An apparatus includes a switching member which is attached to a main unit of the apparatus; a fixing member which is placed to be movable in a direction along a surface of a supporting portion that is an attaching portion for the switching member, and that contacts with and supports the switching member, which is disposed separately from or integrally with the switching member, and which fixes the switching member; an opening/closing member which has an opening for operating the switching member, and which is openably and closably disposed with respect to the main unit to cover a periphery of the switching member; and a positioning member as defined herein.
1. An apparatus comprising:
a switching member which is attached to a main unit of the apparatus;
a fixing member which is placed to be movable in a direction along a surface of a supporting portion that is an attaching portion for the switching member, and that contacts with and supports the switching member, which is disposed separately from or integrally with the switching member, and which fixes the switching member;
an opening/closing member which has an opening for operating the switching member, and which is openably and closably disposed with respect to the main unit to cover a periphery of the switching member; and
a positioning member which, when the opening/closing member is closed, performs positioning of the fixing member with respect to the opening of the opening/closing member, along a surface of the supporting portion for the switching member, by means of one positioning portion disposed on the fixing member and another positioning portion disposed on the opening/closing member.
2. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the fixing member comprises a restricting portion which restricts movement in a direction perpendicular to a direction along the surface of the supporting portion for the switching member.
3. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the switching member is placed in an end portion of the opening/closing member, the end portion being positioned oppositely to the supporting portion which support the opening/closing member openably and closably with respect to the apparatus.
4. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the switching member is placed in an end portion of the opening/closing member, the end portion being positioned oppositely to the supporting portion which support the opening/closing member openably and closably with respect to the apparatus.
5. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the fixing member is allowed by a gap formed between an outer circumference of the switching member fixed to the fixing member, and an attaching hole disposed in a surface of an attaching portion of the apparatus main unit, to be movable in a direction along the surface.
6. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the fixing member is allowed by a gap formed between an outer circumference of the switching member fixed to the fixing member, and an attaching hole disposed in a surface of an attaching portion of the apparatus main unit, to be movable in a direction along the surface.
7. The apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the fixing member is allowed by a gap formed between an outer circumference of the switching member fixed to the fixing member, and an attaching hole disposed in a surface of an attaching portion of the apparatus main unit, to be movable in a direction along the surface.
8. The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the fixing member is allowed by a gap formed between an outer circumference of the switching member fixed to the fixing member, and an attaching hole disposed in a surface of an attaching portion of the apparatus main unit, to be movable in a direction along the surface.
9. The apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
10. The apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
11. The apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
12. The apparatus according to claim 4 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
13. The apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
14. The apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
15. The apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the positioning member is configured b a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
16. The apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the positioning member is configured by a positioning projection which is disposed on a lower face of the opening/closing member, and a positioning hole which is disposed in an upper face of the fixing member.
