[0002] Many small electronic devices are powered by replaceable batteries and have a battery compartment to hold the batteries and a removable battery cover to protect them. And such as Figure 14 As shown, in order to securely attach the battery cover 50 to the battery compartment, the battery cover 50 is provided with fixing hooks 51 and latches 52 located on both sides of the battery cover 50.
[0003] However, with the evolution of device designs, the location of the battery compartment and the shape of the battery cover 50 have become more diverse. Conventional fixing hooks 51 and latches 52 can only restrict the battery cover 50 in a single direction of movement, requiring the fixing hooks 51 and latches 52 to be positioned on different sides of the battery compartment to secure the battery cover 50. This makes it impossible to flexibly adjust the position of the fixing hooks 51 and latches 52 according to the device's design. Therefore, it is necessary to provide an embedded battery compartment with a more flexible placement that can be applied to devices of various shapes. Summary of the Invention

[0030] To explain in detail the technical content, structural features, objectives, and effects of the embedded battery compartment of this utility model, the following embodiments are provided with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0031] Please see Figures 1 to 3 The embedded battery compartment 100 of this invention is configured to be integrated into an electronic device 200 and serve as part of the outer casing of the electronic device 200. The embedded battery compartment 100 includes a battery compartment 10 recessed inward from the outer surface of the electronic device 200 and a battery cover 20 detachably fixed to the battery compartment 10. The battery compartment 10 includes a first mounting hole 11 located at the upper left of the battery compartment 10 and a second mounting hole 12 located at the upper right of the battery compartment 10. The battery cover 20 includes a first latching portion 21 that engages with the first mounting hole 11 and a second latching portion 22 that engages with the second mounting hole 12. The first mounting hole 11 is provided with a first locking block 111 located on the left side of the battery compartment 10, and the second mounting hole 12 is provided with a second locking block 121 located on the right side of the battery compartment 10, so that when the battery cover 20 is installed, the first locking part 21 is locked in the first mounting hole 11, and the second locking part 22 is locked in the first mounting hole 12, thereby fixing the battery cover 20 to the battery compartment 10.
[0032] Please see Figures 2 to 3 , Figure 11 as well as Figure 13 Both the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 have opposing upper sides 11a, 12a and lower sides 11b, 12b, as well as opposing left sides 11c, 12c and right sides 11d, 12d. The first locking block 111 is formed by protruding inward from the left side 11c of the first mounting hole 11. The second locking block 121 is formed by protruding inward from the right side 12d of the second mounting hole 12. In this embodiment, the first mounting hole 11 is further provided with a groove 112 that is recessed inward and forward from the inner side of the upper side 11a. The groove 112 communicates with the first mounting hole 11, and the outline of the groove 112 approximates the shape of the end of the first latching part 21. The second locking block 121 has a vertical protrusion 121a and a horizontal protrusion 121b. The vertical protrusion 121a extends along the right side 12d of the second mounting hole 12 in a vertical direction, while the horizontal protrusion 121b extends outward from the lower end of the vertical protrusion 121a in a horizontal direction. The vertical protrusion 121a is perpendicular to the horizontal protrusion 121b.
[0033] Please see Figure 4 The battery cover 20 has an inner wall 201, and both the first latching part 21 and the second latching part 22 are formed by protrusions from the surface of the inner wall 201 and are parallel to each other. See also... Figure 5 and Figure 11The first latching part 21 is approximately L-shaped and has a latching arm 21a, a latching finger 21b, and a groove 21c. The latching arm 21a extends from the inner wall 201, and the latching finger 21b extends from the end of the latching arm 21a, extending upward from the end of the latching arm 21a. The groove 21c is formed on the latching arm 21a. The width of the first latching part 21 is approximately the distance between the left side wall 11c and the right side wall 11d of the first mounting hole 11. After the first latching part 21 is engaged with the first mounting hole 11, the latching arm 21a is fixed between the first latching block 111 and the upper side surface 11a, and the latching finger 21b extends into the groove 112.
[0034] Please see Figure 6 as well as Figure 13 The second latching part 22 is approximately cuboid in shape and has an outer surface 22a and a bottom surface 22b. The second latching part 22 also has a latching groove 221 formed on the outer surface 22a and extending through the bottom surface 22b. In this embodiment, the outline of the latching groove 221 approximates the shape of the longitudinal protrusion 121a.
[0035] Please see Figures 7 to 8 In this embodiment, the battery cover 20 is typically made of a resilient material, such as plastic. When the battery cover 20 is installed on the electronic device 200, the first latching part 21 and the second latching part 22 pass through the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12, respectively, and then slide upward. During the sliding of the battery cover 20, because the first latching block 111 protrudes onto the moving path of the first latching part 21, the first latching part 21 interferes with the first latching block 111, causing the first latching part 21 to undergo slight deformation. Similarly, because the second latching block 121 protrudes onto the moving path of the second latching part 22, the second latching part 22 interferes with the second latching block 12, causing the second latching part 22 to undergo slight deformation.
[0036] Next, as Figures 9 to 13As shown, when the first latching part 21 completely passes through the first latching block 111, the latching finger 21b of the first latching part 21 slides into the groove 112, and the first latching block 111 is close to the bottom of the latching arm 21a of the first latching part 21. The first latching part 21 returns to its original shape from slight deformation and hooks the upper side surface 11a of the first mounting hole 11 and the groove 112, so that the up-down movement direction and the front-back movement direction of the battery cover 20 are restricted respectively. The longitudinal protrusion 121a of the second latching block 121 slides into the latching groove 221, and the second latching part 22 returns to its original shape after slight deformation. The latching groove 221 engages with the second latching block 121, and the transverse protrusion 121b abuts against the bottom surface 22b of the second latching part 22. This restricts the forward and backward movement and the up and down movement of the battery cover 20. Furthermore, since the first latching part 21 and the second latching part 22 pass through the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 respectively, the left and right movement of the battery cover 20 is restricted. Due to the above structural arrangement, the forward and backward movement, left and right movement, and up and down movement of the battery cover 20 are all restricted, thus fixing the battery cover 20 to the battery compartment 10.
[0037] Compared with the previous design, the embedded battery compartment 100 of this utility model uses the first latching part 21 and the second latching part 22 disposed on the inner wall 201, which are equipped with the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 of the first latching block 111 and the second mounting hole 121 as fixing elements. The two combinations of the first latching part 21, the second latching part 22 and the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 can respectively restrict multiple directions of movement of the battery cover 20, so that the two combinations of the first latching part 21, the second latching part 22 and the first mounting hole 11 and the second mounting hole 12 are not restricted by the setting on different sides, and the setting position can be flexibly adjusted according to the needs of the device to cope with various devices with different shapes.
[0038] Although the present invention has been disclosed above with reference to embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Anyone with ordinary knowledge in the art may make some modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the appended claims.
