Abstract: A holding portion 12 has a shape which allows relative movement between a pivot portion 21 and the holding portion 12 in the radial direction of the pivot portion 21 such that cover 20 is attachable to, and removable from, a cabinet 11 in the radial direction of the pivot portion 21. An engaging member 50 is movable between a locked position and a unlocked position.

At the unlocked position, the engaging member 50 releases the engagement between the engaging member 50 and the cabinet 11. A stopper 13 restricts the movement of the engaging member 50 from the locked position to the unlocked position.
