Benefits of technology

This patented technology allows for easy removal of batteries from electronic devices like TVs without damaging them during maintenance work on their housings. It involves attaching a special material called a soft lining onto top of the battery's case inside the casing. These materials have small holes near its ends where they are attached securely by being tightened around it when installed properly.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patented text relates to damage caused during maintenance procedures on electronic devices due to their usage over time. These issues are particularly challenged with older models where they were replaced after being used once again without replacing them properly. Additionally, there have been attempts at create solutions involving more affordably replaceable spare parts rather than requiring an entire machine altogether.

Abstract

A battery restraint apparatus for electronic devices includes a flexible, resilient substrate having opposite, elongated end portions. An elongated aperture is formed in the substrate adjacent each end portion. The substrate has elastic memory that allows it to be flexed and bent and to thereafter resiliently recover to its original shape. The battery restraint apparatus is configured to be removably secured to an electronic device and snugly overlie a battery compartment opening thereof.
