Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The technology disclosed in this specification relates to a stove. [Background technology]

[0002] Conventionally, a stove has been known that includes a housing that houses a gas burner, a front part that is attached to the front part of the housing, and a decorative panel that is attached to the front part (see, for example, Patent Document 1). Specifically, the stove described in Patent Document 1 includes a housing that houses a gas burner, a first front section, and a plate-shaped decorative panel that is arranged to cover the upper area of ​​the first front section from the front. The decorative panel includes a resin body made of a resin material and formed into a plate-like, frame-like shape, and a decorative plate made of a metal material or the like, with the resin body and the decorative plate stacked front to back. The resin body includes a plate portion that overlaps with the decorative plate, and a rearward extending portion that extends rearward from the plate portion and forms a frame shape.

[0003] As is clear from Figure 2 of the document, the resin body described therein is locked to the first front part by a slide locking member. Such a slide locking member has a locking body and an extension part that extends downward from the locking body and is inserted into an elongated hole formed in the rear extension part of the resin body. When the slide lock member is in the locked position, the restricting portion provided on the first front portion restricts the extension portion from moving forward, thereby preventing the decorative panel from being removed forward. When the slide lock member is in the released position, the extension portion is not restricted from moving forward, thereby releasing the lock. This allows the decorative panel to be removed forward.

[0004] Typically, the tip of the extension of such a slide locking member is provided with a claw on both the front and rear sides to prevent it from coming out. In the installation process for installing the locking member in the resin body, the tip of the extension is inserted into the elongated hole, and the locking body is pushed down firmly, causing the claw to slip under the elongated hole, and the slide locking member is slidably installed on the decorative panel. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]

[0005] [Patent Document 1] Patent Publication No. 2021-32530 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0006] The slide locking member described above has anti-detachment claws on both the front and rear sides, so that during the installation process, considerable stress acts on the rearward extending portion where the elongated hole is formed. However, the rearward extending portion described in Patent Document 1 is made of resin, which has a certain degree of elasticity compared to metal, making it less likely for the elongated hole to become distorted. Furthermore, such slide locking members are generally made of resin, so even if the claws are deformed during installation, they tend to return to their original shape.

[0007] However, when a slide locking member is attached to a metal decorative panel, the attachment process may cause distortion of the elongated hole in the decorative panel or deformation of the claw portion to the extent that it cannot return to its original shape. If distortion occurs in the elongated hole or the claw portion is deformed, the claw portion will not be sufficiently engaged with the edge of the elongated hole, and there is a risk that the slide locking member will come off the decorative panel.

[0008] This specification discloses a technology that can attach a slide locking member to a metal decorative panel while preventing distortion of the elongated hole in the decorative panel and deformation of the claw portion of the slide locking member, thereby preventing the slide locking member from coming loose. [Means for solving the problem]

[0009] A stove according to one aspect of the present invention includes a housing that houses a gas burner, a front section that is assembled to the front section of the housing, a metal decorative panel that is attached to the front section, and a resin slide lock member that locks the decorative panel to the front section. The decorative panel has a front wall that covers the front surface of the front section, and an upper wall that extends rearward from an upper edge of the front wall, is positioned above the front section, and has a long hole that extends in the left-right direction. The slide lock member The member has a lock main body portion arranged on the upper wall portion, an extension portion extending downward from the lock main body portion and inserted into the long hole, and a claw portion for preventing removal that protrudes from the extension portion to either the front or rear side, and the front portion has a regulating portion forward of the extension portion that regulates the extension portion from moving forward, and the slide lock member is slidable between a locked position in which the extension portion is located behind the regulating portion and an unlocked position in which the extension portion is not located behind the regulating portion. [Effects of the Invention]

[0010] According to the above configuration, even in the case of a decorative panel made of metal, the slide locking member can be attached while preventing distortion of the elongated hole in the decorative panel and deformation of the claw portion of the slide locking member, thereby preventing the slide locking member from coming loose.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0012] [Outline of the embodiment] First, an outline of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be listed and described.

[0013] (1) A stove according to an embodiment includes a housing that houses a gas burner, a front section that is attached to the front of the housing, a metal decorative panel that is attached to the front section, and a resin slide lock member that locks the decorative panel to the front section. The decorative panel has a front wall that covers the front surface of the front section, and an upper wall that extends rearward from an upper edge of the front wall, is positioned above the front section, and has a long hole that extends in the left-right direction. The slide lock The member has a lock main body portion arranged on the upper wall portion, an extension portion extending downward from the lock main body portion and inserted into the long hole, and a claw portion for preventing removal that protrudes from the extension portion to either the front or rear side, and the front portion has a regulating portion forward of the extension portion that regulates the extension portion from moving forward, and the slide lock member is slidable between a locked position in which the extension portion is located behind the regulating portion and an unlocked position in which the extension portion is not located behind the regulating portion.

