Abstract
A connection terminal structure of a cordless telephone or similar electronic equipment to which an instrument having a connector is connectable for measuring electrical characteristics of the equipment, writing information in a storage built in the equipment, and other similar purposes. The equipment has a casing which includes a battery containing section. An opening is formed through the bottom of the battery containing section in the deepest portion of the latter, while conductive terminal members are provided on a printed circuit board which is mounted in the housing and are so positioned as to face the opening. When a cover closing the battery containing section is removed, the connector of the instrument may be inserted in the battery containing section. Contact pins provided on the connector are movable into and out of contact with the conductive terminal members on the printed circuit board via the slot.
