Abstract: Provided are a washer that has a non-rotating function and does not damage an attachment surface at the time of fastening and loosening without increasing the number of components, and a fastening structure that prevents accompanying rotation of a bolt by applying the non-rotating function. Disclosed is a washer 1 is used by being sandwiched between an attachment surface Sa of an object S to be attached and a nut 2 or a bolt head. A first annular protrusion 3 is formed on a side of the attachment surface Sa. An inner shape of the first annular protrusion 3 is larger than an outer shape of the nut 2 or the bolt head.

Abstract: A fastening structure inserts a threaded rod 11a of a bolt 11 through a fixing hole 12a of a to-be-fixed member 12 in a manner such that an end portion of the threaded rod protrudes from the fixing hole, and screwing a machine screw 15 with a proper torque into a nut 14 which is provided on the end portion via a washer 13. The washer has an inclined surface 13c formed on a first side 13b which faces the nut, and has a flat surface formed on a second side 13d. The machine screw is screwed into the nut in a direction such that an axis is orthogonal to the inclined surface 13c. The first side (the inclined surface) and the second side of the washer have a different surface roughness, and the first side has a smaller coefficient of friction than the second side.

Abstract: In the present invention, a main switch circuit (13) is provided between an electric power line (PL), to which voltage outputted from a solar cell (11) is applied, and a battery module (12). A protection circuit (19) turns OFF the main switch circuit (13) to protect the battery module (12) from overcharging when the voltage (VBAT) of the battery module (12) is equal to or greater than an upper limit voltage. The voltage outputted from the solar cell (11) is set so as to be greater than the upper limit voltage to allow the battery module (12) to be charged to the upper limit voltage. When a charge ON command signal has been received, a control unit (18) turns ON only a sub-switch circuit (14) to introduce current from the solar cell (11) into a parallel circuit (15) and to suppress the voltage (VPL) of the power line (PL) to less than the upper limit voltage before turning ON the main switch circuit (13).
