Abstract
An engagement structure engages a first part with a second part, and includes a receive portion provided on the first part and an insertion portion provided on the second part. The insertion portion includes an insertion main body protruded in its insertion direction to the receive portion, and protrusions protruded from a side face of the insertion main body and having elasticity to be deformable. The receive portion includes an opening provided with an opening main portion into which the insertion main body is inserted and cutouts into which the protrusions are inserted when the insertion main body is inserted into the opening main portion, and overhangs that are disposed adjacently to the opening main portion to prevent, on a back surface of the receive portion, the protrusions from being pulled out due to elastic restorations of the protrusions that have passed through the cutouts.
