Accordingly, even when the door 81A is closed and the door 81B is closed later, or even when the door 81A is kept closed, the backing portion U3 is turned as shown in [Back-turning state] in FIG. The guide groove m1 enters the guide projection n1 while being closed at the same time, and the backing portion U3 is rotated as shown in [backing regular state] in FIG. 8, and the back side 81a and 81b of both the doors 81A and 81B are back. The part except the gap g1 is closed by the backing part U3.
[0016]
Further, when the door 81B is opened while the door 81A is closed, the backing portion U3 is turned while the guide groove m1 is guided by the guide projection n1, and the door 81B is opened. Since it is possible to open the door 81B without giving any, it is extremely convenient for the user, but the configuration is complicated and expensive.
