Abstract

A moving unit includes a housing, a rotary unit to which a rod part is attached, a spring that generates a torque when the rod part is tilted down or tilted up about a rotation axis on the side on which a base portion of the rod part is located, and a torque adjustment unit that is capable of adjusting a torque by deforming the spring. The torque adjustment unit includes a spring deforming portion that deforms the spring in a direction in which the spring is wound up and a spring fixing portion that keeps a torque constant by coming into contact with the spring deforming portion and fixing the spring deforming portion in place.
