`
`Amendments to the Claims:
`
`This listing of claims will replace all prior versions and listings of claims in the application.
`
`Listing of Claims:
`
`1. (Currently Amended) An electronic device comprising:
`
`a battery; and
`
`a housing including a battery compartment for the battery,
`
`wherein the battery has a main surface and a pair of side surfaces perpendicular to the
`
`main surface,
`
`wherein the battery compartment is a recess in a main surface of the housing, the recess
`
`being formed by cutting away an area including a primary end of the housing,
`
`wherein the battery compartment has a main surface and a pair of side surfaces, the
`
`main surface of the battery compartment being configured to face the main surface of the battery
`
`and the side surfaces of the battery compartment being configured to face the respective side
`
`surfaces of the battery when the battery is disposed in the battery compartment,
`
`wherein each of the side surfaces of the battery compartment has a guide rail for guiding
`
`the battery into the battery compartment,
`
`wherein each of the side surfaces of the battery has a guide groove for engaging with a
`
`corresponding guide rail of the battery compartment, and
`
`wherein each of the guide rails has a first end at the primary end of the housing and a
`
`second end at an opposite end of the primary end of the housing and a substantially uniform
`
`width from the first end to the second end, each of the guide rails being substantially linearly
`
`inclined with respect to the main surface of the battery compartment from the first end to the
`
`second end such that a distance between the first end of the guide rail and the main surface of the
`
`battery compartment is greater than a distance between the second end of the guide rail and the
`
`main surface of the battery compartment.
`
`2. (Original) The electronic device according to claim 1,
`
`wherein each of the guide grooves has a first end at the primary end of the housing and
`
`a second end at the opposite end of the primary end of the housing, each of the guide grooves
`
`being inclined with respect to the main surface of the battery from the first end of the guide

`
`

`

`Application No: 15/463,618
`In response to Final Office Action dated August 26, 2019
`
`groove to the second end of the guide groove such that a distance between the first end of the
`
`guide groove and the main surface of the battery is greater than a distance between the second
`
`end of the guide groove and the main surface of the battery, and
`
`wherein an inclination angle of the guide rails is equal to an inclination angle of the
`
`guide grooves.
`
`3. (Original) The electronic device according to claim 2, wherein each of the guide grooves has
`
`a greater width at the first end than at the second end.
`
`4. (Withdrawn) An electronic device comprising:
`
`a battery, and
`
`a housing including a battery compartment for the battery,
`
`wherein the battery has a main surface and a pair of side surfaces perpendicular to the
`
`main surface,
`
`wherein the battery compartment is a recess in a main surface of the housing, the recess
`
`being formed by cutting away an area including a primary end of the housing,
`
`wherein the battery compartment has a main surface and a pair of side surfaces, the
`
`main surface of the battery compartment being configured to face the main surface of the battery
`
`and the side surfaces of the battery compartment being configured to face the respective side
`
`surfaces of the battery when the battery is disposed in the battery compartment,
`
`wherein each of the side surfaces of the battery compartment has a guide groove for
`
`guiding the battery into the battery compartment,
`
`wherein each of the side surfaces of the battery has a guide rail for engaging with a
`
`corresponding guide groove of the battery compartment, and
`
`wherein each of the guide grooves has a first end at the primary end of the housing and
`
`a second end at an opposite end of the primary end of the housing, each of the guide grooves
`
`being inclined with respect to the main surface of the battery compartment from the first end to
`
`the second end
`
`such that a distance between the first end of the guide groove and the main surface of the battery
`
`compartment is greater than a distance between the second end of the guide groove and the main
`
`surface of the battery compartment.
`
`

`

`Application No: 15/463,618
`In response to Final Office Action dated August 26, 2019
`
`5. (Withdrawn) The electronic deVice according to claim 4,
`
`wherein each of the guide rails has a first end at the primary end of the housing and a
`
`second end at the opposite end of the primary end of the housing, each of the guide rails being
`
`inclined with respect to the main surface of the battery from the first end of the guide rail to the
`
`second end of the guide rail such that a distance between the first end of the guide rail and the
`
`main surface of the battery is greater than a distance between the second end of the guide rail and
`
`the main surface of the battery, and
`
`wherein an inclination angle of the guide rails is equal to an inclination angle of the
`
`guide grooves.
`
`6. (Withdrawn) The electronic deVice according to claim 4, wherein each of the guide grooves
`
`has a greater width at the first end than at the second end.
`
`7. (Canceled)
`
`8. (Original)
`
`9. (Withdrawn) A battery configured to be disposed in a battery compartment of an electronic
`
`deVice for supplying electricity to the electronic deVice, the battery comprising:
`
`a main surface, and
`
`a pair of side surfaces perpendicular to the main surface,
`
`wherein each of the side surfaces has a guide rail for guiding the battery into the battery
`
`compartment, and
`
`wherein each of the guide rails has a first end and a second end opposite to the first end,
`
`each of the guide rails being inclined with respect to the main surface from the first end of the
`
`guide rail to the second end of the guide rail such that a distance between the first end of the
`
`guide rail and the main surface is greater than a distance between the second end of the guide rail
`
`and the main surface.
`
`

`

`Application No: 15/463,618
`In response to Final Office Action dated August 26, 2019
`
`10. (New) The electronic device according to claim 1, configured such that, when the battery is
`
`being inserted into the battery compartment, a clearance between the battery and the main
`
`surface of the battery compartment is greater at the first end of the guide rail than at the second
`
`end of the guide rail.