[0014] The inventors of the present application discovered that if the claw portions protrude from both the front and rear of the extension portion, when the lock body portion is pushed toward the long hole during the installation process, the front and rear claw portions will hit the edges of the long hole, preventing the extension portion from bending, which will cause distortion in the long hole and deformation of the claw portions.

[0015] According to the stove described in (1) above, the claws protrude from the extensions on either the front or rear side. For example, if the claws protrude forward, when the protruding claws abut the edges of the slots, there is room for the extensions to bend rearward between the rearward-facing surface of the extension and the inner circumferential surface of the slots. Bending of the extensions reduces the force applied to the edges of the slots and the claws during the installation process, preventing distortion of the slots or significant deformation of the claws. The same applies when the claws protrude rearward. Therefore, according to the stove described in (1) above, even if the decorative panel is made of metal, the slide locking member can be attached while preventing distortion of the long hole in the decorative panel and deformation of the claw portion of the slide locking member, thereby preventing the slide locking member from coming loose.

[0016] (2) In the stove described in (1) above, the slide lock member may have two extension portions arranged side by side in the left-right direction, and the claw portion of one of the extension portions may protrude forward, and the claw portion of the other extension portion may protrude rearward.

[0017] According to the stove described in (2) above, even if the engagement between the claw portion of one extension portion and the edge of the long hole becomes loose, the other claw portion is engaged with the edge of the long hole, thereby more reliably preventing the slide lock member from coming loose. Furthermore, since the side from which one claw portion protrudes is opposite to the side from which the other claw portion protrudes, even if the extension bends forward or backward and the engagement of one claw portion becomes loose, the other claw portion will be engaged, making it difficult for the slide lock member to come off.

[0018] (3) In the stove described in (1) or (2) above, the extension portion includes two first arm portions extending downward from the lock main body portion, the two first arm portions being spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction, a connecting portion connecting the tips of the two first arm portions, and a second arm portion extending upward from the connecting portion between the two first arm portions, the second arm portion extending upward with a gap between each of the two first arm portions, and the claw portion may be provided at the tip of the second arm portion.

[0019] According to the stove described in (3) above, the first arm extending from the lock body can be made longer than when a claw is provided at the tip of the first arm, making it easier for the first arm to bend when the extension is inserted into the slot in the decorative panel. Furthermore, because a gap is maintained between the two second arm portions and the two first arm portions, the connection portion is more likely to twist than when no gap is maintained. This allows the second arm to bend significantly in the front-to-rear direction, more reliably suppressing distortion of the slot and deformation of the claw.

[0020] (4) The stove described in any one of (1) to (3) above may have a positioning protrusion protruding downward from the lock body portion, and a positioning hole formed in the upper wall portion into which the positioning protrusion fits when the slide lock member is in the locked position or the released position.

[0021] According to the stove described in (4) above, when the slide lock member is in the locked position, the positioning protrusion fits into the positioning hole, making it difficult for the slide lock member to move to the unlocked position, thereby preventing the slide lock member from moving to the unlocked position and removing the decorative panel for some unexpected reason.Similarly, when the slide lock member is in the unlocked position, the positioning protrusion fits into the positioning hole, making it difficult for the slide lock member to move to the locked position for some unexpected reason, thereby preventing the slide lock member from moving to the locked position for some unexpected reason.

[0022] [Details of the embodiment] The present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the exemplary embodiments, but the present disclosure is not limited to these examples and is defined by the scope of the claims, and is intended to include all modifications within the meaning and scope of the claims.

[0023] <Embodiment 1> The first embodiment will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 11. In the following description, the up-down direction and the left-right direction refer to the up-down direction and the left-right direction shown in Figure 1, and the front-rear direction refers to the front-rear direction shown in Figure 2. In the following description, the reference numerals in the drawings may be omitted for the same components, with some exceptions.

[0024] 1. Overall structure of the built-in stove 1 and 2, the overall configuration of a built-in stove 1 as a stove according to the first embodiment will be described. The built-in stove 1 is a gas stove that is installed in a kitchen cabinet. In the following description, the built-in stove 1 will be simply referred to as stove 1.

