More Information
Summary:A supported portion of a cover member is rotatably supported by a main support portion of a main body, and is slidable with respect to the main support portion along an extending direction of the cover member. A first joint portion of a link member is rotatably supported by a joint support portion. A second joint portion of the link member is engaged with a joint guide portion slidably along the extending direction. When the cover member is in an open position, a cover engagement portion engages with a main body engagement portion, and the second joint portion engages with a guide base end of the joint guide portion. When the cover member is in the open position, a moment load of the cover member around the second joint portion acts as a force for holding the engagement between the cover engagement portion and the main body engagement portion.
