Abstract
A drawer structure of a rod-shaped body, which does not require a complicated inner structure, is provided. In a present preferred embodiment, a structure draws a rod-shaped body out of a housing for housing the rod-shaped body. A guide for holding the rod-shaped body so that the rod-shaped body can be rotated about an axis and slid in the direction of the axis, and an encasing surface which crosses at a predetermined angle to the axis of the rod-shaped body are formed on the housing side. The rod-shaped body has an internal surface facing to the encasing surface, and a cap is formed at a tip of the rod-shaped body so that the internal surface may be a predetermined angle to the axis of the rod-shaped body. When the rod-shaped body is inserted into the guide and the rod-shaped body is rotated from a state where the encasing surface and the internal surface are contacted with each other, the rod-shaped body performs a translatory movement in an axial direction of the guide according to the cam effect.
