ABSTRACT:
A side lock apparatus comprises a retainer, a rotor rotatably supported on the retainer, a pair of rods which are brought into engagement with positions which are point symmetrical relative to an axial center of the rotor at proximal end portions thereof and are supported in such a manner that distal end portions thereof appear from and disappear into both ends of a lid so as to be brought into engagement with and disengagement from a circumferential edge of an opening, a knob supported on the retainer in such a manner as to be pushed and pulled on and a return spring mounted on the rotor. When the knob is pulled on, since a pusher element of the knob pushes on a bearing portion of the rotor, the rotor rotates against the biasing force of the return spring, whereby the rods are withdrawn into the inside of the lid.
