Further, a horizontal tongue piece 82 facing the lower end of the back panel 3 projects from the side plate 4, and the screw 9 inserted into the horizontal tongue piece 82 is screwed to the nut member 33 of the back panel 3. Therefore, the relative movement of the back panel 3 with respect to the side plate 4 can be accurately performed.

Further, the back panel 3 is constructed by tying panel elements 35 and 36 forming a pair in the front-rear direction, and facing the side plate 4 between inner surfaces near both ends of the panel elements 35 and 36. A mounting bracket 32 for orienting the hook hole 31 is provided internally, and both panel elements 35, 3
6 are connected via the mounting brackets 32, the shape retention of the back panel 3 and the formation of the hook holes 31 can be realized simultaneously by using the mounting brackets 32, and the configuration is wasted. Can be effectively omitted

In addition to the above, the back panel 3 of the present embodiment is
The two panel elements 35 and 36 are tied together with the mounting bracket 32 interposed therebetween, and the panel elements 35 and 36 and the mounting bracket 32 are joined together.
In order to obtain the appropriate shape retention just by spot welding between the parts, compared to the conventional general panel structure, it is possible to make the structure that screws and welded parts are not exposed to the outside as much as possible, The appearance of the back panel 3 can be effectively improved.

The specific configuration of each section is not limited to the illustrated example. For example, it is also effective to positively make the shapes slightly different for each pair of the engagement claw 81 and the hook 31. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, of the horizontal surface 81 </ b> X and the vertical surface 81 </ b> Y serving as a reference when the engagement claw 81 finally contacts and engages with the hook hole 31,
If the horizontal surface 81X is set at a slightly higher position than that of the one engaging claw 81, that of the other engaging claw 81, the horizontal surface 81X of this engaging claw 81 takes precedence at the time of engagement.
Will be engaged with the upper edge 31Z, which is a reference for. For this reason, if this engaging claw 81 is machined with high precision, the accuracy of the other engaging claw 81 is not so required, and especially the engaging claw 81 which is likely to be generated when the bracket 8 is bent.
Can be effectively prevented from occurring at a portion adjacent to the upper end of the back panel 3 and the upper end of the side plate 4 due to the variation of the reference surface 81X. Such a countermeasure is not so required because a slight error rarely affects the appearance of the reference surface 81Y. Also, for the same purpose, the upper edge 31 which is one reference surface of the hook hole 31 is provided.
Even when Z is set at a lower position than the other, the same operation and effect can be obtained. Other configurations can be variously modified without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
