  • Patent number: 11043716
    Abstract: A dual-battery electronic device with a tenon structure comprises a casing, two batteries, and a rotating tenon. The casing has two battery recesses for the two respective batteries. The rotating tenon is rotatably mounted on the casing and disposed between the two battery recesses for selectively engaging at least one of the two batteries. The rotating tenon is capable of being rotated to engage both the batteries, and is capable of being rotated to engage only one of the two batteries. As a result, no matter how the rotating tenon is rotated, the tenon engaging segment fixes at least one of the two batteries in the battery recess. Therefore, when a user replaces one of the two batteries, the rotating tenon keeps engaging the other battery, so as to avoid accidental power off caused by the two batteries falling out together during an inadvertent operation.
