The present invention relates to a locking arrangement for a terminal
device of a telecommunication system. To improve the operating
reliability of the terminal device, the attachment and locking of the
structural elements changeable by the user to the rest of the device
structure is improved by a locking device which consists of a solid piece
(100) to be fitted into the terminal device in the different places of
the frame part of which one has formed separate spring-like locking
elements, each of which functions as a locking device of some structural
element of this kind of the terminal device. The first spring-like
locking element (20) may e.g. be adapted to lock the accumulator of the
terminal device to the accumulator space reserved for it, and the second
locking element (40) to lock the smart card of the terminal device to the
space reserved for it in the terminal device. In the same locking piece
there may also be locking elements (30, 31) for locking the accumulator
cover in place.
