Abstract
A battery chamber has a battery storage portion for storing an elongated battery, a battery contact spring member which is disposed at one end of the battery storage portion to contact the electrode of the battery, and first and second press-down members which are disposed at least at one side of the battery storage portion to extend toward the battery side and to press down and hold the outer surface of the battery, and are separated by a predetermined interval, so that the first press-down member is located at the battery contact spring member side. The second press-down member is formed with a slanted portion at an edge on the first press-down member side. A reverse voltage prevention mechanism for a battery according to this invention has a battery contact piece member which is arranged in a battery chamber and is formed with bent portions on the two edges of a plus-end battery contact piece, and an insulating member which is formed with opening portions for receiving the bent portions of the battery contact piece member.
