ABSTRACT:
There is provided a fastening component and an appliance having a fastening structure, in which the appliance can be readily disassembled without detaching the fastening component from a structural body. The fastening component is constituted of a head disposed at an end of a shaft, a washer disposed at an end portion of the shaft, and made of a shape-memory member being contractible in a radial direction with the application of heat, and a washer holder formed around an outer circumference of the shaft. The washer holder includes a washer container having a diameter smaller than an inner diameter of the washer when contracted due to application of heat, and a washer locker formed adjacently to the washer container at an end of the washer container opposite to the head and having a diameter greater than the inner diameter of the washer when contracted due to the application of heat.
