The locking lever 121 is a plate-shaped member, and has an insertion portion 121a located at one end (upper end) and capable of being inserted into the recess 75, and an operation portion 121b located at the other end opposite to the insertion portion 121a. A shaft portion 121c that connects the insertion portion 121a and the operation portion 121b is provided. The insertion portion 121a extends in the left-right direction, and the operation portion 121b and the shaft portion 121c extend in the vertical direction. Therefore, when viewed from the left, the locking lever 121 has an inverted L shape. The insertion portion 121a has a protrusion 121a1 that protrudes rightward (toward the recess 75). The spring 122 connects the shaft portion 121c and the left side surface 70d of the fixed portion case 70, and biases the insertion portion 121a toward the fixed portion case 70. When the insertion portion 121a is inserted into the recess 75, the inside of the recess 75 is filled with the protrusion 121a1. More specifically, the protrusion 121a1 substantially contacts the upper surface and the lower surface of the recess 75. The insertion portion 121a engages with the concave portion 75 when the insertion portion 121a contacts the fixed portion case 70 in the concave portion 75 (hereinafter, fixed state). In the fixed state, the slide portion 11 is prevented from moving downward with respect to the fixed portion case 70.

  As shown in FIG. 8, by pushing the operating portion 121b of the locking lever 121 with a finger or the like, the insertion portion 121a moves to the outside of the recess 75, and the engagement between the insertion portion 121a and the recess 75 is released. (Hereinafter, fixed release state). In the unlocked state, the slide portion 11 can move in the vertical direction with respect to the fixed portion case 70, so that the position of the slide portion 11 with respect to the fixed portion case 70 can be changed. After changing the position, the force applied to the operation portion 121b is released, and the spring 122 brings the insertion portion 121a into contact with the fixed portion case 70 again. As a result, when the insertion portion 121a is inserted into the concave portion 75 at a position different from the concave portion 75 before the position change, the support portion 9 is fixed again.

  An example of using the holder 6 will be described with reference to FIG. 9. The holder 6 is used when work is performed on the terminal portion 2. Specifically, it is used to support the removed communication unit 5 while temporarily removing the communication unit 5 to expose the terminal unit 2. Hereinafter, an example of a procedure when the holder 6 is used will be described.

Specifically, for example, while the suction cup 71 of the holder 6 is pressed against the front surface 30a of the display case 30, the operation knob 72 is operated to bring the suction cup 71 into a vacuum state. As a result, the suction cup 71 is fixed to the display case 30, so that the holder 6 is supported by the main body 4.

  When the holder 6 is supported by the main body 4, the communication unit 5 is removed. Here, since the communication section 5 is supported by the main body 4 by the engagement of the locking claw 52 and the main body locking section 32, by moving the communication section 5 forward, the communication claw 52 and the main body locking section 32 are engaged. The engagement with the stopper 32 is released. The removed communication section 5 is locked to the locking section 8 of the holder 6 so that the communication section 5 is temporarily fixed while exposing the terminal section 2. Specifically, this locking is performed by moving the communication unit 5 from the front of the holder 6 so that the locking claw 52 is inserted into the locking unit 8. As shown in FIG. 9, the position of the communication unit 5 when the communication unit 5 is locked by the locking unit 8 is the exposed position P2 that exposes the terminal unit 2.

  The exposure position P2 can be adjusted in the vertical direction by operating the support portion 9. As described above with reference to FIG. 8, by operating the operation portion 121b of the locking lever 121, it is possible to switch between the fixed state and the fixed release state of the support portion 9 with respect to the fixed portion 7. Since the support portion 9 can move up and down in the fixed release state, the support portion 9 is moved so that the position of the communication portion 5 becomes the appropriate exposure position P2. When the position of the communication unit 5 reaches the appropriate exposure position P2, the fixing release state is switched to the fixing state so as to prevent the vertical movement of the support unit 9.

  Such adjustment of the exposure position P2 limits the movable range of the communication unit 5 narrowly, for example, in order to improve workability at the terminal unit 2 or due to the restriction of the length of the communication line 51. In some cases, this is done to move the communication unit 5 to a possible exposure position P2. Since it is not necessary to change the fixed position of the fixed part 7 by the suction cup 71 in order to change the position of the communication part 5, the holder 6 can adjust the position of the communication part 5 relatively easily.

  Although the suction cup 71 of the holder 6 is attached to the front surface 30a of the display case 30 in the above-described usage example, the suction cup 71 of the holder 6 may be attached to the side surface of the display case 30.
