6. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein
the positioning protrusion is provided at one end of the cover body in the first direction, and
the one end of the cover body in the first direction has a dimension in the second direction, the dimension being smaller than a dimension in the second direction of another end of the cover body in the first direction.
7. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein
the cover includes
a first guide protrusion provided at one end of the cover body in a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction, the first guide protrusion protruding from the cover body toward the inside of the housing along the second direction, and
a second guide protrusion provided at another end of the cover body in the third direction, the second guide protrusion protruding from the cover body toward the inside of the housing along the second direction,
the positioning member includes
a first groove disposed facing the first guide protrusion in the second direction, the first groove accommodating the first guide protrusion, and
a second groove disposed facing the second guide protrusion in the second direction, the second groove accommodating the second guide protrusion, and
each of the first groove and the second groove extends along the first direction to guide movement of the cover in the first direction.
8. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein
the cover includes
a first guide protrusion provided at one end of the cover body in a third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction, the first guide protrusion protruding from the cover body toward the inside of the housing along the second direction, and
a second guide protrusion provided at another end of the cover body in the third direction, the second guide protrusion protruding from the cover body toward the inside of the housing along the second direction,
the positioning member includes
a first groove disposed facing the first guide protrusion in the second direction, the first groove accommodating the first guide protrusion, and
a second groove disposed facing the second guide protrusion in the second direction, the second groove accommodating the second guide protrusion, and
each of the first groove and the second groove extends along the first direction to guide movement of the cover in the first direction.
9. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein
the cover includes an operation part extending from the cover body toward the outside of the housing along the second direction, and
the operation part is disposed at a position away from a center of the cover body in the third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction.
10. The electronic device according to claim 9 , wherein
the housing includes
a first cutout provided in the first surface and connected to the opening from one side in the first direction with respect to the opening, the first cutout accommodating the operation part when the cover is located at the closed position, and
a second cutout provided in the first surface and connected to the opening from another side in the first direction with respect to the opening, the second cutout accommodating the operation part when the cover is located at the open position.
11. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein
the cover includes an operation part extending from the cover body toward the outside of the housing along the second direction, and
the operation part is disposed at a position away from a center of the cover body in the third direction intersecting the first direction and the second direction.
12. The electronic device according to claim 11 , wherein
the housing includes
a first cutout provided in the first surface and connected to the opening from one side in the first direction with respect to the opening, the first cutout accommodating the operation part when the cover is located at the closed position, and
a second cutout provided in the first surface and connected to the opening from another side in the first direction with respect to the opening, the second cutout accommodating the operation part when the cover is located at the open position.
13. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the cover includes a projection provided at the one end of the cover body in the first direction, the projection protruding from the cover body toward the outside of the housing along the second direction and overlapping a part around the opening of the housing when viewed along the first direction.
