Abstract
A connector reception portion is configured such that, when a battery pack is housed in a battery housing portion, a battery cylindrical portion is positioned at a connector reception portion of the battery housing portion, and thereafter, while the battery pack is inclined so that the battery cylindrical portion is located diagonally forward and downward with respect to a battery mounting surface, the battery cylindrical portion is fitted within a peripheral wall of the connector reception portion, and the battery pack is inclined so that an inclination angle is smaller while the battery pack is pushed forward in a fitted state, and thereby the battery pack is laid on the battery mounting surface of the battery housing portion, and a battery connector is connected to connection terminals in a direction parallel to the battery mounting surface.
