In addition, with the attachment base 37 attached to the installation portion 39, the attachment base 37 can be easily attached or detached while the split control device 44 facing the space S and the various sensors are connected.

  When the main controller 36 is attached to the attachment base 37 positioned and fixed to the installation portion 39 of the installation member 26, the front surface of the substrate case 57 is opposed to the back surface of the attachment base 37 and the second locking portion 58 is attached. By being inserted into the locking hole 55a of the second locked portion 55 provided in the mounting base 37, the left end portion of the substrate case 57 is restricted from moving leftward, forward / backward, and up / down with respect to the installation member 26. In this state, the mounting base 37 is positioned. At this time, since the second engaging portion 59 of the board case 57 engages with the rear side of the second fixing portion 56 of the mounting base 37, the second fixing tool 60 supported by the second engaging portion 59. By fixing the second engaging portion 59 to the second fixing portion 56, the main controller 36 is positioned and fixed at a predetermined position with respect to the mounting base 37. Then, the wirings H1, H3, H4 drawn out above the closing member 61 are connected to the main controller 36.

  Next, a process of connecting the substrate case 57 and the installation member 26 with the fastening band 71 will be described. The attachment base 37 is attached to the installation portion 39 of the installation member 26, and the guide portion 75 of the attachment base 37 is located on the left side of the holding portion 70 of the installation member 26 with the main controller 36 attached to the attachment base 37. At the same time, a first through hole 69a formed in the connecting portion 69 of the main controller 36 faces the rear of the guide portion 75 (see FIG. 10). Therefore, by inserting the insertion part 72a in the fastening band 71 into the second through hole 70a of the holding part 70 from the right side with the surface of the fastening band 71 facing the back surface of the installation member 26, The insertion portion 72a is guided by the guide surface 75a of the guide portion 75, is inserted through the first through hole 69a, and extends rearward from the connecting portion 69.

  The insertion portion 72a extending rearward from the coupling portion 69 is inserted into the fastening hole 74a of the fastening portion 74, and the insertion portion 72a extending outward from the fastening hole 74a is further pulled to thereby insert the insertion portion 72a. The engaging portion 73 provided in 72a is engaged with the engaged portion in the fastening hole 74a. That is, as shown in FIG. 10, the fastening band 71 is in an annular state in which the insertion portion 72a is inserted into the first through hole 69a and the second through hole 70a, and the insertion portion 72a is removed from the fastening hole 74a. It is difficult to remove. This makes it difficult to remove the main controller 36 (substrate case 57) from the mounting base 37 (installation member 26) unless the fastening band 71 is cut (broken) and pulled out from the through holes 69a, 70a. It is possible to prevent the main controller 36 from being illegally removed and replaced with a fake product. Further, when the main control device 36 cannot be removed from the mounting base 37, the mounting base 37 moves rearward to release the engagement of the first engaging portion 52 with respect to the first fixing portion 41 in the mounting base 37. Since the movement of the mounting base 37 in the direction of releasing the locking of the first locking portion 51 with respect to the first locked portion 40 in the mounting base 37 is restricted, the fastening band 71 is also applied to the mounting base 37. This prevents the installation member 26 from being removed. Therefore, the mounting base 37 can be removed from the installation member 26 to prevent the illegal substrate or the like from being hidden in the space S. In addition, when the fastening band 71 is cut, unless a new fastening band is attached, a fraudulent trace is left due to the absence of the band, so that it is easy to find fraud.

  Furthermore, since the fastening band 71 includes an identification unit that can be read by a dedicated inspection device, even if the fastening band 71 is replaced with an unauthorized fastening band that imitates only the appearance and does not include the identification unit, It is possible to easily determine whether the product is a genuine product.

(About another example)
FIG. 11 shows another embodiment of a portion for connecting the main controller 36 and the installation member 26, and the basic configuration is the same as that of the above embodiment, so the same members and parts as those of the embodiment are shown. Only the different parts will be described with the same reference numerals.

  In another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, a through hole forming portion 76 is provided in a portion corresponding to the guide portion in the mounting base 37, and a third through hole 76 a is formed in the through hole forming portion 76. Then, the insertion portion 72a of the fastening band 71 is engaged with the second through hole 70a of the installation member 26, the third through hole 76a of the mounting base 37, and the first through hole 69a of the main controller 36. The installation member 26, the attachment base 37, and the main control device 36 are connected by the fastening band 71 by engaging the portion 73 with the engaged portion to form an annular shape.

  Further, in a state where the holding portion 70, the through hole forming portion 76 and the connecting portion 69 are connected by the fastening band 71 which is inserted into the first through hole 69a, the second through hole 70a and the third through hole 76a and has an annular shape, There is no substantial gap between the inside of the fastening band 71 and the holding portion 70, the through hole forming portion 76 and the connecting portion 69. That is, the range in which the connecting portion 69 and the through-hole forming portion 76 can move with respect to the holding portion 70 in a state where they are connected by the fastening band 71 is very small, and the main controller 36 is moved away from the mounting base 37 backward. Is set by the fastening band 71 so that the engagement of the second engaging portion 59 with the second fixing portion 56 cannot be released. Therefore, the main controller 36 cannot be moved laterally (rightward) to remove the second locking part 58 from the locking hole 55a of the second locked part 55, and the installation member 26 and the mounting In the state where the main control device 36 is connected to the base 37 with the fastening band 71, it is possible to suppress an illegal act of removing the main control device 36 from the mounting base 37 and the installation member 26.
