Locking device, electronic device, and locking method

It is an object to reduce a load given to connectors when the connectors are connected with each other in a connection mechanism composed of the main body side connector and the base unit side connector in which contact terminals of both the connectors are contacted with each other when the connectors are moved in the mutual direction. The base unit side contact terminal is movably attached to the housing of the base unit so that the base unit side contact terminal can be located at a non-contact position with respect to the contact terminal of the main body side connector at the first stage of engagement between the connectors and so that the base unit side contact terminal can be located at a contact position with respect to the main body side connector at the latter stage of engagement between the connectors