[0025] As shown in FIG. 1, the stove 1 includes a housing 11, a top panel 12, three gas burners 13 (left gas burner 13L, right gas burner 13R, rear gas burner 13U), a grill 14, four heat adjustment levers 15 (heat adjustment lever 15A, heat adjustment lever 15B, heat adjustment lever 15C, heat adjustment lever 15D), four ignition buttons 16 (ignition button 16A, ignition button 16B, ignition button 16C, ignition button 16D), two decorative panels 18 (upper right decorative panel 18R, upper left decorative panel 18L), two front sections (upper right front section 17R, upper left front section 17L) shown in FIG. 2, and a slide lock member 28 shown in FIG. 5. The stove 1 includes two slide lock members 28.

[0026] 2, the housing 11 is made up of multiple parts mainly made of metal. The housing 11 is box-shaped and opens upward, and has a bottom wall (not shown), a right wall 11R, a left wall 11L, and a rear wall 11U. The two front portions 17 are each made of resin, and are attached to the front portion of the housing portion 11 via a plurality of metal members. The front portions 17 will be described later.

[0027] 1, the top plate 12 is disposed on the housing part 11. The top plate 12 has a rectangular shape when viewed from above, and has openings for exposing the three gas burners 13 formed therein. The three gas burners 13 are housed in the housing 11 and are partially exposed above the housing 11. The three gas burners 13 are arranged at positions corresponding to openings formed in the top plate 12.

[0028] The grill unit 14 is disposed in the center in the left-right direction on the front surface of the housing unit 11. The grill unit 14 has a box-shaped grill chamber, a grill door for opening and closing the grill chamber, and a grill burner disposed inside the grill chamber. The four heat adjustment levers 15 are arranged two on each side of the grill section 14. Heat adjustment lever 15A is a lever for adjusting the heat of the left gas burner 13L. Heat adjustment lever 15B is a lever for adjusting the heat of the rear gas burner 13U, heat adjustment lever 15C is a lever for adjusting the heat of the grill burner, and heat adjustment lever 15D is a lever for adjusting the heat of the right gas burner 13R.

[0029] An ignition button 16 is provided below each heat adjustment lever 15. Ignition button 16A is a button for igniting / extinguishing the left gas burner 13L. Ignition button 16B is a button for igniting / extinguishing the rear gas burner 13U, ignition button 16C is a button for igniting / extinguishing the grill burner, and ignition button 16D is a button for igniting / extinguishing the right gas burner 13R.

[0030] 2. Front section The front portion 17 will now be described with reference to Fig. 3. The upper right front portion 17R and the upper left front portion 17L have substantially the same shape, so the upper right front portion 17R will be described here as an example. The upper right front portion 17R has a rectangular frame-shaped front main body portion 50 and a panel support portion 51 that is integrally provided on the upper surface of the front main body portion 50. As shown in Fig. 3, the upper right front portion 17R has a certain thickness in the front-rear direction.

[0031] The front main body 50 has a plurality of openings through which the flame adjustment lever 15 and the ignition button 16 are inserted in the front-rear direction. Two locking projections 52 extending downward and spaced apart in the left-right direction are formed on the underside of the front main body 50. These locking projections 52 are inserted into locking holes 29 (see FIG. 4) formed in the lower wall 21 of the upper right decorative panel 18R, which will be described later.

[0032] The panel support portion 51 supports an upper wall portion 20 (see FIG. 5) of the upper right decorative panel 18R from below. The left and right portions of the panel support portion 51 have different shapes. The left portion has a bottom wall 55, a left wall 56, a right wall 57, a rear wall 58, and a front wall 59, and a partition wall 60 is formed between the left wall 56 and the right wall 57.

[0033] The front wall 59 is cut out in two places to form notches 61. The width of each notch 61 in the left-right direction is wider than the width of an extension portion 41 (see FIG. 6) of a slide lock member 28, which will be described later. The notches 61 are provided so that the two extension portions 41 of the slide lock member 28, which will be described later, can pass through the notches 61 and move in the front-rear direction.

[0034] A portion 62A of the front wall 59 extending leftward from the partition wall 60 and a portion 62B of the front wall 59 extending leftward from the right wall 57 are restricting portions that restrict forward movement of the two extension portions 41 of the slide lock member 28. In the following description, the portion 62A of the front wall 59 extending leftward from the partition wall 60 and the portion 62B of the front wall 59 extending leftward from the right wall 57 are collectively referred to as restricting portions 62. The upper end surface of the restricting portion 62 is lower than the upper end surfaces of other portions of the panel support portion 51. The reason for this is to allow the claw portion 45 formed on the extension portion 41 of the slide lock member 28 to escape (see FIG. 10).

