Publication number: 20170051538Abstract: A sliding member locks to hold a tablet type terminal so as not to be removed when the tablet type terminal is connected and releases the lock such that the tablet type terminal is removed in response to first operation. A locking part restricts release of the lock of the sliding member in a state in which the tablet type terminal is connected in response to second operation. A screw protecting member prevents contact with a fixing screw which fixes the locking part in a locked state by the sliding member.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2016Publication date: February 23, 2017Applicant: FUJITSU LIMITEDInventors: Yuta Kobayashi, Sonomasa Kobayashi
