Abstract
A recharge apparatus for holding the rechargeable device and battery includes the cradle top and the cradle base. The cradle top includes the elastic gate, the battery-fixing clip, and the charge area. The elastic gate is an opening for inserting the rechargeable battery, and capable of rebounding against pressure so that the elastic gate does not clip the user's finger during operation, and also enhances the appearance as well as being dust-proof. The battery-fixing clip is used for clipping the rechargeable battery tightly. The charge area is an inserting area for charging the rechargeable devices, and has a stand pin to hold the rechargeable devices steadily by inserting the stand pin into the bottom of the rechargeable device. The cradle base assembled with the cradle top includes the elastic joint and recharge PCB (printed circuit board). One end of the elastic joint is designed as the upward curve to touch the rechargeable battery. When the rechargeable battery is inserted to recharge, the elastic joint is pressed downward, resulting in an upward rebounding force. In this way, the rechargeable battery is connected to the recharge PCB via the elastic joint.