[0035] 3. Upper right decorative panel and upper left decorative panel As shown in Figure 1, the upper right decorative panel 18R is attached to the upper right front portion 17R. The upper left decorative panel 18L is attached to the upper left front portion 17L. These decorative panels 18 are made of metal. The upper right decorative panel 18R and the upper left decorative panel 18L have substantially the same shape, so the upper right decorative panel 18R will be used as an example for explanation here.

[0036] As shown in Figure 4, the upper right decorative panel 18R is formed by bending metal sheet metal, and has a front wall portion 19 that covers the front surface of the upper right front portion 17R, an upper wall portion 20 formed by bending the upper, lower, left and right edges of the front wall portion 19 backward, a lower wall portion 21, a left wall portion 22 and a right wall portion 23.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 5, the front wall portion 19 is formed with an opening 24 through which the heat adjustment lever 15 is inserted from the rear, and an opening 25 through which the ignition button 16 is inserted from the rear. The upper wall portion 20 extends rearward from the upper edge of the front wall portion 19 and is located above the upper right front portion 17R. Two elongated holes 26 spaced apart on the left and right sides, and a positioning hole 27 are formed in the upper wall portion 20. The two elongated holes 26 each extend in the left-right direction and penetrate the upper wall portion 20 in the up-down direction. The elongated holes 26 are holes into which extension portions 41 of a slide locking member 28, which will be described later, are inserted. The positioning hole 27 is formed between the two elongated holes 26. The positioning hole 27 is a hole for positioning the slide locking member 28 in a locked position or an unlocked position, which will be described later.

[0038] 4, two locking holes 29 are formed spaced apart on the left and right sides in the lower wall portion 21. The two locking protrusions 52 of the upper right front portion 17R described above are inserted into these locking holes 29.

[0039] 4. Slide lock member The slide lock member 28 will be described with reference to Fig. 6. The slide lock member 28 is a member for locking the decorative panel 18 to the front portion 17. In the following description, the upper right decorative panel 18R will be used as an example of the decorative panel 18.

[0040] The slide lock member 28 is made of resin and has a generally plate-shaped lock main body 40 disposed on the upper wall portion 20 of the upper right decorative panel 18R, and two extension portions 41 (41R, 41L) extending downward from the lock main body 40. The two extension portions 41 are arranged side by side in the left-right direction.

[0041] 7, the lock main body 40 has a rectangular shape that is long in the left-right direction. When the slide lock member 28 is in a locked position, which will be described later, the elongated hole 26 in the upper wall portion 20 of the upper right decorative panel 18R is entirely covered by the lock main body 40.

[0042] As shown in FIG. 6, the extension portion 41 has two first arm portions 42, a connection portion 43, and a second arm portion 44. The two first arm portions 42 each extend downward from the lower surface of the lock main body portion 40. The two first arm portions 42 are spaced apart from each other in the left-right direction. The connecting portion 43 extends in a rod shape in the left-right direction, and connects the tip ends (in other words, the lower ends) of the two first arm portions 42 together.

[0043] The second arm portion 44 extends upward from the connection portion 43 between the two first arm portions 42. A certain amount of distance D is ensured between the second arm portion 44 and each of the two first arm portions 42. When a certain amount of distance D is ensured between the second arm portion 44 and each of the two first arm portions 42, the connection portion 43 is more likely to twist than when no distance D is ensured, and therefore the second arm portion 44 can be greatly deflected in the front-to-rear direction.

[0044] 8A and 8B, a retaining claw portion 45 for preventing the slide lock member 28 from coming off the upper right decorative panel 18R is integrally formed at the tip (i.e., upper end) of the second arm portion 44. The claw portion 45 protrudes from the tip (i.e., upper end) of the second arm portion 44 to either the front side or the rear side.

[0045] The two extension portions 41 have claw portions 45 protruding from different sides. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 8A, the left extension portion 41L has claw portions 45 protruding forward. The claw portions 45 of the left extension portion 41L have tapered surfaces 45A that face diagonally downward and forward. As shown in FIG. 8B, the right extension portion 41R has claw portions 45 protruding rearward. The claw portions 45 of the right extension portion 41R have tapered surfaces 45B that face diagonally downward and rearward.

