Abstract
A pen receptacle for detachably receiving an input pen for use in inputting information into an information processor includes a processor housing having a chamber defined therein for receiving the input pen, a retaining member for retaining the input pen inside the chamber, a locking member for locking the retaining member at a predetermined position where the input pen is retained inside the chamber, and a spring for biasing the retaining member in a direction required for the input pen to be ejected out of the chamber. By this construction, the input pen can be easily removed out of the chamber merely by pushing the input pen locked at the predetermined position.
