Abstract
There is provided a locking device for an opening and closing body, including: a locking portion; a base; a rotation body that includes a protruding portion on a part of an outer periphery thereof; a locking member; and an elastic member that includes a base portion, and a stopper portion configured to restrict a maximum rotation position of the rotation body in a predetermined direction by abutting against the protruding portion of the rotation body. The stopper portion is disposed in a manner of being biased in a direction opposite to the predetermined direction relative to the base portion. A part of the outer periphery of the rotation body is provided with a sliding contact portion that is configured to come into sliding contact with the elastic member in a process in which the protruding portion approaches the stopper portion.
