating bracket 330; and a rotating shaft 323, which is vertically connected to the first fixing portion 321 and the second fixing portion 322 by passing through the first fixing portion 321 and the second fixing portion 322, so that the first fixing portion 321 and the second fixing portion 322 have the same rotation center but rotate at different heights.

[0119] like Fig. 20 As shown, the first fixing portion 321 can be screwed to the housing connecting portion 310, as shown in FIG. Fig.21 As shown, the second fixing portion 322 may be screwed to the rotating bracket 330 .

[0120] When an external force is applied, the first fixing portion 321 may rotate together with the housing 100, and the second fixing portion 322 may remain fixed under the influence of the rotating bracket 330, and the rotating bracket 330 may be fixed to the fixed bracket 340 despite the rotation of the housing 100. The housing 100 may rotate around a rotating shaft 323 provided in the rotating hinge 320. The housing 100 may rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the rotating shaft 323.

[0121] In addition, the rotating bracket 330 may have a fixing portion fastening groove 331 formed on one side thereof and a bracket fastening groove 332 formed on the other side, as shown in FIG. Fig.19 As shown, the second fixing portion 322 can be screwed to the fixing portion fastening groove 331, as shown in FIG. Fig.18 As shown, the fixing bracket 340 can be screwed into the bracket fastening groove 332 .

[0122] like Fig.19 As shown, the fixing portion fastening groove 331 can be formed as a pair relative to the area where the rotating shaft 323 is provided, one of which is at the top and the other is at the bottom, or, can be formed as a pair relative to the area where the rotating shaft 323 is provided, one of which is at the left side and the other is at the right side, so that the two sides of the second fixing portion 322 extending up and down or left and right relative to the rotating shaft 323 are connected.

[0123] Therefore, if Fig.21 As shown, the second fixing portion 322 can be screwed to a pair of fixing portion fastening grooves 331 (in Fig.21 The second fixing portion 322 is shown as a fixing portion fastening groove provided at the top and bottom of the rotating shaft 323 in the figure) to fix the rotating hinge 320 to the rotating bracket 330. That is, the second fixing portion 322 can be selectively coupled to any one of the two pairs of fixing portion fastening grooves 331 according to the desired direction of the rotating housing 100.

[0124] In addition, at least one stopper 333 may be further formed on both sides of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 to protrude upward from one side of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 to the bottom surface of the rotating bracket 330, thereby limiting the rotation direction and rotation radius of the first fixing portion 321. Since the second fixing portion 322 is fixed to the rotating bracket 330, the stopper 333 may limit the rotation direction and rotation radius of the first fixing portion 321.

[0125] The stopper 333 may be disposed on one side of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 and may protrude longer so that the first fixing portion 321 is stuck to limit rotation, and the stopper 333 may be disposed on the other side and may protrude shorter so that the first fixing portion 321 is not stuck.

[0126] Therefore, if Fig.23 As shown, the stopper 333 can be installed at a diagonal position on both sides of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 centered on the position of the rotating shaft 323, and can protrude longer to limit the rotation of the first fixing portion 321, and the stopper 333 can be installed at another diagonal position, and can also protrude shorter to not limit the rotation of the first fixing portion 321.

[0127] like Fig.23 As shown, the stopper 333 may be disposed at the upper left and lower right sides of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 and may protrude longer, and the stopper 333 may be disposed at the upper right and lower left sides of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 and may be formed shorter. The short stopper 333 may support one side of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 to which the second fixing portion 322 is coupled, thereby preventing the second fixing portion 322 from rotating together.

[0128] like Fig.23 As shown, since the stopper 333 may be disposed in a diagonal direction of the fixing portion fastening groove 331 , the first fixing portion 321 may be rotated only within a range of 90° counterclockwise.

[0129] When the rotating bracket 330 is rotated 90° to be coupled to the fixing bracket 340, the stopper 333 that limits the rotation of the first fixing portion 321 may be located at the upper right and lower left sides of the fixing portion fastening groove 331, as shown in FIG. Fig.21 As shown, the first fixing portion 331 can therefore only rotate within a range of 90° clockwise.

[0130] In addition, the bracket fastening groove 332 may be formed on a plate protruding from the other side of the rotating bracket 330 to facilitate screwing to the fixed bracket 340. The bracket fastening groove 332 may be formed on a plate protruding laterally from the other side of the rotating bracket 330, such as Fig. 22 As shown, to facilitate connection with the fixing bracket 340.

[0131] In addition, if Fig.24 and 25 As shown, the housing coupling portion 310 may be formed as a double-wall structure of an outer wall 313 and an inner wall 312 , so that the rotating bracket 330 may be cooperatively inserted into the space between the outer wall 313 and the inner wall 312 .

[0132] like Fig.24 As shown, at least one fixing protrusion 311 that protrudes outward and can be repeatedly compressed and restored by the elastic body disposed therein can be provided on the outer peripheral surface of the inner wall 312 of the housing coupling portion 310, and as shown in FIG. Fig.25 As shown, at least one fixing recess 334 recessed outwardly may be formed on the inner wall of the rotating bracket 330 .

