The cable stopper structure is provided with: a cable (60) arranged along a first path (K1) and a second path (K2) which is connected to an entrance (E1) of the first path and has a ceiling height (H2) higher than that of the first path; a first component (first connector (25)) which is arranged in the first path and to which one end (first terminal (71)) of the cable is connected; and a second component (second connector (35)) which is arranged near an exit (E2) of the first path, to which the other end (second terminal (72)) of the cable is connected, and which is detachable in a direction (front direction (F)) away from the first component. The cable is provided with a folding-back part (second folding-back part (U2)) folded back in the second path, and with, at a position between the folding-back part and the first component, a rigid part (50) which has a rigidity higher than that of the cable and of which the length in a cable pulling direction (N) is longer than that of a ceiling height (H1) of the first path.
