Sponge SP is affixed to the inner surface of the side 12T, and the component 50 is supported by supporting the component mounted on the printed circuit board 51.

  After replacement of the component 50, the pressing member 60 is rotated around the shaft portion 44 so that the first end portion 63 again approaches the claw portion 30, and the first end portion 63 is engaged with the claw portion 30. Thereby, the pressing member 60 is attached to the frame 10F. In this way, the support portion 40 rotatably supports the pressing member 60 so that the first end portion 63 can move between the engagement position where the first end portion 63 is engaged with the claw portion 30 and the separation position where the first end portion 63 is detached. Thus, by defining the position of the second end portion 64 and rotating the presser member 60, the moving direction of the first end portion 63 that moves between the engagement position and the disengagement position, the first at the time of engagement or disengagement. The position and posture of the end 63 can be regulated to a certain level.

  For example, when the movement direction, position, and posture of the first end portion 63 when engaging or disengaging the claw portion 30 are not restricted, a large load may be applied to the claw portion 30 depending on the direction, position, and posture. is there. Thereby, durability of the nail | claw part 30 falls, or there exists a possibility that it may deform | transform and break beyond an elastic limit. For example, when the presser member 60 is inserted and attached between two claw portions, the movement direction, posture, and position of the presser member 60 when engaging the claw portion are not restricted, and the same problem occurs. There is a risk. In addition, the nail portion may be damaged depending on the skill level of the operator. In the present embodiment, the moving direction, posture, and position of the first end 63 when engaging and disengaging the claw portion 30 are regulated to be constant. For this reason, the position, shape, size, and the like of the claw portion 30 can be designed so that a large load is not applied to the claw portion 30 in consideration of the movement direction of the first end portion 63 that is constantly regulated in this way. Thereby, the load to the nail | claw part 30 is reduced and durability fall and damage can be prevented.

  Next, attachment and removal of the pressing member 60 will be described in detail. 10A and 10B are partial enlarged views of FIG. In a state where the pressing member 60 is engaged with the claw portion 30 and the support portion 40, the movement of the first end portion 63 in the VD direction is allowed by elastic deformation of the claw portion 30 as shown in FIG. 10A. However, as shown in FIG. 10B, the movement of the second end portion 64 in the VD direction is restricted by the protruding piece portion 64b. This is because the protrusion 64b is set to a thickness that is difficult to elastically deform. Also, as shown in FIG. 10B, the movement of the second end portion 64 in the HD direction is allowed by elastic deformation of the claw portion 64a. However, as shown in FIG. 10A, the movement of the first end portion 63 in the HD direction is restricted by the claw portion 30.

  On the other hand, the rotation of the second end portion 64 in the RD direction is allowed as shown in FIG. 10B, and the rotation of the first end portion 63 in the RD direction as shown in FIG. Permissible. Thus, the direction in which the presser member 60 can be detached from the claw portion 30 is regulated to be constant. Similarly, by engaging the second end portion 64 with the support portion 40, the direction in which the presser member 60 is engaged with the claw portion 30 is also limited to a certain level. For this reason, when the presser member 60 is removed from the frame 10F, an excessive load is prevented from being applied to the claw portion 30 during the attachment. The VD direction is a direction perpendicular to the inner surface of the side 12T, the HD direction is a direction parallel to the inner surface of the side 12T, and the RD direction is a direction around the axis AX of the shaft portion 44.

  FIG. 11 is a partially enlarged view of FIG. When the first end 63 of the pressing member 60 is detached from the claw portion 30 and the pressing member 60 rises with respect to the side 12T, the claw portion 64a is elastically deformed by pulling the pressing member 60 in the LD direction. The second end portion 64 is detached from the shaft portion 44. In this way, it is possible to remove the pressing member 60 from the frame 10F. The LD direction is the same as the longitudinal direction of the pressing member 60. For this reason, when the presser member 60 is removed, the presser member 60 can be easily removed because the presser member 60 may be pulled in the longitudinal direction of the presser member 60 while being detached from the claw portion 30. Further, when the second end portion 64 is engaged with the support portion 40, the second end portion 64 is attached to the support portion 40 so that the shaft portion 44 is inserted between the claw portion 64a and the protruding piece portion 64b. Press. As a result, the claw portion 64 a is elastically deformed, the claw portion 64 a and the projecting piece portion 64 b sandwich the shaft portion 44, and the second end portion 64 engages with the support portion 40.

  In this embodiment, the operator can easily rotate the presser member 60 by grasping the handle portion 68. In particular, when the presser member 60 is released from the claw portion 30, the presser member 60 can be easily released. This also improves the replacement workability of the component 50.

  In this embodiment, the pressing member 60 can be attached to the frame 10F without using screws. For this reason, it is unnecessary to attach or remove the screws, and the workability of attaching and removing the presser member 60 to the frame 10F and the workability of replacing the parts 50 are improved.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the computer 1 is equipped with a fan F, a hard disk drive HDD, an ionizer IN, an optical disk drive ODD, and the like. These are provided with a rotating mechanism. For example, the ionizer IN is equipped with a fan for diffusing ions. For this reason, there exists a possibility that these mechanisms may vibrate by rotation. When this vibration is transmitted to the component 50, the microphone 56 may collect the vibration sound. Or there is a possibility of affecting the video of the camera 55. However, in this embodiment, since the pressing member 60 presses the component 50, the component 50 is suppressed from vibrating. Thereby, it is suppressed that the microphone 56 collects a vibration sound. Moreover, the influence on the image of the camera 55 by vibration can also be suppressed. The fan F, the hard disk drive HDD, the ionizer IN, and the optical disk drive ODD are examples of vibration sources, but are not limited thereto.

  A buffer member CU is sandwiched between the frame 10F and the touch panel P. The buffer member CU has a frame shape corresponding to the frame 10F. FIG. 12 is a cross-sectional view around the buffer member CU. The buffer member CU includes a firing member CU1, a double-faced tape CU2 that bonds one surface of the foaming member CU1 and the touch panel P, and a double-sided tape CU3 that bonds the other surface of the foaming member CU1 and the frame 10F. The foaming member CU1 is a sponge. The buffer member CU bonds the frame 10F and the touch panel P together. The transmission of vibration to the component 50 is also suppressed by the buffer member CU. For example, vibration generated when the user touches the touch panel P is absorbed by the buffer member CU. The microphone 56 is prevented from collecting vibration sound. Further, the influence on the video of the camera 55 can be suppressed.

  The preferred embodiment of the present invention has been described in detail above, but the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiment, and various modifications can be made within the scope of the gist of the present invention described in the claims.・ Change is possible.