[0046] 7, two circular positioning protrusions 46 protruding downward are formed spaced apart on the left and right sides between the two extension portions 41 on the underside of the lock main body 40. As will be described in detail later, the left positioning protrusion 46 is a protrusion for positioning the slide lock member 28 at an unlocked position, which will be described later, and the right positioning protrusion 46 is a protrusion for positioning the slide lock member 28 at a locked position, which will be described later. The lower corners of the positioning protrusions 46 are chamfered all around to form a tapered surface.

[0047] 5. Slide lock component installation process The mounting process for mounting the slide lock member 28 on the upper right decorative panel 18R will be described with reference to FIGS. As shown in Figure 9, in the process of attaching the slide lock member 28, the tip of the extension portion 41 is inserted from above into the elongated hole 26 of the upper right decorative panel 18R, and the tapered surface 45A of the claw portion 45 abuts against the edge of the elongated hole 26. In this state, when the worker pushes the slide lock member 28 toward the elongated hole 26, the extension portion 41 bends rearward and the claw portion 45 climbs over the edge of the elongated hole 26. As a result, the claw portion 45 slips under the elongated hole 26, as shown in Figure 10. The state of the extension portion 41 shown in Figure 10 is the state where it is inserted into the elongated hole 26.

[0048] 10, when the claw portion 45 is inserted into the elongated hole 26, the lower surface of the lock main body 40 and the upper surface of the claw portion 45 sandwich the upper wall portion 20 of the upper right decorative panel 18R at a position close to the upper and lower surfaces of the upper wall portion 20. This prevents the slide lock member 28 from coming off.

[0049] 6. Locking and unlocking the upper right decorative panel The following describes how the upper right decorative panel 18R is locked and unlocked by the slide lock member 28. The slide lock member 28 is slidable between an unlocked position shown in Fig. 11A and a locked position shown in Fig. 11B. 10, the positional relationship between the extension portion 41 of the slide lock member 28 and the restricting portion 62 formed on the upper right front portion 17R will be described. When the upper right decorative panel 18R is attached to the upper right front portion 17R, the restricting portion 62 is located forward of the extension portion 41.

[0050] 11A is a position where the entire extension portion 41 is not positioned behind the restricting portion 62 (in other words, a position where the entire extension portion 41 is positioned behind the cutout 61). When the entire extension portion 41 is not positioned behind the restricting portion 62, the extension portion 41 does not come into contact with the restricting portion 62 even if the upper right decorative panel 18R is moved forward, so the upper right decorative panel 18R can be removed forward.

[0051] When the slide lock member 28 is in the unlocked position, the positioning protrusion 46 on the right side of the lock main body 40 fits into the positioning hole 27 in the upper right decorative panel 18R. This prevents the slide lock member 28 from moving from the unlocked position for some unexpected reason. At this time, the left side positioning protrusion 46 fits into the left side elongated hole 26 in the upper right decorative panel 18R.

[0052] 11B is a position where at least a portion of the extension portion 41 of the slide lock member 28 is located behind the restricting portion 62. When at least a portion of the extension portion 41 is located behind the restricting portion 62, even if an attempt is made to move the upper right decorative panel 18R forward, the extension portion 41 abuts against the restricting portion 62, restricting the movement forward. This prevents the upper right decorative panel 18R from coming off forward.

[0053] When the slide lock member 28 is in the locked position, the left positioning protrusion 46 of the lock main body 40 fits into the positioning hole 27 of the upper right decorative panel 18R. This prevents the slide lock member 28 from moving from the locked position for some unexpected reason. At this time, the right positioning protrusion 46 fits into the right elongated hole 26 of the upper right decorative panel 18R.

[0054] 7. Installing and removing the upper right decorative panel The upper right decorative panel 18R is attached with the slide lock member 28 in the unlocked position. To attach the upper right decorative panel 18R, first, the two locking holes 29 in the lower wall portion 21 of the upper right decorative panel 18R are engaged with the two locking protrusions 52 on the upper right front portion 17R. Then, the upper right decorative panel 18R is rotated rearward, starting from the locking protrusions 52. As a result, the front surface of the upper right front portion 17R is covered by the front wall portion 19 of the upper right decorative panel 18R, and the side surfaces of the upper right front portion 17R are covered by the upper wall portion 20, lower wall portion 21, left wall portion 22, and right wall portion 23 of the upper right decorative panel 18R. In this state, the slide lock member 28 is slid to the right and locked.

