Abstract
A structure is provided to reduce cost for attaching an electronic component and to prevent disengagement of the component. This structure has first locking pieces opposed to each other in a first direction. Second locking pieces are distanced from the first locking pieces in a direction normal to the first direction and project from the component. The attachment portion has first and second locking holes for locking the first and second locking pieces. The first locking hole includes an insertion portion to permit insertion of both first locking pieces, and locks for receiving the first locking pieces from the insertion portion in the second direction. The locks hinder removal of the first locking pieces. The second locking piece contacts an edge of the second locking hole to hinder both first locking pieces from moving into the insertion portion from the locking portions of the first locking hole.
