A latch mechanism includes a main body engagement unit arranged in a main body having an opening or closing body that may open and close, an opening or closing body engagement unit arranged in the opening or closing body, the main body engagement unit includes a first engagement body having a pair of first top portions displaced in a direction orthogonal to a closing direction of the opening or closing body, a second engagement body, included in the opening and closing body engagement unit, having a pair of second top portions respectively contact with the pair of first top portions, and having a first slope that applies a force in a direction to open the opening or closing body to the second engagement body when the pair of first top portions is in contact with the pair the second top portion while closing the opening or closing body.

Latch mechanism and device including latch mechanism

A latch mechanism of an opening/closing door, which is used in a device including an opening/closing door that opens/closes an opening of a device body by using the opening/closing door, restrains the opening/closing door at a closing position, and releases a restrained state when the opening/closing door is opened, the latch mechanism includes an elastic component provided in one of the opening/closing door and the device body facing the opening, having a spring member expanding/contracting to be elastically deformable in one predetermined direction, and holding both end positions of the spring member to be floatable via a holder, and a latch component provided in the other of the opening/closing door and the device body, coming into contact with the holder of the elastic component when the opening/closing door closes the opening, having a latch member restraining the elastic component in a state where the spring member is elastically deformed from an initial state, and moving the holder against a biasing force of the spring member to release the restrained state between the elastic component and the latch member when the opening/closing door is opened from the closing position.

A receiving circuit in accordance with an exemplary aspect of the present invention includes a first voltage-dividing circuit that outputs a first input signal obtained by voltage division of one of differential signals based on the resistance ratio between first and second resistors, a second voltage-dividing circuit that outputs a second input signal obtained by voltage division of the other of the differential signals based on the resistance ratio between third and fourth resistors, a differential amplifier that amplifies the differential component between the first and second input signals, a common-mode voltage detection circuit that detects the common-mode voltage of the differential signals, and a bias voltage switching circuit that switches the voltage value of a bias voltage based on the common-mode voltage.

Receiving circuit

The exterior case of an electronic appliance is integrally molded by two-color molding or insert molding with a hard resin and a soft resin. A front case part and a back case part of the exterior case is formed of the hard resin, and a connecting part between the front case part and the back case part is formed of the soft resin. The front case part and the back case part are assembled into a case-like shape by bending the connecting part.

Exterior case of electronic appliance

A sealed nonaqueous secondary battery comprising a sealed-end battery case containing an electrodes assembly composed of a cathode, and an anode both capable of intercalating and deintercalating a light metal, a separator therebetween and a nonaqueous electrolytic solution, the opening of said battery case being sealed with an insulating gasket which is provided at the inner periphery of said opening and a sealing part which is held by the gasket and serves as a cathode or anode terminal, wherein the sealing part comprises an explosion-proof valve which is capable of being deformed to the direction opposite to the electrodes assembly with an increase in internal pressure, a vented terminal cap which is provided above the explosion-proof valve in the side opposite to the electrodes assembly, and a current breaker which is provided between the explosion-proof valve and the terminal cap; the current breaker having a piled structure composed of a first electric conductor having a penetrated hole which is provided at a side of the explosion-proof valve, an intermediate insulator having a penetrated hole at the central portion thereof, and a second electric conductor having a penetrated hole which is provided at a side of the terminal cap; the first electric conductor and the second electric conductor being electrically connected at the center thereof; and the first electric conductor having a thin part at the periphery of its joint with the second electric conductor.

Sealed nonaqueous secondary battery

A video camera (14) is loaded with a battery pack (11, 90) charged by an AC charger (15). The battery pack has a first pair of terminals (25, 26) for supplying electric power externally, and an outer wall (16). The AC charger has a second pair of terminals (53, 54), which are connectable to the first pair of terminals, and supply electric power externally. A receiving wall (21) is fitted on the outer wall. A detecting claw (66) is disposed to project from an inside to an outside of the receiving wall. The detecting claw is pressed by the outer wall and moved from the projected state to the retracted state. A terminal cover (60) is disposed on the receiving wall in a position covering the second pair of terminals and in movable fashion between the covering position and an uncovering position of uncovering the second pair of terminals. The terminal cover is pressed by the battery pack and moved from the covering position to an uncovering position. The second pair of terminals are connected to the first pair of terminals, and allow loading of the battery pack. A lock claw (65) is associated with the detecting claw and the terminal cover, stops the terminal cover in the covering position while the detecting claw is in the projected state, and allows the terminal cover to move to the uncovering position when the detecting claw is in the retracted state.
