ABSTRACT:
An electronic appliance housing is arranged by a cover with a locking groove, an operation portion with a locking portion fitted to this locking groove, and a housing to which the cover is attached. This cover is slidably mounted on the housing. Both the locking groove of the cover and a locking portion have portions inclined with respect to the cover, for instance, such a portion whose sectional shape is a parallelogram. The operation portion has a portion slid along a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the cover. With this sliding portion, the locking portion is slidably entered/derived into/from the locking groove. When the locking portion is fitted into the locking groove such that the cover is mounted on the housing, the cover is fixed so as not to be dropped out. The operation portion is attached to a portion of the housing, and has such a structure that this operation portion is moved downwardly by depressing the housing from the upper direction. When the cover is mounted on the housing and the operation portion is depressed downwardly under locking state by the operation portion, the locking portion fitted to the locking groove of the cover is also moved downwardly. At this time, a wedge effect is produced by abut force exerted between the locking portion and an inclined edge located opposite to the locking groove. The cover is slid along the removing direction in response to force produced by this wedge effect.
