Abstract
A battery assembly is configured to be installed on a drone. The battery assembly includes a battery, a chassis and some of swing arms. The chassis has a space within and is configured to accommodate the battery. The swing arms are pivotally connected with the chassis respectively and are located in the space. Each of the swing arms has a hook and a bump. The hooks at least partially face to each other. The bumps at least partially face to each other. When the battery is located in the space, the bumps are compressed by the battery to make the swing arms respectively rotate relative to the chassis, such that the hooks move close to each other and the battery is buckled and fixed in the space. At least one electrical connector located on the hooks contacts a conductor located on a side of the battery.
