A cell housing device for a camera has a housing chamber defined in a camera body and capable of housing therein one of two types of cells different in shape and comprising a first housing portion which are defined by first side walls and has a cross section and depth adapted to house therein a second cell relatively greater in diameter and short and a second housing portion which is further extended downwardly from said first housing portion and is defined by second side walls and has a cross section and depth adapted to house therein the lower portion of a first cell which is longer than the second cell. Furthermore the cell housing device is provided with a cover capable of opening or closing the cell insertion opening of said housing chamber, elastic means for pressing against the inserted cell toward the cover, means extended from the inner wall of the housing chamber in the vicinity of the cell insertion opening thereof and capable of temporarily engaging with the edge of the upper end surface of the inserted cell against the biasing forces of the elastic means and means extended inwardly from the lower surface of the cover for releasing the engagement of the inserted cell with the first mentioned means in response to the operation for closing the cover.

A cell housing device capable of selectively housing a first cell relatively longer in length and elongated in the longitudinal direction or a second electric cell relatively greater in diameter and shorter in length, comprising: a housing chamber provided with an opening through which said first or second cell is inserted, and comprising a first housing portion having a depth sufficient to house said first cell and a relatively large cross sectional size corresponding to said second cell and a second housing portion being defined integral with said first housing portion and having a depth and a relatively small cross sectional size sufficient to house therein a portion of said first cell; a cover for closing or opening of said housing chamber; elastic means for biasing said first or second cell inserted into said housing chamber toward to said opening; engaging means which is extended inwardly into said opening of said housing chamber and temporarily engage one edge of the inserted cell against the biasing forces of said elastic means; and disengaging means provided on said cover and capable of releasing said temporarity engagement of said engaging means with said inserted cell in response to the closing action of said cover.
