ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a fixture structure for fixing a rail member to an attaching surface, such as a wall. The frame to be attached to the attaching surface has a first support for supporting a first attaching piece of a rail member. The slide block, attached slidable to the frame, has a second support for supporting a second attaching piece of the rail member. The slide block slides between a supporting position where the second support can support the second attaching piece and a releasing position where the second support releases the second attaching piece. A spring is provided to urge the slide block toward the support position. The slide block has an actuating piece whose position can be changed to a direction different from a direction of the slide block sliding. When the slide block is shifted to the release position, the actuating piece engages with a part of the frame to hold the slide block at that position. When the second attaching piece of the rail member is shifted toward the slide block with the first attaching piece of the rail member held by the first support, the actuating piece changes its position to disengage from the part of the frame based on the engagement with the rail member. This movement allows the slide block to move toward the support position by the urging force of the spring.
