Abstract

A plug-in charging battery module being arranged at the external portion of a portable electronic mainframe is disclosed. The plug-in charging battery module comprises a battery cover arranged on a battery seat and a plug-in power source seat arranged on the battery cover. By the aforesaid construction, the portable electronic mainframe can be charged and used at the same time. Moreover, as being charged, no battery is necessary to be detached; therefore, the use and carrying of the electronic mainframe are convenient.

Claims
