Abstract
A latching device applied in an electronic device includes a battery cover and a main body. The latching device includes an elastic member mounted on the battery cover facing the main body and a latching member slidably connected to the battery cover. The latching member includes an operation portion and at least one hook portion. The operation portion is exposed to users for sliding the latching member, and the hook portion is for hooking the main body when the battery cover covers the main body. When the battery cover is pressed to cover the main body, the operation portion is pushed to slide the latching member until the latching member resists the elastic member, and when the battery cover covers the main body, the push of the operation portion is removed, thus the elastic member resumes its natural state, and the at least one hook portion hooks the main body.
