A battery pack and an electronic device are proposed that suppress an increase in size of a battery pack, and decrease damage to a battery element due to an external impact. A battery pack includes: a battery cell including a battery element; at least one holder facing an end of the battery element; and an impact absorbing structure formed at the holder.

Battery pack and electronic device

A temperature detection element is allowed to more accurately detect a temperature of a battery pack. A battery pack includes: a battery cell; a temperature detection element; and a thermally conductive member transferring heat of the battery cell to the temperature detection element.

The battery apparatus according to the present invention has the structure in which a lid is engaged with a battery storage to cover a storage portion storing a battery unit via a first fixing means employing a simple structure. Further, the battery storage is formed of the frame and a closing unit engaged via a second fixing means only employing a simple structure. Furthermore, since the battery storage, or the lid, or the closing unit is formed of metal; and the thickness thereof is made thinner, the capacity of the storage portion can be increased to the extent of the reduction in the thickness, whereby the amount of electricity can be increased.
