Abstract: A latch mechanism includes a main body engagement unit arranged in a main body having an opening/closing body that opens/closes, and opening/closing body engagement unit arranged in the opening/closing body to engage with the main body engagement unit when the opening/closing body is closed, in which the main body engagement unit is configured to include a first engagement body having a pair of first top portions displaced in a direction orthogonal to a closing direction of the opening/closing body, the opening/closing body engagement unit is configured to include a second engagement body having a pair of second top portions respectively coming into contact with the pair of first top portions, and the second engagement body has a first slope that applies a force in a direction to open the opening/closing body to the second engagement body in a state where the other first top portion of the pair of first top portions is in contact with the second top portion, when one second top portion of the pair of second t

Abstract: A fastening structure includes a fastening portion. The fastening portion moves in a movement direction between a first position and a second position. The first position and the second position are two positions in which the fastening portion is at least partially inserted into a hole of a to-be-supported portion. The fastening portion in the first position or the second position receives resistance to further movement in a direction in which the fastening portion is moved to the first position or the second position. The fastening portion in the first position unremovably fastens the to-be-supported portion to a support portion. The fastening portion in the second position allows the to-be-supported portion to be removed from the support portion while being supported by the to-be-supported portion.

Abstract: A locking structure for an opening and closing body includes an opening and closing body that is supported to be movable between an open position where an opening formed in a device main body is opened and a closed position where the opening is closed and a push latch device that is disposed in the device main body, locks the opening and closing body at the closed position as an engaging body, which is provided on the opening and closing body to protrude in a pushing direction, pushes in a latch body, and releases locking of the opening and closing body to push out the opening and closing body in an opposite direction to the pushing direction in a case where the engaging body is further pushed in at the closed position. Even in a case where the opening and closing body is pushed at the closed position in the pushing direction, the opening and closing body does not move, and the push latch device is held in a locked state.
