<p>A cradle device according to this invention includes a body (11) and a battery-charging cover (12). An upper end of the battery-charging cover (12) supports a lower end of a portable information terminal (40) to be held on a main mounting surface (11a). The body (11) further includes ribs (30) arranged at a lower end of the main mounting surface (11a). The ribs (30) relatively project from the upper end of the battery-charging cover (12) gradually along with a forward rotation of the battery-charging cover (12) so that the portable information terminal (40) is gradually raised from the upper end of the battery-charging cover (12). In this way, a plug connector (17) of the cradle device is extracted from a receptacle connector (401) of the portable information terminal (40) in a fitting direction without any load in a different direction.</p> |
