A member coupling mechanism capable of coupling two members using a necessary tightening force even in a limited space by a small and simple configuration. A member coupling mechanism includes a first member including a member coupling portion having an open apical surface, a second member coupled to the member coupling portion of the first member, an elastic sealing member inserted between the first member and the second member to seal an opening of the apical surface of the member coupling portion, a coupling member that couples the first member and the second member together, and an acting portion that exerts a force on the coupling member.

Member coupling mechanism

A housing is provided with an internal space for accommodating an insert and a cylindrical cap attachment part provided, at the distal end surface thereof, with an opening part communicating with the internal space. An inclined groove that is inclined from the distal end side to the proximal end side of the cap attachment part along the circumferential direction of the cap attachment part is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the cap attachment part. A cap fixing part for attaching a seal cap to the cap attachment part has a cap holding part for holding the outer peripheral surface of the seal cap and an elastic part connected to the cap holding part. The elastic part is provided with a protrusion that is fit into the inclined groove of the outer peripheral surface of the cap attachment part.
