Abstract
A first bracket has a first connector and a plurality of engagement members. The engagement members guide engagement protrusions mentioned later inside to engage with them. A second bracket has a second connector and a plurality of engagement protrusions to be fitted into the engagement members and having a height greater than that of the second connector. The second bracket supports an auxiliary component. During interconnection of the brackets, the engagement protrusions are inserted into the engagement members before the connectors are fitted to one another. The guiding and engagement of the engagement protrusions into and with the engagement members lead to fitting of the connectors to one another and interconnection of the brackets, resulting in the auxiliary component fixed to the first bracket.
