Abstract
A clamp structure clamps superimposed circuit boards to a support plate portion of a rangefinder case in a still camera. The clamp structure includes first and second support arms spaced in confronting relation from each other by a distance greater than the thicknesses of the superimposed circuit boards and the support plate portion. The first and second support arms are disposed in sandwiching relation to the circuit boards and the support plate portion. A rod is inserted in a space defined between the second support arm and the lowermost circuit board which faces the second support arm while the first support arm is being held against the uppermost circuit board which faces the first support arm. With the rod inserted in the space, the circuit boards are fastened to the support plate portion between the first and second support arms under the resiliency of either an elastic member which is placed between the first support arm and the uppermost circuit board or the resiliency of the first and second support arms themselves.
