BATTERY CHARGER

Abstract

A charger (6) includes a housing (204) on which a battery pack (4) is mountable by slidably receiving the battery pack in a first direction (D1); and a plurality of device-side terminals (8), each having a sheet-shaped structure that extends parallel to the first direction and to a second direction (D2) that extends from the battery pack toward the housing, and respectively engaging with battery-side terminals (12) of the battery pack that has been mounted on the housing. The device-side terminals include two charging terminals (56f, 56s, 58f, 58s), which are spaced apart from each other in a third direction (D3) that is orthogonal to the first and second directions, and two signal terminals (62f, 62s). that are disposed on one side (SL) of a space between the two charging terminals that is divided by a virtual plane (P2) that bisects the space in the third direction.
