Abstract
A holder to be placed on a base portion together with a light-emitting module having a board-like shape includes: a body portion; and a claw portion that is provided in the body portion, and locks onto at least a portion of a base portion-side face of the light-emitting module to temporarily hold the light-emitting module when the light-emitting module is to be placed on the base portion. In a state prior to when the holder is placed on the base portion, at least a portion of the claw portion is located closer to the base portion than a base portion-side face of the holder is. The claw portion has a shape that releases the temporary holding of the light-emitting module as a result of the claw portion abutting the base portion when the holder is placed on the base portion in a state where the light-emitting module is temporarily held.
