摘要

Subject: To provide a battery removably mounted on a motor-assisted bicycle and containing a discharging contact used for feeding a current to an electric motor and a charging contact used for charging the battery by a charger. Solving Means: A discharging terminal to be brought in contact with a discharging contact (75a) of a battery (40) by the dead weight of the battery (40) is provided on a battery containing case. A charging contact (75b) is provided on the battery (40) in such a manner as to face in the direction different from the facing direction of the discharging contact (75a). A charger (100) is configured to insertably/removably mount the battery (40) in the same direction along which the battery (40) is removably inserted in the battery containing case. A charging terminal (121) making electric contact with the charging contact (75b) when the battery (40) is mounted in the charger (100) is provided on the charger (100).
