Portable electronic device having power maintenance function during replacement of battery
First Claim
1. A portable electronic device having a power maintenance function during replacement of a battery, the portable electronic device comprising:
- a main body which forms an appearance of a portable electronic device; and
a battery for supplying a main power which is detachably connected to the main body, and is configured to be charged by an external power and supply the main power to the portable electronic device,wherein the main body comprises;
an auxiliary power supply module which is fixedly provided inside of the main body, and is configured to supply an auxiliary power to the portable electronic device, when the battery is separated from the main body;
a power control circuit configured to control a power supply to the portable electronic device;
a switching terminal configured to connect the power control circuit with the battery or the auxiliary power supply module;
a first terminal configured to, when the battery is connected to the main body, contact a connection terminal of the battery and the switching terminal to connect the battery with the power control circuit; and
a second terminal which is provided in the auxiliary power supply module to be connected therewith, and is configured to, when the battery is separated from the main body, contact the switching terminal to connect the auxiliary power supply module with the power control circuit, wherein the second terminal is not deformed in a shape when the battery is separated from the main body and when the battery is connected to the main body,wherein the power control circuit controls the power supply to the portable electronic device when the switching terminal contacts any one of the battery for supplying the main power and the auxiliary power supply module; and
the switching terminal is formed by bending conductive metal having self-elasticity, is configured to, when the battery is separated from the main body, be in contact with the second terminal after being in disconnected with the first terminal, and is configured to, when the battery is connected to the main body, be pressed together with the first terminal by the connection terminal of the battery so as to deform a shape thereof, and be disconnected from the second terminal.

7. A portable electronic device comprising:
-
a battery for supplying a main power to the portable electronic device via a connection terminal; and a main body to which the battery is detachably connected, the main body comprising; an auxiliary power supply module provided inside of the main body to supply an auxiliary power to the portable electronic device when the battery is separated from the main body; a power control circuit to control a power supply to the portable electronic device; a switching terminal connecting the power control circuit with the battery or the auxiliary power supply module, the switching terminal having self-elasticity; a first terminal having self-elasticity connected with the battery when the battery is connected to the main body; a second terminal connected with the auxiliary power supply module when the battery is separated from the main body, wherein, when the battery is separated from the main body, the first terminal is not in contact with the switching terminal, and the second terminal is in contact with the switching terminal; and when the battery is connected to the main body, the battery presses the first terminal toward the switching terminal, and the pressed first terminal presses the switching terminal to deform the switching terminal, thereby making the switching terminal be disconnected from the second terminal. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11)