[0055] To remove the upper right decorative panel 18R from the upper right front portion 17R, the slide lock member 28 is slid to the release position, and then the upper right decorative panel 18R is rotated forward from the locking projection 52 of the upper right front portion 17R as a starting point. This allows the upper right decorative panel 18R to be removed.

[0056] 8. Effects of the embodiment In the stove 1 according to the first embodiment, the claw portion 45 of one extension portion 41 protrudes only to either the front or rear side. Therefore, for example, if the claw portion 45 protrudes only to the front side as shown in FIG. 9, when the slide lock member 28 is pushed toward the slot 26 during the installation process, there is room for the extension portion 41 to bend rearward between the rearward-facing surface of the extension portion 41 and the inner circumferential surface of the slot 26. Bending of the extension portion 41 reduces the force applied to the edge of the slot 26 and the claw portion 45, thereby preventing distortion of the slot 26 or significant deformation of the claw portion 45. The same applies when the claw portion 45 protrudes only to the rear side. Therefore, with the stove 1, even if the upper right decorative panel 18R is made of metal, the slide locking member 28 can be attached while preventing distortion of the elongated hole 26 of the upper right decorative panel 18R and deformation of the claw portion 45 of the slide locking member 28, thereby preventing the slide locking member 28 from coming loose. The same is true for the upper left decorative panel 18L.

[0057] According to stove 1, one slide lock member 28 has two extensions 41, one of which has a claw 45 that protrudes forward, and the other of which has a claw 45 that protrudes rearward. Therefore, even if the engagement between the claw 45 of one of the extensions 41 and the edge of slot 26 becomes loose, the other claw 45 will be engaged with the edge of slot 26, thereby more reliably preventing slide lock member 28 from coming loose. Furthermore, since the side from which one claw portion 45 protrudes and the side from which the other claw portion 45 protrudes are opposite, even if the extension portion 41 bends forward or backward and the engagement of one claw portion 45 becomes loose, the other claw portion 45 is engaged, making it difficult for the slide lock member 28 to come off.

[0058] According to the stove 1, the second arm 44 has a claw 45 at its tip, which allows the first arm 42 to be longer than if the first arm 42 extending from the lock body 40 had a claw 45 at its tip. This makes the first arm 42 more flexible when the extension 41 is inserted into the slot 26 of the upper right decorative panel 18R. Furthermore, because the second arm 44 has a distance D between it and the two first arm 42, the connection 43 is more likely to twist than if the distance D were not provided. This allows the second arm 44 to bend significantly in the front-to-rear direction, more reliably suppressing distortion of the slot 26 and deformation of the claw 45.

[0059] According to stove 1, when slide lock member 28 is in the locked position, positioning protrusion 46 fits into positioning hole 27, making it difficult for slide lock member 28 to move to the unlocked position, thereby preventing slide lock member 28 from moving to the unlocked position and causing upper right decorative panel 18R to come off for some unexpected reason. Similarly, when slide lock member 28 is in the unlocked position, positioning protrusion 46 fits into positioning hole 27, making it difficult for slide lock member 28 to move to the locked position, thereby preventing slide lock member 28 from moving to the locked position for some unexpected reason.

[0060] <Other embodiments> (1) In the above embodiment, an example was given of two extension portions 41 arranged side by side on one slide lock member 28, but the number of extension portions 41 that one slide lock member 28 has may be one, or may be three or more.

[0061] (2) In the above embodiment, an example was given of the case where the claw portions 45 of the two extension portions 41 of one slide lock member 28 protrude from different sides, but the claw portions 45 of the two extension portions 41 may protrude from the same side.

[0062] (3) In the above embodiment, the extending portion 41 has the first arm portion 42, the connecting portion 43, and the second arm portion 44, and the claw portion 45 is provided on the second arm portion 44. In contrast, the extending portion 41 may not have the connecting portion 43 and the second arm portion 44, and the claw portion 45 may be provided on the first arm portion 42.

[0063] (4) In the above embodiment, an example was given of a case where one extension portion 41 has two first arm portions 42, but one extension portion 41 may have only one first arm portion 42, and that one first arm portion 42 may cantilever the connection portion 43.

[0064] (5) In the above embodiment, a positioning protrusion 46 is formed on the slide lock member 28 and a positioning hole 27 is formed on the upper right decorative panel 18R, but these do not necessarily have to be formed. [Explanation of symbols]
