Electronic device
An electronic device comprises an upper housing, a lower housing, and a battery. The lower housing is engaged with the upper housing. A bottom wall of the lower housing is partially recessed to form a thin battery receiving portion. The thin battery receiving portion can give way to pressure caused by a swelling and or exploding battery.
1. An electronic device, comprising:
an upper housing;
a battery; and
a lower housing engaged with the upper housing, a portion of the bottom wall of the lower housing which forms a battery receiving portion is made thinner relative to the rest of the bottom wall;
wherein the bottom of the battery receiving portion defines a plurality of slots for splitting open to release pressure when the battery overheats.
2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the plurality of slots are parallel with each other.
3. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the electronic device is a cell phone.
4. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the battery is a lithium-ion battery.
5. An electronic device, comprising:
an upper housing;
a lower housing engaged with the upper housing to form a receiving space, a bottom wall of the lower housing defining a plurality of slots for splitting open to release pressure when the battery overheats; and
a battery received in the receiving space.
6. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein a portion of the bottom wall of the lower housing forms a battery receiving portion for receiving the battery which is made thinner relative to the rest of the bottom wall, the plurality of slots are defined in the bottom of the battery receiving portion.
7. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the plurality of slots are parallel with each other.
8. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the electronic device is a cell phone.
9. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the battery is a lithium-ion battery.