[0133] Therefore, whenever the shell 100 rotates while the rotating bracket 330 is connected to the shell connecting part 310, the fixing protrusion 311 set in the shell connecting part 310 can be compressed and then squeezed and accommodated in the fixing recess 334 by the elastic force of the elastomer, thereby maintaining the changed state after rotation.

[0134] like Fig.24 and 25 As shown, the fixing protrusion 311 and the fixing recess 334 may be spaced 90° from the outer circumferential surface of the inner wall 312 of the housing coupling portion 310 and the inner wall of the rotating bracket 330. Therefore, whenever the housing 100 rotates 90°, the fixing protrusion 311 may be accommodated in the fixing recess 334, thereby allowing the changed state after the rotation to be maintained.

[0135] In addition, the fixing bracket 340 can be coupled to the rotating bracket 330 while being screwed to the steering shaft 20, thereby fixing the housing 100 to the steering shaft 20. To this end, the fixing bracket 340 can be provided in a structure in which the steering shaft 20 can be inserted into a groove formed in the center, one end is open to allow a plate formed on the rotating bracket 330 to be inserted and screwed, and the other end is closed to prevent the coupled steering shaft 20 from falling off.

[0136] However, it should be noted that the fixing bracket 340 is not limited to Fig.18 As shown in the shape, various shapes may be provided that can secure the rotating bracket 330 to a personal mobility device (eg, the personal mobility device 1).

[0137] In addition, if Figure 26 to Figure 28 As shown, the fixed bracket 340 may also be coupled to the rotating bracket 330 by a snap-fit ​​coupling while being fixed to the steering shaft 20 .

[0138] like Fig. 27 and Fig.28As shown, the fixed bracket 340 may include a fixed bracket hook 341 at one end, a detachable switch 342 suitable for applying an external force to the fixed bracket hook 341 to separate it from the rotating bracket 330, and a spring 343 suitable for being compressed by the external force applied by the detachable switch 342 and returning to its original state when the external force is removed and maintaining the connection state of the fixed bracket hook 341.

[0139] As such, when the fixing bracket 340 is coupled to the rotating bracket 330 by snap-fit ​​coupling for easy separation or coupling by operation of the detachable switch 342 , convenience in coupling and detaching the housing 100 may be improved.

[0140] Furthermore, the housing 100 may be rotatably coupled to the fixing bracket 340 fixed to the steering shaft 20 through the rotating hinge 320 and the rotating bracket 330 , and may also be fixed to the fixing bracket 340 in a non-rotatable structure through bolt coupling or snap-fit ​​coupling, etc.

[0141] like Fig.29 As shown, the present invention may also include a removable battery 400 suitable for providing power to charge the airbag module 10 through the charging module 12, and a battery accommodating portion 410 formed on the bottom surface of the shell 100 for electrically connecting to the charging module 12 and serving as a space for installing the removable battery 400. Fig.29 The left side of shows a state in which the removable battery 400 is installed in the battery receiving portion 410 , and the right side thereof shows a state in which the removable battery 400 is separated.

[0142] like Fig.30 As shown, the detachable battery 400 may have a battery hook 420 formed on the outside for snap-fit ​​coupling, and the battery receiving portion 410 may have a battery engaging protrusion 411 on which the battery hook 420 is engaged.

[0143] Therefore, by simply pushing the detachable battery 400 into the battery receiving portion 410 , the battery hook 420 may be caught on the battery engaging protrusion 411 , thereby facilitating the coupling.

[0144] Furthermore, the detachable battery 400 may have an inwardly recessed battery groove 430 for battery locking on the outside, and the battery receiving portion 410 may have a battery locking device 440 inserted into or released from the battery groove 430 by a rotation operation.

[0145] Therefore, if Fig.31 The left side and Fig.32 As shown, when the removable battery 400 is installed in the battery receiving portion 410 , the battery locking device 440 may be inserted into the battery groove 430 to keep it locked, which may prevent the removable battery 400 from falling off due to an unexpected external impact.

[0146] In addition, if Fig.31 The right side and Fig.33 As shown, in order to release the detachable battery 400 , the battery locking device 440 may be rotationally operated to be released from the battery recess 430 , and then the battery hook 420 may be operated to be separated from the battery receiving portion 410 .

[0147] It may be desirable that the battery locking device 440 be rotatable with a thin object (such as a key or a special tool) inserted into the recessed operating portion to prevent it from being easily rotated by an unexpected external force.

[0148] In addition, the removable battery 400 can be charged by a power cord connected to a power source (such as a separate external battery) while being installed in the battery receiving portion 410 for convenient use. To this end, it may be necessary to provide a power terminal on the bottom surface of the housing 100 to which a power cord for supplying power to the removable battery 400 is connected.

[0149] Although exemplary embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications or changes in form and details may be made in these embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention and its equivalents.
