If the thickness of the fixing fitting 10 on the wall surface 46 side is t1, and the protruding width on the case body 4 side protruding from the fixing portions 66-1 and 66-2 on the back side is t2, there is a relationship of t1≈t2. Thereby, the fixture 10 is installed in the space 84 of the case body 4 on the back side of the fixing portions 66-1 and 66-2. That is, the fixture 10 is overlapped with the fixing portions 66-1 and 66-2 and is included in the case body 4.

図６のＡ、ＢおよびＣは、ケース本体４と固定金具１０を固定する挿抜機構部５２の挿抜を示している。 6A, 6B, and 6C show the insertion / extraction of the insertion / extraction mechanism 52 that fixes the case main body 4 and the fixture 10 to each other.

ケース本体４の装着時、図６のＡに示すように、壁面４６に固定された固定金具１０の各係合凸部５４−１、５４−２、５４−３、５４−４の位置にケース本体４の固定部６６−１、６６−２にある係合孔７０−１、７０−２、７０−３、７０−４を合わせる。この状態を維持しながら、図６のＢに示すように、各係合凸部５４−１、５４−２、５４−３、５４−４に固定部６６−１、６６−２にある係合孔７０−１、７０−２、７０−３、７０−４を挿入する。このとき、ケース本体４を固定金具１０に対して矢印Ｂ１に示す方向に押し当てることにより、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２を圧縮させて後退させ、各係合凸部５４−１、５４−２、５４−３、５４−４を固定部６６−１、６６−２の係合孔７０−１、７０−２、７０−３、７０−４に挿入することができる。つまり、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２は押圧状態となり、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２が持つ弾性の復元力がケース本体４と固定金具１０との間に作用し、両者の強固な保持状態が維持される。 When the case body 4 is mounted, as shown in FIG. 6A, the case is placed at the positions of the engaging projections 54-1, 54-2, 54-3, 54-4 of the fixture 10 fixed to the wall surface 46. The engagement holes 70-1, 70-2, 70-3, 70-4 in the fixing portions 66-1, 66-2 of the main body 4 are aligned. While maintaining this state, as shown in FIG. 6B, the engaging protrusions 54-1, 54-2, 54-3, 54-4 are engaged with the fixing portions 66-1, 66-2. The holes 70-1, 70-2, 70-3, 70-4 are inserted. At this time, the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2 are compressed and retracted by pressing the case body 4 against the fixing bracket 10 in the direction indicated by the arrow B 1, and the respective engaging convex parts 54-1 and 54-2 are compressed. -2, 54-3, 54-4 can be inserted into the engagement holes 70-1, 70-2, 70-3, 70-4 of the fixing portions 66-1, 66-2. That is, the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2 are pressed, and the elastic restoring force of the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2 acts between the case body 4 and the fixture 10, The holding state is maintained.

この挿入状態を維持しながら、図６のＣに示すように、固定金具１０に対してケース本体４を矢印Ｃ１で示す方向にスライドさせると、各係合凸部５４−１、５４−２、５４−３、５４−４の鉤部８０が係合孔７０−１、７０−２、７０−３、７０−４の縁部の背面側に滑り込み、鉤部８０と溝部８２には固定部６６−１、６６−２が挿入され、固定金具１０と固定部６６−１、６６−２が係合する。 When the case main body 4 is slid in the direction indicated by the arrow C1 with respect to the fixing bracket 10 as shown in FIG. 6C while maintaining this insertion state, the engagement protrusions 54-1, 54-2, The flange portions 80 of 54-3 and 54-4 slide into the back side of the edge portions of the engagement holes 70-1, 70-2, 70-3 and 70-4, and the fixing portion 66 is fitted to the flange portion 80 and the groove portion 82. -1, 66-2 are inserted, and the fixture 10 and the fixing portions 66-1, 66-2 are engaged.

このとき、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２はケース本体４側の固定部６６−１、６６−２に押し当てられ、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２の弾性復元力が固定金具１０に作用するとともに、係止孔５６−１、５６−２に嵌まり込む。つまり、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２の弾性復元力により、ケース本体４は固定金具１０の前方向に押し出されるように保持される。固定部６６−１、６６−２が係合凸部５４−１、５４−２、５４−３、５４−４と強固に固定され、ケース本体４が固定金具１０に装着される。 At this time, the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2 are pressed against the fixing portions 66-1 and 66-2 on the case body 4 side, and the elastic restoring force of the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2 is applied to the fixing bracket 10. While acting, it fits into the locking holes 56-1 and 56-2. That is, the case main body 4 is held so as to be pushed forward of the fixing bracket 10 by the elastic restoring force of the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2. The fixing parts 66-1 and 66-2 are firmly fixed to the engaging convex parts 54-1, 54-2, 54-3 and 54-4, and the case main body 4 is attached to the fixing metal fitting 10.

固定金具１０からケース本体４を外すには、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２の弾性復元力に打ち勝つ力をケース本体４に加えることにより、図６のＣに示すように、矢印Ｃ２で示す方向にケース本体４をスライドさせ、図６のＢに示すように、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２と係止孔５６−１、５６−２との係止を矢印Ｂ２に示す方向に移動させて解除すれば、弾性突起７２−１、７２−２の弾性復元力でケース本体４が前方に移動し、固定金具１０からケース本体４を外すことができる。 In order to remove the case main body 4 from the fixture 10, by applying a force to the case main body 4 to overcome the elastic restoring force of the elastic protrusions 72-1, 72-2, as shown by C in FIG. The case body 4 is slid in the direction, and as shown in FIG. 6B, the engagement between the elastic projections 72-1 and 72-2 and the engagement holes 56-1 and 56-2 is moved in the direction indicated by the arrow B2. If released, the case main body 4 moves forward by the elastic restoring force of the elastic protrusions 72-1 and 72-2, and the case main body 4 can be removed from the fixing bracket 10.
