The pair of upper and lower coupling pieces 278a are overlapped with the pair of upper and lower coupling grooves 278c formed on the inner side surface of the other side surface portion 278, and the engaging protrusions 278d formed on the coupling groove 278c are formed on the coupling piece 278a. It engages with each of the formed engagement holes 278b. Thereby, the middle case 274 is further put on the camera holder 73 put on the camera module 70.

  The camera substrate 72 is bonded and held on one side of the camera holder 73. In this case, a window portion 276 a corresponding to the camera substrate 72 is formed on the side surface portion 276 of the middle case 274.

(Embodiment 4 of electronic component storage structure)
30 and 31 show Embodiment 4 of the electronic component housing structure of the present invention. As in Embodiment 1 described above, 70 is a camera module, 73 is a camera holder, 374 is a middle case, Reference numeral 375 denotes an upper surface member, and 376 denotes a side member.

  In the third embodiment, as shown in the drawing, the middle case 374 includes a top member 375 made of a resin member that covers the upper surface and the peripheral surface of the camera module 70 and a pair of side members 376 that form a pair of L-shaped planar views made of the resin member. Is done.

  That is, the upper surface of the camera module 70 is covered with an upper surface member 375 made of a resin member, and the peripheral surface of the camera module 70 is covered with a pair of side members 376 that are L-shaped in plan view and are also made of resin members. A pair of upper and lower coupling claws 376 a formed protruding from one end are engaged with coupling grooves 376 b formed on the outer surface of the multi-end of the other side member 376.

  Then, the coupling pieces 375a formed to protrude on both sides of the upper surface member 375 are overlapped with the pair of coupling grooves 376c formed on the upper outer surface of the side member 376, respectively, and the engagement protrusions formed on the coupling groove 376c. 376d is engaged with engagement holes 375b formed in the coupling piece 375a, respectively. Thereby, the middle case 374 further covered with the camera holder 73 covered with the camera module 70 is united.

(Modification)
In the above embodiment, the cellular phone is used. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a PDA, notebook computer, wearable computer, calculator, electronic dictionary, etc., and an electronic component such as a camera on the hinge. It can be used for all provided ones.
Moreover, a straight type portable device or the like may be used.
Further, the camera may be located at the center of the casing instead of the end of the casing.
Further, the shape, material, and the like of the housing, the holding member, and the inner case are arbitrary, and it is needless to say that specific detailed structures and the like can be appropriately changed.
