Abstract
A tape measure ( ) is inserted in a concavity ( ) in a transparent member ( )(A). A cardboard base ( ) is inserted so that the belt clip ( ) is led from a cardboard base hole ( ) out to the back side of the cardboard base ( )(B). Next, while inserting the belt clip into the insertion hole of the belt clip engagement member ( ), in the vicinity of the tip portion whereof a belt clip insertion hole ( ) has been provided, the belt clip engagement member ( ) is pushed in between the cardboard base ( ) and the belt clip ( ). The latching piece ( ) advances while pushing the belt clip ( ) up, and, when the latching piece ( ) mates in a hole ( ) in the belt clip, the belt clip which has been pushed up returns to its original state by elastic force, whereupon the belt clip engagement member is attached in the prescribed position (D). By the belt clip engagement member being engaged in the belt clip, the tape measure cannot be removed from the cardboard base.
