When moved in the direction of the arrow, the locking convex main body part 86 of the fixed guide part 18 interferes with the third component side surface 98C of the fitting main body part 20, as in the case of the first fitting part 106 described above. Elastic displacement in the Y direction. In other words, the locking convex body portion 86 is in a state where an elastic force is applied to the side opposite to the wall portion 14 in the Y direction. When the fitting main body part 20 is moved (sliding) in the direction of the arrow in the figure, the locking convex main body part 86 enters into the second outer recessed part 146 using elastic force, so that the second outer recessed part 146 and The locking convex main body portion 86 is engaged. Thereby, when the claw body part 78 is inserted (engaged) into the second outer sliding guide part 140, displacement of the fitting body part 20 and thus the holding device 10 in the X direction can be restricted. The second outer fitting portion 124 is located at a position corresponding to the third side surface 98C that is tilted at a predetermined angle different from the second side surface 98B in the direction opposite to the wall 14 with respect to the first side surface 98A. 10(c), when the locking convex main body portion 86 is engaged with the second outer recess 146, the first locking portion 111 and the second inner locking portion The imaging device 12 is rotated in a direction different from the state in which it is locked by the locking part 127 (specifically, a direction rotated by a predetermined angle different from the state in which it is locked by the second inner locking part 127 about the Z direction). (movement in the X, Y, and Z directions is restricted) (see also FIG. 10(d)).

Similar to the first recess 118, an end 148 of the second outer recess 146 on the wall 14 side is formed in an R shape. This makes it possible to smoothly move the fitting main body 20 along the X direction by applying a predetermined load or more to disengage the second outer recess 146 and the locking convex main body 86. The locking convex body portion 86 can be moved from within the second outer recess 146.

<Actions and effects of the first embodiment>
Next, the operation and effects of the first embodiment will be explained.

As shown in FIG. 1, this embodiment includes a device holding section 16, a fixed guide section 18, and a fitting main body section 20 (see FIG. 3). The fitting main body section 20 includes a fitting section 42 that fits into the fixed guide section 18 attached to the wall section 14, and is coupled to the device holding section 16. Therefore, the device holding section 16 that holds the imaging device 12 is fixed to the wall section 14 via the fitting main body section 20 and the fixed guide section 18. Thereby, the imaging device 12 can be easily held on the wall portion 14 (fixed portion).

Further, the fitting part 42 has a first sliding guide part 110 and a first locking part 111. The first sliding guide section 110 allows the fitting body section 20 to slide in one direction relative to the fixed guide section 18, so that the fitting section 42 and, by extension, the device holding section 16 can be moved relative to the wall section 14. The position can be adjusted by sliding it in one direction. In addition, the first locking portion 111 locks on the fixed guide portion 18 at a predetermined position when the fitting main body portion 20 is slid along the first sliding guide portion 110. It is possible to prevent the portion 42 and, by extension, the device holding portion 16 from accidentally sliding with respect to the fixed guide portion 18. Thereby, adjustment of the fixing position and stable fixing can be achieved at the same time.

Furthermore, the fitting part 42 has a second inner sliding guide part 126, a second inner locking part 127, a second outer sliding guide part 140, and a second outer locking part 141. . The second inner sliding guide part 126 and the second outer sliding guide part 140 move the fitting main body part 20 with respect to the fixed guide part 18 along a direction different from the sliding direction by the first sliding guide part 110. Since the fitting part 42 and, in turn, the device holding part 16 are slidable relative to the wall part 14 in a direction different from one direction, the position can be adjusted. Further, the second inner locking portion 127 and the second outer locking portion 141 are configured to allow the fitting main body portion 20 to slide along the second inner sliding guide portion 126 or the second outer sliding guide portion 140. Since it is locked to the fixed guide part 18 at a predetermined position, it is possible to prevent the fitting part 42 and, by extension, the device holding part 16 from sliding inadvertently with respect to the fixed guide part 18. . Thereby, the adjustment range of the fixing position is further expanded, and stable fixing can be achieved.

Furthermore, since the device holding section 16 has a back plate section 24 provided so as to cover the imaging device 12, the fixed guide section 18, and the fitting main body section 20 when viewed in a predetermined direction, It looks cleaner when viewed from the direction. Thereby, the appearance design can be improved.
